If they say DOGE had 0 to do with it, then it had 100% to do with it.

it continuously stuns me how rightwingers don't know how anything works at all on a systematic level so they assume nothing should be done about anything ever

New @nytimes reporting, backed by hundreds of interviews, demonstrates that while Trump and his top staff insisted the Epstein story was not important and had no connection to the president, behind the scenes, his staff was constantly panicking about this issue like nothing else.

Clayton's qualifications to be US Attorney SDNY were dubious, having zero prosecutorial experience.

50 USC § 3023 requires the DNI to have "extensive national security experience." Clayton has none.

Trump is against the freedom of the media.

I’d rather my tax dollars go to feeding children and universal healthcare than war and whatever this bullshit is.

The dumbest thing I have ever heard. It would only take one drone to take out a nuclear plant or a gas power plant. It would take dozens of drones to have an impact on a wind farm or a solar farm.

Is there anyone left who still buys this nonsense?

I entered this race for one reason: this district deserves better than Ben McAdams. Our new congressional district is bluer than the state of Massachusetts. It should be represented by a real progressive, not a conservative Democrat like McAdams backed by big tech and Trump megadonors.

He's either lying now, or has been lying for months, or doesn't actually know what's going on.

All 3 of these things are likely true.

The leader of American Gestapo is both dumb as a rock and purely evil

@BasedMikeLee Glad to have my friend Jack Stauss fighting on the front lines.

[Nate Blouin @NateForUtah]

Codify the roadless rule and rescind @BasedMikeLee.

Everything that Republicans warned you about "big government" is coming to fruition under Republicans

Hard to top this level of dystopia. Have health insurance through the ACA? The Trump Admin is going to turn your health insurer into a loan shark you borrow money from if you can't afford to pay your portion of medical procedures and you get to pay them back with interest! 🙄

[Bonhoeffer's Child @bonhoefferchild]

I don’t know who needs to hear this but detainees at Guantanamo Bay aren’t convicted/sentenced of crimes.

When summary execution becomes part of the American system it’s because we’ve chosen madmen to leads us and we’re lost.

America’s day is over. Act accordingly.

DHS stopped reporting got-aways early in Trump's second term. The border has been fairly open ever since. Been saying this for over a year.

"In the end, we’re right back where we started in January 2025: an administration asserting that Trump’s election meant he has the right to completely dictate all government policy and spending unilaterally." https://t.co/QG8Jg5lBWG

[Mona Burns @Monaheart1229]

"So, to recap: Trump issues executive orders that are nothing but memorializations of his bigotry. OMB then pretends that these things are actually law and therefore apply to the entire executive branch and, by extension, the entire country .."
This is a very important piece:
