NBC News correspondent Matt Bradley, three members of his team and a Palestinian woman were attacked and injured by masked Israeli settlers while reporting in the occupied West Bank on Saturday. https://t.co/LtnHWS4Rj3

Still can’t believe we kidnapped a president and everyone just carried on

[Centrism Fan Acct 🔹 @Wilson__Valdez]

It's actually insane how on literally every issue these people have made THE defining issues of their politics (whether is healthcare, Israel/Palestine, etc etc), they know almost nothing about it beyond the surface-level sloganeering.

You would really think if you decided to make something your entire existence, you would at least educate yourself enough to have an informed opinion on it but.......nope. Just buzzwords and brow-beating.

His campaign platform was literally “MASS DEPORTATION NOW.” Prioritizing criminals was the Obama/Biden strategy; Trump made it pretty clear that his target was everyone here illegally.

Ken Paxton failed to disclose he secretly purchased real estate worth millions of dollars in Hawaii, Florida, and Utah.

Experts say this is a direct violation of Texas state ethics rules.

As far as the Reflecting Pool case goes, Jeanine Pirro is required to provide facts and evidence that hold up in a court of law.

Donald Trump and Doug Burgum, while offering their takes on the matter, are not.

Draw your own conclusions.

Abdul, we were both on the ballot in 2018. I was capable of winning my competitive primary and general election. You lost.

You lost by over twenty points to Gretchen Whitmer and you will lose to Mike Rogers by talking like this.

Everyone in America understands you want to blame all of your problems on Jewish Americans.

But buddy, let me be very clear, I will lower the costs of groceries, ban stock trading for elected officials, stop Trump's abuses of power, and protect Michigan manufacturing.

And you’ll just be a celebrity whining and writing books to get even richer. You’re part of the complainer class, looking for their next book or podcast deal.

Bro, I just want to work for Michigan.

The main argument for a Strategic BItcoin Reserve seems to be that Bitcoin holders worry about an impending shortage of greater fools and need the US government to act as the greatest fool of last resort.

[Pensandpages @Pensandpages]

@davidfrum Bitcoin is nothing more than a giant Ponzi scheme supporting a barter system. We might as well be trading shells and beads.

Q: Who’s DOGE administrator?
LEAVITT (feigning exasperation): Elon Musk is overseeing DOGE.
Q: He’s the administrator?
LEAVITT (feigning exasperation): No, he’s a special govt employee.
Q: Who’s the admin?
LEAVITT: I’m not going to reveal that...We’ve been incredibly transparent.

AP: Nearly 40% of contracts canceled by DOGE are expected to produce no savings https://t.co/MIGwlOAZaj

[Carter Baizen @rachellacroixs]

So it turns out this was a private security firm and its license has now been suspended because of this incident. This is crazy that corrupt politicians are using private security firms to quiet their constituents but we are overreacting by saying this is fascism. Oh okay!

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

You should not trust anything that @elonmusk or the DOGE team says about spending cuts or savings. They're liars or incompetent or both.

[Andrew Prokop @awprokop]

It's very special that we live in a country where the president posts a message to his top adviser on the social network he owns, and the adviser responds on the separate social network *he* owns 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@RapidResponse47 hey you accidentally cropped out part of this! here's the whole thing

[Jessica Riedl 🧀 🇺🇦 @JessicaBRiedl]

Great thread. The lawmaker two-step is:
First, make your tax cut temporary so that it requires offset only up to the expiration date.

Next, cancel the expiration date - with no offsets of the extended cost - because "extending current policies doesn't count as a new tax cut."
