Nobody requests a cognitive test unless something is wrong with them, let alone 3-4 tests within a year.

Donald Trump is being monitored for advancing dementia.

Trump just had a physical in May. It was the one where 22 doctors checked him out and declared he will live for 200 years. Less than two months later, he's getting another?

Necrocracy in action.

[The New Republic @newrepublic]

Donald Trump’s latest attempt to weasel his way out of paying E. Jean Carroll involved a bold-faced lie to a federal judge.

Trump took another cognitive test and had another physical at Walter Reed.

Has it even been two months since his last physical?

There’s a massive coverup surrounding the President’s health happening right now.

This action by the US government to subpoena reporters for reporting legitimate news on security concerns about Air Force 1 should alarm every American.

“The appearance of federal law enforcement agents on the doorstep of news reporters should shock the conscience of any American who believes in the Constitution and the press freedom it protects,” said David McCraw, The Times’s top newsroom lawyer, in a statement on Friday evening.

Four annual checkups and four cognitive tests in a year explain why he doesn’t know what annual means.

Ukraine’s drone campaign has reportedly forced Russia to suspend all shipping in the Azov Sea and through the Volga-Don canal, bottling up one fourth of Russia’s grain exports. The strait of Kerch has become Moscow’s strait of Hormuz, of sorts. The latest video from Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces shows why. https://t.co/NpkIbiykQw

"Trump is being shown U.S. intelligence reports about Ukraine’s new strike capabilities and has been impressed by them, while the Russian public increasingly wants the war to end, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the matter. Those assessments explain why Trump is talking more positively about Ukraine compared with last year, the officials said." https://t.co/JWYtsI8B2T

Disappointed Trump voter: "We've always voted Republican but that is about to change. Our biggest support right now -- where everybody is headed is to vote for a Democrat. There were Trump signs everywhere. Those signs are gone. There is not a Trump sign in this county anymore. People feel betrayed. We voted for you and you are doing this to us."

As Hegseth continues to overrule & nullify pending investigations & disciplinary measures for members of the military who engage in reckless behavior that endangers fellow service members and civilians, a tragic accident is inevitable as standards erode. Then he will blame Biden.

[Andy Beshear @AndyBeshearKY]

I publicly and privately urged the last administration to address the public’s concerns with the former president’s health. I’m calling on Sen. McConnell to do the same and provide voters an update on his own health. Let’s end the crazy speculation. Just tell us what’s going on.

[scary lawyerguy @scarylawyerguy]

Fourth physical in like 13 months or so. TOTALLY NORMAL, no need for any follow up by the press. Guy's got massive cankles, constant bruising on his hands, falls asleep in public regularly and struggles to climb a flight of stairs. The picture of good health 🙄

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

Kinda hard to read this and then think that cognitive test went well

[scary lawyerguy @scarylawyerguy]

It's not just the "gift" from a foreign nation, it's the *HALF A BILLION TAX DOLLARS* spent to upgrade the plane that Trump GETS TO KEEP when he leaves office. It should have been a presidency-ending scandal but like all other things Trump, a collective shrug and move on 🙃

[Carissa Byrne Hessick @CBHessick]

This story says Trump’s lawyers are arguing that “news stories produced for revenue-generating media organizations” ought to be treated as “commercial speech” under the First Amendment.

I’m no First Amendment expert, but that strikes me as an absolutely bonkers argument.

[Dittie @DittiePE]

Trump’s own lawyer just admitted in open court he has zero evidence the November 2024 Selzer/Des Moines Register poll was fraudulent — then argued the case should proceed anyway.

Judge Beattie wasn’t having it, warning of a “massive chilling effect” on the First Amendment if this survives a motion to dismiss.

Ostergren’s response: “there is a certain novelty to the claim we are pursuing.”

That’s lawyer-speak for “we made this up.”

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Trump SURE doesn’t like people reporting about the Qatari jet that he took illegally, got a BS opinion from a corrupt AG that it was fine, recklessly rushed it into service because the other one wasn’t luxurious enough, then plans to keep it after taxpayers spent a fortune on it.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

So much weirdness in this most recent threat to destroy Iran. (Why one year? Praise Allah?) The Iranians have, I suspect, learned to tune all this out.

But something's very wrong with the president.

[Kaitlan Collins @kaitlancollins]

Sources told CNN that Trump has been fuming at the reports of security concerns surrounding the $400 million gift from Qatar, and was embarrassed and angry when it became public that that the plane was not equipped enough to be flown directly from the NATO https://t.co/l9gllkC9mO
