Trump: "The Mayor of D.C., Muriel Bowser, is a good person who has tried, but she has been given many chances, and the Crime Numbers get worse"
It's such an easy fact check, that even MAGA could do it.. Crime is down 26% in Washington DC.
As a person who was born and socialised in russia, I tell you what Putin and russia think about having a Putin-Trump meeting in Alaska.
It means Putin goes to... russia. Let me explain why - in this thread.
First, you need to know that the "Alaska myth" is essential for russia /1
@jamestalarico@KenPaxtonTX I stand with you, Mr. Talarico. Thank you for representing all of your constituents, and not just the white donors. We the people… all of us.
Ken Paxton just filed a lawsuit to remove me from office.
But this seat doesn’t belong to him or me — it belongs to the people.
My message to @KenPaxtonTX:
Come and take it.
The answer to the Ukrainian territorial issue is already in the Constitution of Ukraine, no one will and cannot deviate from this - @ZelenskyyUa address
Dear Ukrainians!
President Trump announced the preparation of his meeting with Putin in Alaska. Very far from this war that is going on on our land, against our people and which still cannot be ended without us, without Ukraine.
Putin did not believe in our people and therefore made this hopeless decision of his to try to take Ukraine. This was his main mistake - to ignore the Ukrainians. I believe in our people. Ukrainians are strong. Ukrainians are defending their own. Many in the world sided with Ukraine during the war. Even those who are with Russia know that it is doing evil. Of course, we will not give Russia awards for what it has done.
The Ukrainian people deserve peace. But all partners must understand what a dignified peace is. This war must be ended, and Russia must end it. Russia started it and is dragging it out, not listening to any deadlines, and this is the problem, not something else.
The answer to the Ukrainian territorial issue is already in the Constitution of Ukraine. No one will and cannot back down from this. Ukrainians will not give their land to the occupier.
Ukraine is ready for real solutions that can bring peace. Any solutions that are against us, any solutions that are without Ukraine, are simultaneously solutions against peace. They will not bring anything. These are dead solutions. They will never work. And we all need a real, living peace that people will respect.
We are ready, together with President Trump, together with all our partners, to work for a real and, most importantly, lasting peace - a peace that will not collapse because of Moscow's wishes.
I thank all our people for being together. Ukraine exists. Thank you to all our soldiers for preserving our independence. Stand strong. This is our land, we are Ukraine.
Glory to Ukraine!

@Acyn Don’t forget, this governor withheld school funding for FIVE YEARS from KIDS because the voters of Texas would not vote for his vouchers. Greg’s middle name is Petty. He only does the will of Donald. He does not care a whit about Texans.
I just visited two people, Kelly and Maria, being held by ICE in Eloy. One is a business owner and the other is the mother of a U.S. Marine. They belong with their families, not locked up.
Trump is wasting taxpayer dollars going after the wrong people instead of real criminals.
I just left a visit to the ICE detention facility in Eloy. There’s a lot to absorb, but I want to tell you about a woman I met named Maria because her story really shows how messed up all this is.
She’s been in the U.S. for twenty years. Has no criminal history. She was detained at the Marine Base in Yuma. Her son is a U.S. Marine stationed there. He’s married to another Marine. And they have a two-year-old kid, Maria's grandson.
Maria was in Yuma because her son was leaving for training, her daughter-in-law had a hip surgery, and so they needed help watching her grandson. When she came back to the base after a grocery run, she was detained and reported to CBP. Now, she’s being held in an ICE facility.
I remember how proud my parents were watching my brother and I get sworn into the Navy, so I asked her if she had been there when her son graduated from boot camp. She broke down in tears. All she could say was how proud of her son she was.
That stuck with me. And it should stick with you. And if I have anything to do about it, it will stick with this administration. This woman loves America. Her son is risking her life for America – for us. She is the exact type of person we should want in this country. My team and I will keep fighting for her and her family.
The Trump administration just announced they will be building a massive $200 million gold-plated ballroom at the White House after signing a law cutting 17 million Americans’ health care.
@GavinNewsom#Trump#also#trafficked#children for sex. He bragged that #Diddy and others called him when they were planning a party.
Trump likely had a "supply" of minors he trafficked and sampled. TRUMP IS INSANELY SICK, STUPID AND OPPORTUNISTIC. A great criminal https://t.co/Jf4UsCNYzw
@AdameMedia They spent my last years of taxes on a scud missile in Iran. Did they have scud missile money? No. We have scud missiles at home. You need to learn how to budget and not frivolously spend the money I willingly give you. Remember, you work for me, not the other way around.
It's insane that people who make tens of millions a year (even billions!) pay the same amount into Social Security as someone who makes $176,000.
Our country could easily keep its promises and fund Social Security for generations if we unrigged the system and fixed this.
Trump and Howard Lutnick claimed Japan agreed to fund U.S. projects and give America 90% of the profits.
Japanese officials just said there is no written or binding agreement, and profits will be split based on risk and contribution.
So yeah, they made it up.
Anyone who is mad at Trump’s executive order on homelessness need to understand that this policy change occurred for one reason.
The existing policies rooted in harm reduction did far more harm than good and completely ignored the larger harms to the community. 🧵
