1/2 🧵Trump sleeping during the day? Forget the sleeping. Ask the next question. Who's in the room deciding what's WORTH waking him for? Nobody voted for THAT person. And the last man who told this President bad news is now a "negative force."

Flip the House and subpoena power flips with it. $2.25B in foreign payments tied to the Trump family. The pardons. The energy deals. The Epstein files.Right now it's a spreadsheet nobody can act on. In January it becomes a HEARING room. That's what ONE election buys. Ready to do this?

If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.

Trump has not once called on Putin to stop bombing civilian population centers, which he targets daily. Witkoff & Kushner never said that to Putin. We cut off Patriots to Ukraine for air defense. But now he demands Ukraine stop bombing refineries while Russia murders civilians.
