🚨 JUST IN 🚨 - We're hearing Donald Trump may not pardon the Thanksgiving Turkey at the White House this year because the turkey is having trouble raising the two million dollars pardons cost. This is a developing story.

[James E. Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn]

When my hometown of Sumter, SC is mentioned, I need to set the record straight.

1. That plant was initiated under Biden, not Trump.
2. It's tied to EVs, which Trump calls a hoax.
3. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will kill thousands of EV jobs.

Facts matter.

Dick Cheney: “In our nation’s 246-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him”

[Gene Trevino @GenoVeno73]

🚨 THIS IS TRAGIC

US Marine Corps Colonel and combat veteran, Doug Krugman, "resigned from the military because of Trump," after 24 years of service.

He wrote in an op-ed in the Washington Post stating, and I quote:
"United States military officers take an oath to defend the Constitution without mental reservation or purpose of evasion. I swore or repeated that oath under five presidents, starting with former president Bill Clinton. I risked my life for it, serving as an infantry officer in two wars. I watched Marines die for it."

"No commander in chief is perfect. President Clinton’s moral failures are well known. President George W. Bush’s invasion of Iraq might be one of the worst errors in U.S. history. All recent presidents share responsibility for our failure in Afghanistan. I continued to serve despite all that because I believed the Constitution brought the country more success than failure, and I believed our presidents took their oaths to it seriously."

"With President Trump, I no longer believe that. During his first term, his actions became increasingly difficult for me to justify, culminating with the Jan. 6 attack on Congress as it tried to execute its duties. I hoped he had learned from those errors, but it only took a few days of his second term for me to realize he had not. I could not swear without reservation to follow a commander in chief who seemed so willing to disregard the Constitution."

"Worse than immorality, however, has been President Trump’s willingness to disregard the law and Constitution to achieve his goals. When asked in May about the Fifth Amendment requirements for due process and if he needed to uphold the Constitution as president, the first words out of his mouth were "'I don’t know.'"

"Instead of trying to work within the Constitution, or to amend it, President Trump is testing how far he can ignore it. If voters and legislators cannot close the gaps in our laws to clarify the limits to presidential power, those who serve our government will continue to struggle. The next president — of either party — may continue us down this path toward collapse."

"I voluntarily gave up my rank as the president suggested, but the future of our country is more important than any individual’s career, wealth or power. I have no regrets about my decision. I have given up the service I loved for the freedom to do the right thing, the freedom to speak my mind and the freedom to speak in defense of our country."

Dr. Bernice King, the daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King and the CEO of the King Center, posted this after the Trump administration released over 200,000 pages of documents related to her late father.

Pope Leo calls on climate deniers to repent:

“We live in a world that is burning, both because of global warming and armed conflicts

“We must pray for the conversion of so many people who still don't recognize the urgency of caring for our common home.” https://t.co/LcLk3Ig4Eo

The evacuation began with my middle daughter’s cabin between 2 and 2:30 am. The evacuation warning from officials did not come until 4. No matter your party, please insist on funding the NWS, NOAA and FEMA. Lives can be saved with early detection and rapid response.

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

Today I visited Camp Mystic.

It, and the river running beside it, were horrendously ravaged in ways unlike I’ve seen in any natural disaster.

The height the rushing water reached to the top of cabins was shocking.

We won’t stop until we find every girl who was in those cabins.
