Oh, I see Trump has taken delivery of his $400M Qatar Force One. And we get to pay $1B to retrofit out all the ish our national security officials are worried about. Oh, but that’s right, Pulte is acting DNI, so we good.
Trump just made his inaugural exit from the $400 million Boeing 747 gifted by Qatar that will serve as Air Force One.
After taxpayers spend hundreds of millions upgrading the plane, Trump gets to keep it after leaving office.
June 19, 1865, Union Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger issued General Order No. 3 ordering the enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation in Texas: “The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free.” #Juneteenth

"The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history.
After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."

WATCH:
On CNN, Jennings tried to justify Trump’s Jan 6th slush fund and I called “Bullshit.”
It’s a MAGA Victimization Fund paid for by US and it’s grotesque.
JD Vance: "One of the things I find fascinating about Pope Leo is he chose the name 'Leo XIV,' which of course is recollecting Leo XIII. Leo XIII was Pope during a time when incredible industrial transformation led to the rise of fascism and communism in Europe."
Oh, that makes so much sense—Members of Congress should be allowed to trade on inside information so they can feed their families!! I guess that $174,000 salary is not enough. Now if only the poor could do the same with their $26,500.
Speaker Mike Johnson on why members of Congress should be allowed to trade stocks:

A Louisiana resident who identified himself as Marshawn delivered a fiery, emotional speech to lawmakers during a state Senate hearing over redistricting Monday, accusing Republicans of trying to “cheat” Black voters out of political power.
Q: "To what extent are American's financial situation motivating you to make a deal [with Iran]?"
