Musk helped. DOGE helped. Mike Johnson helped. Every Republican who said and did nothing to stop the destruction by Trump. All your names will be dirt like his in history. Hope it was worth it. Fucking traitors to democracy.

The J6 Pipe Bomber stated that the reason he placed the pipe bombs at the DNC & RNC because he believed that the 2020 election was stolen, & no one in Congress was taking it seriously.

It appears the whole Putin “Ukraine tried to kill me with 91 drones last night” was entirely made up. And of course Trump repeated it and said he was mad at Ukraine.
Nightly Russia launched drones and missiles at innocent people.
And tried to Kill Zelensky every day

Trump had another embarrassing Helsinki moment by declaring in his presser with President Zelensky that Putin & Russia want Ukraine to succeed.
How effing dumb does Trump think people are? Does he think everyone is as weak & stupid as he is?
Trump's a Russian asset & that's no longer debatable!

Politicians are now saying the way to fix democracy is to have less of it. Give all the power to one elected person who can do whatever they want until we try to remove them. Cool. That's not worrying at all.

I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.
If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

The president did not provide details about the apparent strike, which NBC News has not independently confirmed.
