Trump on Jan. 6: "It's the largest crowd I've ever spoken to by twice. The biggest crowd I think, bigger than the inaugurations, bigger than anything, and there was so much love and friendship. It was the most amazing thing. People were crying."

"That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard!" Ben Parker and Lt. Gen. @markhertling.bsky.social (Ret.) react to JD Vance claiming Trump did more than any president to help Ukraine survive Russia's invasion, even as Trump berated Zelensky and pushed Kyiv to give up territory.

.@cheetah.bsky.social: Don't look, and definitely don't jinx it but Congress just might be showing signs of growing a spine. Republicans decided to call it quits after a series of bills and amendments, including one to fund the ballroom and another that would give money to January 6th-ers.

Sen. Kaine: "We're 92 days into a war against Iran, and the administration will not let Congress look at the OLC legal opinion justifying the war…you give us the opinion that there's something in there you don't want us to see." Rubio: "I can certainly inquire as to why it has not been available."
"Just shameful, cowardly, cuckolded behavior from Bill Cassidy, who just two days ago said that the slush fund was designed with explicit intent to be an attack on the democratic foundations of the country." @timmiller.bsky.social slams Cassidy for voting to keep Trump's $1.8B slush fund alive.

Once again, Donald Trump is off on an unhinged rant about the fairness of an election where votes didn't go his way. He cannot accept defeat. We will not allow him to silence the voices of American voters.

The warnings were clear, yet the crowd rushed to hand over power anyway. You were never an ally; you were just a tool to be used. Realize this: every token eventually gets spent by the man at the top. 🎯 #WeCantAffordTrump

If you hate Israel or Jewish people please do me a huge favor and fuck off. That also includes all you idiots who think we are bombing the shit out of Iran just because Israel said so. I really don’t care how many of you unfollow me. I am tired of hearing this nonsense. Sincerely fuck off.
The “imminent threat” argument for striking Iran does not hold up. The administration cannot even keep its story straight about why the attack happened. When the explanation keeps changing, it usually means there was no real justification.

When you've started so many wars you can't remember who you're currently bombing. Can the entire country just start admitting the man should not be in charge of our country let alone have the nuclear codes?

For America 250 we could have had Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, and others preform for our nation’s birthday if we had a Democrat in office. Now Trump is having even D-list celebrities cancel on him because he is turning the event into a party for and about himself.

Appointing a DNI with zero intelligence experience because he’s a great guy socially? The White House actually admitted they trust Trump’s judgment because he’s a quick study of people’s emotional abilities. We are talking about national security, not a reality TV casting call.
