If a guy broke my granddaughters collar bone and held a gun to my daughters head, I’d call for more than “psychological help.” That said, @MaxMillerOH needs to leave.
Thread (1 of 5). Time to set the record straight, MAGAs will say “fake news” but it’s not, and the truth is the truth. A thread on US assistance to Ukraine.
Total U.S. defense spending from full scale invasion to today: (Feb. 2022–mid 2026)
~$4.2–4.5 trillion
Total U.S. appropriations RELATED to Ukraine
~$195 billion
OF THAT: military/security assistance to Ukraine
~$68 billion committed
Cont….
Because of my anti-Trump posts, my account with over 700K+ followers was reported by MAGA and was shut down.
I’m back with a new account and will keep speaking out.
Please follow, repost, and help me rebuild. Thank you.
@marceelias@skullisland1919 Yes. That dept of interior report was Brady material and ethically had to be disclosed to the defense. Good to know there is still at least one lawyer at DOJ who wouldn’t go along with burying exculpatory evidence. But how many there would?
@marceelias This story won’t ever be fully told. You know why? Because in the next six months, 100 other stories will bury it under an avalanche of bullshit. The ballroom story isn’t just about a ballroom. And there will be others that we can’t even think of right now.
Some career lawyers in the DC U.S. Attorney’s office were probably worried they’d get in serious trouble (lose their law licenses) for pushing a weak or false case, so they made the office drop the charges against the guy accused of damaging the Reflecting Pool and admit the real cause was mostly a botched contractor job. Trump is still claiming it was all vandalism because he only cares about himself.
My take: Career prosecutors still have a spine and a license to protect.
When the full story of this is told, I suspect some lawyer or group of lawyers in the US Attorney's Office feared for their bar licenses and forced the dismissal and disclosure.
trump, of course, doesn't care about anyone but himself, so he continues his lies.
Good morning to everyone but @emilymiller who blocks everyone that points out she lied to America about the reflective pool.
Hope some real journalist hounds her and @OANN about this
This drunk bitch was lying.
And she damn well knew it.
But her psycho boss told her to charge someone. So she did.
She needs to be disbarred and sued into oblivion.
Let's look back on this clip of these two liars. A short transcript:
Watters: A lot of people, when this first happened with the pool, didn't believe the president—that there was vandalism. That's not the case.
Pirro: Yeah. It's not the case at all. In fact, I was at the Reflecting Pool yesterday. There not only is the vandalism that is reflected in today's indictment, but there is a cutting of the liner of the pool at the base of the pool for several yards across the pool. And someone was intent on doing incredible damage to the pool.
Great news: The Department of Justice and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro have just withdrawn all criminal charges against Montgomery County’s Davey Hearn, the three-time Olympian who they tried to blame for Trump’s pathetically incompetent mismanagement of the Reflecting Pool, AKA the “Strait of Warm Ooze.” Turns out Trump’s algae farm resulted from a “botched installation,” by their own forced admission. Thanks to Davey, a beloved teacher of generations of MoCo canoeists and kayakers, for hanging tough like a champ since June 19 when they held him for five hours and tried to frame him on trumped-up nonsense charges; to Rockville Councilman Adam Van Grack for his great organizing to support Davey; and Norm Eisen and his team for excellent lawyering. Solidarity everyone.
As I reported a couple of weeks ago, Trump, the DOJ and the WH were lying all along. Cases against alleged vandals were all lies. Lawsuits should be filed and the liars should be shamed.
Trump promised an easy victory. Then Iran shot down an American F-15E.
Since then, he's relied on multimillion-dollar long-range missiles to keep U.S. aircraft farther away, burning through some of America's most valuable weapons while American troops remain under fire.
This isn't strength. It's what happens when a president starts a war without a plan for what comes next.

This is huge: Republican Senator John Curtis just killed Donald Trump's SAVE America Act by coming out against killing the filibuster. Trump must be losing his mind right now as he loses battle after battle with members of his own party.
