Tik Tok...about to become "The Official Government Ministry of Trump Truth"

Hi @elonmusk ! We hope you like our idea of freedom of expression. Please, don't hesitate to tell us which design you like best.

Trump stiffed Rudy on his legal fees from 2019-21. $2 million. Rudy ran all over the country filing lawsuits & appeals. It cost him his job at law firm, his law license, his apartment & everything he owns. Trump, despite raising over $200 million for it, never paid Rudy A PENNY.

An excellent thread. Read it. Then read it again

1. Donald Trump isn’t yet in office, but some critics are acting like he’s already done himself in. They point to Tuesday’s press conference, in which he said absolutely insane things. He plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico. He might annex Canada by “economic force.” Just crazy.

Most of the “Ukraine aid dollars” are spent in America 🇺🇸

Covering Harris’s "closing argument" speech tonight in DC, I was really struck by how fully her campaign has taken back the patriotic aesthetics and rhetoric once associated with the GOP—while Trump's descriptions of America have become darker and more dystopian.

To anyone seeking to manipulate & abuse US Media, the Washington Post’s publisher & CEO Will Lewis apparently just signaled that he’s a coward and weak push-over. Pathetic

[David Folkenflik @davidfolkenflik]

Here's Publisher/CEO Will Lewis's explanation to readers:

"We are returning to our roots of not endorsing presidential candidates."

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

Let me get this right: In Ukraine, Iran supplying missiles and drones, China supplying tech, North Korea supplying artillery and now soldiers to the fight.

This is the fight of our lives, and a Ukraine victory prevents war. if they lose, it will get messy. Slava Ukrainii

🚨Trump's former Director of National Intelligence, Dan Coats, suspects Putin is blackmailing Trump.

This should be a much bigger news story.

So the first 3 volumes of Smith's evidence against Trump are released. About 70% still sealed, but, pretty damning stuff, which is all either their own messages, or testimony from Republican staff under oath:

Trump never stood up to Putin. Never. He never will.

Trump should have never allowed that would-be assassin to take a shot at him

Trump to Patrick Bet-David on Zelenskyy: "He should never have let that war start."

The People’s House is a song that celebrates this beautiful place that we call home, from sea to shining sea. 

The truth matters. And the truth is on election day I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz because I believe in the power of we, not of me. I’ve written a song reminding us that out of many, we are still one.

Whether it's Biden sending COVID tests to American families or Trump sending COVID tests to Vladimir Putin, both presidents tried to help the people they care about the most.

@ActMeasuresDoc @DrJillStein Also, not nearly as important, but is this @DrJillStein, you know, the @GreenPartyUS Jill Stein, who is sporting a real fur collar? ... I don’t think I have EVER seen a European Green Party member wearing fur ...

US exeptionalism - check. Syria - check. nuclear confrontation - check collaboration - check. This @DrJillStein clip almost completed my #ActiveMeasures bingo card.

JD Vance is unfit to become Vice President

If anything, he’s an accessory after the fact

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Question: Did Donald Trump win the 2020 election?

JD Vance: “Yes!”

Disqualifying.
