@JamieBonkiewicz@DarAlderson Not just female reporters, although he disproportionately disrespects them. How he speaks to everyone. What kind of a “leader” speaks to people that way? Or for that matter, what kind of person speaks to anyone that way?
Why is this tolerated?
@atrupar@TheTNHoller I’m asking my fellow Americans— how do we allow our “leader“ to speak to anyone this way? I don’t care if you like the question or not, it’s so disgustingly unprofessional, unkind, misogynistic, and rude. No one—NO ONE— should be spoken to this way.
@AaronParnas Wait, haven’t you seen the “official picture” put out by Trump? You know the one that he didn’t realize had the exact same cloud placement and clouds as the one he was making fun of, just altered to make it look good?
Last night was Night 1 of the "Music America: The Songs that Shaped Us" two day concert
Here is Springsteen with @kennychesney doing a great rendition of Woody Guthrie’s "This Land Is Your Land"
This is how you celebrate 250 years of American music!
@GOP__Ls You mean the guy who Congress is allowing to commit financial crimes for life is allowing a convicted fraudster to skip out of prison AND keep his ill gotten gains?
You don’t say…..
#BREAKING: Hayes: “…if Susan Collins is re-elected, remember this, she will continue to rubber stamp the Trump agenda and all that means, and mark my words, there will be MORE chances for her to install right wing justices in the court to help cement conservative control of that institution for another generation. Sam Alito is 76 years old. He’s all but confirmed he’s retiring soon. Clarence Thomas is 77. He’s already threatened to quit at least once. If Republicans hold the Senate, it seems essentially assured that BOTH men will announce their retirement. Donald Trump will replace them with ideological zealots four decades their junior, and Susan Collins will hem and haw about how CONCERNED she is and then she’ll vote to confirm then anyway, as she did with Brett Kavanaugh. So that is what the stakes are in the [Maine] Senate race.”😳
@covie_93 Well he’s GOLFING on the weekend, so he’s too busy for weddings.
He’s TWEETING in his waking hours during the week. BUT, he can rage tweet from anywhere so Madison Square Garden gets him attention and a center seat to comfortably complain and idolize himself.
The Arlington Memorial Bridge has connected the Lincoln Memorial to Arlington National Cemetery since 1932. It was built as a symbol of national reunification after the Civil War - a literal bridge between the Union and the Confederacy, between the nation's most visited memorial to its greatest president and the ground where its war dead rest.
The National Capital Planning Commission just approved, 8-1, a triumphal arch to be built at its base.
Trump called it the Greatest Arch of them all. He said the bridge has been "waiting for this structure for over 200 years" - which would mean it was waiting for the arch before the bridge itself was built, and before Washington DC existed in its current form, and roughly 90 years before the Civil War whose reconciliation the bridge commemorates.
The Arc de Triomphe was built to honor soldiers who died fighting for France. The Arch of Constantine commemorated a military victory. The Brandenburg Gate marked the end of a war. Triumphal arches, as an architectural form, exist to honor collective sacrifice or national achievement.
This one will overlook Arlington National Cemetery - where more than 400,000 American service members are buried - and the Lincoln Memorial, and will be named after the man who called American war dead "suckers and losers," who said he preferred soldiers who weren't captured, and who is currently being sued to stop the construction of a ballroom on the White House South Lawn.
The bridge waited 200 years for nothing of the kind. The dead at Arlington did not ask for this.
There’s literally nothing weird about Thomas Matthew Crooks emailing a deputy from Butler, PA before the assassination attempt. It’s not weird that he practiced shooting at the same range Homeland Security used. It’s not weird that the local police and Secret Service spotted Crooks with a rangefinder, photographed him, and texted about him for over an hour and still let him climb the roof with a rifle. It’s not weird that the Secret Service wasn’t flying drones that day, but Crooks was. It’s not weird that Butler was the first Trump rally of the year with Secret Service anti-sniper agents on the roofs. It’s not weird that Crooks’ house looked like a sterile lab with no trash or silverware. And it’s not weird that his body was cremated ten days later before Congress could see it. This is like when people say the CIA was shadowing Oswald before he, and he alone, shot JFK.
@BarbMcQuade@Acosta It’s not lawful, and it will not stand up to legal scrutiny. That’s obvious. But the fact that the ENTIRE Republican Party is okay with giving the most corrupt person in government a free pass to commit financial crime for life is ASTOUNDING.
Breaking NYT:
Trump just pardoned Stephen E. Buyer, a former Republican representative from Indiana who was convicted of insider trading in 2023. https://t.co/k4fOt4Zi1A
@shannonrwatts And Susan Collins wrings her hands and twists her pearls and then backs whomever Trump and the regime tell her to. She needs to GO.
IDGAF, Shannon. That’s between him and his wife. At least they were grown women he was texting, not children like the regime in place now.
