The elephant in the room.

It's science.

These Republicans have come to believe that their dishonesty and gas lighting should be ignored. They learned this strategy at the feet of their mentor - DJT.

In a normal world Waltz and Hagseth would be fired for leaking the info and setting up the chat. Gabbard and Ratcliffe would go for possibly misleading Congress yesterday.

Well, okay. You can read the "attack plans" yourself. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

In case you missed it: the Pentagon--that's Hegseth--got warned about using Signal a week ago.

Adding a journalist to a top secret government group chat about dropping bombs *IS* the kind of thing people who aren’t super politically literate can understand and find shocking/notable/disqualifying. Dems should seize on this and never ever let it go. I hope to hear about it in a decade

Trump is relentlessly attacking the courts and specific judges (Boasberg) over on Truth Social. Calling them lunatics who are trying to destroy the country. Meanwhile it is he who is trying to destroy every last vestige of democracy, the rule of law, and the Constitution.

Pretty basic stuff:

This could be key, if it's possible.

My post from X - Democrats in congress: @DNC, @SenSchumer, @RepJeffries - We didn't send you to Washington to roll over and play dead. Business as usual is obviously not working. Bring in new blood, new thinkers and new fighters. Roll up your sleeves and make some big 'outside the box' changes.

Welcome to autocracy. The Republic we have known for the last 240 years is gone. This is going to keep getting worse. Much worse. The courts mean nothing, the law means nothing, Congress is irrelevant. He is a malignant psychopath.

Huge march in New York today protesting the illegal DOGE cuts

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.

Houston, we have a serious leadership problem.

If Dems were unwilling to fight over cabinet nominees and unwilling to fight over the budget/shutdown, it’s safe to assume they’re not going to fight over anything.

We may be cooked but if for some reason democratic norms survive this round of Trumpism it’ll be because of trumpworlds incompetence.
