Just to recap, the actual president found an AI-generated video of a fake news report depicting a fake announcement about an imaginary healthcare system based on a technology that doesn’t exist and posted it on his official social media account
This was always the funniest conspiracy theory to me — that there are MRI machine-like devices that can cure all known illnesses in seconds, but the government has been hiding them — and Trump just posted an AI generated video of himself announcing they're real. We're cooked!
Trump tonight appears to have pushed the false "medbed" conspiracy theory, which has spread in the far-right internet over the years. www.yahoo.com/news/qanon-c...

What in the feckless fictional fuck is this?
In statement, Hakeem Jeffries has some praise for Adams's record, and says he will "publicly weigh in with respect to the remaining candidates in the Mayor’s race well before the start of early voting.” (That's Oct. 25.)

Here's a thought -- go to Portland and stand in front of the tank

Or resign, you feckless, cowardly loser
The Trump administration’s threat to deploy troops in Portland is unlawful.

Here’s a thought.

Focus on protecting the healthcare of the American people.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

Trump claimed European electricity bills are now “two to three times higher than the US, and our bills are coming way down.” In fact, retail electricity prices in the United States have increased faster than the rate of inflation since 2022, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

And they will tell you they want a two state solution. Seems like that would be closer to reality by, you know, recognizing two states.

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

I wonder what the Venn diagram of ICE agents and domestic abusers looks like.
An ICE officer was “relieved of his duties” and is under investigation after he shoved an Ecuadorean woman whose husband had been arrested and pushed her to the floor at an immigration courthouse in Manhattan, the Department of Homeland Security said on Friday. nyti.ms/46EMKYP
