Trump is doing everything Putin wants him to do: abandoning our nation’s core values, attacking longtime allies, and picking Tulsi Gabbard for a critical national intelligence role. Putin has us right where he wants us, with his puppet as our President. America first? youtu.be/iPXXFfXk5aM?...

"On one hand, there’s the entire foundation of the American rule of law. On the other hand, some hypothetical future president might need some hypothetical bold fearlessness that requires them to commit crimes. Against that twisted logic, Jack Smith — and the American people — never stood a chance."

"When Mexico sends its people, they're sending their best. They're sending firefighters to help solve American problems. They're bringing fire fighting uniforms. They're bringing fire fighting equipment. They're bringing kittens down from trees. And all, I assume, are good people."

Trump’s threats to NATO members add clarity to whether we can expect the U.S. to stay in NATO. We aren’t going to remain in NATO member if we use military force against NATO allies. Trump is a friend to our enemies & a threat to allies. #TFETA *These aren’t insane musings in a second Trump term.

This is a photo of Trump and his supporters in Waco with their hands over their hearts while a pro-January 6 insurrection anthem plays. The screen is playing footage of MAGA insurrectionists attacking the Capitol. This is not normal. No matter who is in the White House.

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files. It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

Anderson, precludes Congress from rejecting electoral votes when they convene on Jan. 6, on the basis of 14th Amendment disqualification.

For crying out loud. NO. His role is to represent the interests of your constituents and district. It’s MIGHTY clear in the Constitution that he swore to protect. The President isn’t a CEO and our government isn’t a business. It’s supposed to serve US—the public.
