He didn’t let Vance blow up the deal. That was the plan from the get go. Vance upped the game at just the right moment. No master how Zelensky responded, Trump was ready to characterize it as a reason to leave Ukraine hanging and continue to lick Putin’s boots. For personal profit. Wait and see.

Someone needs to tell Trump that he’s loosing popularity because of Steven Miller. That would give him someone to blame and get rid of Miller at the same time.

And, if the Repubs done negotiate the health care act as they promised they would, they will suffer for lying. Again.

If a check from the government for two grand shows up, everyone with a heart should hand it over to someone who depends upon SNAP.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social I’m so sick of the talking heads on every newscast. Who’s idea was this? I’d bet my fortunes that if someone did a Walter Cronkite style newscast, it would go viral.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Chris - You might point out the negative bias in the press’s accepted use of the word “alien” referring to undocumented people. Stop it.

The only negative comment, as made by an Atlantic editor, is that he promised not to get us into a war with the Middle East. Only a woeful minority cares. This is a foe like no other. Watch his poll numbers skyrocket. Note that his speech courts the military and the Christian Right.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Yes, well, this is such a reasoned letter. Hakeem, time for you to use different tactics. Like, “Donald, this guy is making you look really bad. You are being laughed at all over the World. Is this what you want?” Because that’s all The Don cares about.

From PBS Newshour:

"They never answered Chuck Schumer's core argument that if we shut down the government, Donald Trump will have expanded power to furlough all these nonessential workers, and he will never bring them back,"

@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social I wanted to understand this better, so I googled. This what the West Va paper wrote: CORRECTION: Bill passed by WV lawmakers will not allow doctors to inspect child’s genitals to confirm gender

Everything, absolutely everything Trump is doing is careening the world into WWIII. In a Tesla.

I hope the world is as lucky as the Delta jet - everyone survives and the right wing vanishes.

Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty for her role on Jan. 6 and was sentenced to 60 days in prison, has refused her Trump pardon:

"I pleaded guilty because I was guilty, and accepting a pardon also would serve to contribute to their gaslighting and false narrative." www.bbc.com/news/article...

It’s cool how much of the political media invented an election that definitely did not happen and are basing their coverage of Trump on results he definitely did not get.
