Donald Trump Is Delusional
His latest interview puts to rest the longstanding question of whether he's knowingly lying or detached from reality.

/2 So Elon’s claim of treason necessarily means that (1) levying war against Russia (by being invaded) is the same as levying war against the United States, or (2) Ukraine is America’s enemy.

Ukraine resolution at the UN called Russia an aggressor and demands the full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders.
The United States, Israel, and Russia voted against it.

Just a reminder that what he's talking about is the private information about every American and business, and there are laws against this access. "Transform the way the government works" by doing what? Targeting opponents? Microtargeting political ads so Republicans never lose?
Johnson: "Elon's cracked the code. He's now inside these agencies. He's created these algorithms that are constantly crawling through the data & as he told me in his office, data doesn't lie. We're gonna be able to get the information. We're gonna be able to transform the way federal govt works."

The measles outbreak in Texas is the worst in thirty years, and it’s a DIRECT result of declining vaccine rates thanks to RFK Jr.
Disinformation is eroding public health.
In 2023, measles cases were 20% higher than in 2022. In 2022 they were 18% higher than in 2021.
See the pattern?

Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

This is a good time to remind everyone that this administration hasn't done anything for anyone. It has literally only taken away things we've already paid for and fired and sued people. Oh and the quid pro quo with Adams. That's the extent of what they have done. Kinda nuts.

Again, presidency-ending stuff for anyone from Truman to Obama. Wildly irresponsible while 🇷🇺 is occupying 18% of 🇺🇦. A party that tolerates this from its leader is unfit for ever being in charge of 🇺🇸 national security again.
