This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We “looked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

“… I just start kissing them, it’s like a magnet. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything… grab ‘em by the pussy."

I'm so tired of our country being held hostage by fucking morons who are letting a billionaire asshole and a convicted felon take everybody's shit and burn it all down

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

pro tip: if your government claims to have no money for children's heathcare but will eagerly waste millions on a gaudy military parade to stroke the fragile ego of a broken-inside president, you just might live in a shithole country

Where is the “25th amendment small group PC” signal group?

“They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” ~The Great Gatsby

This is my friend Pam and her husband Ron. He is a Vietnam veteran. They have both been involved in POW causes for decades. Yesterday, at a hands off rally in St Joseph, Missouri, a man drove around them in his pickup yelling at them. MAGA folks are not patriots. They never were.

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Who could’ve predicted that a con who faced 6 bankruptcies would crash the U.S. markets on purpose? Oh wait…

Trump is hitting the golf course while your retirement savings takes a nose dive.

Finally *liberated* from a strong economy, record stock market, and historically low unemployment.

Trump put 10% tariffs on the Heard and MacDonald Islands... Which is only inhabited by penguins and sea birds... The White House has yet to explain how they plan to collect the tariffs from the penquins...

CNBC ANCHOR: “The market reaction after hours — I’ve never seen anything like it. Worse than the worst-case scenario.”

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied. Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

Fox News Host Jesse Watters: Being friendly to the world is what got us in this mess. We don't need friends…If we have to burn down a few bridges with Denmark to take Greenland. We’re big boys. We dropped a-bomb on Japan and now they are our top ally

Republicans are ALWAYS the victim. Not a very “masculine” trait

Trump just revoked my security clearance… one small problem: I haven’t had one in years. 😂 This isn’t about security—it’s about his fragile ego and petty revenge. My latest piece on Trump’s obsession with punishing his critics adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trumps-lat...

Any member of the military who did what they did on signal would be kicked out or arrested.

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

Today a reporter asked the orange felon if he knew that 4 US troops recently died in Lithuania and he said he didn’t know. But he surely knew that a building in Colorado displayed a picture of him that he hated and spent an entire day posting about it on social media. Asshole.

Whoa. "Now the debate among national security professionals is over whether the secretary was just incompetent or whether he was drunk. That’s how low this has gone. - Seth Moulton, not pulling any punches

I’ve had to make the tough call to cancel my attendance as artist guest of honour at the Fantasy Art Workshop in Milwaukee in June… why? Because it’s no longer safe
