🧵Let’s get real. While we all know 🍊💩 will lie and take credit for all of this, what both Mexico and Canada have announced is what they are already doing. This gives Trump a reason to gloat to his cult that he made these countries capitulate. apnews.com/article/trum...

The side by side of the Trump family reacting to what was essentially a message of loving your neighbor is quite something. (1/3)

There is no such thing as the “Department of Government Efficiency” IT DOES NOT EXIST. First, Trump is not president yet. Second, presidents cannot create departments on their own, without Congressional approval. Anyone saying otherwise is LYING — or FAILING at their jobs.

I can’t wait until Trump decides that President Musk is stealing too much of the spotlight and jettisons him The resulting explosion will make the launch of Musk’s rockets seem lilliputian in comparison And it feels like constantly referring to Trump as second banana can only speed up the process

Ben Wikler is a very smart guy and step one, as a prelude to and eventually along side more robust, explicitly pro-Dem messaging/media, has to be having Dems be willing to go on these shows and break some eggs.

WaPo has 7 stories up about Hunter Biden pardon (which would include his alleged lie to Congress about business w/CEFC in 2018, when Biden was no longer VP and not yet running for POTUS), but is not interested in Trump just getting $18M free and clear WHILE POTUS-elect.

Jeffrey Toobin: “Biden’s pardon for his son dishonors the office.“ I am so sick of these fucking talking heads. I am so sick of CNN. I am so sick of these self defeating assholes. Our freedom is on the line and these guys are in-fucking-capable of focusing on what’s at stake. FUCK.

Maddow: That is the behavior on January 6th that Trump is praising and promising to use the pardon power for. So, yeah, tell me all about the scandal of the use of the pardon power.

@potus has better start playing HARDBALL and pardon everyone Trump has said he will come after. Including the entire Justice Department, all Generals and political commentators. Literally wipe the floor clean. Force Trump to renounce all pardons! He’s stupid enough to do it.

Joe Biden would not have pardoned Hunter if anyone else had been elected president. Under the circumstances, he did what any loving father would do. Why anyone is upset is beyond me. After all, these aren’t normal times, right?

A reminder that the orange convicted felon dangled and sold pardons to his biggest loyalists and is planning to pardon the most dangerous criminals, so if you’re upset about President Biden issuing a pardon for his son you can just shut all the way the fuck up.

Oliver has it exactly right. The propositions that Donald Trump is a pathologically lying conspiracy theorist, and that defending him (as the cases of Jennings and many others we know have long illustrated) necessitates mendacity, are provable and proven facts, not tendentious opinions.

Reminder: Liz Cheney, Joe Walsh, and other Republicans/conservatives who oppose Trump are "right-leaning voices." Scott Jennings, Lindsey Graham, and other Republicans/conservatives who support Trump are fascist-leaning voices. Note the difference.

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike. I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it. Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

Writing a new book with conspiracy theories as its primary focus. I’d hoped that the chapter(s) dealing with Trump could all be written in the past tense. Hard to believe that we are going down this path again.

BREAKING As expected, President-elect Trump says he intends to nominate Dr. Jay Bhattacharya as Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This nomination will receive some controversy due to his position on Covid measures but not even close to RFK Jr level controversy.

This is extremely sudden. And odd. Did he learn something about the campaign he supported that caused him to feel, almost overnight, that he needed to distance himself from it? And from Trump? This guy was a True Believer so recently that it is best measured in hours rather than days.

What's interesting here is that Elon and Musk are snake oil salesman and MTG is a snake oil purchaser. You have three stupid people who think they're all Alpha males. They'll steal from everyone including each other and then blame each other for the chaos.
