I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

BREAKING: Donald Trump tells NBC News that Elon Musk will face “very serious consequences” if he funds Democratic candidates. Like Musk or not, a president threatening private citizens over political donations isn’t just wrong, it’s authoritarianism.

MAGA has no integrity. The second they turn on one another, they weaponize the law. Steve Bannon calling Musk an “illegal alien” is breathtakingly shortsighted. No humanity or morality among them. It's just performance art. And no, a JD Vance regime wouldn't have more depth, just fewer felonies.

Reminder that every accusation that: Trump tosses at Musk about his corruption & incompetence was known to him for the 130 days he had Musk running US government for him. Musk tosses at Trump about his frail-health & corruption & incompetence was known to him when he installed him as US President.

Trump is chickening out and trying to blame Elon for anything bad that happened to his supporters because he’s seen all the leopards eating faces posts. But it’s his fault. He wants credit for all the good things his predecessor did and none of the blame for the things HE has done.

They promised to root out waste and abuse and found none, and in the process wasted money and abused innocent people. They promised to deport 20 million people but are not getting anywhere near that, so they are desperately arresting anyone they can get their hands on whilst wearing face masks.
