Let me be specific: Donald Trump is an f-ing traitor. He is in cahoots with Putin and Russia to break our democratic ally, Ukraine, which makes all of us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/w...

In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government. But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.

The GOP never seems to know the details of the biggest stories out there. Don't go on network talk shows if you haven't read the papers.
Screenshot of a tweet from Aaron Rupar (@atrupar). The tweet quotes a “Meet the Press” exchange: Kristen Welker asks how Trump can claim to protect Arkansas from drugs despite pardoning the former president of Honduras, who trafficked over 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S. Tom Cotton responds that he hasn’t spoken to the president about the pardon and needs to know more about the circumstances. Below the tweet is an image from the interview showing Senator Tom Cotton seated in a studio, wearing a dark suit and red-striped tie, with the NBC “Meet the Press” logo visible behind him.

If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."
