In 2024, Biden signed into law a $105 billion measure designed to end a shortfall in air traffic controllers. In 2025, Trump came in and instead began firing hundreds of them. So you can see how clear it is that Biden is to blame for the shortage now.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

For the umpteenth time: America is less safe & less secure bcuz of who we elected President. Today’s disaster is just the latest evidence. We elected someone who’s at war with the public servants charged with keeping us safe & secure. And America will pay a steep price for it.

Reminder: if you predicted half the things happening now (threatening to take Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal; lawless mass firings; complete defiance of Congressional prerogatives; mass pardons of violent supporters) even a couple of years ago, Serious Thinkers would have dismissed you. /1

The spectacle of Vance and Trump yelling at Zelensky, including chiding him for not acting thankful—while they lied about the war and followed Russian talking points without question. I really am ashamed of my country and especially its leaders.

Gen Z's opinion of Trump has shifted dramatically in just 3 months; a massive negative shift of 37 points from +19 to -18. It's too bad it took implementing Project 2025 instead of just reading it or watching a video about it or listening to a podcast about it. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

How can DJT expect Jordan & Egypt to permanently relocate Palestinians from Gaza when all the US wants to do is deport refugees as undesirables? Not only that, but Egypt & Jordan will house them so nicely (says DJT) that they won’t want to live in Gaza? Of course, none of them can come HERE.
