#BREAKING: Psaki: “…I have to start tonight with a story that in any other administration, would be grounds for opening an impeachment inquiry, because today ProPublica reported that the White House intervened to get a $620 million deal for a company tied to President Trump’s adult son @DonaldJTrumpJr…the deal in question involved a startup focused on rare earth magnet production called Vulcan Elements and last Summer, Don Jr’s venture capital firm took an undisclosed stake in that company, and wouldn’t you know…three months later, the Pentagon announced that it was giving Vulcan Elements a $620 million loan.”🙄🤦‍♀️

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

🚨BREAKING: Republicans just voted AGAINST my amendment to stop Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund from bailing out the convicted felons who assaulted cops on January 6th.

You read that right. They blocked us from even debating the issue on the House floor.

Beyond shameful.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who is disgusted that trump is trying to let fellow criminals get paid from a $1.7B slush fund AT OUR EXPENSE, with no oversight or controls, because THAT is how criminals operate.

That could include Jan 6th thugs.
WE. ARE BEING. LOOTED.

Grifters all

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

MAGA is melting down after buyers got an email confirming they will never get their Trump Phones, or even get their deposits back.

An estimated 590,000 people reportedly paid a $100 deposit each, roughly $59 million collected, and not a single confirmed customer has received a phone.

And remember, this thing was supposed to be “Made in America.” But if it ever gets made at all, it’ll reportedly be made in China.

Trump knows his base is full of suckers, and they keep proving him right.

[jay Giesen @arg3]

Who’s paying?

[Blue Georgia @BlueGeorgia]

CNN montage of Trump saying he and private donors are going to pay for the ballroom, followed by clips of him lying about the cost: "$250 million... about $300 million... approximately 400 million."

Now taxpayers are going to get a bill for $1 billion.

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

That’s correct! Any questions??

[jay Giesen @arg3]

Obscene

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

$400M for Trump's ballroom?

On top of:
-$1.5T for the Pentagon
-$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
-$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
-$496M to send National Guard into cities
-$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
-$100M for Trump's golf outings

But nothing for working people.

[Dwayne Walton @23dwayne]

@ViralReelAddict Be a real shame if everyone reposted these past tweets. 🙄

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

"Veteran's Against Fascism," including disabled veterans, were arrested inside of the Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran.

This is Trump's America.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.

Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.

Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.

Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

[DulceBiatch @BiatchDulce]

Proven Fact!

[TizzyWoman 🗽 ☮️ ~ Keep moving forward @tizzywoman]

.@Rep_Stansbury reports that 2 individuals allege that Donald Trump raped them when they were minors.
While we’re holding people accountable for alleged sexual crimes, let’s start with the pedo in chief.

Don’t stop talking about the #EpsteinFiles.

This man looked into research about The Impact of Immigrants on Government Spending from the Kato Institute and the numbers will shock you and it proves why we need immigrants so badly in this Country!

[jay Giesen @arg3]

Just obscene

[Dean Withers @itsdeaann]

Trump just posted a photo depicting himself as Jesus. He is depicting himself as God. He is not mentally fit to serve.

MAGA Christians: How could you POSSIBLY defend this?

[The Green Dragon Tavern @greendragonhq]

🚨🚨BREAKING🚨🚨

Donald Trump’s team is frantically deleting his old tweets — especially the ones where he viciously attacked President Obama’s Iran policies — in a blatant attempt to rewrite history and hide his past hypocrisy.

Sound familiar

Trump in 2008: Anyone who invades the Middle East under false pretenses should be impeached.

You won't hear a better 55-second description of MAGA and Trump than this: in terms of the perspective of any minimally honest MAGA supporter:

Just obscene

[ᗰᗩƳᖇᗩ @LePapillonBlu2]

Donald Trump: “We’re a big country, we have 50 states. We have all these other people.
We’re fighting wars. It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.”

Never forget what this motherfucker has said and done.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

No president in modern history has used the office to enrich himself the way Donald Trump has. That's not a political opinion. It’s the conclusion of ethics watchdogs who have spent their careers watching this stuff.

The crypto ventures. The foreign deals with the Saudis, the Qataris, the Emiratis. The $400 million Qatari jet. The $90 million in media settlements. The gold golf balls from the Japanese.

This is the man who told you he was going to clean up Washington.

For this President, the presidency isn’t about protecting our democracy or the public trust. It’s about turning the highest office in the land into a personal cash register, and he’s been doing it from day one.

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

President Trump spent five minutes of his Cabinet meeting boasting of his thrift with a story about negotiating for $5 personalized Sharpies.

The company that makes the permanent markers said the exchange never happened. https://t.co/87XzjYT8Dy
