There has always been a belief in America that the President can only stain the fabric of American democracy, life and values. But #TrumpsAdministration has changed the fabric. This cannot be easily removed or replaced. It will last for decades. This is now America.

@BoLoudon You’re effing kidding right!? This a parody account?

Greed and dementia, that’s all Fred passed down.

Happy Father’s Day, Donald.

Hey America,
Hundreds of thousands of Albanians have been in the streets for 21 FUCKING DAYS over Jared Kushner’s plan to turn an island into a billionaire resort.

You’re watching your country get hijacked in real time. Maybe get off the fucking couch?

[😱 Scary Larry 😱 🇺🇦✊🏻🇺🇸🗽 @aintscarylarry]

Color me shocked that the Strait of Hormuz is closed again. trump’s “peace deal” fell apart faster than the Reflecting Pool filled with algae. We are being ruled by the dumbest, most incompetent fucking morons who ever lived. Oh, and trump is still a child-raping pedophile.

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: HE'S LOST HIS MIND! Trump is now ARRESTING people, including an Olympic cyclist, for just TOUCHING his precious Reflecting Pool and deploying National Guard troops to guard it from imaginary antifa vandals!

This is starting to get scary…

On Truth Social, Trump declared that “The United States Park Police have arrested multiple individuals for vandalizing our nation's magnificent Reflecting Pool. Who would do such a thing? These are very serious crimes having to do with the destruction of National Monuments. Years in jail!”

While giving no details about the arrests, reporters and eyewitnesses were able to discover that citations were being issued for simply *touching* the Reflecting Pool.

David Hearn, an Olympic cyclist, was finishing a bike ride and went to check out the Pool to see what all the fuss was about. He touched his fingers to the water to see what it felt like, and found himself ARRESTED on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property.

“I didn’t vandalize anything,” Hearn said. “I didn’t destroy or break or peel anything. By the time I realized what was going on, I was being put in handcuffs.”
This isn’t funny anymore. This is the stupidest tyranny that the world has possibly ever seen. Arresting someone for TOUCHING A POOL and then claiming they were destroying it?

Donald Trump is losing his mind, and he’s growing more and more authoritarian by the day.

This is a colossal misuse of public resources and flagrant abuse of state power in order to accommodate the paranoid delusions of a demented pedophile (alleged) and Congress needs to take action IMMEDIATELY to put a stop to this dangerous nonsense.

WE HAVE RECEIPTS: Donald Trump faces 88 criminal counts, including 34 felony convictions for falsifying business records to hide hush money and corrupt an election.

He was found liable for sexual abuse, owes E. Jean Carroll $88.3 million, and hasn't paid a penny. He stole classified documents, conspired to overturn an election, and racketeered to "find 11,780 votes"—yet his voters put him back in office.

The same people wrapping themselves in the flag and screaming about "law and order" just handed the nuclear codes to a convicted felon who treats the Constitution like a terms-of-service agreement. Meanwhile, Black and Brown people are 31% of America but 55% of prisoners. We cage people at 4x the world average while private prisons profit $ 2.3B+ off free labor.

This is the same president who posts "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY," then pauses tariffs hours later, buys stock then changes policy, and launched $ TRUMP coins while pocketing millions from the Oval Office. They didn't elect him despite the crimes. They elected him because of them.

That's not patriotism—it's a confession.

At this stage, the Iranians should just put the JCPOA on the table and make Trump sign it

@Voyager5577 @Eman5695 Oh Bryan aka voyager, I don’t think any evidence including a confession from Trump himself would ever lead you to calling for his removal.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Fox News: Adam Schiff points out how far $1 TRILLION would go to help Americans afford the cost of living if tax shelters didn’t allow it all to go to one person.

Me: Yup.

[Senator Chris Van Hollen @ChrisVanHollen]

In the 2 weeks since Republicans voted down my amendments to ban this slush fund, Trump & Blanche have refused to say it’s dead  — including, now, where it matters most: in court.

Until it’s shut down, we must keep fighting to stop this $1.8 BILLION taxpayer-funded slush fund.

Italian newspaper headlines ~
“Trump is an Asshole”

Absolutely correct but he’s also a convicted felon, a malignant narcissist, a rapist, a paedophile, a traitor, pathological liar,…the list is endless.

[ShiannonCorcoran💉x4 @shiannonc.bsky.social @ShiannonC]

It’s alright for Advance to use this kind of putrid and aggressive language with regard to “smashing” Labor, “smashing”the Greens and “smashing” the Teals like it’s a battle plan, an action and a toxicity that they are stealthily utilising every single day until it is embedded into our society to achieve a corrosive mindset in individuals who suck in their misinformation and disinformation…

It’s worse when they remind us quite blatantly here that they utilised the same negative strategy when they “smashed” The Voice…

.. and this rhetoric, this activity, this mindset goes virtually unnoticed and unchallenged by the media, by politicians - especially the coalition and One Nation..

.. but as soon as people question Pauline Hanson, her motives, her policies, her questionable political policies, her expenses and her extreme rhetoric .. when we fight back against the One Nation trolls online with our own commentators and a narrative that exposes Hanson’s political aspirations as nothing more than a populist tilt that is funded by the big end of town…

.. we are suddenly the abusers, the trolls, the malignant “lefties” who want to take down the salt-of-the-earth fish-and-chip-shop lady.

See the hypocrisy? See the gaslighting?

Not a word about Advance and a post that is beyond malignant. One of many. Nothing about their continued abuse online, their trolls and the massive numbers of trolls and bots that are in the employ of One Nation to infiltrate online spaces, communities, astroturf, abuse others and spread misinformation and toxic rhetoric.

Not a peep out of the media. Not a word from so-called journalists.

Hanson can tell Premier Jacinta
Allen to “suck it up” when it comes to abuse and misogyny.. and barely a raised eyebrow in the media.

..but when it comes to Hanson’s hurt feelings - she’s under attack, she’s maligned, she’s a VICTIM… and the media let her get away with it.

If Hanson had to put up with the scrutiny, the vilification and the vitriol that Labor does on a daily basis - she would no longer be in politics - and we would not have to put up with her.

That we are even in this position is because we have a compromised media and a toxic social media that supercharges malignancy, culture wars, hate, division and discontent.

They have pushed this agenda because it benefits themselves. They don’t want a democracy where everyone benefits. They want a world where the few benefit at the expense of the many. People like Hanson are just the vehicles they use to achieve it.

Look to tangerine land and you will see just how much damage people like this can do when they are let off their leash without a democratic process to keep them in check.

[Adam Mockler @adammocklerr]

At 9AM, JD Vance claimed the Strait of Hormuz was open on Fox News.

At 10AM, Iran announced the Strait remains closed.

It could not be more clear that the Trump admin has absolutely no control over the situation right now.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

The majority of America feels the EXACT SAME WAY.
