Yeah, I think there’s essentially no going back from the damage Trump has done. Even if he were removed tomorrow, America has proven it can be duped into electing a dangerously unstable person, and you can’t really make long term plans centered on an “ally” like that.

Friends, With a heavy heart, I came here to tell you that a miracle didn't happen... The boy's body was taken out of the debris. He was 17 years old, and had his whole life ahead of him. His classmates are mourning the loss of their friend. Russia killed him. #Kyiv #Ukraine

If the producer of "60 Minutes" wanted to stand up for the First Amendment, he would have, instead of quitting because the Trump Administration was trying to quash the show's First Amendment rights, ran a segment on how the authoritarian Trump administration was trying to illegally censor the show.

I’d like to coin a term for the era that we currently find ourselves in: The Reign of Error. Someone else has probably already come up with this. Screw it, I’m coining it too. #reignoferror .

Your regular reminder that almost everything Trump is getting away with is not because of presidential strength, but because of congressional weakness and judicial deference. The constitutional tools are already there to fix this, but those who can fix it are refusing to do so.

Trump is now saying certain favored companies will be exempt from tariffs. Oh really? In 1773, Britain exempted the East India Trading Company from tariffs on tea. It led to the Boston Tea Party.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

Who could have predicted that a senile, rapey, failed businessman — who has repeatedly declared bankruptcy and who was convicted of felony fraud 34 times and whose business and charity was convicted of fraud — would tank our economy?

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

If you yelled "Lock Her Up" about Hillary's emails But you won't say "Lock Them Up" about Michael Waltz and Pete Hegseth and their Signal chats and Gmail Then you don't actually care about America at all

Saying that Trump will refuse to leave power in 2028 has to be one of the easiest predictions in American politics in years, maybe decades. Still remarkable how little that's understood in the U.S., or abroad.

The guy who kept top-secret documents in his bathroom doesn’t think sharing war plans with reporters is a big deal.

Everyone knows that the correct place to share classified information about military actions is in the bathroom at Mar-a-Lago.

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance. Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

The thing is, we--America--voted for this. We had tons of evidence showing this is what we were going to get, and 70% of voters either decided this is what they want and voted for Trump, or that they're fine with it and either abstained or voted third party. The U.S. is a broken nation.

On the left: Hegseth's message. On the right: the applicable CENTCOM classification guide provisions. This is all very plainly classified at the SECRET level. They all lied. They should all lose their jobs.

Every official in those signal chats has a SCIF room at their office. After ordering service members into harm’s way, Operational Security wasn’t a good enough reason for them to suffer the inconvenience of staying at the office until the mission was completed.

Goldberg said the level of detail in the targeting package that he received via Signal was down to the names of individuals to be killed. That’s the good stuff that includes all kinds of sources and methods and never should have been outside a SCIF. I’d be in prison if I fucked up that bad.

There’s always that one person in the group chat who communicates 50% in emoji. We made that person the National Security Adviser.
