6 shots were fired before the good men with guns could subdue John Hinkley Jr. More guns is not the answer to gun violence. https://t.co/v6cbI7hrJy

Ronald Regan was shot while he was surrounded by armed secret service. I guess he just needed an armed science teacher around

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

Two GOP women - a Trump spokeswoman & daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno - have accused Rep. Max Miller of domestic violence. Has any Republican politician or Twitter pundit called for him to drop out of his race? Please reply so I can see all the receipts thanks.

Democrats need to stop panicking and pointing fingers at each other and start attacking the GOP for allowing Trump to use America like one big ATM for his corrupt family and billionaire buddies. This is simple.

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

Graham Platner was accused of rape and every Democrat tossed him overboard.

Donald Trump was accused of rape multiple times and sexual assault and harassment many more times. Also the whole matter of trying to overturn an election.

Republicans nominated him a second time.

BREAKING: Rumors that Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell is brain dead have been confirmed as no one in their right mind would talk to Scott Jennings for 20 minutes.

"I have a problem with Talarico dating a suborindate".

Firstly, Irma Reyes wasn't a subordinate.

Secondly, Pete Hegseth's second wife was his subordinate, as was his third wife.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”

Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

Doctors say that pertussis kills over 50,000 children a year worldwide. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and brings raccoon penises home for "further study" says kids will be fine if they just bathe in raw sewage. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

@JonLemire @HarrisonsPotato The aftermath..

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This week alone:

DOJ opens an investigation into the woman Trump raped.

The White House is caught steering a $620 million contract to Don Jr.’s firm.

The Pentagon hands out a $10 billion contract after Trump buys stock in the company.

Foreign governments are caught funneling hundreds of millions into a random JPMorgan account tied to Trump’s “Board of Peace” with no oversight.

It’s just Thursday.

The corruption isn’t hidden anymore. It’s happening out in the open.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

This is what Trump's done to the people's house:

A third of it is rubble.

Another third is a cage match.

What a metaphor.

[Reid Hoffman @reidhoffman]

1/ Trump was found liable for sexually assaulting E Jean Carroll, defaming her, and now he’s going after her again.

Trump cannot be allowed to use the full weight and power of the US Government to come after women who speak up, or anyone who supports them in doing so.

Today was a very bad day for Donald Trump.
And bad days for Trump are good days for America! 🙏🏻

[Governor Newsom Press Office (parody) @AwesomeNewsom]

American soldiers die in Trump's war, not a word from Donald. Gas and food prices skyrocket, not a word from Donald. People demand the Epstein files, not a word from Donald. But the minute you take his fat name off a building, Donald writes Mein Kampf for Morons.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

The sitting president of the United States sent lawyers from our department of justice to make sure our former Attorney General didn’t answer any questions about his potential involvement in a child sex trafficking ring.

But sure, nothing to see here, right?

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

Donald Trump ran for office for three reasons:

1) stay out of jail
2) exact revenge on his enemies
3) line his pockets

Everything else he says is bullshit.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.

Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.

IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.

The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.

The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.

Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.” 

Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.

The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.

This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.

Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

BREAKING:

It's official. The Trump DOJ just confirmed the creation of a $1.776 billion slush fund that can be used to pay Trump allies who claim they've been wrongfully targeted by the Biden admin's ‘weaponization' — including, reportedly, Jan. 6 insurrectionists.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

The most corrupt administration in modern American history.

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

The same day Trump stole $1.8 billion from American taxpayers!

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

The next DOJ should be ready to claw back every penny of this corrupt "settlement" with Trump.
