Let me tell you how it always works out in the end.
A Democrat is elected to clean up the mess created by Republicans. Then once the economy is humming along, Republicans want to lead the country again.
Wash, rinse and repeat.
NEW: House Oversight Cmte ranking member Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) asks panel chair to call Todd Blanche for transcribed interview re: Epstein Files mess
Garcia: Pam Bondi "invoked Blanche’s name more than 30 times, pointing to him as the person responsible for DOJ’s actions"
President Donald J. Trump has privately raised the possibility of issuing sweeping pardons for people around him before leaving office, according to people familiar with remarks described by The Wall Street Journal. https://t.co/qX1MCHn2bH
🚨 Trump pardoned January 6th insurrectionist Taylor Taranto.
He has been arrested again for terrorism charges and carrying illegal firearms near Obama's home.
NEW: Government employees have started to download the official White House app.
Users can “text” the President. It auto populates “Greatest President Ever.”
America’s 250th birthday is becoming a political, confusing quagmire.
Trump has already given ~$80 million in taxpayer funds to the group he created, for events he supports.
Meanwhile, Trump admin is withholding millions from the bipartisan 250 group.

We Are Living in the Dumbest Timeline
Donald Trump just posted a photo of a wind turbine next to birds and captioned it “Killing birds by the millions!”
He posted this without irony.
For every single bird killed by a wind turbine, nuclear and fossil fuel plants kill 2,118 birds. Coal alone kills roughly 7.9 million birds a year in the United States. Wind turbines? Between 140,000 and 328,000. That is not a defence of wind turbines.
We are living in genuinely, historically stupid times. Only rivalled, frankly, by the medieval peasants who blamed the Black Death on cats and promptly killed all the cats, which meant the rats multiplied, which meant more plague.
At least the peasants had the excuse of having no access to information whatsoever.
Trump has the internet. He chose this.
These motherfuckers are ruining everything and lots of people are going to die as a result.
Trump Administration to Dismantle Ocean Monitoring System
The system has been critical to climate and ocean research.

Pete Hegseth has blocked female and black Navy officers from receiving well deserved promotions.
What happened to merit based hiring and recognition @SecWar ?
You’re making a huge claim here. DHS says she is not a citizen and did not produce a valid U.S. birth certificate, while her attorney says she has a Maryland birth certificate plus supporting records, filed a habeas petition, and got an injunction, yet ICE still transferred her to Louisiana and counsel says access has been limited.
So stop trying this case on X. If your facts are solid, put the documentation in front of the judge, allow attorney access, and let the process work. If you are wrong, every extra hour you keep a U.S.-born person in detention is a stain you cannot wave away with a thread.
UPDATE: Dulce Diaz was in fact a U.S. citizen and the Trump admin has now acknowledged the fact and issued her a passport. Below was DHS’s angry (and utterly false) claim to the contrary.
Proof that, yes, ICE has at times detained US citizens in error.
Youth baseball umpire calls ICE on Hispanic parents—after putting down their kids throughout the game.
"ICE, ICE baby!" he taunts parents.
"Get out of our country!" he yells driving away.
"ICE is going to be coming for you!"
His calls were so obviously bad against one team — kids started looking out of the dugout for help from their parents.
Incident occurred at Bob Lueder Fields in Chicago Heights, Illinois.
🚨BREAKING: Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, says the anti-ICE protesters, in New Jersey, aren’t just exercising their First Amendment rights…
They’re actually organized, sponsored rioters… who are there to “injure everybody.”
Which is an interesting claim…
Because the videos show protesters, and the press, being beaten by ICE agents, pushed under moving trucks, shoved by police, hit with batons, struck with rubber bullets, and blasted with tear gas.
So, for people allegedly showing up with the goal of hurting everyone around them, they seem remarkably committed to being on the receiving end of the violence.
But, my favorite part of his logic is…
According to DHS, the fact that someone saw an ANTIFA flag means all the protesters must be organized, and funded, by this imaginary organization.
Because that’s apparently how evidence works now.
So, when counter protesters showed up wearing Proud Boys gear… does that mean the counter-protests were sponsored by the Proud Boys?
And since some counter-protesters were filmed assaulting anti-ICE demonstrators, and lighting things on fire…
Does that mean every counter-protester was a violent rioter?
Or do we only play this game when it’s people criticizing the government?
Because if one alleged flag means an entire movement is secretly funded by a nonexistent organization, we’re going to have to start applying that standard consistently.
But, something tells me they won’t.
Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump are taking over protected Albanian land in a $1.4 billion project to build luxury resorts and an Israeli-linked development.
The Albanian prime minister changed the law to make it happen.
Now his house is burning.
