The #GOP supports #Russia, which support #Iran while we continue a pointless war with #Iran. The GOP is attacking America and supporting our enemies indirectly and directly. None of this would be happening if the GOP in congress didn't keep #Trump in power. This is the main #election issue #VoteBlue

After the 2nd World War, there were people who had supported #Hitler, and lived with the shame for the rest of their lives. Anyone who votes for a #GOP candidate or chooses not to vote in this election can't say that they didn't know. People will lie that they didn't support him. /1 #Trump #Election

And they cheer #Trump encouraging fraud, while also lying that there was fraud against Trump. The #GOP members in Congress are complicit, even any who try to not take a side. If they didn't support him, he'd have been impeached long ago. #VoteBlue

It's so obvious to rational people. #MAGAs might expect people to be proud of them, just like those who supported Hitler probably did. #VoteBlue

After banning 3 networks for doing their job in holding the administration to account, the #Trump administration is clearly threating the remaining ones. Being banned is an indication that an organisation is not afraid to report the truth when it is unfavorable to Trump. /4 #FreeSpeech #GOP

John Lambe @johnblambe.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

and they're entitled to do that. The problem is their lying and disinformation. #FreeSpeech means that each network is free to choose what stories it reports, and their choices probably reflect their viewers interests. /2

Story selection bias was never a valid reason to exclude a news organisation. It's not why Breitbart was excluded. Moral people consider political corruption and illegality (inc. the Epstein files) to be newsworthy. #Fox and Breitbart might consider a minor favorable story to be more newsworthy, /1

hiring #stupid unqualified people, for example, #RFK, whose anti-science policies lead to the spread of measles, among other things. (But it's because he chooses people for their corrupt loyalty to him, rather than competence, and *that* approach is rational for a #dictator.) /13 #Trump #stupidity

And that's without talking about the serious major #stupid things #Trump does, either against advice, or after firing people who would have known better. I don't have time to list them all, but some examples are the #Iran war; threatening allies; /11 #stupidity

- Bizarre claims about nature, science and climate. And his anti-science, anti-rationality position in general. (His anti-education position is not #stupid though: An educated public is bad for #dictators.) - His many #ConspiracyTheories. /10 #Trump #stupidity

- Thinking his basic knowledge is exceptional: - He boasted of knowing how to spell "dumb", claiming that most people can't. - He brags of passing a dementia screening test (and it's likely that he's either lying about that or cheated, considering how much he lies). #DunningKruger /9 #Trump

John Lambe @johnblambe.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Of course, only #Trump is promising this, not the whole #GOP, and Trump does not have power to do it (giving him another excuse for not paying it). But, maybe the funniest part is #Trump supposedly opposing "socialism" while promising to give free money. /3 #5000bribe

John Lambe @johnblambe.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

And every #GOP candidate shares responsibility for this. They kept him in office, protected from impeachment, supported his policies, and in most cases, supported his attack on democracy, and spread his lies. /10

#Trump's promise of a $5000 bribe for electing Republicans is so stupid on so many levels: - First, it involves trusting a convict who told over 30,000 lies in his first term alone; - Not only that, but he made multiple promises just like this one, to pay citizens; /1 #$5000 #bribe #USDemocracy

John Lambe @johnblambe.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Surely only #MAGAs are stupid enough to believe that, like all his other promises, including the $5k bribe to voters ($1.25 trillion total) and #DOGE checks. Why is #Trump waiting until after the election to solve all problems? After the election, he has no incentive to do anything for the people.

In August 2019, Iceland placed a plaque, addressed to the people of the future, to mark a glacier that lost its status as a glacier due to #ClimateChange. It reads: "... This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it."

A plaque that reads: "A letter to the future.
Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier.
In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done.
Only you know if we did it.

#MAGAs lose money on #Trump investments and blame Democrats. Well, Trump loves the uneducated and says "Smart people don't like me". He can always count on them to con out of money and they don't even know that they've been conned. #TrumpGrift #GOP

#Trump's new Air Force One (Qatari bribe) has false books, most or all with the same title: "Library" - a library with only copies of one false book. It's fitting for people who only pretend to read books: They wouldn't notice. www.msn.com/en-ie/news/w... /1 #AirForceOne #Trump

#Rubio is a citizen due to the 14th Amendment, but still opposes birthright citenzenship. And we should be concerned that such a clear constitutional question was not decided unanimously by #SCOTUS. These are the sort of judges #Putin has. #GOP

This is the mentality of people who vote for Republicans, or who don't bother to vote, or choose not to vote because they say that the parties are the same: #GOP #MAGA #Trump #NoKings #authoritarianism

(While also lying about Democrats weaponizing the #DOJ - when #January6 actual criminals were prosecuted.) As with supposed election fraud, he claims to have seen evidence but won't show it. And there were cameras on it. Now, he's putting up a fence purely to keep up the pretence of vandalism. /6

John Lambe @johnblambe.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

#Trump is having people arrested for supposedly vandalising the #ReflectingPool (touching paint or water), with no evidence, rather than admit that his "renovation" was (predictably) a disaster because of his incompetence and stupidity. /5 #NoKings

or just a bad job.) The length of the supposed "gash" is inconsistent in his statements (250 or 350 feet). And the Reflecting Pool is part of a broader pattern: Destroying a wing of the White House, the Rose Garden, and the lawn. /4 #Trump #GOP

He claims that someone poured "corrosive and destructive" chemicals into the pool. This is true, but it was his administration that poured in the hydrogen peroxide. youtu.be/J7YO_sSjEaY?... (That's probably not the main cause though. It might have been #Trump's motorcade driving on it, /3

I haven't heard people saying that it's 1000 times worse. Adjusted for inflation, the monetary amount (based on those numbers) would be much more than 175 times worse. And in Obama's case, it was Iran's money that money that we legally had to return. /1 #NoKings

Just one of the many examples of predictable adverse affects of Trump's cuts on the #US. To #Trump and #DOGE, monitoring diseases in livestock is "waste". Cutting it enabled cutting taxes on the ultra-rich, but costs the country. Even before DOGE, he cut funding for pandemic preparedness, /1

#Trump (with the support of the #GOP) is suing the US and directing his DOJ to pay him on behalf of us (the people of the US). Don't forget this when voting in November. #NoKings #DictatorTrump

@DarrigoMelanie
Let me get this straight.
Trump, the only president since Nixon not to release his tax returns, and who promised he would release his tax returns when he was president, is suing the government for $10 billion dollars in "damages" for leaked tax returns which reveal his corruption.
And his DOJ, which is run by his personal lawyer who he appointed as "Acting AG," is going to settle.
So the American people are now gong to personally pay a corrupt president $10 billion of our hard earned tax dollars, because his feelings got hurt when his shady tax returns were leaked?
Got it.
