So let me get this straight: The President’s plan to lower prices is to roll back some of his own tariffs?

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

Just a reminder that — in the middle of a shutdown — House Republicans are on a paid vacation solely to avoid releasing the Epstein files and lowering your health care costs.

The Republican shutdown means that nonessential federal employees like soldiers and TSA agents aren't being paid anymore, but rest assured that the truly vital work of this administration -- building a Dancing with the Stars ballroom for the dementia-addled president -- still goes on.
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

Do 2024 Trump voters and non-voters see what he’s wrought—what they’ve wrought—in the last 8 months? He still gets too much benefit of the doubt. What will it take? More inflation, job loss, disease and death? Maybe a government shutdown? It's all coming. My latest

Veterans are oversold as a bloc. Some are extremely proud of what they did, others saw it as a job like any other, some would rather forget it. But the vast majority took the oath seriously, and not doing so offends them. I would hammer that Babbitt is getting a military funeral. Hammer it.

Watch out Rubio, Hannity's coming.
If your aim is to dismantle and delegitimize the federal government all of this makes sense
President Trump said on Thursday that he would name the Fox News personality Jeanine Pirro to be the interim U.S. attorney for Washington, hours after he was forced to pull his first choice.

Watch out Rubio, Hannity's coming.
But really, within his shallow heart he feels thet he'd be a good choice, and that maybe, just maybe, the cardinals might choose him. Imagine, a pope winning the nobel peace prize (that would be next).
Take a moment to imagine the sniggering adolescent minds who thought that this was a good idea.
No one thought to say, “Maybe we shouldn’t actually use the official White House account to insult the Church… and amplify the juvenile narcissism of the president.”
