You paid for a plane with "a level of luxury that nobody has never seen before". And he's apparently taking it with him once he leaves the White House.

The plane. The ballroom. The corruption. This guy thinks taxpayers are dopes. Your money is just his to live a life of luxury.

“In the aftermath of the outbreak, the Air Force issued an exception to the voluntary vaccine policy, requiring that all recruits at Lackland AFB get flu shots.”

Talarico: I was required by law to report any indication there was abuse at home, and I would hope that the top law enforcement official in Texas would be held to the same standard as a middle school teacher. Ken Paxton had the opportunity to protect a child, but instead he protected a predator

🇺🇸🧐Pete Hegseth, Trump’s Secretary of Defense, commented on the shortage of Tomahawk missiles in the U.S., claiming that “weapon stockpiles were depleted back under Biden due to shipments to Ukraine.”
In reality, the U.S. has never supplied Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine — Hegseth is simply lying.
They started a war without having the cards, and now they’re blaming Ukraine.

Very sad to learn that Mona Khalil died after weeks in the ICU following an Israeli strike that levelled her home in Mansouri. She was a very well-known environmental activist and dedicated her life to saving endangered turtles. She stayed in the south despite Israeli strikes because of her love for the land.

She was a civilian, a renowned figure but Israel targeted her house.

CNN profiled her in 2017 here: https://t.co/ZaMRnuS4zf

“I live every day to the fullest and don’t worry about tomorrow,” she told the newspaper.

Geez. She couldn’t be original?

How is it possible that this document has been read by tens of millions of people all over the world on the internet but a senior senator on the Intel Committee hasn’t?

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

This Juneteenth, we should remind ourselves of two facts:

1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it.

It’s as simple as that.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Some thoughts on Capitulation Day.
This level of defeat in Iran is only possible at the hands of a super loser like Trump.
To win a war means changing the politics of the enemy such that they must surrender. That is what Iran just did to the United States.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Dear World leaders:

Do you see how PM Meloni deals with lying ass trump here?

"I am shocked by Trump’s utterly fabricated words."

She didn't use profanity, or insult him. She didn't have to. She called out his bullshit.

Stop letting him LIE about you.

Zelensky:

I am giving Lukashenko one week to withdraw the military equipment from the Ukrainian border that is being used to adjust artillery fire against the Ukrainian population.

Otherwise, we will do it ourselves.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

MACRON: First, Europeans are not mediators. We are on Ukraine’s side. We are providing Ukraine with support, and we have sanctioned Russia.

Second, when negotiations take place, Europeans must be at the table because Europe’s interests are directly linked to what is happening in Ukraine.

This is due to the support we have provided and will continue to provide, the question of EU enlargement, the security guarantees that will be a key element of any agreement, and so on.

So we are not mediators, but we must be around the negotiating table when it takes place.

I'm going to KEEP talking about how Florida Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security.

Iran won and Trump surrendered.
Moscow is burning and Ukraine will win.
Treasonous Tulsi is out.
Trumps name is off the Kennedy Center.
The Reflecting Pool is green.
Donald Trump is riddled with dementia and is rotting before our eyes.
MAGA is in a civil war.

Happy Friday!

Trump on Iran deal: “I would want to thank Vladimir Putin.”

Yeah, the guy who shared intelligence to target our soldiers.

Trump/Russia still a hoax?

By taking ZERO shit from the most repulsive misogynist, bully, and pedophile on the planet — Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni just become a heroine around the world.

[Antonello Guerrera @antoguerrera]

BREAKING. All hell breaks loose between Donald Trump and Giorgia Meloni. 🇮🇹 🇺🇸

Trump told La7 tv that apparently “Meloni begged to have a picture with me at the G7, I felt sorry for her”.

Meloni’s scathing response: “I am shocked by Trump’s utterly fabricated words. I am sorry he doesn’t show the same determination against the enemies of the West. And bear in mind: me and Italy never beg”.

What a time to be alive.
