"Indefensible." "It's a bribe." "Such a stain." Some of President Trump’s staunchest supporters are among the loudest critics of his plan to accept a jet from Qatar for use as Air Force One.

people need to bring this up more about reagan

The NYT and SCOTUS both believe it isn’t “corruption” unless an official is caught accepting a giant bag of cash with literal dollar signs on it *and* saying in front of witnesses “in exchange for this illegal offer of money I will do ____”

The hostages Hamas has could have been released last year but Netanyahu kept spoiling the process. Netanyahu attempted to kill the hostages at every turn, including bombing them while razing the city to the ground. From the start he's had zero intention of rescuing anyone.

Looking for one (1) Democrat to call for Starlink and SpaceX to be defunded and all government agencies off X to punish Musk for the being the biggest promoter of Nazism alive.

“A VIP Seat at Donald Trump’s Crypto Dinner Cost at Least $2 Million” electionlawblog.org?p=149877

Sound Familiar? #FKrump

It’s pretty fucked up that Trump knows he can lie and take bribes because he knows the press won’t use the words “lie” or “bribes.”

So is American major media just going to pretend that Donald Trump and his venal band of brigands didn't just spend the last five years of this space-time continuum daily accusing Joe Biden of taking bribes from a foreign country—something Trump just PUBLICLY did to the tune of $400 MILLION DOLLARS?

There’s no grand strategy. No 3D chess. The president is winging it with the economic instincts of a toddler—impulsively doing, undoing, and redoing moves like it’s a game he doesn’t understand.

Pay close attention here, folks – the real Fake and Dishonest News, FOX NEWS, is being absolutely honest with the world for a change. Fox News’ Charles Gasparino explains the reality of the insane Trump tariffs in a nutshell. Honesty and truth from Fox News. Gasparino will likely be fired.

Hasan Piker detained at the border and questioned for hours over politics. He was asked whether or not he’d interviewed Hamas, Houthis, or Hezbollah members. He was questioned about his opinions on Trump and Israel.

My cover story in the June issue of @thenation.com is a dispatch from one of the few clinics offering abortions in all trimesters. It’s a call to defend all abortions and to trust pregnant people. It’s also, incidentally, my pregnancy announcement: www.thenation.com/article/soci...

I know, I know, it's not wide enough and it's not on fire, but ... You get the idea!

High school students at the Capitol: “Why is [Trump] so orange?” GOP Rep. Brian Jack: “Uh, that’s, you know what, it’s, it’s, it’s your perspective...”

Benjamin Bradley, an enslaved man, was a genius who built an engine for a war ship with his bare hands and scrap metal. He taught himself math and engineering. Mr. Bradley never received credit for his inventions.

It's all a dog and pony show.

Yes, we’re stealing from the poor to give to the wealthy right now. The opposite of a functioning democracy Pray for US 🙏🏼 We are fighting.

WE ARE ALL BORN ATHEISTS, UNTIL SOMEONE LIED TO US.

📌I see this morning that the DNC is beating the shit out of each other, instead of Republicans and the grotesque Trump. This is the thanks we get in the field. Y'll can go fuck yourselves.

CBO made a preliminary estimate that the E&C Medicaid/CHIP/ACA sections would rip health insurance away from 8.6 million people. Well, they just made a preliminary estimate that the ACA sections in W&M would rip health insurance away from another 2.1 million people. That's 10.7 million people.

As a fan of the Strict Scrutiny podcast, I’m looking forward to reading @leahlitman.bsky.social’s new book on the Supreme Court! It’s out today. www.simonandschuster.com/books/Lawles...

Not surprised!

Just randomly noting that the emoluments clause in the Constitution doesn’t mention any form of quid pro quo. The simple act of accepting said gifts, benefits, or titles violates the law.

NEW: Attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia ask Judge Xinis to reject the govt's privilege assertions: "Even as the Government speaks freely about Abrego Garcia in public, in this litigation it insists on secrecy." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Truth.

Putin has only met Zelensky once, in the Normandie talks in Paris in December 2019. Apparently, Putin figured that Zelensky outwitted him so he has refused to see or even talk on the phone with Zeensky ever since. Putin prefers fools, such as Trump & Witkoff.

Bansky.

VOTE THEM OUT! House #GOP just released a draft bill to defund Planned Parenthood and slash Medicaid—putting health care for millions at risk. 1 in 3 women in the U.S. used PP health center. 64% of centers are in medically underserved areas—often the only care option available. #WomensMarch
