I truly wish @PBS would hire the team that @60Minutes has fired, including those-soon-to-leave Scott Pelley etc. and create their own version of this iconic program. Ratings would be huge.
Good will would be even larger.
MAJOR BREAKING: A federal judge in Washington just ruled that protesters criticizing Trump could not be forced to take down a flag reading “8647,” finding NO indication that the message could be taken as a true threat against the president’s life.
TOLD YA SO. 8647.
Trump is now reportedly responsible for roughly 27.7% of the entire U.S. national debt accumulated under all presidents combined.
That is an astonishing figure historically.
The national debt just crossed $39 trillion.
President Trump has added roughly $12–13 trillion to the debt across his two terms in office.
That’s approximately 30% of ALL U.S. national debt accumulated since 1789.
In 2016, Trump said he would pay down the national debt “over a period of eight years.”
Instead:
- First term: +$7.8 trillion
- Second term: roughly +$4–5 trillion already
And yes, COVID affected first-term spending.
It does not explain adding another trillion dollars every five months without a pandemic.
A political movement built on:
“fiscal conservatism”
“small government”
“balanced budgets”
has now overseen the largest debt expansion tied to any single presidency in American history.
"I don't think people are sufficiently prepared notwithstanding what happened in 2021, for the possibility that he will try to fuck with this election. And he will. He's already basically telling us that's what he's going to do, just the same way he told us he would do that in 2020."
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: JD Vance just announced that after 21 hours, the Iran negotiations have failed, and he's returning without a deal.
Trump turned ‘America 1st’ into ‘America Begs’ on the world stage.
Watch him dodging questions about the opening of Hormuz. Utterly HUMILIATING.
While everyone has moved on, I remain deeply troubled by Trumps threat to wipe out an entire civilization. No American president has talked in such terms. No American president ever should.
