As with his demands of Zelensky regarding Biden and DOJ with election fraud, it seems Trump just wants an announcement of alleged wrongdoing by Comey so that he can be portrayed as corrupt. Weakness of charges are irrelevant. When Comey is acquitted, Trump will blame the judge.

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.

Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.

Both sides!

For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq.

“If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.”

National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC.

A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.

That's the skeleton key to understanding this whole episode: there was no lib backlash to the Sweeney ad. There were a few random online comments. That's it. But they ginned that up into a full-fledged, media-dominating news cycle that has been running for *weeks* now.

I flagged this in April and have been howling it into the void. Trump wants Black & Latino incarcerated U.S. citizens sent to CECOT in El Salvador, Congo, South Sudan. These are the “homegrown” Trump talked about with the Salvadoran PM.

Please. Take this seriously.

When Trump defunds programs created by Congress, he is violating his constitutional duty to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Any CEO would be fired, yet GOP lawmakers shrug.

In Orwell's 1984, when the regime changed course, its propagandists rewrote history to pretend nothing had changed. Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.

And that's what's happening in the United States now, as Trump's propagandists lie about his trade war. This short video exposes the lies.

Read the ICE document for yourself that Karoline Leavitt refused to answer questions about. It says exactly what @AndrewFeinberg said; all it takes is "8 points" on a made-up rubric, and that can be just a tattoo (4 points) and displaying "logos" or "symbols" (4 points).

Wow. Rep. Jake Auchincloss minces no words about Signalgate on Piers Morgan: “Pete Hegseth is lying to the American people, lying to Congress, lying to the military.” “It’s incompetence incarnate…It’s embarrassing & it’s dangerous.”

This is how it’s done.

1/2 Counting active-duty, reserves, and contractors, some 3 million Americans are under direct/indirect authority of DOD.

Every one of those 3 million—EVERY ONE—knows that if he or she had sent real-time info about combat operations on commercial platforms, their careers would be over. And worse.
