🚨🚨 Wow. Trump just gave the middle finger to his own supporters. Amid growing backlash over his decision to drag the U.S. into another Middle East war, Trump now says that “America First” means whatever he says it does—while falsely claiming he invented the term.

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

Take a close look at how Vance and Trump have been talking about going to war in the past 24 hours. Vance: “We never ask you to go to war unless you absolutely have to” Trump: “It’s possible we could get involved”

Mamdani: This military parade the other day is a perfect example of everything that’s wrong with the MAGA movement—a focus on pomp and circumstance over actually addressing the needs of working- and middle-class Americans.

No one should have to face violence or death for standing up for what they believe in. Here is the late Melissa Hortman, eight years ago standing up to the patriarchy in support of People of Color, specifically women. We carry her legacy. May she and her husband rest in peace. 🕊️

Josh Hawley hasn’t found his soul, friends. He is just making sure that Missouri billionaires aren’t on the hook for funding Medicaid expansion. Medicaid cuts will have to be made up at the state level and the wealthy won’t get their tax cuts if they defund Medicaid at the federal level.

Guess who was right in the thick of the assault on @padilla.senate.gov? Corey Lewandowski. (He may have been the guy instructing that there's no recording at a press conference and seems to have realized how badly they fucked up.)
A screencap from a video posted by Peter Hamby. It shows that a cop taking the cuffs on Senator Padilla, with Lewandowski, wearing a black jacket with what might be a Homeland Security logo, watching.

So Kristi Noem goes on Fox and lies that Sen Padilla didn’t ID himself, even though the video is there for all to see. But get what she’s saying: Assaulting and handcuffing someone for trying to ask a question is OK in any case? This is a criminal regime.

Trump has appointed the same man, Steve Witkoff, as the U.S. envoy for peace talks involving Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Hamas and Israel/Iran. It would test the powers even of a veteran diplomat--a Henry Kissinger or Philip Habib--to conduct three disparate sets of negotiations at once. bit.ly/45jFrXL
