Under pressure from the White House, the Smithsonian censored an exhibit that mentioned Trump’s impeachments, now inaccurately suggesting to visitors that he was never impeached at all (let alone twice). www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...
Smithsonian removes Trump from impeachment exhibit in American History Museum
A temporary placard, on display since 2021, described the president's historic impeachments. Officials said the exhibit was restored to an earlier version following a review of legacy content.

I'm sure all the upper middle class whites in their 50's and 60's who voted for Trump are just THRILLED to hear him say "Akshuwally the stock market doesn't matter." Gonna be great for their 401k's.
Trump: "There could be a little disruption. Look, what I have to do is build a strong country. You can't really watch the stock market. If you look at China, they have a 100 year perspective. We go by quarters. And you can't go by that."

For all practical purposes, we *are* being occupied by a hostile enemy.
I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.

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?

Narrator: Lawler just voted for a budget that requires massive cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and/or Social Security.
Mike Lawler: "I've been very clear: I will not cut Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid."

Call your reps to let them know you disagree with Trump, who is an embarrassment to the USA. Not my president.
NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent.

“It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

“A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.”

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

A Russian puppet committed to empowering Putin and weakening the West would not have acted differently from Trump and Vance today. “Betrayal” does not capture the scope of the evil we saw. Our president is allying the nation with an enemy of democracy and human rights while double-crossing our ally.
