Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

President Obama - a sweet moment with his family dogs

Earlier this week, Trump gave another self-congratulatory speech full of what fact checkers have called lies and misleading assertions.

Here are five examples, of his many lies 🧵

The text reads "Actor and advocate, Laverne Cox became the first openly transgender person to be nominated for a Primetime Emmy in an acting category for her role in Orange is the New Black. She is currently starring in Clean Slate on Amazon Prime. Also known for her activism, Cox was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from The New School for her work on gender equality."

Today we celebrate #BlackMagicalHistory by uplifting Laverne Cox. Who is a leading LGBTQ+ artist that inspires you?

This is the era of just redemption We feared at its inception We did not feel prepared to be the heirs of such a terrifying hour but within it we found the power to author a new chapter To offer hope and laughter to ourselves So while once we asked, how could we possibly prevail over catastrophe? Now we assert How could catastrophe possibly prevail over us? We will not march back to what was but move to what shall be A country that is bruised but whole, benevolent but bold, fierce and free

She’s complicit.

This is it folks. We are cooked if we allow blatantly illegal conduct live on tv in front of us with no consequences. This is the shot in Times Square. The world is watching.

“I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

Apparently "DAY ONE" hasn't happened yet ...

He’s saying we haven’t given up our souls to Wonder Bread, pot roast, & light beer.

He’s saying we aren’t American enough.

But history tells us when people say that, what they really mean is:

Not yet.

What Matt Walsh is really saying isn’t about political status—it’s about cultural erasure.

He’s saying we haven’t had our language stripped, our accents diluted, or our identities reduced to a museum exhibit or a roadside attraction.

The Irish were told they were too poor & too Catholic.

Italians were mocked for their language & culture.

Jewish immigrants were seen as unassimilable.

Chinese laborers were banned by law.

Mexican & Caribbean immigrants have been demonized for decades.

Yet all of them became part of America.

Dismissing Puerto Rico as "not American" ignores that it’s been a U.S. territory for 125+ years & its residents are U.S. citizens.

The debate over its future is ongoing—just like it was for Alaska & Hawaii.

But this argument isn’t new. Many have been told they weren’t "American enough.”

Don't need them anymore. We meddle in our elections domestically now

“Oh, I'm not going to that.”

Because what they are actually doing is much darker. And it involves really silly biblical prophecy.

Christian nationalists align with conservative political ideologies that advocate for smaller government. They believe social welfare should be handled by private charities, churches, and local communities rather than federal or state programs.

BREAKING: The US State Department flag has been spotted flying upside down—a universal signal of distress.

And Elon is an illegal immigrant committing crimes on US soil and should be deported.

Are we great yet?

Didn’t he also salute another country’s military leader?

He's an illegal immigrant committing crimes on US soil. DEPORT HIM!

Musk is an illegal immigrant committing crimes on US soil and should be deported.

The U.S. Constitution guarantees due process to all persons within the United States, including illegal immigrants. This protection is found in the Fifth and the Fourteenth Amendment. Denying them their due process is ILLEGAL. But Felon knows that cause he’s illegal.
