In case you missed it, Trump just encouraged followers to 'cheat like hell' in the upcoming midterm elections. #Trump #Midtermelections

Trump’s “Economic D-Day” was not only underwhelming, but there is little robust evidence that economic sanctions are an effective geostrategic tool.

I frankly cannot get over these depositions of former #DOGE employees and the absolute stupidity of DOGE. TLDR:

Lawyer: What makes you qualified to lead DOGE and make decisions?

Nathan Cavanaugh: I’ve read books.

Lawyer: What books?

#Cavanaugh: There were no books.

2003, Powell: "Saddam Hussein and his regime are concealing their efforts to produce more weapons of mass destruction.”

2026, Trump: The Iranian regime would “soon have had missiles capable of reaching our beautiful America."

Our latest @ImpoliticCast is now available! We chat with @MrChrastka of @EveryLibrary about the recent increase in book bans in America. #SaveOurLibraries #BookBans

Fear of undocumented immigrants committing crimes is not accurate. Instead, politicians and individuals on social media highlight individual cases which is a logical fallacy of faulty generalization. #immigration #migrants #crime

Trump's implicit recognition that #J6 defendants are ‘warriors’ is an explicit recognition that they engaged in the forceful overthrow of American democracy. #democracy #capitolriot

I’ve long argued the concept of national security is rapidly changing and must include climate change. #climatechange #nationalsecurity

Excellent new report released by the @CatoInstitute suggesting US faces low risk of foreign terrorism. Their results are similar to my own research that there is no relationship between terrorism and #immigration or #migration.

The #Republican trend toward #authoritarianism is not healthy for a #democratic system which requires a minimum of two parties that respect rule of law, rights of citizens, and the peaceful transition of power.

@Sync the feature that helps me ‘level up’ are the icon overlays — they provide useful information on the sync process and confidence that my files are backed-up. 👍✅

In case you missed it today... Trump's legal team argued the president would be legally immune from using the military to assassinate political opponents. #Trump #Authoritarianism #DemocracyUnderThreat
