Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

July 18: If we have a smart president, you're never going to let the dollar slide. If you have a dummy, that could happen.

July 25: A weak dollar makes you a hell of a lot more money. It doesn't sound good, but you make a hell of a lot more money with a weaker dollar than with a strong dollar

So much for that “line.”

Mass shootings, school shootings, deaths during winter power outages, deaths during summer power outages, and 300 dead or missing bc of mismanagement.

At what point will enough people decide that Greg Abbott is garbage.

I refuse to call an American concentration camp the same thing it calls itself at its attached gift shop

Maybe American journalism should search in the garbage for its self-respect and start taking the same position?

Here he is, folks. The President of the United States selling his new men’s cologne for $199 and women’s perfume for $249.

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.

Aerial view of the Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport, a remote airstrip in the Florida Everglades. The surrounding area is flat, covered with brush and wetlands. Florida officials now plan to detain migrants at this isolated site, nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” raising concerns about a new, state-controlled form of detention outside federal oversight.

FLORIDA 🤬

People are sick if they think this is okay. What kind of immigrants are they planning to dump on “Alligator Alcatraz”?

Because in Los Angeles they’re snatching flower-selling grandmas and men washing cars. These are human beings who deserve due process, not this cruelty.

“It is very dangerous to have such an unhinged and incompetent man at the helm of this once great nation.The entire free world is in jeopardy thanks to his avarice, ineptitude and endless need to be the focus of attention.”

The at home assassination of a state lawmaker should be getting a bigger reaction from the President than someone throwing a rock at a Tesla dealership.

I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van?

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

Funded by your tax dollars.

Great use of taxpayer funds.

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest?

Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

The Gutting of America’s Medical Research: Here Is Every Canceled or Delayed N.I.H. Grant Some cuts have been starkly visible, but the country’s medical grant-making machinery has also radically transformed outside the public eye.

"Tanner, a chemist at the Univ. of Mississippi working to develop a novel approach for treating glioblastoma, was notified in April that the grant was terminated.

“I would like to cure brain cancer,” Dr. Tanner said. “I think that's not particularly controversial.”

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

1/ If accurate, this is almost certainly a conflict with the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement, including the National Guard if they are federalized.

This isn’t even remotely legal what he is doing.

These two psychos have access to all your personal data, by the way.

💯 this

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Spare us the fake outrage.

There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.
