Why are politicians & mainstream media not covering Trump's delusional state. He just posted on truth social that Biden was executed and was cloned? Batshit crazy. How can he legally still serve? @amyklobuchar.com @corybooker.com @nbcnews.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com @nytimes.com @altnps.bsky.social

Trump doesn't give a crap about South Africa. But he does care about making white Americans scared of Black people. Racism is his jet fuel.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation
"It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

@mcuban.bsky.social I just read about your generosity to workers when you sell a company. Just so you know, if I were a billionaire, I'd be YOUR kind of billionaire. Oh & if you want to hire a 59 y.o. (in denial she turned 60) witty writer, editor & artist, I'm absolutely available.
