β€œIt’s a war from within.” Trump prepares the generals for what comes next.

Focusing on the ridiculous veneer is a mistake because the substance of Trump's speech was as serious as a heart attack. The entire senior leadership of America’s military has been put on notice.

You cannot trust the federal government Everything they say should be assumed to be a lie.

"The leadership of the FBI, DOJ, and DHS have proven their agencies are not capable of conducting investigations based on anything other than Trump’s political objectives. Simply put: the federal govt can no longer be trusted, & the Trump admin only has itself to blame." β€” @justinglawe.bsky.social

@jimmykimmel.com A reminder that we should all hold our 'hot takes' on days like this till we have full information on motives, politics, etc.

Politicizing every shooting or terror act from the get-go is reckless and dumb.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

Today, I'm #grateful for growing older & for the lines on my face and what they showβ€”the history flowing behind me and the knowledge that I'm still here, diminished in some ways, enhanced in others. There's a comfort in knowing you survived the bad and were blessed with the good.

I got my popcorn out ready for Republicans to hit the Sunday shows condemning Trump for threatening his AG with termination if she doesn’t immediately indict his political enemies. The party of principled courageous defenders of the constitution will be heard from today!🍿

So what happened to the $50K in cash Tom Homan got in the Cava bag?

Was it deposited in his bank account and reported as income that he paid taxes on?

Is it under his mattress?
