So... with that direct line to the secretary, the Office will report whenever anything happens that suggests our nation is not "blessed?" Or is not following the Bible? Or has too little testosterone? Just like the founders intended, or something?

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Babyn Yar. 85 years since the tragedy. On September 29–30, 1941, nearly 34,000 Jews were murdered here by the Nazis. Around 100,000 innocent people lost their lives at Babyn Yar during the occupation.

Trump thinks that because he's changed the name of AI, now all concerns expressed about it previously are a hoax. The illogic is breathtaking. (Note that in this clip he's also lying about economic growth.)

Trump’s insatiable need for admiration has become a pathology. Republicans are enabling it. Now he wants his name on the theater where Abraham Lincoln died. Meanwhile Americans keep suffering. It’s honestly outrageous.

Here's Trump casually threatening to "annihilate" Iran in front of the UN Assembly. What he’s saying would constitute war crimes. This man has the nuclear codes. It’s astounding how hellbent he is on violating domestic and international law practically every time he opens his mouth. Horrifying.
