@jimacosta.bsky.social what an amazing video “Op-Ed” on the blatantly racist language from Trump regarding the Somalian people. He nailed it when he called out all Republicans and journalists who choose to look away. I am one single voter but I will remember next November. We need to get angry.

The White House has become “Weekend at Bernie’s.” Remember all the Fox segments on “Sleepy Joe” asking who’s in charge at the Biden WH? Shouldn’t the same questions be asked now?

My take on Trump’s war crimes in the Caribbean. They want you to make their cruelty your cruelty.

Trump Launches Into Massive, Unhinged Late Night Posting Spree The president made over 160 posts and reshares in just a matter of hours including one "WILD" claim from far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Trump had a full-blown meltdown on social media last night that went on for hours and featured more than 160 posts and reshares, plus a new conspiracy about Michelle Obama. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Nobody explains Trump’s corrupt pardons better than @lawyeroyer.com and she joined me to talk about the pardon Trump gave a Honduran drug trafficker even as the military is blowing up alleged drug boats.

@jimacosta.bsky.social you are 100% correct! No publicly traded corp will tolerate trumpian verbal behavior.

In 30 years at a F100 telecom I was personally involved in getting rid of six mid/sr managers for exactly trump like verbal behavior. One call to HR in each case & they were GONE!

Would it kill somebody to say “Nancy is not stupid.” It pains me to see the WH press corps just accept the abuse. Sends the wrong image to Americans and the world IMHO.

At what point will the press corps, as a chorus, in unison, just shout back, “THATS NOT TRUE”!

What are we doing?

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.
