On your list of stories, almost none of them cover the statement he made yesterday. Then, where are ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, etc on your list? I see some small outlets & some local ones. I said almost no big national media companies did a story on what he said yesterday. Your post doesn’t show they did.

Trump hasn’t cut drug prices by even 1%, let alone β€œ1500%”. He told drug companies on Truth Social to cut their prices. They didn’t. End of story. This was also his plan to end the war in Ukraine - by posting β€œVladimir Stop!” on Truth Social. It’s also how he handles trade.

Virtually zero legacy media coverage of this statement. A couple of stories, that’s about it. The lies and insane statements have become completely normalized and are largely ignored now by Big Media.

This is not the democratic republic we have lived under for 230+ years. This is strongman authoritarianism. The Republican Party is completely out of control and drunk with power.

Stephen Miller just posted this. $50,000 of taxpayers money for a signing bonus.

The man who just fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because their numbers supposedly weren’t accurate just claimed that he lowered drug prices in America by 1500%.

Should be about time for another Dan Bongino β€œreally big things are about to happen!” post, where we learn that the sinister leaders of the Deep State will be arrested any day now. It’s been about a week since the last one & that’s a long time to go without praise from the cult.

Just a reminder that Trump said he was going to hit Russia with massive sanctions on August 8. Almost here.

This and repeatedly claiming gas is $1.95 shows you how stupid Trump thinks the American people are. Given the fact that he got elected twice, who can blame him for arriving at that conclusion? bsky.app/profile/acyn...

A massive regressive national sales tax imposed upon every American by a president with no constitutional authority to impose a national sales tax. The reason why the founders gave this power to Congress is because this would never pass any Congress- even this one.

Making his first official trip to Israel. Not much of a surprise considering that’s all he has talked about since the day he got elected. He’s a one-issue Rep - and Israel is it. Not sure if that’s what his district thought they were voting for, but that’s what they’re getting.

Donald Trump’s America. None of this would be happening if Trump wasn’t trying to rig the mid-terms with a mid-decade Texas gerrymander. When will Americans finally tire of this MAGA mafia family?

I’m not understanding how refusing to speak with Ted can be held against anyone.

Trump’s gripe about revisions in the jobs report is how he played the 2020 election. Jobs numbers come in after initial report is released. They are added/subtracted from the report. Just like claiming victory on Election Day & complaining when rest of the ballots are counted.

The worst ones are people like Hassett, who are very aware that they are lying to the American people week after week on Sunday shows to cover for Trump, but do it effortlessly with a smile. In many ways worse than the brainless cultists. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Shocking that Trump would gravitate to a sport that works on an honor system where you keep your own score and are supposed to call penalties on yourself.

The very definition of β€œspecial treatment” from the Trump admin for the most notorious convicted child sex trafficker in America. Why? Because she’s protecting Trump.

By my count that is now his 30th consecutive club championship.

At least for me, any candidate in the Dem primary who doesn’t pledge to immediately return the WH and the grounds to the way it was before Trump turned it into Mar-a-Lago on the Potomac is automatically disqualified. The massive ballroom, garish gold plated foil, all of it gone.

The more I think about it, I’d have to make Lindell the frontrunner for Trump’s new Chief of Labor Statistics.

MAGA went from wanting the death penalty for child rapists to being apologists for sending them to do their time in a minimum security club fed.

All for their hero. Maxwell can hurt Trump, so she gets what she wants. And none of them will say a word about it.

The depths of depravity that the MAGA cult will go to defend Trump is vividly illustrated by this clip, where Newsmax brings the brother of convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell on in primetime to trash one of the victims who is dead and call her a liar.

Here’s the thing, I absolutely believe there is a significant percentage of MAGA who now believe that Trump is guilty of the Epstein stuff but they don’t care.
