Trump's Sunday night screed about Democrats who are "sick of mind" and "hate our country" is the exact sort of rhetoric that radicalizes people like Boelter to commit acts of violence. But instead of responding to the Hortman assassination by turning down the heat, Trump keeps ramping it up.
MAGA political violence claims more victims

The Tea Party protests in April 2009 had about a third of a million people involved, and the political media treated it like a game changer for the Obama presidency.
The No Kings rallies were AT LEAST ten times bigger than the Tea Party protests. Will the press keep pretending Trump is popular?

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

"No Kings Day" protests turn out millions
Our unofficial estimate is that around 4 million people attended a protest event yesterday. Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.

would love for some journalist to get Netanyahu's take on Trump's understanding of the Holocaust ...
Trump: "I said to [the former hostages], was there any sign of love? Did Hamas show any signs of, like, help or liking you? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? Like what happened in Germany."

When I was in Congress we were constantly told to not call social security a “Ponzi scheme” unless we want to never win another election.
Elon Musk just called social security a “Ponzi scheme.”
But hasn’t touched his contracts with the govt yet

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
