Where is the outrage? Where is the pushback? Trump tore down a wing of the #WhiteHouse and ๐Ÿฆ—. If Obama or Biden had done this, #GOP brains would melt. This is grotesque. #ballroom #whitehouse #whitehouseballroom

JD Vance brushes off racist texts in Republican group chat as โ€˜what kids doโ€™ | First Thing Vice-president downplays messages such as โ€˜I love Hitlerโ€™ in chat by 24- to 35-year-olds as โ€˜stupid jokesโ€™. Plus, Virginia Giuffre on her abuse at the hands of Epstein and Maxwell

The hypocrisy is astounding. If someone said any of that about Charlie Kirk, the right would have had them fired.

Trump Is Following in the Footsteps of a Failed English King Our Foundersโ€™ designs were studiously informed by the mistakes of King Charles I. Our president seems to want to repeat them.

So ignorant of our Yankee culture and traditions is Trump that he was apparently under the impression that โ€œhabeas corpusโ€ was the name of a person to be arrested or deported.

No words. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

A reporter asked Trump this week during a roundtable session at the White House whether he would try to suspend habeas corpus. โ€œSuspend who?โ€ the president replied, then referred the matter to Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.

I've covered Trump for years โ€” and I've never seen him this scared As the shutdown shifts the focus, JD Vance waits in the wings

This has to be the one of the best lines written about #Trump. Ever. ๐Ÿคฃ

Charlie Kirk in his own words: โ€˜prowling Blacksโ€™ and โ€˜the great replacement strategyโ€™ The far-right commentator didnโ€™t pull his punches when discussing his reactionary views on current events

Why is this bigot being given #presidentialmedaloffreedom? Why is the right making him a martyr? He preached #hate, #racism, #intolerance. Murder is never ok&his killer must be punished. What would the GOP reaction be if this happened to a liberal activist? ๐Ÿค”

Forget Expensive Eggs. Hereโ€™s the โ€œBigger Pictureโ€ of Trumpโ€™s Misrule. Cost-of-living issues are important, but thereโ€™s an even more critical story thatโ€™s crying out for Democratsโ€™ attention.

Over the last 2.5 months, the Trump administration has purged the gov't of those it deems disloyal, fired tens of thousands of federal workers, enacted a fascistic mass deportation policy, conducted a nationwide crackdown on free speech and dissent, and more or less legalized corruption.
