On the day he is gone I suggest that, before bulldozing it, the new ballroom be converted into a temporary holding cell for all his corrupt and contemptuous agency and party heads.

The White House website now looks like a pre-election Donald Trump campaign site. It is surreal. In any other time it would be reported as having been hacked. It would not surprise me to find it has Russian fingerprints on it. Full blown disinformation. See for yourself at wh.gov

Fun fact: There is no such thing as a routine MRI.

Feels like a good day for a throwback to 2017 with Juli Briskman saluting Donald Trump.

Remember: This isn’t his. It’s ours. Just like Congress, the military, the courts, the law, the country itself…all of it. He is a short term tenant put there by a small fraction of us…less than 1/3. He’s at-will.

I am sure all of the 800+ US military top brass attending Pete Hesgeth’s bizarre and unprecedented upcoming meeting will remember that: 1) their oath is to the country and constitution, and that 2) it is unlawful to obey an unlawful order.

The same guy who ordered the White House flag flown at half staff for Charlie Kirk, a hard right podcaster, ordered them prematurely raised for his own inauguration while being flown at half staff for Jimmy Carter.

Nothing changes. Release the Epstein files.

Pritzker: Over the last four years, we have seen homicides drop in half. That’s something the President should pay attention to. I know he doesn’t read but I know he watches TV so perhaps if someone from Fox or Newsmax is here

Pritzker: Trump looked at the cameras and asked for me personally to say, Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago.

Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

Nobody signs a doc they have not read or understand. Congress should NOT SIGN the “big, beautiful bill” until the public, all 330M of us, have had time to read and make sense of what’s in it. This includes SUGGESTED EDITS which is what’s being volleyed right now. It’s our money, lives, and future.

REMINDER:

- Reject the “big, beautiful bill” which will cripple the United States in ways almost unimaginable;

- Release the Epstein files.

Call and/or write your Senators: senate.gov

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

I am old enough to remember Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Powell, WMD, and Mission Accomplished.

Why are no headlines focusing on the unconstitutional and dictatorial nature of this action?

Whether it is attacking Iran or Los Angeles, DJT’s only listening to those that agree with him. He is a danger to all mankind.

We’re at war with Iran, Trump’s gone into hiding, nobody will tell us our objectives, plan or end game, our Sec of Defense is a useless dipshit, our Sec of State lied about it, our DNI loves the leader of Iran’s greatest ally, & tomorrow we’re having a parade for Trump’s bday.

I would hope that somewhere there is a private emergency meeting taking place among our military’s top generals, because the direction this is going will require some tough, brave decision making very, very soon.

Here is Senator Alex Padilla's entire full statement after being detained by Donald Trump and Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security.

Like he said, if they're doing this to a sitting Senator, imagine what they're doing to other people.

Unconscionable.

We the people elected US Senator Alex Padilla. Kristi Noem, DJT loyalist, was appointed.
