Worth remembering at all times that Trump is just an asshole.
Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?

TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This is a good thread about Kim Kardashian. Her chances of passing the bar were low considering how she got her legal training. Don't dunk on someone who is trying to do something good in the world.
Everyone is dunking on Kim Kardashian. The truth is the California bar is notoriously hard, the pass rate was only 55%, the pass rate for people who didn‘t go to an accredited law school is way lower, and lots of very smart and dedicated people don’t pass the first time and become good lawyers.

Once again, he's the dumbest MFer out there.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

I haven't been much for the armchair quarterbacking when people say that Democrats can't negotiate, but this would be a cataclysmic failure on every level. The ACA will fail if the subsidies aren't extended, which means millions will lose their health insurance. It will give Trump a win when (1/2)
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

These guys are the biggest assholes. We will probably not get the full reckoning we want or deserve, but scrapping ICE altogether and firing every single one of these guys should be what we are aiming for.
I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

I know it is a small deal and I know it is not the most important thing, but can you even imagine if any previous president just up and decided to knock down the entire East Wing of the White House without (1) Congressional approval, (2) public funding to build the ballroom, . . .

The problem the GOP has now is the same problem they've had since 2008, which is that the GOP version of something approaching universal health care is Romneycare, which is Obamacare. And the only other idea they have is to kick people off of health insurance rolls and shrink Medicaid.
Trump: "He wants to be the healthcare president, as he is for all these other matters. And he's going to do it. We have lots of ideas."

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Yeah, good luck with that. California relaxed the requirements a while ago and then got measles outbreaks. And then we tightened them back up because it turns out that failing to vaccinate your kids is a terrible, terrible idea.

What a bunch of assholes. We're going to have to actually abolish ICE and start over.
UPDATE: Fox News reports that ICE told Kilmar Abrego Garcia they are going to deport him to Uganda on Monday.

A lot of Trump’s appeal comes down to the fact that people whose lives are boring & mediocre because they aren’t particularly bright, talented, or motivated, would very much like to hear a story in which actually it’s someone else’s fault.
