.@BarackObama inherited a historic financial crisis and left 45 a gift-wrapped economy that he's managing to quickly fritter away with healthcare sabotage, vengeful tariffs, and wealth hoarding for the richest among us.
These Trumper's selective memory fantasy land is amazing.
White people: watch the Starbucks arrest video. See the white folks arguing with the police and asking why two innocent black men were being arrested? THIS is how you use your privilege. Because if one of us had said something we’d get arrested too.
Remember when Bristol Palin got pregnant and Obama, who was then running for Pres, shut down all criticism of her by noting his mom was an unwed pregnant teen?
Anyway, props to members of the right who've forgotten that and targeted a bunch of kids who were shot at in school.
A bomber on the loose in Austin. Another school shooting. This country is rife with homegrown domestic acts of terror yet the president blames immigrants, has his ICE agents deport mothers and disabled kids, & the FBI spend their hours investigating black activists. Broken.
To the Nazi's, the purest Aryans were the Nordic people of Germany and Norway. “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries [Haiti and Africa] come here?” Trump exploded today, saying the U.S. should bring more people from countries like Norway. Connection?
America still has military bases in El Salvador - for our drug war.
When I performed for our troops there they told me it was considered too dangerous to wear their uniforms when off-base.
That's where DT is sending 200k Salvadorans who've been paying the US taxes for 17 yrs.
Farewell, Individual Mandate.
Created by a GOP think tank.
Implemented by a GOP governor.
But then the black POTUS adopted it & it had to go.
So now uninsured sick ppl can show up at ERs
& local taxpayers foot the bill.
Congrats, MAGA folk - you finally got Socialized health care
This is a huge deal. It amounts to theft of our treasury in the tax bill by the President & Bob Corker. This needs much broader reporting.

The public has a right to know what Trump’s and Pruitt’s EPA is doing to eviscerate environmental protections, without financing their lies and opposition research about it. https://t.co/EwDrTTuc5I
In Alabama today, confirmed reports of:
▪️ACTIVE voters listed as INACTIVE
▪️Police intimidation at polls
▪️Long lines due to insufficient equipment
▪️Misleading ballots
▪️Texts telling people their polling location changed
THESE ARE ALL FORMS OF VOTER SUPPRESSION.
I was supposed to do a press tour on @SIRIUSXM on teusday but I'm no longer doing it because I can't bring myself to appear on the same service that has decided to support Steve Bannon. Apologies to the shows I had to cancel. And fuck Steve Bannon.
Roy Moore:
-said America was "great" when we had slaves
-rejects the US Constitution for theocracy
-calls Native Americans "reds & yellows"
-claimed 9/11 was God's punishment
-says homosexuality = bestiality
-has sex w/kids.
Alabama GOP: taking the "Christ" out of Christianity.
👇 This is what Newt said in May. Last night, on Fox, he said "Mueller is corrupt. The senior FBI is corrupt. The system is corrupt." https://t.co/4QnK0Zx7eu
Ever been to a party where dudes were grabbing chick’s asses, and where dudes were sneaking into little kid’s bedrooms, where Nazis were the coolest dudes in the house? Well then, you’ve been to the Republican Party!
All you muthafuckas looking the other way when a grown man puts his hands on a 14 year old’s genitals, THESE ARE OUR CHILDREN! At long last, HAVE YOU NO DECENCY?
The President benefitted from a foreign power’s intervention in our election. Then, his team secretly conspired with that foreign power to undermine the United States government’s response. And all anyone can talk about is whether that’s against the law.
Significance of this tweet is that @realDonaldTrump has now rejected multiple opportunities to adopt spin from lawyer John Dowd that Trump didn't mean what he tweeted earlier in admitting he fired Flynn for lying to FBI. Instead, Trump is attacking the professionals at the FBI. https://t.co/wbHj9VHnGq
