Trump hung up on a ProPublica reporter after being asked whether his Florida mortgages were similar to those of others he had accused of fraud. 🤔

I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Don Jr receiving a massive loan for his startup from the Pentagon. I guess when there’s so much corruption some things fly under the radar?

I'm sick to my stomach at the murderer visiting the White House.
Covering Jamal Khashoggi's murder was one of the most disturbing things I've worked on. Hearing Trump say he was "extremely controversial" and people "didn't like him" is chilling. Hard to take any other way than he thinks there is moral ambiguity in the murder of a journalist.

Remember that time New York elected a Muslim mayor and MAGA shit their pants saying Sharia law was coming to NYC, and then like a week later Trump gave F-35's to Saudi Arabia, the capital of Wahabbi fundamentalist Islam, where 17 of 19 9/11 hijackers were citizens? Just to open Trump Tower Riyadh?

NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

Tapper: Angus King said standing up to Donald Trump didn't work.

Sanders: Maybe Angus didn't notice the elections on Tuesday. I thought that they worked pretty well.

This is why Tillis fought against the Medicaid expansion back when he was NC Speaker: once good and popular stuff becomes law, as NC’s expansion did in 2023, Republicans take it away at their electoral peril. And now his political career is over bc he dared to warn them.
