The most common way people take Jesus’ name in vain today isn’t using his name as a cuss word.
It is putting his name in their bio and then posting slurs and being really hateful online.
Going to war with a country, then immediately floating the idea of lifting sanctions on its oil to prevent your own economic collapse, is the definition of strategic failure
We haven’t forgotten what you did 5 years ago, or about the 1500 violent criminals @realDonaldTrump pardoned.
Being a Patriot means respecting the Constitution when you win AND when you lose.
George Stephanopoulos opened @ThisWeekABC in high-dungeon over presidential corruption: “This unprecedented money making by a sitting President and his family summarized by critics like @TheAtlantic’s David Frum: ‘Nothing like this has been attempted or even imagined in the history of the American presidency,’ he writes. ‘Throw away the history books, discard feeble comparisons to scandals of the past....The brazenness resembles nothing seen in any earlier White House. This is American corruption on the scale of a post-Soviet republic or a post-colonial African dictatorship.’”
The reason that no one in that Signal group chat said “hey we probably shouldn’t use this” is because they are using it for everything. They don’t want us to see what they are doing or be able to FOIA records. Signal is how they are operating. It’s against the law but they don’t give a shit.
Fascism doesn’t start with soldiers in the streets. It starts with deciding who is expendable.
The sick. The disabled. The aging.
The refugees. The immigrants. The outsiders.
The people who think too much, speak too loudly, refuse to bow. 1/2
If you need evidence that Trump is mentally defective, this is it. On the *same day* he says he will hit Canadian oil with crippling tariffs, he says he wants a pipeline built...for Canadian oil.
He's deeply, deeply stupid.
Trump's firing of the directors of the Office of Government Ethics & the Office of Special Counsel, plus 17 inspectors general, will streamline efforts he and his admin make to personally profit, install loyalists & avoid oversight of corruption and waste.

BREAKING: Republican Senator Mitch McConnell speaks out against Trump’s tariffs:
“It will be paid for by American consumers. I mean, why would you want to get in a fight with your allies over this?”
