Trump: "Everybody saw the vandalism. All you have to do is look at the tape." (There is no tape. Trump is nuts.)

Whitehouse: "The last question I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers from witnesses? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50,000 that the FBI reported it handed to Homan in a bribery sting? That's administrative stuff ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"

What a baby

Tonight I typed just one sentence into Google Earth and put refugees near the Mexican border. Then I planted a nuclear plant in Iran. What on earth is Google doing? Check my latest post here: https://t.co/N0h6CVECqS

I, like many scientists, was quite interested in COVID origins so I read Pekar 2022 and Crits-Christoph 2024 and listened to three hours of interview with Worobey, Andersen, and Holmes and then a few more hours of Rootclaim debate videos and transcripts. And then I also chatted a bit with Richard Ebright on twitter. I found the former rigorous and convincing and the latter an absolute raving loon. Have I done enough reflecting?

This includes people who came here legally on a visa, applied for another form of status, and are just waiting for the US government to decide their case.

Some are people who haven’t done a single thing wrong; the only reason their visa expired was because of government delay.

Senate Republicans just confirmed Jay Clayton as Trump's Director of National Intelligence.

Clayton has no previous experience in national security.

Filming and documenting ICE activities and arrests is the most American thing you could do. The pinnacle of First Amendment protected action.

Translation:

When you actually fight back against Trump he folds every time. He is a bully and a coward imo.

Wouldn’t it make sense for the gov of Kentucky to at least ask for a video of Mitch, or a phone call? He chatted with Jennings for 20 min about Ukraine and Iran right

Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley:

"The last weeks we as a law enforcement community have been receiving endless complaints about civil rights violations in our streets from US citizens. What we're hearing is they're being stopped in traffic stops or on the street with no cause and being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they are here legally.

We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints as they fell victim to this while off duty. Every one of these individuals is a person of color ... it has to stop"

Ten years of being told Trump has a great healthcare plan and is two weeks from telling us all about it. There is no healthcare plan, there never was, there never will be.

[Ruth Ben-Ghiat @ruthbenghiat]

Not subtle: new party line is to associate Communists with every crime, every offense. Create a sense of Communist threat to justify a rightwing crackdown. Old playbook used with coups and Fascist takeovers.

[Ruth Ben-Ghiat @ruthbenghiat]

Trump is in the bunker stage of things. See the endings chapter of #Strongmen.

[Derek Cressman @DerekCressman]

ANTIFA is so sneaky. They donned cloaks of invisibility and used box cutters to make nefarious slits in the exact locations where shoddy contractors applied flag blue sticky stuff in large sections. They must be CAUGHT and PROSECUTED!!!!

[Gregg Nunziata @greggnunziata]

"Or nothing else matters". What an outrageous thing to say. A Senator who once distinguished himself for putting the Constitution first is now actively a threat to it.

Seeing one of gods most majestic and divine creatures, fight so valiantly against the destruction and rampaging of his home should do untold psychic damage to your psyche. We should be radicalized by this.

[Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein]

If literally anyone in Congress could say something about this, that’d be great!

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

Things conservatives told me when I was in my 20’s:

*Character counts
*Crony capitalism is bad
*Russia is our enemy
*Tariffs are taxes
*The Constitution is sacrosanct
*Government power should be limited, restrained, and checked by congress.

Guess they were just joking.

[Michael Steele @MichaelSteele]

Senate Republicans, this is the crap you pretend will not happen when Trump nominees sit in front of you and lie. And you know they are lying. The DHS secretary has NO role to play in our elections. You know that too.
“Mandatory” my ass!
