This is one of the dumbest f****** talking points.
Anyone murdered is a tragedy.
But to use that tragedy to try to undermine the Constitution is a f****** perversion.
@gkM0t0 @JamesTate121 Sorry, but he fked them over royally last time.
What made them think he wouldn't do the same thing again. He lies constantly.
The memory & attention span of a gnat.
According to Axios, the second round of nuclear talks between the United States and Iran are expected to take place this coming Saturday in Rome, after the Trump Administration was said to have been “satisfied” with the first round of indirect talks in Oman. While negotiations may not take place in Oman, they are likely to take place either direct or indirect with Omani mediators. Officials with the Trump Administration appear to be moving away from an initial public demand of total denuclearization, instead pushing for Iran to take steps in the near future that move its nuclear program further from weaponization.
From Charles Pierce:
“In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba. I saw Lyndon Johnson look Richard Russell squarely in the eye and and say, "And we shall overcome."
I saw Richard Nixon resign and Gerald Ford tell the Congress that our long national nightmare was over.
I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill. I saw George H.W. Bush deliver the eulogy for the Soviet bloc, and Bill Clinton comfort the survivors of Timothy McVeigh's madness in Oklahoma City.
I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
"These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men. They were not perfect presidents, god knows. Not one of them was that. But they approached the job, and they took to the podium, with all the gravitas they could muster as appropriate to the job.
They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.
"And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons who laughed and cheered when he made sport of a woman whose lasting memory of the trauma she suffered is the laughter of the perpetrators.
Now here comes, a man swathed in scandal, with no interest beyond what he can put in his pocket and what he can put over on a universe of suckers, and he does something like this while occupying an office that we gave him, and while endowed with a public trust that he dishonors every day he wakes up in the White House.
"The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides.
We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president* as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president* so completely deserving of scorn and yet so small in the office that it almost seems a waste of time and energy to summon up the requisite contempt.
"Watch how a republic dies in the empty eyes of an empty man who feels nothing but his own imaginary greatness, and who cannot find in himself the decency simply to shut up even when it is in his best interest to do so. Presidents don't have to be heroes to be good presidents.
They just have to realize that their humanity is our common humanity, and that their political commonwealth is our political commonwealth, too.
Watch him behind the seal of the President of the United States. Isn't he a funny man? Isn't what happened to that lady hilarious? Watch the assembled morons cheer.

If a bank robber stole $10,000 from the bank and two weeks later returned all but $3,500 would you be cheering? I doubt it. Trump is no genius. He is a financial wrecking ball. With no one on the crane.
4th Circuit says "unconscionable" @JDVance "The US has no legal authority to snatch a person who is lawfully present in the US off the street & remove him from the country without due process." Will you call for defying Supreme Court or admit error depending on their decision?
TikTok admits 27,000 fake accounts supported Călin Georgescu & AUR’s electoral campaigns in Romania. Romanian prosecutors say Turkish IPs and Russian email addresses were used by troll farms to create 20,000 TikTok accounts that posted over 2 million comments in November 2024 1/
The West Bank settler attack on the Oscar-winning director of "No Other Land" was "no isolated event." Israeli settlers are now regularly attacking Palestinians to drive them from their homes and land, all as the Israeli army passively looks on. https://t.co/zYuOGUbaP5
