Of course, it's what he DOESN'T disclose that matters more.

Isn't it likely Rutte is just gaming it? Everyone knows you have to praise him? I'm not a Rutteophile just seems like everyone dealing with Trump has to praise him if they need him for anything.

I have figured it out. If you utterly ignore every word out of Trump's mouth, and instead only pay attention to what he DOES, its a lot easier to follow him. His words are utterly meaningless. What has he DONE this week? Bombed Iran.

This. Plus, anytime anyone does a gotcha about something he said earlier. Same problem. You always have to look at the actual action, not his words.

The parade is the obvious massive protest destination.

@lincolnproject.us on parade day, one idea would be to have all the protestors march the parade with the tanks. Just swamp it.

The opposition to Trump should march the parade with the tanks.Just swamp it with protestors.

Banks is a really good example of the substantial decline in leadership quality in the Senate. He's a Hegseth, but from Indiana.

This weird idea that the media has about Team Trump raging and frustrated and angry all the time is such a disaster. These people know exactly what they are doing, and calm, cool and collected and will keep implementing. Anger describes nothing. It's an effort for algorithmic eyeballs.

Words like meltdown, tantrum, blowup are are sure sign that whatever you are reading is algorithmic and really not helpful.

Man and this is a US Senator. Yikes. Almost as bad as Cynthia Lummis.

Trump has a severe mental problem relating to the fact that whoever speaks to him last gets his attention and changes his mind. Today, he’s gonna help the Gazans. That’s actually pro Hamas!

Everything is always 2-3 weeks away for this guy.

Of course it is the ultimate betrayal of law enforcement to insist only on the order part of law and order.

Any democrat not supporting every impeachment effort is an idiot not worthy of the spot in congress. If not for this, for what do you impeach?

It’s amazing how these republicans are supporting the broadest expansions of federal power into individuals’ lived in history backing the Trump security apparatus. Not to mention the hooded and masked cops.

Yes this is a good point. I too had the same phase and read the bible three times as a teenager and so much of the actual Jesus point is mercy and compassion and empathy. You have to ignore Jesus basically and go back to the wrath of god.

Do you think there is a LOT of room in the bible, though, for different interpretations? If I had a penny for every bible verse posted on republican senators' X feeds these days, I'd be a rich man. They are taking the bible and picking and choosing. There's a lot of room. Israel is no different.

Of course balancing the budget is hard when ever MAGA cabinet member has massive spending plans.

It will never cease to amaze me that this level of unsubtle dishonesty, such explicitly self-serving rhetoric has managed to convince so many people.

"You deserve less" is a great campaign slogan for Republicans. Keep it up

I saw posts about this earlier and they seemed to be putting words in his mouth. But he actually did respond “I don’t know” to the direct question: “Don't you need to uphold the Constitution?”

Buy American.

It's amazing to watch politicians pick and choose numbers from any economic report to spin. They can find any conclusion from any set of data.

Democrats should start focusing in on the fact that Trump is creating a communist state. Centralized control, no free speech, cronyism.

Basically everyone in academia and government is gonna have to learn to deal without federal funding, unless it’s MAGA related.

More Pritzker please. Trump is totally ridiculous. He has to be stopped.

It is mathematically impossible to replace the income tax with tariffs without increasing the deficit by around two trillion dollars *each year*

at the same time, the swap would increase taxes on poor Americans despite still spiking the deficit by tens of trillions over the decade

This is much the same logic as arresting the judge in WI. There is obviously nothing wrong with asking law enforcement, including masked officials, to confirm they are, in fact, law enforcement. The goal is to create an absolutely subservient population.

Trump has enabled giant hordes of "unelected bureaucrats" to make major decisions without congressional approval, which has been a major republican talking point for decades. He has the ultimate unelected bureaucrat team.
