Trump: “…an alcoholic’s personality”

Vance: “…a conspiracy theorist for a decade”

Vought: “…right wing absolute zealot”

Musk: “…an avowed ketamine user”

These aren’t the wild opinions of a Twitter troll.

It’s coming from the White House Chief of Staff.

They are who we think they are.

Here’s a sense of where priorities lie.

The White House is “effectively positioning the president to operate [Washington DC’s] public golf properties.” 🤡

trumpcard.gov is live and the million dollar fees are all referred to as “gifts” or “contributions” to an undisclosed party lol

If you have a bank account in your country or use U.S. technology, as most of us do, this will 100% affect you and your loved ones now and well into the foreseeable future. And this is why #Digitalsovereignty should be a goal for every democratic government if they are serious about freedom.

In my opinion the president shouldn't constantly be like "Holy shit did you guys see this?" and repeating a thing he kinda heard on TV. I don't think that should be mostly what the president does.
He issued a correction, proving why he needs to stfu and let the cops do their jobs.

It’s a a goddamned ongoing tragedy, not a reality TV show, primed for him to drop the big reveal.

That is an ornate literary device, bogging down the text, all to make herself the passive victim who things are happening to, rather than an active participant in the life story that she herself is narrating.

Get a therapist and wait to write this book until you’ve worked through your own shit!

Alina Habba was first ruled to be playacting as US Attorney on August 21 (though she had already been playacting at that point since July 1).

So taxpayers have paid for Alina to pretend she's US Attorney for 109 days.

I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

Perfect response to Senators and Representatives pretending they know nothing…are they admitting incompetence or admitting they are liars?
If they pretend they haven’t heard about the story of the day, end the interview right there.

“I’m sorry, Senator, we wanted to get your perspective on this story, but it seems you’re not fully aware of what’s going on.”
