Hypocrite tRump sued CBS for โdeceptive editingโ of Harrisโ 60 Minutes interview, pocketed $16M (lied & claimed $38M), then sat for his own 40-minute interviewโonly for CBS to air 13 minutes. Heโs fine with the cuts now? Rules for thee, not for me. mcsp.short.gy/m0tZ
Katie Miller just blamed the WHCD assassination attempt on Gavin Newsom because the shooterโs from California. Newsomโs reply: tRump calls Democrats โverminโ & โdemonic,โ cheers Jan 6, and threatens his enemies. The real violent rhetoric is coming from the Oval Office. mcsp.short.gy/Ygid
The premise of the Reichstag Fire is to orchestrate a crisis that gives a public perception justification to do what you always wanted to do. To convince the public the extra security is necessary. Graham demanding $400m taxpayer $ for a ballroom 48 hrs after a crisis was staged is peak Nazi.
An attempt is referred to as an inchoate, or incomplete crime. With attempt charges, the key questions center around whether the defendant had the intent to commit the underlying crime and whether he took a substantial stepโmore than mere preparationโtoward completing it. Here the case looks solid.
We're paying to destroy our green energy projects at the same time gas and utility prices are skyrocketing thanks to Trump's stupid war. All because the president is an idiot who doesn't understand how anything works, and also because he's determined to undo every good thing President Biden did.
Going out on a limb but I think this may be the end of the White House Correspondents Dinner, at least with POTUS invited. Yesterday I worried weโd have to endure this is 30 days again. But they canโt pull it off. And today I feel like all the coverage has highlighted how icky the whole thing is.
Why don't reporters ever play Trump clips to him on their phones while interviewing him? Serious question. Norah O'Donnell, for example, could have played montage of Trump making violent statements , fantasizing killing, attacking people. Or even just read his own posts to him.
Oil is at $100 and the ceasefire holds, but the real stories are in the margins: the DHS shutdown's impact on Coast Guard families, the Tricare payment crisis, and the rise of AI "Army influencers." Get the full briefing on these and the Hormuz standoff below. open.substack.com/pub/votevete...
Fed-up Hakeem Jeffries eviscerated tRumpโs press secretary Karoline Leavitt, calling her a โdisgraceโ & โstone-cold liar.โ She blamed Dems for the WHCD shooting while ignoring MAGAโs Jan 6 violence & tRumpโs nonstop threats. Classic projection from a WH drowning in hypocrisy. mcsp.short.gy/Kkz7
Telling young people the stakes are existential wonโt work. They always are. What will is to create a community thatโs worth returning to, and letting the politics follow. I wrote about what effective youth organizing looks like ๐ santiagomayer.substack.com/p/campus-org...
"A Masterclass in Manipulation" | @hankgreen.bsky.social debunks right wing Koch-funded (www.desmog.com/reason-found...) @reason.com's latest disinformation efforts on climate (including their incoherent attack on the #HockeyStick: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSgD...
tRumpโs HHS pick RFK Jr. just rammed through a CDC change delaying hepatitis B vaccines for newborns of negative moms. Result? Hundreds more infections, chronic liver disease, & millions in extra costs. We nearly ERADICATED this. MAGA anti-vax ideology is bringing it back. mcsp.short.gy/XnEy
In tRump's America, fighting back against the KKK is now "terrorism." His DOJ indicted the SPLC for infiltrating hate groups to expose them. Absurd MAGA revenge weaponizing justice against civil rights opponents. This will be tRump's template for prosecuting the entire USA left. mcsp.short.gy/qTu4
tRump torpedoed himself on 60 Minutes. A manifesto called someone a โpedophile, rapist & traitor.โ tRump wasnโt namedโyet he immediately screamed โIโm not a rapist. I didnโt rape anybody. Iโm not a pedophile.โ Reopening Epstein + E. Jean Carroll in one unhinged breath. mcsp.short.gy/I6kx
In 2010 Florida voters amended their Constitution to prevent partisan gerrymandering Now DeSantis says-without any judicial order or new law-that the Supreme Court is โsignalingโ a change So he wants to invalidate the Constitutional amendment THAT THE VOTERS JUST APPROVED #StopIllegalFloridaMaps
