Trying to remember the last chief of US intelligence agencies who publicly advanced a conspiracy theory that the nation's "elite" are plotting to start a nuclear war because they have shelters.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated. The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

There are ZERO riots. I am in downtown Los Angeles. There are live feeds of everything that was here and what went down in Paramount. Dudes on mini bikes making noise and people holding Fuck Ice signs etc. But no violence from protesters. None. Cannot say the same about the opposition.

Trump posted this about an hour ago. More lies. There are no violent, insurrectionist mobs. You can view live streams on YouTube of the LA protests, including the one I recently posted below. There are no lawless riots. No migrant invasion. No migrant riots.

1/ As a white person who has lived in CA for 20+ years can I explain a few basic facts to white people living elsewhere? A Chicano/Mexican accent doesn’t mean you’re undocumented or even an immigrant at all. Mexican flags at protests/events/businesses…it’s like the Irish flag or harp.

Just a reminder that Kash raised money for January 6 rioters, including co-producing a benefit single in which incarcerated rioters sing the national anthem while Trump recites the pledge of allegiance.

This needs to be every city. It needs to be tens and hundreds of thousands of people in each place. It needs to be so overwhelming that people join it like it’s a fucking Wegovy commercial. It needs to be utterly humiliating to Donald Trump. Next Saturday good for everybody ?

This...is...not...honest. This pic is from five years ago and not even in Los Angeles. Immoral opportunists like James Woods and Ted Cruz trade on lies to promote other lies.

This week I spoke with the lone Democratic Commissioner at the FCC, Anna Gomez. Pretty remarkable imo to hear from a regulator trying to sound the alarm on what’s happening at her own agency

Donald Trump is such a lazy, simple-minded child, they are going to try to trick him into doing his job by making intelligence briefings, which he routinely ignores/avoids, look like they are on Fox News. Because the one thing Donald likes to do, almost as much as eating McDonald's, is to watch TV.
