Your Medicaid is cut. Your health insurance is not safe. Your tips are still taxed. You pay the tariffs. There’s no trade deals. No wars have ended. Gas isn’t $2. Eggs aren’t cheaper. There isn’t $10 trillion in investment. The Epstein files are buried.
It’s. All. Lies.
All the time.

1/5 After the #HandsOff protest in Boston, many people left their signs along the fence of the Granary, the cemetery where Paul Revere and Sam Adams are buried, as well as those killed in the Boston Massacre. I walked along and got pictures of many of the signs, though not all.

The first rule of Trumpism is to never apologize or admit wrongdoing. That’s why he’s not firing anyone or even entertaining the idea anybody around him did something wrong.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

My favorite thing about Elon Musk is that he proves money can't buy happiness. Or class, intelligence, friendship, love, purpose, grace, a sense of humor, a clue, taste, likability, expertise, empathy, enlightenment, compassion, respect, morals or whatever is the opposite of profound creepiness

The Zelenskyy meeting was a setup.
Trump has been trying to form a pretext to stop Ukraine aid.
That’s why he said Ukraine “started the war” the other day.
He wanted to say something so outrageous it’d get pushback.
It’s also why TASS was there.

TASS is an acronym for Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union (Телеграфное агентство Советского Союза).
During the Soviet era, it was operated by the KGB. It is run by the FSB. A Russian spy managed to get into the Oval Office meeting between President Trump and President Zelensky.
