Today: Tanks are being moved en masse into DC. Trump is deploying a state national guard over a governor’s objection to police protests. Trump threatened a major donor with “severe consequences” if they support his political opponents. If you’re still wondering what time it is, read this again

Major media are afraid to tell us that Trump is in the process of setting up a dictatorship. They know it — everyone closely following the news knows it — but they fear that telling such a stark truth would seem “partisan” and make them a target. Their failure to sound the alarm endangers us all.

40% of Donald Trump’s entire net worth has been made since he took office in January. What else can you call that, if not corruption?

Anyone want to 3d print a Trump Taco? makerworld.com/en/models/14...

I will go further than Klasfeld & say that a million is HIGHLY ABNORMAL. Have you ever looked at a proposed rule much less comment? I hope many ppl are commenting against the rule, but I think something hinky may be going on. Ppl in the replies have pointed out copy pasta “in support of” comments

I really wish the maga supporters understood the real world damage implementing their ideology causes to the nation

A story of staggering hypocrisy, in two tweets.

Found this in some Pro-Trump propaganda from his press office. Is there anywhere that has an accounting of all the regulations rolled back in his first term and the effects of doing so? I'm not sure if we know the extent of the damage this regulation removal caused.

I just left the Senate floor, where I laid out Trump's real "Art of the Deal." For himself. Here are Donald Trump's 10 most outrageous displays of corruption yet. 🧵

Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: “no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

Since I administered the WH emoluments rules, let me explain why this is forbidden Trump expressed interest in it before it was offered He is going to use & benefit from it a while in office And he's going to keep using it after he leaves! Functionally, it's a gift to him & so it's illegal

Republicans are either for or against states' rights as long as it ensures that the thing that is most likely to harm people is chosen

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Not since Prohibition have so many Americans simultaneously wanted to commit the same crime. My 81 year old mom with a broken hip told me last night that she wanted to commit that crime.

This is most of what the Founders of America were opposed to, what they set up a new government to avoid

Holy fuck, just impeach this motherfucker already

But remember, *you* can only have two dolls and five pencils

Don't know if it's true or not (and I'm certainly not qualified to assess the veracity of it), but I saw a claim with this video that Israel used a tactical nuke on Hodeidah, Yemen today. I don't see it reported anywhere reputable. Real? Fake? AI? Misinterpretation?
