Donald Trump’s Presidency Is in Free Fall Republicans typically lead on the economy, national security, and immigration. Trump is squandering the GOP’s traditional strength on all three.

Remarkable: With support for the Iran war tanking, Trump is now throwing away the GOP's advantage on three core issues: Economy, immigration, national security.

A year ago it looked like he might be popular on all three. He lit it all on fire. 1/

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.

Please call your reps.

Yes, we've already seen w/ this administration that Trump will say something batshit that will eventually be walked back - e.g. the claim the U.S. would be ruling Venezuela.

But the call for regime change is a divisive issue amongst the GOP. Push them on this.

Trump’s Epstein Scandal Takes Damning Turn as Dem Drops New Bombshell As new revelations in the Jeffrey Epstein saga threaten the president, a legal expert decodes what we just learned—and lays out a roadmap to what will happen now.

"We are dealing now with an allegation that the president of the US raped and sexually assaulted a child and is now using his DOJ to try to cover that up."

If you want to understand latest Epstein revelations, @leahlitman.bsky.social explains them clearly on our pod:

"We cut it in half."

"But it's still the same."

"Not that half. A different half. The unseen half."

I learned how to make ricotta cheese today; so easy!

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

A stranger on the streets of DC called me Ms. Frizzle yesterday. I'm not mad about it

A hand holds a jar containing approximately 1/2 cup of maple syrup

~30 hours later; 3/4 gallon of sap equals about a half cup of syrup. I'll totally do the lidless crockpot method again!

How many women under oath equals one billionaire

Trying an open crockpot for reducing maple sap!

😲 This is THE most amazing thing I've seen this year. (And that's saying something!)

A ResistDance retelling of ICE murdering Renee Good & Alex Pretti enacted through dance‼️😭

Performed by First Amendment Troop in DC. 🤍

2 protest signs, one reading "'Don't make me repeat myself!' -History" and the other "Love thy neighbor - No exceptions"

Super proud of my high schooler for participating in a peaceful walkout this morning, protesting against brutal & unconstitutional ICE actions

ICE is a complete WASTE of taxpayer money 💰

P.S. Immigration agents admitted they were working 14 hour shifts, 7 days a week.

It was also rumored false arrests were counted.

Imagine working full time to accomplish 1 arrest in 2 months per agent.

They smashed windows, barged into people's homes, stalked children at school & still FAILED.

Rep Ted Lieu speaking at a congressional hearing

Ted Lieu: “Were there any underage girls at that party or any party that Trump attended with Epstein”

Pam Bondi: “There is no evidence that Trump has committed a crime”

Ted Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath”

The only positive thing I can say about Pam Bondi is that she's so awful that she makes Jeff Sessions look good by comparison

GOP = guardians of pedophiles

Make Peter Thiel into the villain, Democrats.

It's all there.

He is the node that connects Trump, Vance, Palantir, Musk, Epstein, and so many other terrible players.

Just expose it and make him and Musk the face of these psychopathic billionaires ruining our lives.

Accountability for ICE and CBP However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

"For much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States."

Sadly, this is NOT satire.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

AOC: Why haven’t so many people been prosecuted? Why are Pam Bondi and the DOJ continuing to hide the majority of the Epstein files, which they admit contain even more direct evidence of genuinely shocking crimes and abuse of women, minors, and increasingly men…

I can't think of anything less patriotic than allowing a corrupt pedophile to suspend the constitution so he can murder citizens, enrich himself, and imprison journalists.

I wonder if the New York Times will go after any of the prominent academics in the Epstein files for being rapists as hard as they went after Claudine Gay for being kind of sloppy with citations in her graduate thesis.

If not, why not?
