The Trump administration is using retribution tactics to divert attention from the backlash surrounding the Epstein files. @ericswalwell.bsky.social joins The Weeknight for his first TV interview since a Trump official referred him for a federal criminal investigation over mortgage fraud.

While the government is shut down,Donald Trump is destroying part of the East Wing of the White House, the people’s House, for his unwanted ballroom. Who is paying for this atrocity?
Part of White House Is Reduced to Rubble. Trump’s Ballroom Will Rise in Its Place.

Ok, so I watched a clip of the disastrous Katie Porter interview.
She brought up some good points on the interviewer’s pickiness, but became unprofessional when she wanted to leave.
We’ve had enough of this crap with trump interviews. We don’t need it from Porter.
Is this her pattern? Good Lord.

I just watched Fareed Zakaria on CNN lay out the reasons China has been making a complete turnaround from previous years of stagnant growth.
That country seems to be making great strides (internationally), while we’re stuck with a president who is petty, irrational, and corrupt.
Sad.

Their threats are intended to scare Americans into silence as they roll over the Constitution.
Congress, SCOTUS, legacy media, large corporations, etc. are complicit whenever they cave to these threats.

FFOTUS is trying to chill free speech by sending troops to American cities and giving top brass their “marching orders”. He and his loyalists are warning us not to protest as they take over all segments of American society.

Today's speech by Donald Trump was not among the most dangerous ever given by a US public official. It was the most dangerous. And it's not even close.
American citizens in American cities are now the enemies of the state who should be "taken out."
But don't call him an authoritarian.

Trump to generals: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

This is the obnoxious (and false) way Trump talks about Portland: “I don’t know how anybody lives there. It’s amazing. It’s anarchy out there.”
We see the pattern over and over: Invent a crisis, fake a solution, then claim victory to stroke his fragile ego.

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?

A fake emergency. A fictional war-ravaged Portland. A pretend organization called Antifa. A lying White House occupant who’s not a real president.

Republicans in Congress: ABC made a business decision based on ratings and input from their viewers and advertisers.
Trump and Carr: No, it was us. We hated him and demanded he be fired.
I kinda have to believe Trump on this one.
