Happy 1 year anniversary to this tweet.

LIE. I was there. They were walking through the building, destroying property, spreading feces on the walls, stealing things, rioting and threatening to kill the Vice President. But other than that . . .

“Thank you for being frugal with our tax dollars on repairing Washington”

Trump: That’s right

“Senate Republicans voted early this morning to add another $70 billion. They looked at the mass deportations, masked government thugs and semi-official government violence, court rebukes, and they thought: Yes, we’d like more of that, please.”

Trump is graded on such a big curve. I’ve never seen anything like it. Dude is incoherent, racist, has numerous visible health problems including being so old that he falls asleep on camera all the time, and started a war that has made everything worse for everyone. And yet.

Trump wanted to use one of our nation’s greatest promises—Social Security—to advance his despicable immigration agenda.

When you think this Administration can't stoop any lower, they prove you wrong.

NEW: Last month, I wrote about two Rhode Island judges who, in wildly different cases, each called DOJ's honesty into question. In one of those cases, an AUSA has already been referred for disciplinary proceedings. Now, it's happening in the other one too. Past coverage: https://t.co/ZouxEL1sIG

Todd Blanche promoted Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum-security federal prison camp.

So Donald Trump wants to promote Todd Blanche to AG.

Shouldn’t Republican Senators demand Trump promise he won’t pardon Maxwell, or commute her sentence, before considering voting for Blanche?

After roughly a week of having the media tell us that Senate Republicans were STANDING UP TO TRUMP you'll be shocked to learn Senate Republicans did not in fact STAND UP TO TRUMP. 🤡

This is really, actually, no-kidding the disclaimer Hannity ran after his interview with Todd Blanche

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

The intense media focus on Graham Platner is understandable. He is an unknown in a crucial Senate race with a lot of baggage. Less understandable is the lack of coverage of Ken Paxton, whose sins are far worse. That it is “old news” is no excuse. Most voters have no clue.
