The destruction of the East Wing is more than a metaphor—it’s a living example of disdain for history, order, legacy, proportion, transparency, humility, and constitutional checks and balances. Shameful.

So he doesn’t deny thinking he deserves a crown, but his displeased that it’s so small. Okay.

Tomorrow, I, along with Senator Kaine will be forcing a vote to block President Trump’s use of our Armed Forces to conduct strikes against vessels in the Caribbean Sea.

Congress has not authorized these strikes. They are illegal and risk dragging America into another war.

I understand Miller doesn’t like being called Goebbels, but maybe - and I’m just spitballing here - he should stop plagiarizing Goebbels speeches

Unfortunately that’s what some of the leading experts in authoritarianism have said - we have never lived in -or next door to- a dictator, so we have no idea what’s coming to us.

It's important for us to remember that besides being a narcissist, sociopath, grifter, rapist, traitor, and serial criminal, he's also an idiot.

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

Homelessness is NOT a crime.
Unaffordable housing IS the crime.

I feel that we do not say this enough.

Science literacy is collapsing.  And with it, the foundation of civilization.  People fear vaccines more than viruses.  So diseases we once defeated are coming back.  They fear GMO’s more than hunger. So we reject tools that could feed millions.  They fear nuclear more than climate collapse.  So we burn more coal.  They trust influencers over scientists.  So truth becomes a matter of opinion.  This isn’t just ignorance.  It’s a threat.  You can’t solve 21st century problems with 15th century thinking.  Science isn’t a luxury.  It’s survival.  Teach it.  Defend it.  Demand it.

As a therapist I 100% agree with this. I think they need psychological evals. For sure the president and VP. If not the entirety of Congress; but it will never, ever happen.

This is the same President that Joe and Jill happily posed with on Inauguration Day. Or maybe before. I knew we were done then.

I would argue he’s too stupid to know he’s ignorant.

I don’t think he cares. Not until he feels like Hegseth is more special than him or something…

To be ABSOLUTELY clear:

Trump does NOT have a strategy or a plan.
What he THINKS he has, is instincts.
What he ACTUALLY has, are personality disorders.
Everything he says is in the pursuit of grandiosity.
What he SAYS he wants, is peace.
What he ACTUALLY wants is a Nobel Peace Prize.
Period.

#IMPORTANT: we should be using the word “dictator” instead of “King.” “Dictator” gives a more ominous tone. I don’t think “king” is truly the concern; I’ve never known of a kind #dictator…

I’m just gonna drop some pics here and I’ll just let you see… 🤭

That’s an interesting perspective but I wonder how it would really play out? Interesting to think about.
