WELKER: Do you bear any responsibility to bring down the temperature? FREY: Of course. But I dropped an F bomb and they killed somebody. I think the killing somebody is the inflammatory element here and not the F bomb.

Trump has just declared himself the "acting president of Venezuela" over on Truth Social in case you're wondering about his mental health.

"Hate to tell you this, hon, but it takes two to have sex." No, I didn't want this. I told him no. He forced himself on me. "What are you trying to do? Ruin his life?" I just want him to be held accountable for what he did. It was wrong! He stole my virginity! "Well, nobody will believe you anyway."

The President is calling for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged. This is deplorable, un-American, & an open invitation to political violence. Servicemembers take their oath to the Constitution, not to any president. I stand with my colleagues who have honorably served this nation.

Democrats: "Troops have a constitutional obligation to disobey illegal orders." Republicans: "Democrats are organizing a violent mutiny against our President!!!" The President: "Democrats should be put to death!" Republicans: "He didn't mean it literally; that's how he shows strength and unity."

They are hate symbols, no matter what the Coast Guard puts in its revised regulations.
A tweet from “The Washington Post @washingtonpost” reads:
“Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.
The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as ‘potentially divisive.’”

“I don’t know and I don’t care” should be the new MAGA motto. So accurate. Says it all.
A tweet from “Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom” reads: “That’s how it’s gonna be. Not even the pretense of rationalizations.”
Below is a tweet from “Acyn @Acyn” quoting a Fox News exchange:
“Jessica: Why do you think Ghislaine Maxwell is in a minimum security prison and is basically being waited on…
Watters: I don’t know and I don’t care.”
The image shows a Fox News host speaking on-air with a chyron that reads: “EPSTEIN QUICKSAND — DEMS GET CAUGHT IN PEDOPHILE’S WEB AS EMAILS RELEASED.”

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.
The image is an X post by Acyn (@Acyn
) from 13 hours ago, quoting Pritzker: "He's saying that Chicago is a war zone. None of that is true. They're just making this up. And then what do they do? They fire tear gas and smoke grenades, and they make it look like it's a war zone." The post includes a screenshot from CNN's "State of the Union" showing two individuals discussing, with a chyron indicating DHS officers fired at a driver who rammed their vehicle, later determined to be someone trying to storm the Presidential Palace, as the South Caucasus Coalition.

NEW: Trump is designating "Antifa" a terrorist organization (though there's no legal mechanism to do - but the law doesn't matter anymore.) He's using the Kirk murder to justify going after democrats. Those of us who read Project 2025 knew this was coming - but that provides little comfort.
