Don’t let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy...Just find a place to make your stand. Take it easy.

Trump would never in a million years address the murderous war criminal Putin like that.

He's the weakest President in our history, an impotent, gibbering fool rooked, hooked, and compromised by Putin.

Trump is Putin's sniveling, whinging bitch.

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

Bro, did you write this? We all saw you. You tried to shrink in your chair. You looked at Trump like he was some crazy ass pops who was embarrassing you on your first date. Don’t bullshit us. Grow a pair.

Zelensky made Trump look like a bitch

[Sławomir Dębski @SlawomirDebski]

A comment from a friend in Kyiv with government connections:

“Zelensky doesn’t need Trump’s help to give Putin four regions, downsize the army, and abandon NATO aspirations. If he wanted to surrender to Putin, he would have gone to Moscow, not Washington.”
Well said, btw.

This is what a real president looks like

[Ruth Ben-Ghiat @ruthbenghiat]

Just a reminder: the US is not Castro's Cuba, Putin's Russia, or Xi's China. At any moment the GOP could unite and oppose Trump and create a crisis for him. Their cowardice has been astounding but they can still act without being put in a Gulag or shot.

THREAD: Since stepping back into the Oval Office Trump's been purposefully flooding the zone w/ a constant stream of outrage porn to distract. Here's the stories that actually matter that you might've missed this week:

🧵This is an ode to MAGA Americans, on behalf of Leaving MAGA:

Dear MAGA Americans,

I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy.

But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic.

@saraaaaajean I took a logic class once and was shocked to find out that the class was split between people who found it embarrassingly simple and people who could not understand the problems. It seems your brain either computes by those rules or it doesn’t. It explains a lot.

Meta fact-checkers respond to being unceremoniously fired by Mark Zuckerberg.

Fact-checker @AlanDukeNews says in his years working with the company, Meta never complained about the supposed-bias Zuckerberg cited as a reason for firing them.

The appellate decision affirming E. Jean Carroll’s first jury verdict against Donald Trump is a 77-page foray into rules of evidence. You might be tempted to put it aside. Don’t look away. 1/

I'll say this however many times people need to hear it: Elon Musk doesn't support H-1B visas because it gets him the best employees, or because he has no other options, or because he can't find qualified U.S. workers.

He needs workers who are visa-insecure so he can abuse them.

[Lindsay Owens @owenslindsay1]

I read through the Cato Institute’s DOGE manifesto and the chapter called “shrinking Social Security” was a helpful cheat sheet on what we can expect from DOGE:

Musk is going to pay for HIS tax cut with YOUR Social Security.
