Every day things are being done at home and abroad by this regime that will take decades to undo and the stain of which will mark America forever Too few understand that permanent damage is being done to our country by the hour—even considering that we only know a fraction of it

I'll say it for the thousandth time: No legitimate news organization has any business being in the White House press briefing room. If a source lies to you repeatedly, you stop using that source. Period. The only thing you gain by proximity to this administration is access to propaganda.

He took an economy that had been growing for 4 years and threw it in the toilet. He lost every trade deal negotiation and destroyed foreign markets for US products. He has damaged the entire global energy supply system because of his ego-driven warmongering. And the biggest hits are yet to come.

January 6th was conceived by the Republican Party to attempt to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. It resulted in 5 deaths, over 100 police injured and $2.7 billion in property damage. It was a failed coup. Giving the attackers $1.776 billion for it is Trump's middle finger to all of America.

Markets are predicting an 85% chance we flip the House and a 65% chance we flip the Senate. Can you imagine Trump in a world with actual checks and balances? Neither can he. That's why he's desperately trying to rig the election.

I love how the orange felon confirmed yesterday that Putin’s Russia did in fact try to help him win by interfering in US elections. Anyone who read the Mueller Report already knew that MAGA-Russia wasn’t a hoax, it was and always has been a giant criminal conspiracy. Good morning.

If there's one thing Americans can agree on, it's that there's too much money in politics. But the Supreme Court just decided to demolish some of the last safeguards we had left - creating an even bigger role for special interest spending.

He destroyed the economy. He surrendered to Iran. He bulldozed half the White House. He ruined the reflecting pool and blamed imaginary vandals. He is rapidly deteriorating mentally and physically. He’s in the files. He cannot escape the crushing weight of his own failures.

BTW, John Roberts owns ALL of this. No chance a POTUS would act like this unless someone planted the notion that they can get away w/ basically anything. As insane as Trump has always been, he didn’t try this stuff when he feared the threat of consequences. Then John <poof> took ‘em away. Nice job👍
