This guy was once banned from Twitter by Musk for posting child exploitation photos. He spread the crazy conspiracy that Hillary Clinton & Huma Abedin raped/abused little girls & used their skin as masks. Now he’s invited to the Trump White House. No words. You can’t even do an ‘Imagine if Biden…’

Glad Trump had the chance to waste millions of taxpayer dollars to fly over the Daytona 500 and then ride The Beast on the track as parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee are underwater. Priorities.

NEW: DOJ files a notice of correction indicating that (1) it underestimated the number of USAID employees placed on leave; and (2) misstated that only future contracts were being frozen, when existing contracts were frozen as well. I suspect the judge will not be happy. www.democracydocket.com

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Wasn’t it just a week ago that we were supposed to get a 30-day pause? And now, suddenly, he’s focused on steel and aluminum imports? No one in Canada is surprised. Did anyone actually believe this guy? That his word meant anything? He’s a criminal.

Anybody who is remotely okay with Trump saying the US "will take over" Gaza has fully dehumanized Palestinians. If China said they'll "take over" Alaska what would the reaction be? These are human beings with rights, they're talked about like mosquitos. Arrest the war criminals or humanity is doomed

Gaza doesn't belong to Israel, it doesn't belong to the US & it doesn't belong to the intl community. Gaza belongs to PALESTINIANS. If the US follows through with its imperialist conquest the world should unite and isolate us. We've set dangerous precedents that can't hold for the future of humanity

'AMERICA FIRST' to Trump is apparently warmongering with: - Gaza - Denmark - Greenland - Panama - Mexico - Iran - Venezuela He's a dangerous, pathetic, corrupt 1800s style imperialist. He's not fit to manage an Arby's never mind a country.
