We are witnessing a well-planned coup. Does the NSA know what EM is doing? How far does this have to go before the generals step in?

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

$2.5 million. That’s what a convicted fraudster told fellow inmates he’d arranged to pay to get out of prison early. Not through an appeal, not through a judge, but through a phone call to the president. 

David Gentile defrauded 10,000 investors out of $1.6 billion and was sentenced to seven years. Less than two weeks later, Trump commuted his entire sentence. When federal prosecutors started investigating how that happened, a DOJ official called the U.S. Attorney running the case, and the investigation was shut down within months. 

Not because they ran out of evidence. Because someone in Washington decided they shouldn’t keep looking. 

Welcome to Episode 9 of The Pardon Papers.

We just hit a harrowing milestone. There are now 1,000 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics that have closed or are on the verge of closing since Republicans gutted Medicaid and the ACA to fund tax cuts the wealthy.

Billionaires over patients. With deadly consequences.

[Common Sense 🇺🇸💙 @commons96055467]

What the republicans are doing to avoid Mitch McConnell’s senate seat changing to a democrat, is an obvious criminal election fuckery. They’ll do a 1000 times more of the same cheating in the midterm, to keep the senate. This is the beginning.

Court: Unredact the Epstein files.
Trump’s DOJ: No. Delay it. Hide it.
Hours later: Bombs over Iran.
When the names were about to come out, the war machine suddenly found the ignition.
You don’t need a conspiracy theory.
You need a functioning memory.
CONNECT THE DOTS.

Trump:
“Denmark doesn’t spend money to really help Greenland, but it’s an important part for the United States. Greenland should be controlled by the US.”

You uneducated, ignorant, stupid fuck…Denmark provides for Greenlanders: free healthcare, free education including university, unemployment benefits, sick and maternity leave.

These are benefits you don’t even provide for Americans.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK!
Harry Enten at CNN just did something cruel. He added it all up.
Every tariff. Every barrel of Iran war petrol. Every Canadian who looked at a Florida holiday and said "yeah, nah."
The bill for one year of the Mango In Thief running the world's biggest economy?
$373 BILLION.
That's $2,784 per American household. Gone. For a war the "peace candidate" swore would never happen and tariffs he still thinks China pays.
$2,784 is three to four MONTHS of food per family. Torched.
And the international scorecard? Germany has him 83 points underwater. Even the data bloke was rattled:
"You never see numbers like this."
Harry Enten, CNN
We did the full autopsy. The promises on one side, the itemised bill on the other. Belly Flop analysis, all the receipts, and a fresh batch of Aussie insults your situation now requires.

"When the Roman Empire was collapsing, they instituted a system called bread and circus. Whenever shit gets really bad, you hand out free bread and you have a free circus to distract people from what's really going on. The UFC fight was the circus. They haven't handed out the bread yet"

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

Once again, a detainee at the Eloy Detention Center told me about how they're being abused and tortured here. Chlorinated water, worms in fountains, food that looks like vomit, people getting sick, and working for $3/day while getting harassed and threatened by staff.

I'll have more to say about my 11th oversight visit to Eloy, but I'm going to keep fighting to drain the $250B that ICE has secured to keep treating people like slaves.

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

Another leader with a spine, Finland’s President, Alexander Stubb calls out Trump! Trump is a moron surrounded by an incompetent, unqualified cabinet of loyalists that don’t know their head from their ass! 🤬

[Emoluments Clause @Emolclause]

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Before the White House said anything about it, we learned this weekend from a Kremlin announcement, that Donald Trump apparently had an HOUR AND A HALF long call with Vladimir Putin this weekend. That’s apparently how the President of the United States celebrated the 250th anniversary of the founding of our country. He had a long, undisclosed, secret phone call with a foreign dictator he has weird slavish devotion to, and who helped him get elected to the White House in the first place. Again, it was the Kremlin that reported first on the existence of the call. After the Kremlin reported that the call had happened, not the White House, we had to hear it from Russia, Trump was then asked about it by reporters and he did then admit today that he’d had the call with Putin right before heading off to NATO. Huh, who called who?”🤦‍♀️

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Peter Thiel, the billionaire founder of Palantir, called Pope Leo “a Chinese communist agent” for writing that AI must be used to “truly benefit the common good, and is not just used to accumulate wealth and power in the hands of a few.”

Who do you trust? Pope Leo or Mr. Thiel?

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: LOL! Gavin Newsom brutally trolls Trump after he's caught on camera visibly confused, being led around by his arm by the Turkish President.

Dementia Don has made himself an easy target...

"THE PRESIDENT OF TURKEY IS NOW DONALD TRUMP’S CARETAKER. BIG JOB. DON’T FORGET NAP TIME. GOOD LUCK!" the Gavin Newsom Press Office wrote on X, aping Trump's trademark caps lock style.

The account was replying to footage of Trump arriving in Ankara, Türkiye. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was seen propping the American leader up, tightly gripping his arm, and pulling him back on track after he tried to wonder off. At times, Trump seemed to not even know where he was, a common symptom of dementia.

The stunning moment was captured on video and in pictures, and was far worse than any of the moments that the mainstream media used to breathlessly accuse President Biden of cognitive decline.

Of course, it's crickets from Fox News. Their cult leader is sundowning on the world stage in the midst of meeting with foreign leaders, and yet Republicans are still pretending that he's some kind of brilliant statesman.

The Emperor has not clothes.

He also has no brain cells left.

Please ❤️ and share to demand that Trump be removed under the 25th Amendment!

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

ZELENSKYY: We are now eliminating around 30,000 Russian soldiers per month. Imagine that scale.

In June, roughly 28,000 Russian soldiers were eliminated. We have video confirmation for every one of them.

Overwhelming majority struck by drones. Frankly, we take no pride in this.

We're saying it to show what modern war looks like. War we did not start but forced to fight in order to defend our country, our people, our children.

Every day, this war also sees massive amount of Russian equipment, logistics, and military facilities destroyed, and again, we do most of it with drones.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

TWEEPS: A $165 passport.
Time off work.
A trip to a government office.

That's what Republicans now require to vote, while tossing out driver's licenses and military IDs. THEY WANT YOU TO PAY TO VOTE.

I need 1,000 fast RTs using #SAVEActIsPayToVote
Please and thank you! 🙏💪

@RepMikeLevin MAGA think polluting the air owns the libs.
They breathe different air from us I suppose.

[Rebecca Clester @ClesterRebecca]

@RepMikeLevin I want you to put limits on presidential pardons & commutations. The number they can issue & no insurrectionists or domestic terrorists.

JUST IN: Over 1,200 former DOJ employees just signed a letter urging the Senate to REJECT Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General. https://t.co/TG2w7kvH7K

🚨: The Trump administration fired the scientists who ran the government’s climate website, then shut the site down. The scientists just rebuilt it with their own money and put it back online.
