This can’t be real life

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Swalwell and Platner were credibly accused of being rapists and Democrats handed them their walking papers.

Donald Trump IS an adjudicated rapist and Republicans handed him the White House.

Any questions?

IRAN IS MESSING WITH THE WRONG PERSON. DONALD TRUMP HAS ENDED THIS WAR EVERY DAY FOR 4 MONTHS, AND HE'S NOT AFRAID TO DO IT AGAIN. AMATEURS END A WAR ONCE. NOT DONALD. IF HE SEES THE WAR IS RAGING AGAIN, YOU KNOW WHAT HE'LL DO? HE'LL END IT AGAIN!! THAT'S THE HEART OF A CHAMPION.

@magachrchpastr @81james Maybe he meant Dilaudid.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Intelligence once again indicates that the Russians are preparing a new massive strike. This is typical of Putin: right after America’s Independence Day and before the NATO Summit in Ankara. Russia wants to bring more evil and kill people. Please stay safe and heed any air raid alerts.

Separately, to partners: any delay with missiles for our air defense – missiles for Patriots – means the loss of lives, and it encourages Russia to continue the war. The world has the necessary quantity and quality of air defense. What is needed are your decisions to ensure real protection of lives in Ukraine.

Above all, these are, of course, decisions by the United States, decisions by the strong countries in Europe and around the world. Please be active in your decisions and protect lives. Missiles for Patriots are needed not in warehouses right now, but in Patriot units in Ukraine. I thank everyone who is providing real help.

Trump's DOJ had a court order to release the remaining Epstein files and simply refused. That should be a much bigger story right now.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I know @realDonaldTrump and family did.

250 years ago we declared independence from a king who ran the colonies as a family business. In just 18 months the Trumps have made King George look like an amateur.

A $620 million Pentagon loan, the largest in the program’s history, to a company Don Jr.’s firm bought into three months before.

An Air Force drone contract to a startup the princelings took public through a golf course company they own a piece of.

The Army’s largest drone motor order ever, to a company where Don Jr. sits on the board and holds millions in stock.

A $24 million Pentagon robotics contract to the company that employs Eric as Chief Strategy Advisor.

A stake in the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit on earth, in Kazakhstan, backed by $1.6 billion in US government support.

Jared’s fund seeded with $2 billion from the Saudi crown prince, now $6.2 billion, 99% of it foreign money from Gulf governments. Over $110 million in fees collected from the Saudis alone. He negotiates American foreign policy with the governments that pay him.

$2.3 billion from crypto ventures their father regulates. More than a million people bought in and lost $2.3 billion. The money didn’t grow. It simply moved from the subjects pockets to the crown’s coffers.

And the next one is already drafted. A proposed ATF rule that will allow guns to be shipped straight to your front door. The government’s own estimate is 3.3 million home gun deliveries a year. Don Jr. sits on the board of the online gun megastore built to cash in. He holds 300,000 shares.

And that’s only the fraction they’ve allowed us to see. Not one subpoena served. Not one search executed. Why hide anything when you own the investigators?

Me? They searched a laptop for six years. Federal prosecutors. Grand juries. Subpoena power. Congressional hearings. They found nothing. I made about $200k a year selling paintings when my Dad was President, and they made my paintings part of an impeachment inquiry.

For six years they’ve asked Where’s Hunter? What about the laptop?

Wrong questions. The right one is 250 years old. Does America belong to a family?

They’ve given their answer. Long live the King.

[Martina Navratilova @Martina]

The guys who most complained about wearing masks during Covid now wear bigger ones to intimidate people and to hide their identities.
Effing cowards and hypocrites . Shame on all of these racist asswipes

CONGRATULATIONS TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND TRAVIS KELCE ON GETTING MARRIED! WE LOVE YOU.

IGNORE DONALD, HIS WALKER BROKE, HIS RATINGS TANKED, HIS WIFE RAN AWAY, NO ONE CAME TO HIS FREEDOM 250 LEMONADE STAND, AND HE'S OUT OF METAMUCIL, DIAPERS AND HAIR.

@RepScottPerry Hi Scott, Long time. Remember how you plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 election and overthrow the American republic. We remember. Trump won't be in office forever.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Today marks the 250th anniversary of one of humanity's brightest, strongest, and most influential dreams – the American Dream of an independent, free, and prosperous nation that defends people's freedom, faith, and the pursuit of happiness.

That dream has endured many trials. It did not merely survive – it has, for two and a half centuries now, served as an example for other nations and helped the entire humanity stand firm and become freer. This was especially important in the 20th century, when America helped save the world from the rule of tyrants and built the alliances and partnerships that, for the first time, gave a large part of humanity lasting peace and the opportunity to develop in freedom.

Now, in the 21st century, America's influence and importance are certainly no less. And we see that particularly clearly in Ukraine, which is fighting for its independence, freedom, and our people's right to happiness with much the same hope, the same purpose, and the same determination with which Americans won and defended their own independence.

We deeply value the support of the United States, especially now, during Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. American weapons – from the Javelins that President Trump decided to give to Ukraine to the Patriots that most reliably protect the lives of our people – everything the United States has provided to help us defend our country demonstrates the strength of the American spirit, American resolve, and American technology.

And we know the value of all these words better than anyone. When we ask America for Patriots, we believe that the values of respect for life and for people that prevailed 250 years ago will prevail again today. The world needs the kind of leadership that guarantees protection for freedom and for life.

I wish America a happy Fourth of July, the President of the United States and all Americans every success, and all of us around the world who value America – fruitful cooperation. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." That is what unites all of us – all who respect America and thank America today.

May the dreams of free people always triumph over the evil and hatred of those who seek to destroy freedom. America, thank you! I am confident that if we're in it together, we'll definitely achieve peace! Congratulations on your Independence Day!

Phang: Blanche maintains that FOIA was my only and remains my only option. And then he has the balls to say the following. He says that my lawsuit "threatens the interdependence and the reciprocity between Congress and the executive branch." You know, folks, last I checked, I don't see a lot of interdependence or reciprocity between Congress and the executive branch.

What I have seen, I've seen people like Todd Blanche, Pammy Jo with the bad hair, Kash Patel, Susie Wiles, JD Vance, and others, assembling repeatedly in the Situation Room at the White House with Todd Blanche quarterbacking strategy on how to avoid turning over the Epstein files to the American people.

Does that sound like interdependence or reciprocity?

[Jay Bookman @jaysbookman]

This is dumb.
When Georgia has a drought, what happens? The state gov't asks us not to water lawns, or water only on certain days, to preserve limited resources.
This is the same thing.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

The original retweet of Nikki Haley’s tweet included a readers added context section pointing out Haley also asked people to conserve energy in her prior statements. The right wing leadership at Twitter removed the reader’s context. So now I’m attaching Haley’s prior statement.

PEOPLE FORGET THAT TRUMP'S FIRST TERM INCLUDED A VERY SUCCESSFUL PANDEMIC. MANY SAY IT WAS THE BEST PANDEMIC EVER. PEOPLE BEG HIM ON THE STREET, "BRING BACK COVID! IT WAS AMAZING." I HEAR HE'S WORKING ON SOMETHING. POSSIBLY MEASLES. AND KNOWING DONALD, IT WILL BE VERY SUCCESSFUL!

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

I had to double-check that this was a real Truth Social post by Donald Trump

It was.

He’s completely unhinged.
