National Review: “…Trump is living in a fantasy world... Trump [must] be treated like any other person:…open to rebuttal, and liable to be laughed at when he becomes so unmoored from the real world that it is hard to know where to begin in attempting to explain him.”

[Joseph Fasano @Joseph_Fasano_]

"I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor. That’s not my business. I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible—Jew, Gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness, not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful—but we have lost the way.

Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.

The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women, and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.

To those who can hear me, I say: Do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.

Soldiers, don’t give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not cattle. You are men. You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don’t hate. Only the unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers, don't fight for slavery. Fight for liberty!

In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written, “The Kingdom of God is within man”—not one man nor a group of men, but in all [people]. In you. You, the people, have the power: the power to create machines, the power to create happiness. You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.

Then—in the name of democracy—let us use that power. Let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give all a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise. They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfill that promise. Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to [everyone's] happiness. In the name of democracy, let us all unite!"

—Charlie Chaplin

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

I like Tim Scott. I served in Congress with Tim Scott. He’s a good man. But I just can’t get over this: For the past 7 yrs, he kept silent & looked the other away. Sure he’s not a crazy like MGT or Cruz, but for the past 7 yrs while a cruel, ignorant, lawless, authoritarian, pathological liar wreaked havoc on our democracy, like the vast majority of Republicans, Tim Scott kept silent & looked the other way. And now he wants to run for President & talk about freedom & personal responsibility? Now? When all of us who did speak out these past 7yrs against that authoritarian are finished politically, he wants us to pat him on the back & support his run? It’s just not right.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Republicans are so concerned about the national debt that their estate tax repeal bill would give:

$1.8 trillion to billionaires
$88 billion to the Walton family
$72 billion to Elon Musk’s family
$46 billion to the Jeff Bezos family
$0 to 99.9% of families

Total hypocrisy!

[Eric Swalwell @ericswalwell]

Gee, maybe Republicans should read the room and realize trying to turn America into their own Handmaid’s Tale is wildly unpopular!

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

BREAKING: In a SHOCKING move, two Texas Republicans just joined the Democrats to PASS the “Raise The Age” gun control bill out of committee in the Texas Legislature!

That's right – TEXAS!

Don't ever let anyone tell you we can't win. Because we WILL.

The NRA is freaking out, because they know this opens up a huge door for the rest of the country. I know from personal experience that sane local laws can lead to national exposure — and national CHANGE.

We're doing it!!!

Donald Trump has proven he is unfit for office. He is a risk America can never take again.

[Adam Klasfeld @KlasfeldReports]

This is Trump examining that photo.

[Adam Klasfeld @KlasfeldReports]

Recall: Trump claimed Carroll was not his "type."

After corrected on the gaffe, Trump said the photo was "blurry." For reference, this is the photograph.

(L-R: Donald Trump, E. Jean Carroll, John Johnson and Ivana Trump)

[Adam Klasfeld @KlasfeldReports]

A rush of E. Jean Carroll v. Donald Trump exhibits have been released — including the former president's video deposition.

Here's an excerpt where Trump mistakes Carroll with his ex-wife Marla Maples.

[The Recount @therecount]

Newly released video shows Donald Trump seeming to stand by the infamous Access Hollywood tape.

Lawyer: “It’s true with stars that they can grab women by the pussy?”

Trump: “If you look over the last million years ... that’s been largely true. Unfortunately or fortunately.”

[Republican Accountability @AccountableGOP]

Trump defends his comments from the “Access Hollywood” tape in his taped deposition:

Trump: “Historically, that’s true with stars…If you look over the last million years, I guess that’s been largely true. Not always, but largely true. Unfortunately or fortunately.”

Here is a sociopath.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

And yet, Bill Barr had said repeatedly he’ll vote for Trump if Trump is the GOP nominee. Fuck Bill Barr.

Maricopa County Board Chair Clint Hickman: "When a candidate for office asks a court to throw out valid votes, you have to wonder how committed to election integrity they really are... It's way past time to move on."

[Adam Schiff @AdamSchiff]

Fox News hosts pushed a big lie about our election that undermined the foundation of our democracy and got people killed in a failed insurrection.

And they knew exactly what they were doing.

Why did they do it? The same reason they pushed deadly lies about the pandemic.

Money.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

Early Friday #TequilaTweet: Stop it @FoxNews. Please stop lying to your audience. Every network has a bias, I get that. @MSNBC, @CNN, everyone has a bias. But Fox, you’re way beyond biased. You’re 💯 lies & propaganda now. And you’re hurting the country. Please fucking stop it.
