"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

Unable to cope, Trump has moved the presidential portrait of Barack Obama to a hidden stairwell where the insecure psychologically damaged pedophile president can't see it. The butthurt wannabe dictator also moved portraits of George W. Bush and his father, George H. W. Bush. 😂

So ridiculous. (And so familiar)

🚨 Sources close to the DC mayor and police say, Trump will deploy 1,000 National Guard troops into D.C. tomorrow/Monday.

• For context, Los Angeles is 502.7 square miles, and he deployed 4,000 troops there.

• Washington, D.C. is only 68.3 square miles.

This is what cities under siege look like.

He tried to overthrow an American election. And wasn’t held accountable for THAT. Why the hell would he follow the rules when it comes to building a ballroom?

Just a quick, pictorial reminder of what happens when the national guard and military are deployed in response to protests….

Governors Can Not Remove Elected Legislators. Period. A democracy must have an independent legislature. Only voters elect and unelect representatives.

History and Article IV’s Guarantee Clause makes clear that a state’s governor cannot remove members of the legislature. No governor has ever claimed such power. It runs against the full history of Texas and American democracy as a whole.

Trump deploying National Guardsmen in DC exposes one of his big lies about January 6th.

Kash Patel falsely claimed for years that the Democrats failed to take Trump up on his offer to deploy the Guard on Jan. 6.

But Trump could have deployed the DC Guard himself and didn’t. Now he does.

Karl: The transformation has been gradual and unmistakable.

By February, some golden urns on the mantle.

April, gold adornments appear on the walls.

By July, it's gold everywhere.

Just this week more scaffolding popped up, even more new gold trim appeared.

It says everything that Republicans are working harder to arrest Texas Democrats than anyone in the Epstein list.

Too hideous for words.

CNN spoke with a farmer who lost a quarter of his 125-acre cherry harvest as a result of ICE raids.
Trump claims our farmers are important, yet his immigration policies are making workers scared to show up to work.

Good morning and happy Saturday to everyone. What kind of shithole president remodels his office to cover it in gold after ordering a $200 million golden ballroom, all after making unconscionable cuts to healthcare for his people and taking food away from hungry children?

Letter from FBI Director Kash Patel firing veteran FBI agent Walter Giardina, whose wife died of cancer last month at age 49. Patel accuses this agent, a Marine combat veteran, of “weaponization.” Many of his FBI colleagues told me he did his job scrupulously and ethically.

Trump shows weakness, permitting Putin (who is under indictment) in the US and traveling to the meeting in Alaska. And what's being reported-giving Russia all of eastern Ukraine - is precisely what Russia was proposing in 2016 with Paul Manafort and others, and would reward its illegal war effort.
