Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

Even people who are hypnotized don't do harmful acts or get caught up in a shuffle they don't agree with--things they know are wrong. The people on Jan 6 had a desire for destruction, and they were just waiting for the right moment to use it. Trump gave them their moment and encouraged them.

I have to use Express Scripts for my medication delivery. I've lost count how many times my refills have been delayed because they are short on medications. How is that even possible? Who is to blame for this? The pharmacy or the makers or the politicians, or a combination of all 3? #healthcare

He's on Piers Morgan rather than in some detention center in a country he's never been to, yet we should listen to his tearful tale of being deported? Interesting though that he was put in manacles.

This sounded especially bizarre to me. So I looked it up. Duffy seems to have confused the EPA ending a credit for “engines that automatically turn off when vehicles come to a complete stop and restart when drivers take their feet off the brake pedal” with the START buttons that are now universal.

I wasn't a Transformers kid growing up, but I certainly was a Winnie the Pooh kid. As an avid viewer of "The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh" I was very familiar with Peter Cullen's take on Eeyore, a role which he added his own touch to while staying true what came before. He will be missed. RIP

They could've used so many other words than grieving. Thieving. Desperate. Frantic. Losing. Failing. Defeated. The lasts thing I think Trump is doing is grieving. That's an insult to those of us who really are grieving someone.

I kept rereading that parenthetical quote until I think I understand. Directors should only use actors who never express political views cuz we are not smart enough to separate real life from movie portrayals; therefore, liberal actor=woke. But OK if the actor is vocally conservative, I'm guessing.

I lived in Perdido Key, FL. It wasn't unusual to be on the beach and see the Blue Angles on their practice runs, but never over the beach, always at a safe distance over the water. This was showboating and putting people in danger. And there was a time when they would be grounded for that.

Again and again, this administration exemplifies it's corruption and it's disdain for the independent role of the DOJ. Trump is racing the clock to get everything he wants to do done or started cuz he's afraid the ease of his corruption will end in November. I don't even recognize this country.
