Trump says a war is not a war, therefore the War Powers Act doesn’t apply. Trump says political ads are not ads they are “public service announcements,” therefore the laws banning the use of taxpayer $ don’t apply. The gangster govt changes the meaning of words to avoid the law

Polish FM Sikorski: "Kremlin’s assets frozen in Europe are never going back to Russia. They can be used in the future as war reparations or to help Ukraine rebuild, or they can be used now to help prevent further destruction and make future reconstruction cheaper."

Funny Pete...go down to Verse 16 and 17 for a minute. No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. 17A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.

The mass shootings in the Babyn Yar ravine began 85 years ago. Backed by the Wehrmacht, members of the SS and the police murdered over 33,000 Jews within two days. The Nazis killed about 100,000 people there in total. The victims also included Sinti and Roma, Soviet POW, and alleged partisans. #otd

Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

“I never lied to Congress. I did explain truthfully that my office did not delve into domestic media outlets, as the transcript makes quite clear. My colleagues and I did not censor American citizens. Our actual work was to expose Russian cognitive warfare, which we did again and again and again.”

Trump and Republicans are terrified of policies that curb their own wealth and power, and the wealth and power of the oligarchs that bankroll them. That's why they're amping up the fearmongering about "socialism."

I'm with Jamelle here. People aren't primarily interested in going back to a standard level of dysfunction in Congress; people want accountability and consequences. In fact, a functional Congress moving forward essentially REQUIRES it via disincentivizing lawlessness and corruption. Do what's right.
