Sincere question: do Trump supporters who genuinely want to reduce political violence actually think that lobbing transparently hypocritical accusations about the left's rhetoric is in any way effective?
Are we really gonna go through another cycle where MAGA folks point out incendiary rhetoric on the left without ever acknowledging that some of the most violent and incendiary rhetoric in America comes from the President and his supporters? Do you not think the rest of the country has eyes and ears?
It's truly awful that President Trump has been the target of political violence. It's also truly awful how he's frequently talked about his political opponents: accusing them of treason, amplifying calls for their execution, publicly celebrating their death, calling them scum, garbage, vermin, animals. It was like 3 weeks ago that he threatened the annihilation of an entire civilization! It was just a few months ago that he and his White House knowingly smeared two Americans who'd been killed by federal agents as domestic terrorists!
I hate political violence. I hate what happened last night. Probably 99% of Americans agree. But let's not insult everyone's intelligence by pretending that the most powerful person in the world isn't a huge part of the problem here.
So basically Trump can post that he’s sending a hospital ship to Greenland for no reason, then do absolutely nothing to actually send a hospital ship to Greenland because it was all a lie, and not one single Republican gets asked about it. That’s where we’re at.
Trump, July 19: "All three nuclear sites in Iran were completely destroyed and/or OBLITERATED. It would take years to bring them back into service."
Witkoff, Sunday: "They're probably a week away from having industrial-grade bomb-making material."
Former VP @Mike_Pence: "I strongly and heartedly welcome the decision by the Supreme Court of the United States to uphold the separation of powers and turn back President Trump's liberation day regime of tariffs. I think it's a relief for American businesses, American workers."
Whitmer was already in Europe for the Munich Security Conference and a trade mission funded by the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. She attended a game while she was there. Kash Patel flew from D.C. to Italy on a $75K FBI jet, his spokesperson attacked reporters for calling it personal, then he was filmed chugging beer in the locker room. He also has a documented pattern of using the jet for date nights, golf trips, hunting trips, and hockey games. If you can't see the difference, you're not trying.
Thursday was opening day for Kenai's personal use dipnet fishery at the mouth of the Kenai River. The summer tradition is a way for Alaskans to catch enough salmon to last them through the winter. https://t.co/sgs48tqaqB
We all deserve to know what’s in the Epstein files, who’s implicated, and how deep this corruption goes.
Americans were promised justice and transparency.
We’re introducing a discharge petition to force a vote in the US House of Representatives on releasing the COMPLETE files.
My late wife Rhonda with an MIT engineering degree used to say, “what they’re doing in DC isn’t 3D chess, they’re chewing on the checkers and arguing which tastes better, red or black.”
And just ensure his demands are fully unhinged, the tariff letter goes on about fentanyl as a problem, when less than 1% of fentanyl seized originates in Canada.
It's hard to solve problems that don't actually exist, eh.
🚨BREAKING: After MAGA slammed President Biden’s doctor for pleading the Fifth 14 times in order to keep Biden’s personal medical information private - video of Donald Trump pleading the Fifth FOUR HUNDRED TIMES has gone viral. You know what to do.
What the actual fuck! A reporter asks a clueless Trump about Russia's use of illegal chemical weapons against Ukraine and Trump asks incompetent Pete Hegseth, who has to defer to John Ratcliffe. Our country's being run by absolute fucking imbeciles! 😳👇
No cable news host in America so fearlessly speaks the truth: Lawrence O'Donnell's fearlessness in documenting the corruption, degeneracy, and stupidity of the dumbest and most incompetent president in history is a ray of hope in the current US hellscape of authoritarian fascism.
