I believe in science, not old fantasies to make you feel better about dying. I was what I thought to be the left before Bernie. I’ve been centering since.

@ilovedoggies77 @atrupar Cause they are the minority pretending to be the majority, and the only way they can rule over the majority is stopping the 🗳️

[Polly Sigh @dcpoll]

Even Republicans don’t believe this ridiculous BS.

Only a demented lunatic would keep going with these insane lies.

[NewNowMan JFK 🇺🇸🦅 @NewNowMan]

@dcpoll @AntiToxicPeople He’s directing his cult by laying out the gaslight clearly.

@AntiToxicPeople This is akin to Jim jones directing traffic and reality at camp.

A note to my friends who still back Trump:

I am not here to dunk on you. I am writing because you have a working brain, and this story insults it.

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool got a $14 million paint job. Shortly thereafter the water turned green and the new “American flag blue” coating started peeling off the bottom in sheets. Trump says vandals did it. He claims, without evidence, that someone took a knife and cut a 300-foot slit, a number that grew to 350 feet while he was still talking.

Back on May 4, Trump bragged about that same coating and said, if you had a knife, you could not even cut it, so strong, like powerful rubber. He cannot have it both ways.

And the green water?

A George Mason scientist tested it and found ordinary, non-toxic algae, the kind that blooms in any shallow sunny pool. To fight it, crews dumped hydrogen peroxide into the water.

Hydrogen peroxide is also a paint stripper.

That, not sabotage or vandalism, is the obvious reason the paint came off. They wrecked their own paint job, then blamed phantom vandals for it.

The lone "vandal" they paraded is a 67-year-old Olympian who touched a flap of paint already peeling on its own.

Here is the thing. If they will look you in the eye and lie about something this small, something you can see with your own eyes, ask yourself what else they are lying to you about.

Again, you have a working brain. People like Karoline Leavitt are counting on you to stay loyal instead of exercising independent thought.

Prove them wrong.

NEW: If USPS moves forward with its proposal to withhold mail ballots from states that don't share private voter data, "it will destroy the Postal Service," one advocate warned.

After the postmaster general defended the plan, critics fear the USPS could threaten the integrity of American elections. https://t.co/q4eLSbWCvr

BREAKING: Sources are telling me there are serious concerns in Europe over closed-door discussions involving Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, the Kremlin, and a potential U.S.-Russia partnership connected to the Nord Stream pipeline.

Presidential rant of the day.

Nothing about this is normal.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

The Trump playbook? Fail miserably and find a scapegoat.

– Algae bloom in the Reflecting Pool caused by his renovations? Vandals did it!
– Gas prices spike due to his war? Oil company price gouging!
– Interest rates remain high due to inflation caused by his tariffs and war? Jerome Powell's fault!
– Bungle the COVID response? Fauci did it!
– Incite an insurrection? It was the deep state in the FBI! Or ANTIFA! BLM!
– Immigration enforcement failures? Radical activist judges did it!
– Economy slowing or recession fears? It’s Biden’s economy!

Coming soon:
– Lose the midterms due to historic unpopularity? It's the RINOs fault for not passing the SAVE Act!

@MeidasTouch @Acyn He thinks he won the country in his own game show and now it’s just that, all a game.

Meiselas: We got the latest data: factory job cuts in June neared financial crisis and COVID levels. As bad as it was in 2009 and during COVID-19. That's the Trump economy for you -- screwing over the workers.

The Air Force confirmed with my office that the flu outbreak at the Air Force Lackland Base in San Antonio is getting worse. There are now 275 confirmed cases.

@JoaquinCastrotx About time they at least name the strain

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

"The last leg of this cursed stool enlists the mailman to suppress the vote. Trump’s EO directs the Postal Service to initiate rulemaking to create a 'Mail-In and Absentee Participation List' — constructed from stolen state voter rolls fed into the illegal SAVE database — and prohibit delivery of ballots to anyone who’s not on it." https://t.co/1A9SFUawjD

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Family members of US soldiers wounded in Iran were reportedly told by military personnel their loved ones only sustained 'minor injuries.'

Several families have said this was not true, and their loved ones were actually suffering severe shrapnel wounds and traumatic brain injuries.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

First to MS NOW:

Senate Democrats are calling on the U.S. Postal Service not to move ahead with new mail-in ballot regulations that, they say, will "establish President Trump's control over federal elections."

Democrats fear the USPS could be transformed "into a federal election administration agency — with frightening authorities to disenfranchise Americans."
