It would be β€œpathetic” if Donald Trump were joking, here.

But he’s serious.

He means *exactly* what he saidβ€”or, rather, self-aggrandizingly quotedβ€”in his Truth Social post.

And that makes this additional evidence of self-delusion and mental derangement, rather than just a social-media-style β€œL.”

WELKER: Why didn't the president tell the public he was going to tear down the entire East Wing, which as you know is part of the people's house?

BESSENT: Well, I think this was a judgment call on the president. The president is a master builder. It could've been asbestos. It could've been mold.

One of Trump's billionaire buddies just bought Paramount. Now, he wants to buy Warner Bros.

That means one giant company could control almost everything you watch on TV.

Pardoned Jan. 6 Rioter Charged With Threatening Hakeem Jeffries The New York man, Christopher Moynihan, appears to be the only rioter so far who has been charged again with committing an offense against an elected official.

A man pardoned by President Trump after taking part in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack was charged last week with a new crime: threatening to assassinate Representative Hakeem Jeffries, the House Democratic leader, at an event in New York City.

We currently have a president who is so childishly crude and grotesque that newspapers consider it indecent to accurately describe the video he recently posted, and TV shows think it is indecent to show it.

But many Americans are OK that the Oval Office is home to the nation's crassest toddler.

Pretty much every single one of these new government accounts is posting rage bait. It's possible (like 100% guaranteed) they are trying to provoke people here on purpose, so don't fall for it. Blockity block block block.

A: Sigh. B: I feel like most of us had maybe 10 numbers memorized - our closest family and friends. Everyone else you kept written down somewhere. The thing is, if you wanted to communicate with the people you cared about most, you had to call them. So yeah, you remembered those specific numbers.

Should elected officials be imprisoned for speaking out against an invasion of their cities? Hard to say. Very technical question. Really one for the lawyers to sort out.

Johnson: "It's true that in previous shutdowns, many or most furloughed employees have been paid for the time they were furloughed, but there is new legal analysis - I don't know the details, I just saw a headline - but there are some legal analysts saying that might not be appropriate or necessary"

Trump: "Washington DC is now so safe. Restaurants are booming, nobody is being shot and killed. They come in from Iowa, Indiana, they come from all over the country and the parents end up getting a phone call that their son was killed. Not anymore ... Chicago is safe. Now it's really safe."

Donald Trump is plotting to cut Social Security benefits for older Americans β€” after he promised during the campaign that he wouldn’t touch Social Security.

We must call it out and stop these cuts.
