It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

MAGA Mike Johnson said on Fox News that he would not tolerate such “shameful” behavior on the House floor and that Mr. Green’s attacks violated the body’s rules on decorum.
Funny how only Democrats are supposed to abide by the rules of decorum.

As Russia escalates its brutal assault on Ukraine, innocent civilians are being killed, their homes destroyed, and entire communities left in ruins. Yet, instead of standing firmly with Ukraine, Trump has continuously undermined support for the country, signaling alignment with Putin’s interests.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
