This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

After threatening additional sanctions multiple times over several months, Trump just decided he will just throw a lame excuse out and be done with it. Our foreign policy is an absolute joke and nobody except Israel and Russia can count on us.

Trump says he has no plans to call Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after the targeted shootings: "I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out. I'm not calling. Why would I call him? … The guy doesn't have a clue. He's a mess. So I could be nice and call him, but why waste time?"

RFK Jr. claimed that one of the people he appointed to ACIP, Michael Ross, is a professor at George Washington and at VCU. He hasn’t taught at either for at least 4 years. RFK Jr. is a liar who generates and amplifies disinformation that he feeds to the people of the U.S.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

Rand Paul: "I've never liked the idea of the parade. I grew up in the '70s and '80s, and the only parades I can remember are Soviet parades for the most part or North Korean parades. The parades I remember from our history were different...we never glorified weapons so much...then there is the cost"
