🧵Let’s get real. While we all know 🍊💩 will lie and take credit for all of this, what both Mexico and Canada have announced is what they are already doing. This gives Trump a reason to gloat to his cult that he made these countries capitulate. apnews.com/article/trum...

The side by side of the Trump family reacting to what was essentially a message of loving your neighbor is quite something. (1/3)

There is no such thing as the “Department of Government Efficiency” IT DOES NOT EXIST. First, Trump is not president yet. Second, presidents cannot create departments on their own, without Congressional approval. Anyone saying otherwise is LYING — or FAILING at their jobs.

The flaws of Citizen United are glaring. How can a corporation be permitted to pay towards the specific election of anyone when corporations can't even vote. R's are being told directly by Musk that if they resist his directives, his companies will pay to have them primaried. It's insane.

I can’t wait until Trump decides that President Musk is stealing too much of the spotlight and jettisons him The resulting explosion will make the launch of Musk’s rockets seem lilliputian in comparison And it feels like constantly referring to Trump as second banana can only speed up the process

Ben Wikler is a very smart guy and step one, as a prelude to and eventually along side more robust, explicitly pro-Dem messaging/media, has to be having Dems be willing to go on these shows and break some eggs.

WaPo has 7 stories up about Hunter Biden pardon (which would include his alleged lie to Congress about business w/CEFC in 2018, when Biden was no longer VP and not yet running for POTUS), but is not interested in Trump just getting $18M free and clear WHILE POTUS-elect.

Joe Biden would not have pardoned Hunter if anyone else had been elected president. Under the circumstances, he did what any loving father would do. Why anyone is upset is beyond me. After all, these aren’t normal times, right?

A reminder that the orange convicted felon dangled and sold pardons to his biggest loyalists and is planning to pardon the most dangerous criminals, so if you’re upset about President Biden issuing a pardon for his son you can just shut all the way the fuck up.

Oliver has it exactly right. The propositions that Donald Trump is a pathologically lying conspiracy theorist, and that defending him (as the cases of Jennings and many others we know have long illustrated) necessitates mendacity, are provable and proven facts, not tendentious opinions.

BREAKING As expected, President-elect Trump says he intends to nominate Dr. Jay Bhattacharya as Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This nomination will receive some controversy due to his position on Covid measures but not even close to RFK Jr level controversy.
STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
I am thrilled to nominate Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, to serve as Director of the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Bhattacharya will work in cooperation with Robert
F. Kennedy Jr. to direct the Nation's Medical Research, and to make important discoveries that will improve Health, and save lives.
Jay is a Professor of Health Policy at Stanford University, a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economics Research, and a Senior Fellow by courtesy at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research, Stanford Freeman Spogli Institute, and the Hoover Institution. He directs Stanford's Center for Demography and Economics of Health and Aging. His Research focuses on the Health and Well-Being of vulnerable populations, emphasizing the role of Government programs, Biomedical Innovation, and Economics. Jay is a co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, an alternative to lockdowns proposed in October 2020.
His peer-reviewed research has been published in Economics, Statistics, Legal, Medical, Public Health, and Health Policy Journals. He holds an MD and PhD in Economics from Stanford University.
Together, Jay and RFK Jr. will restore the NIH to a Gold Standard of Medical Research as they examine the underlying causes of, and solutions to, America's biggest Health challenges, including our Crisis of Chronic Illness and Disease.
Together, they will work hard to Make America Healthy Again!
