Ok so today Trump waged war on the First Amendment and imprisoned Don Lemon and others, the unedited Epstein files dropped implicating Trump & Elon, and it was proven DOGE was a smokescreen to steal the Social Security information of 300M Americans and overturn election results
SNAP’s fraud rate is less than 2%. Whereas the pentagon hasn’t passed a single audit and can’t account for over $3 trillion dollars. But fuck the starving kids. Am I right
A liberal judge just had her home mysteriously set ablaze.
A Charlie Kirk fan just ran over two girls.
A Trump supporter set a Mormon Church on fire and then went on a shooting spree inside.
*All within less than two weeks.*
Elon Musk says that no one has died because he slashed humanitarian aid. I went to South Sudan to check if that's true. It's not. Within an hour of starting interviews, I had the names of a 10-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl who had died because of decisions by wealthy men in Washington.
The visit that moved me the most was to a remote area that used to have no health care, where women routinely died in childbirth. Then a US-funded maternity clinic opened through @UNFPA in December, and not one woman has died since. I showed up, and people mistakenly thought I was responsible for the clinic. One new mom wanted to name her baby for me, and the village elders thanked me and hailed America's generosity. What they didn't know was that Trump/Musk had cut all funding for UNFPA and that as a result the maternity clinic will close this month, and women will once again be bleeding to death in the dust.
Here's a giftlink to my report from ground level about what the shutdown of USAID means: https://t.co/tbgKk7ESqj
If Obama or Biden had picked a Joint Chiefs head of color who was so unqualified they required a special waiver for the job — like Trump just did for a white man — some of y’all would have lost your minds. Black excellence scares you. White mediocrity is your security blanket.
READ: Justice Sotomayor's warning in her dissent:
"When [the president] uses his official powers in any way, under the majority's reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority's message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law."
Addendum: These two septuagenarians will certainly retire if Trump is elected... and they will be replaced with younger movement conservatives... meaning this 6-3 conservative super-majority will extend to the next generation and a half.
to get this far, they killed a protester, doxed 116K residents, charged 61 random people with RICO, raided 5 houses, follow residents around as they go about their lives, ignore dozens of hours of public comment, and they are years behind schedule & STILL facing setbacks 💪
@ThreadATL This is the play:
1. Introduce infill station plans to get people excited
2. Kill Beltline rail, but soothe the anger with infill station plans
3. Infill stations will disappear in a cloud of planning & consultant mist within three years
Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito — both of whom accepted luxury vacations from billionaires — are set to hear a Supreme Court case tomorrow that could preemptively ban a federal wealth tax.
Is it any wonder Americans don't trust SCOTUS?
