Threatening a journalist to his face. A direct violation of the 1st Amendment.
JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech

TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.

Today, at a press conference, survivors spoke at length and in detail about the abuse they suffered at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who was recently moved to a minimum-security federal prison camp by the Trump administration.
Epstein survivors begged Trump to release their files. He called it a “hoax.”
"President Trump: You have so much influence and power in this situation. Please use [it] to help us."

I am a 70-year-old, happily married man. I have never been with a prostitute in my life. I never wanted to. However, if I ever changed my mind, I would choose the top-ranking whores at CBS. Clearly, they work cheap. Just ask Stephen Colbert.

This afternoon, the Trump administration officially shut down the LGBTQ Youth Specialized Services program within the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The program allowed callers under 25 to speak with counselors trained to support LGBTQ youth, an option that has now been eliminated.

“In the last week, more than 200 veterans have volunteered to attend immigration hearings with Afghans who worked with U.S. forces during the 20-year war in Afghanistan…”
Hundreds of veterans volunteer to attend asylum hearings with Afghans
The effort began after a former Afghan interpreter was detained after his San Diego asylum hearing this month.

A gentle reminder that the VA getting rid of 30,000 people instead of 80,000 people isn’t a win.

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

Arresting 80 year old Vets who fought for our freedom in the exact location where 1500 insurrectionists stormed our democracy and were then pardoned by a felon. I’m trying to wrap my head around this.

WWIII is happening, isn't it? And our President is worried about #1-his vanity parade and #2-hard working people with brown skin.

I suppose all this tripe about Biden's age might be important to know, but it belongs on the History Channel. It's not news. You know what's news? The president deploying the military against US citizens. The Billionaire Bailout Bill. DOGE getting access to our private data. THAT is news.

DOGE was supposed to save $2T, saved $160B, cost $135B in buyouts, and nuked $323B in tax revenue. So basically, we paid $300B for all that chaos.

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men
