THIS IS INSANE

🇺🇸 Out of 45 U.S. presidents in history, President Trump is now solely responsible for 27.7% of the national debt.

[Jared Ryan Sears @JaredRyanSears]

Trump said he was going to prosecute all kinds of Democrats because there was so much corruption. How has that gone?

Joe Biden autopen - dropped
Letitia James - tossed out
Jerome Powell - dropped
Mark Kelly - Grand Jury failed to indict
James Comey case #1 - tossed out
Lisa Cook - still part of the Fed
Adam Schiff - no charges

Trump said they would expose how the election was stolen from him in 2020. Numerous court cases have been dismissed, and Trump has been unable to provide any evidence proving his claims, even with a weaponized DOJ. This is because Trump lost a free and fair election.

None of that should be surprising because this is the same Trump who claimed:

-Other countries pay for tariffs, but the average US household spent $1,500 on the illegal tariffs last year.

-Tariffs would bring in so much revenue that we could get rid of the income tax and send everyone checks. We still have income tax, we didn't get checks, and the debt is rising faster than before.

-DOGE was going to save so much money that everyone would get DOGE checks. No one got DOGE checks, and DOGE cost more than the tiny amount it cut.

-That he wouldn't start any wars, only to then start a war in Iran.

-Said Iran was a short excursion and that the war was won in early March, but we're still at war at the end of May.

-He would bring prices down. Instead, he skyrocketed gas prices and shot inflation to its highest level in 3 years, and it is still rising and now outpacing wage gains.

My question to Trump supporters is: why are you going to believe the next lie Trump tells you?

[Tom Dreisbach @TomDreisbach]

As the Trump DOJ mass-deletes government information about the Jan. 6 cases, reminder that you can still access NPR's database covering every single prosecution.

We also provide access to hundreds of videos presented in court.

"In the end, American consumers paid $159 billion in temporary national sales taxes for which most will never be reimbursed a penny. And rather than those taxes being used by the federal government to, say, repave roads or build bridges, most of the money will instead provide corporate windfalls." https://t.co/gkdRAzPBz5

HOLY CRAP Trump actually accomplished a miracle. Here is what he got out of Iran:

- Reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium by about 98%

- Limit uranium enrichment to 3.67% purity (far below weapons-grade)

- Cut the number of installed centrifuges by roughly two-thirds

- Only enrich uranium at one declared site (Natanz)

- Stop enrichment activities at Fordow and convert it into a research facility

- Redesign the Arak heavy-water reactor so it could not easily produce weapons-grade plutonium

- Ship out or dilute excess enriched uranium
Allow extensive inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
Permit continuous monitoring of nuclear facilities and supply chains

- Accept “snap” inspections under expanded monitoring rules

- Avoid building new heavy-water reactors for years

- Stay within strict limits on uranium stockpile size and centrifuge development for set periods ranging from 10–25 years

Ooops, sorry!

That was the JCPOA that Obama signed with Iran, only to have him tear it up, kill 140 kids, get hundreds of Americans injured, 13 killed, and gas prices to surge 50%.

SCOOP: The U.S. has depleted much of its inventory of advanced missile-defense interceptors after expending far more high-end munitions defending Israel than Israeli forces used themselves, per DOD assessments of Operation Epic Fury 🧵

Only laser weeding can:
• Kill weeds within 1 mm of the crop with no crop or soil damage
• Laser weed effectively in the windiest conditions
• Automate the elimination of all herbicide-resistant weeds

Here is my proposal, who is with me?

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

He promised to release his tax returns as soon as there were no more audits pending, and now there are no more audits pending.

[Jeremiah Johnson 🌐 @JeremiahDJohns]

Trump looting almost $2 billion from the government coffers to pay his supporters is one of the largest scandals in US history.

But our press is so beaten down and the public has become so fatigued by his constant criminality that it's barely a news story.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

I simply could not imagine being in congress and staying silent as Trump builds a slush fund of $1.776 (cute right… 1776) billion dollar slush fund for insurrrectionists.

What are these people even there for?

History will be brutal to them. And their kids will be embarrassed

Reporter: The DOJ has this new fund — $1.7 billion. Why should taxpayers pay for the January 6ers?

Trump: Because in my world, loyalty outranks law. They broke the rules for me, so you pay the bill for them. That’s the transaction.

[Judd Legum @JuddLegum]

1. What I found in Trump's new 113-page financial disclosure report. It doesn't look good.

This. is. Taxpayer. Money

[Scott MacFarlane @MacFarlaneNews]

Rep. Ron Wyden (D-OR):

"This administration is dripping with corruption from top to bottom, but rushing a settlement to steal $1.7 billion taxpayer $$ for a slush fund before a judge can toss your junk lawsuit would be among the most corrupt acts in American political history"
