@charliekirk11 Charlie, your cherry-picked stats ignore DC's 30-year crime low and pre-Trump murder-free streaks, turning real systemic issues into a racist dogwhistle for MAGA points.

@LauraLoomer @stclairashley @elonmusk @Tesla Is it also outrageous that Elon Musk had sex without birth control, or is it 100% the woman's responsibility?

@JustineBateman Was this you getting behind the candidate you didn't vote for?

@AgbajiAgenda @jkimballcook He didn't call the media. That's on Trump and/or his people. And who is trying to manipulate who here? Trump is refusing to honor commitments the US has made unless he forks over mineral rights. Also, name one other time we've treated our enemies this poorly in the White House.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@jkimballcook But what's Musk's excuse for his attire in the Oval Office, and at the Cabinet meeting?

[dissolved @dissolved]

@lala_notanthony How about Elon Musk 3 days ago in a graphic tee and baseball cap as he presided over his first Cabinet meeting. I don't recall any calls of disrespect then.

@KFILE He's a traitor

@yashar I'm guessing DOGE coin will be adopted as the official currency of the United States of Trump

@jeffreymlevy @FPWellman 25A him is no good for above stated reasons. We could hold the first Constitutional convention since the founding of our country, but there are caveats:

@jeffreymlevy @FPWellman Things would have to get bad enough that you could flip 17 "red" states, which seems like a bridge too far.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@jeffreymlevy @FPWellman How can it happen? Article V of the Constitution. We'd need 38 states (34 to call the convention, 38 to ratify an Amendment). I see no reason why an Amendment could not provide a mechanism in which an emergency presidential election could be triggered. It will never happen.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@FPWellman Really, because a version of this happened almost daily for 4 years of his first term... then nearly daily while he was ex-President... are we really going to daily say he's on the verge of losing everything again? I know one of these days it might be true, but FFS.

@februaryoracle @MsMelChen @LU7AN Again, the criticism is fair in a vacuum, but when talking about the war between Ukraine & Russia, failing to call out Russia & worse yet siding with Russia, is absurd.

Like the criticisms of Biden/Harris vs. Trump. Yes, lots of those criticisms were valid, but Trump is worse.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@MsMelChen @LU7AN I've been saying this, but this image is much more effective at communicating the false equivalency, never mind the fact that I don't think Trump has ever acknowledged that his idol Putin is a dictator.

[Melissa Chen @MsMelChen]

@LU7AN Ok fine. Granted it’s in a time of war.

Then what do you call the Russian and Belarusian leaders?

[Melissa Chen @MsMelChen]

“We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation.”

Yes, a “big beautiful Ocean” that was there in 1941 when Pearl Harbor was attacked. Another big ocean on the other side of which are buried American soldiers in Normandy.

And then we spent billions in the Marshall Plan reconstructing Europe on the other side of that big, beautiful Ocean—were we fools to have done that?

Yes there is massive corruption in Ukraine and the protracted war should’ve ended a long time ago, but the moral inversion here calling Zelensky a dictator is just completely beyond the pale. Do not forget who violated whose sovereignty by military invasion.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@Kathym1112 @DonLew87 FFS, if that was all he was doing, we wouldn't be upset. How it's done is just as important as what's done. If there is nothing shameful to hide, why is he hiding so much? Why lock out members of Congress? Reform is not discarding entire agencies without Congressional approval.

@icantputmynam @yashar Sounds like you don't understand critical thinking. Everybody has bias, but not everyone knows how to engage their prefrontal cortex.

[dissolved @dissolved]

@icantputmynam @yashar We'll see. That sounds like it takes nuance that the bull in the china shop can't manage.
