To everyone characterizing this as corruption, I’d like to remind you that each FIFA Peace Prize comes with a Get Out of Red Card Free.

[The Resonance @Partisan_12]

The evolution of American people.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Turns out Trump’s market manipulation with a series of tariff announcements and pauses that tormented American businesses was done to enrich himself.

[Derek Thompson @DKThomp]

~trillionaire celebrates America’s 250 by saying poor ppl shouldn’t vote~ sounds like a tawdry satire of plutocracy and yet

[Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias]

Openness to immigration has on balance been a huge source of strength to the United States but it can be a problem when you get immigrants like Elon Musk who fundamentally reject American values and ideals.

[Sheel Mohnot @pitdesi]

This is wild

Give 5% of your company to the US Govt for less oversight

It will probably work

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

Imagine if Obama was directly connected to Epstein, made $2 billion off crypto scams, grifted a $400 million plane form Arab Royals, and started and lost a war with Iran.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Imagine if Biden or Obama had bragged about shaking down a private company for 10% public ownership.

Where are the supposed stalwarts of free markets like @club4growth or @Heritage or @freedomcaucus ? 🦗🦗🦗

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

The magnitude of Trump's personal corruption and the monetizing of the presidency by him and his family have no precedent in US history.

It takes a total peasant mentality, or some weird cultish devotion, to defend or excuse this, especially if you objected to corrupt Biden transactions (as I did). It's on a completely different scale.

Trump set up a crypto company (World Liberty Financial) 4 days before his inauguration, then had the UAE pour hundreds of millions into his pockets for 49% of it, then gave rewards to the UAE. Jared getting $2 billion from the Saudis. On and on and on.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

[Zarathustra @zarathustra5150]

Well this is awkward…

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

JD Vance promoting his book about finding his way back to faith while helping manage Situation Room meetings on how to cover up for pedophiles is about as Republican as it gets.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

MAJOR BREAKING: In a now deleted post by former MMA fighter Daniel Cormier, he posted screenshots of Eric Trump trying to get an insider scoop on whether any of the MMA fights at the White House are rigged so that he could try and illegally make money off of them..

Below is the Direct Messages that Trump allegedly sent Cormier. There is no reason to doubt the legitimacy of these messages.

[Mike Nellis @MikeNellis]

“I don’t trust the final result unless it’s exactly what I want” is the perfect representation of what the Republican Party has become

[Niall Stanage @NiallStanage]

This is a devastating interview.

Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good.

Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

[Paul Graham @paulg]

This is an actual page on the White House web site. It reads like something written about a third world dictator. So embarrassing. I have not seen any branch of the federal government sink this low in my lifetime.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Happy Pride! 🏳️‍🌈

[fed_speak @fed_speak]

Would be hard to cook up a worse combination of people to listen to

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

It’s still Twitter.
It’s still the Kennedy Center.
It’s still the Department of Defense.
It’s still the Gulf of Mexico.
And Donald Trump is still a rapist.
