@elonmusk Leon did you have a valid student visa? Were you an illegal alien?

[andy ralston @AndyAdinr2003]

@elonmusk This is a non problem Leon.

"You are one of the most privileged people to ever sit in that chair. You are a charlatan and you’re going to prison."

The statement made by the judge in her sentencing was one of the most excoriating things I've ever heard.

It's worth watching.

[andy ralston @AndyAdinr2003]

@elonmusk Was Leon ever an illegal immigrant? Please prove you did not abuse your student visa.

@Acyn @skylikeajedi It's ridiculous to think reading a book can turn a child gay. Reading books with heterosexual characters didn't make gay people become straight just like reading the Bible doesn't make Republicans turn Christian.

This message is for everyone, but especially Trump supporters. Please take a moment to listen to this former firefighter. With heartfelt compassion, he is pleading w/ y'all to come to your senses and join your American brothers and sisters to put an end to this fascist nightmare.

That @VP rocks. Great speech, well phrased, full of passion, full of joy. Far better than she has been trailed. If I was the Kremlin candidate aka @realDonaldTrump I would be worried.

.@JDVance1 Your attempt to rewrite history by glossing over the previous administration's catastrophic failures is audacious. You all want us to forget 2020 existed, remember what he handed down to Biden: Trump surfed on Obama's successes only to fall flat on his face when his presidency faced its first real test.

Firstly, the notion that choosing not to run for reelection means President Biden cannot justify remaining in office is fundamentally flawed. The decision to step down from a reelection campaign can be influenced by various factors, including personal choice, political strategy, or a desire to pave the way for new leadership. It does not inherently indicate an inability to fulfill current presidential duties. Historical precedents, such as President Lyndon B. Johnson's decision in 1968, demonstrate that a president can choose not to seek reelection while still effectively serving out their term.

Secondly, your claim that not running for reelection would be a clear admission that President Trump was right about Biden's mental fitness is disingenuous nonsense. There is no direct correlation between choosing not to run and mental fitness. President Biden has undergone medical evaluations and has been declared fit to serve by his medical team. Moreover, President Biden has consistently stated that he feels fit to serve and would only step down if he faced a serious health issue or if it was clear he could not win the election.

Lastly, your assertion that "there is no middle ground" insults our intelligence. Political decisions, especially those involving running for office, are rarely black-and-white. There are many considerations, including party strategy, personal health, and public opinion. Suggesting there is no middle ground is foolish.

Here's the lowdown:

- Unemployment soared from a 50-year low of 3.5% in February to 14.7% by April as the pandemic forced businesses to shut or scale down.

- By the end of Trump's term, the U.S. lost 2.9 million jobs, marking the first presidency since Hoover to end with fewer jobs than it started with.

- Public federal debt jumped from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion.

- The economy shrank by 3.4% in 2020, the steepest decline since 1947.

On the pandemic front, Trump's response faced heavy criticism:
- He consistently underplayed the virus, likening it to the flu and suggesting it would just vanish.

- His campaign rallies, lacking in social distancing and mask mandates, were tagged as potential super-spreader events.

- Trump's golf outings during the pandemic's early days were seen as a sign of his crisis mismanagement.

- A slow response to mobilize essential supplies for healthcare workers, including a delayed invocation of the Defense Production Act, led to critical shortages.

The economic impact hit small businesses hard:
- Many had to shut permanently due to lockdowns and decreased consumer spending.

- The CARES Act's Paycheck Protection Program aimed to help, but faced criticism over its deployment and accessibility for the neediest businesses. Marjorie Taylor Greene knows that very well. She took PPP the amount of $182,300, which was later forgiven with interest, totaling $183,504.

Transitioning to the Biden era came with its own set of hurdles:
- Trump's delayed election concession hampered the formal transition process, including crucial pandemic response briefings.

- The January 6 Capitol attack by Trump supporters disrupted the Electoral College result certification, sparking national security worries.

- Biden took over a nation grappling with the pandemic's health impacts and in dire need of economic and societal healing.

In essence, Trump's tenure concluded with the U.S. entrenched in a health crisis, economic slump, and polarized political scene, leaving the Biden administration to tackle the pandemic's ongoing challenges and to kickstart to recovery of a destroyed economy.

This still overlooks his dealings with the Taliban, bypassing the Afghan government, which had been bolstered with hundreds of billions of dollars in training and arms. He opted to negotiate with the Taliban, a move that led to the Afghan government's collapse. He freed their leader along with 5,000 soldiers, while reducing U.S. forces to 2,500, all without a clear exit strategy for May 2021. This act served as a parting gift to Putin, cornering Biden into either redeploying 10,000 troops to continue an endless conflict or withdrawing to avoid Taliban aggression.

That’s what Republicans are hoping slips your mind: They’d prefer you overlook the sheer incompetence of a president who's been indicted four times, impeached twice, and still only served one term. They're trying to erase 2020 from memory. But we won’t let that happen.

Integrity, truth, and justice should be the pillars of our public conversation, not baseless accusations and distorted facts. One shall not LIE! We are not FOOLS!

Joe Biden's tenure as President has been marked by substantial achievements and a determined effort to address the complex challenges he inherited from the Trump administration. Upon taking office, Biden was faced with an unprecedented global pandemic, a fragile economy, and deeply entrenched political divisions. Despite these challenges, his administration has made remarkable strides, affirming the United States' position as a global leader and a resilient nation.

Biden's Achievements:

Economic Recovery: Biden's policies have spurred a robust recovery, adding 15 million jobs to the U.S. economy, a record for any president in three years. This achievement is particularly notable given the economic turmoil at the pandemic's peak.

Infrastructure Investment: The passage of a landmark infrastructure bill, a feat that had eluded previous administrations, will modernize the nation's infrastructure, creating jobs and improving quality of life for Americans.

Climate Action: Biden has made the largest investment in climate action in U.S. history, demonstrating leadership in addressing the global climate crisis.

Healthcare and Veterans: His administration has worked to lower drug prices and improve healthcare for veterans, addressing longstanding issues in veterans' care.

Gun Safety Law: Biden achieved what hadn't been done in 30 years by passing significant gun safety legislation, reflecting his commitment to addressing gun violence.

Economic Indicators: Under his leadership, the U.S. has seen the longest stretch of sub-4% unemployment in half a century, along with a record-high stock market and surging consumer sentiment.

Recovery from Global Inflation: Biden's policies have also contributed to a faster recovery from global inflation than many other nations, showcasing the effectiveness of his economic strategies.

Obstruction by Republicans: Despite these achievements, Biden's efforts have been consistently obstructed by Republicans, who have chosen to block meaningful legislation at every turn. This obstructionism is not just about thwarting Biden's agenda; it's aimed at creating hardship for Americans, hoping it will translate into political gains for Trump in 2024.

Strength and Resilience: Folks, the narrative that the U.S. is a nation in decline is categorically false. The accomplishments of the Biden administration, in the face of significant adversity, underscore the nation's strength and resilience. These achievements, along with Biden's proactive measures on immigration, border security, and international relations, reaffirm the U.S. as the strongest nation globally, capable of leading with integrity and innovation.

Conclusion: The contrast between the forward momentum under Biden and the stagnation and division fostered by obstructionist Republicans is clear. The achievements of the Biden administration, particularly in areas handed off in turmoil by the previous administration, highlight a government working tirelessly for the betterment of its people and standing firm on the world stage. The path forward requires continued leadership that builds on these successes, not regressive policies that seek to undo this progress for political points.

@elonmusk Freedom to lie. The ultimate nihilism.

[Laura Loomer @LauraLoomer]

How does someone get in a building unidentified with a rifle and make it to the rooftop?

@SecretService needs to be investigated. This reeks of an inside job.

The head of Secret Service must resign.

This was not an isolated incident.

You can’t just get into a Trump rally with a RIFLE and climb on the roof.

@elonmusk Has this been a problem? Or just a made up problem.
What a bunch of wankers.
