Hey, he’s only the president, how is he supposed to know who he is pardoning
COLLINS: Today you pardoned the founded of Binance. Can you explain why you did that?

TRUMP: Which one was that?

COLLINS: The founder of Binance

TRUMP: I believe we're talking about the same person, because I do pardon a lot of people. I don't know. He was recommended by a lot of people.

I usually can't stand the sound of his voice, and I know Aaron transcribes these clips verbatim, but this one I had to hear for myself. What the actual fuck.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

The president of the United States is shaking down his own government.

Total dictator-style corruption.
Breaking News: President Trump wants $230 million from the Justice Department for investigating him, people familiar with the matter say. Any settlement might ultimately be approved by senior department officials who defended him or those in his orbit. nyti.ms/4hmIi5X

Terror group Hamas never intended to honor the U.S. peace plan. Free Gaza - from Hamas.

What on earth does immigration need chemical weapons & guided missiles for?! Aside from the obvious that they want to use this on us or on people wanting to immigrate.
ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Anyone else noticing that trump calls Hegseth the Secretary of War? We haven't had a Sec of War in 78 years. He was confirmed as Sec of Defense.

One is completely defensive, the other is aggressively offensive (as are hegseth & trump, aggressively offensive)

The man who’s pretending that he’s burning down the universities in order to protect Jewish students:
"No death tax, no estate tax, no going to the banks and borrowing from, in some cases, a fine banker. And in some cases, shylocks and bad people."

The young guy who ambushed those fire fighters was a gun-obsessed Nazi and it’s mostly been a local story since the first coupla days, when his motives were still unknown.
A liberal Minnesota politician was murdered along with her husband and another was shot along with his wife by a right wing anti-abortion psycho and I haven’t seen 1/100th the coverage that Luigi, a man with severely muddled politics, received for shooting a healthcare executive

When Joe Biden referred to "shylocks" in 2014, the ADL admonished him. I look forward to seeing the group similarly criticize President Trump for using the term today.

I'm grateful to @jasonknight.bsky.social, who has sponsored or cosponsored an assault weapons ban every year since 2018, and was key in getting this passed.

At the very same time Fox is criticizing Gavin Newsom for attending a fundraiser for cancer research, Donald Trump is at his country club in NJ hosting a high-dollar fundraiser for himself with fat-cat mega donors while we are on the brink of war..

Someone has gone through and actually run the numbers on molestation crimes against children.

The politicians who commit these crimes are overwhelmingly Republican.

67% of politicians convicted between February 10, 2023 and May 23, 2024 nationwide were Republicans.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.

We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

Chatbots and LLMs are NOT designed to be accurate.

They are literally designed to tell you what you want to hear.

NEVER use them for research or fact checking.
Relying on faulty information from AI chatbots, social media users claimed California Gov. Gavin Newsom had shared photos of military personnel taken in 2021 as if they were from 2025. The chatbots were wrong; the photos are from 2025.
Did Newsom post old photos of troops? AI chatbots were wrong

Departments are just making up & changing laws at this point.
Shouldn’t the NY Times headline note that this new policy breaks the law?

So presidential. This ahole.
How does the president of the United States console a sitting governor whose friend and colleague was savagely assassinated at her home?

Apparently, that's a waste of time.

Sound familiar?

That’s why they’re going after education, museums, books and literally trying to change history … So it’s not familiar and and they can get away with doing it again.
