I invite those who dismiss questions about the President's mental acuity as Trump Derangement Syndrome to look up his interviews from the 2024 election.
You will be shocked. It's not just the slurred speech or syntax. He answers any question with an ever shrinking range of stock talking points.

5 yrs ago next Tuesday, an American president who lost an election but refused to accept the loss incited a violent attempt to overthrow the election.
Instead of being treated like a pariah, that president was actually voted back into the White House, a much bigger condemnation of us than him.

Stating the obvious. I hate what ICE is being deployed to do, by this administration. There's "obviously" something devious in where ICE is suddenly finding so many thuggish goons to do its bidding.

Every business day you see stories of large manufacturing plant closures, major corporate layoffs, retailers closing hundreds of stores, and restaurant chains closing multiple outlets. Meanwhile, Trump regime says the economy is greatest in history. Do you believe their numbers or the headlines?

If the Epstein files have proven anything, it’s that the justice system isn’t broken; it’s working exactly as it was built to do: to shield the rich and powerful from accountability while victims are buried, ignored, or silenced.

Pam Bondi, you can fuck off. I have a First Amendment right to film ICE. In fact, we’ve built an app for immigrants to lawfully fight back against ICE. We’re raising $ to get the “know your rights” app to those who most need it. Hey Pam, make a contribution. Here’s the GoFundMe link: PAXIS.app.

Complicated analysis for the Cult who thinks other countries pay for the tariffs! 🤷🏻♂️
Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

The reality is Trump just likes saying dumb shit every day, stirring chaos to stay in the spotlight.
It’s less about policy and more about keeping attention locked on him, no matter how wild the statement.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

If ICE can threaten arrest for filming, then journalists, watchdogs, and protesters can all be silenced the same way. You don’t have freedom of the press if recording police is treated as terrorism. #holdfast

America needs an Attorney General who:
1) will read a law,
2) understand what she is reading, and
3) comply with it.
That doesn't seem like too much to ask, does it?
