A clearly insane and cognitively diminished President Trump rambled at length about a far-right conspiracy theory in front of the president of South Africa at the White House yesterday. Now here's eight articles about Biden's halting pauses and memory lapses.

If a Democratic president were openly & repeatedly saying that neither the 14th nor the 22nd amendment constrained him, the country would grind to a halt, the NYT & WaPo would have 96-point font front page headline articles, & the Senate impeachment trial would already be underway.
Trump speaking with the troops in Qatar: “As you know we won three elections. And some people want us to do a fourth. I don't know. I'll have to think about that. You saw the new hat?… It says Trump 2028.”

One question to ask: What has Trump done in the first month that will help out the working class voters who moved into his coalition last year?
Bari Weiss’ publication has now turned on DOGE. I may be young but I’ve witnessed enough backlashes to know what one looks like. It’s usually when erstwhile supporters turn on you in a significant number, especially a prominent figure. Jack Murtha switching on Iraq in November 2005 is a good example

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.
Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.
Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

This is what a Nazi billionaire calls “eliminating fraud and waste.”
I just lost my job, along with most of my coworkers, due to the illegal grant freeze.
I worked at an organization that
-helped veterans who have lost a limb
-Assisted elderly and disabled people
-Helped hospitals better treat people who have lost limbs

Reminder: The Constitution says Congress regulates trade. The president imposing tariffs is an abuse of emergency powers.
There is clearly no US national security emergency regarding Canada. Media might not care, weaklings in Congress might want to forfeit their authority, but still, facts matter.

I think it’d be good for some reporters at prominent news outlets to ask people how they feel about Trump literally putting a halt to cancer research. Ask them how that makes America great and such.

Pete Hegseth’s nomination has already passed the committee, and the only step left is a confirmation vote from the full Senate. If we’re going to stop this dangerous nomination, we have to act now. Every call, every email, and every bit of pressure counts: act.indivisible.org/sign/oppose-...
