Questions about Donald Trump's health are growing louder on Capitol Hill.
Rep. Ted Lieu says Americans can see for themselves what is happening, pointing to multiple instances where Trump appeared to doze off during official events, meetings, and most recently at the NBA Finals.
"The president of the United States is not well. We can see it with our own eyes," Lieu said.
Lieu called on the White House to explain Trump's repeated hospital visits and why he is reportedly undergoing cognitive testing.
New from @MacFarlaneNews.
trump knows people care.. he’s on social media everyday…he just doesn’t care that we care because he believes we can’t do anything about it ..
the fact he thinks he has the right to be corrupt is a manifestation of his malignant personality which is what makes him attractive to his cult who think it’s strength not what it is…an intellectual disability
Trump said something outside a press gaggle that I don’t think enough people caught.
A reporter called him out on the corruption. He gave three responses.
1. I have the right to do it.
2. He’s not stealing that much. A billion or two billion dollars. Not that much money. Classic Trump.
3. People don’t care.
That’s the permission structure. Our collective apathy is what they’re using to justify everything happening in Washington right now.
Please stand up and prove him wrong.
President Zelenskyy:
As one partner said during a meeting today, Europe cannot protect itself without Ukraine.
Comment from me: Europe and Ukraine make each other stronger. A fully implemented Ukrainian-European defense union will be crucial for security on the continent.
BREAKING: @tedlieu just said what we were all thinking:
"President Trump has repeatedly fallen asleep at multiple Cabinet meetings, at multiple White House events, and most recently at a raucous basketball game last night. The White House needs to explain why Trump keeps going to the hospital and why they keep giving him cognitive tests..
Rarely will you see one man have such a grasp on the exploitation of the American people. Democrats would do well to put some eggs in this basket, because he gets it. He’s progressive without being progressive and he doesn’t take AIPAC money. Indeed AIPAC has spent money against him.
His oratory is the gold standard, not something to be sniffed at in a political world where the president commits crimes against the English language every day.

Dear @DAGToddBlanche: You don’t get to decide to “move on” from the Epstein Files or from following the congressional law. That decision can only be made by the American people and Congress.
You will be disbarred. The files will eventually be released.
November is coming.
“The administration had embarked on a new kind of fishing expedition — not for dirt on the people they did not like, but to find a prosecutor willing to file charges based on the threadbare evidence they already had.”

Hunter Biden on Zohran Mamdani's leadership: "I look at someone like Mayor Mamdani, and I'm absolutely inspired-not only by the way he won, but by the way he's leading now."
Kushner Companies bought 666 Fifth Avenue in 2007 for the elevated price of $1.8B, borrowing all but $50M. It was a remarkable risk. Indeed, the Kushners were still scrambling to cover their loans a decade later.

🚨 WOW! MS NOW host Mika Brzezinski delivers a brutal reality check. She demands the media completely run over Donald Trump's lies and fight back with facts.
She warns that failing to do so turns networks into nothing more than state-run mouthpieces for the administration!
In recovery we learn the whole point is service.
Showing up for somebody besides yourself.
That’s leadership too.
Setting the tone.
Right now the tone is vengeance and yeah, I get the anger.
But anger isn’t leadership. It’s tyranny.
We can and should reach for each other. Demand better.
Rent.
Not housing policy. Not the abstraction. Rent. The check that goes out the first of every month before the food, before the medicine, before the gas, before the kid’s shoes. The check that disappears into an LLC that disappears into a holding company that disappears into a fund that sits on a server in Delaware and answers to no one.
A third of this country pays rent. Most of them pay more than they can afford. They are working two jobs to send money to a man they will never meet, who lives in a city they will never visit, who has decided their apartment is worth eight percent more this year than last because the algorithm said so.
That is the fix. Day one.
Cap the algorithmic price-fixing the landlord cartels have been running in plain sight. End the corporate purchase of single-family homes. Tax the institutional ownership of residential property at a rate that makes it unprofitable. Use the revenue to build. Not vouchers. Build.
You want to know why people are angry. You want to know why they will vote for anyone who promises to burn it down. Look at what they pay every month to live indoors. Look at what is left after.
Everything else can wait a week.
Bill Pulte has shown that he will go into Americans' personal records to weaponize the government against people. I have a fundamental problem with someone like that being the Director of National Intelligence, and it should send a shiver down the spine of every American.
Hunter Biden might be the most interesting person on Twitter right now.
Love him or hate him, he's talking openly about addiction, recovery, trauma, mistakes, and politics with a level of honesty that's rare in public life.
As someone in recovery myself, I respect that.
I'm a huge supporter.
"I consider myself an originalist in the following sense: The original intent of Congress was not to have federal courts enjoining a criminal president. It was to have Congress impeach and remove that president. That's the originalism I'm standing for here—the originalism of Congress reasserting its power to act as a check on the president. That's the reason why they created an executive, is they thought that Congress would have the gumption and strength to exercise its power and duty to remove a criminal from office."
"One thing is clear; Bondi’s failures were failures that Trump wanted and indeed demanded. If a minimally competent and principled attorney general is appointed during Trump’s term, it will be despite his furious efforts. That’s because one of the absolute core goals of his presidency is the perversion of justice and the destruction of the rule of law." https://t.co/lekQjC62f6
