With 45 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Massive protests in Dublin show exactly how Ireland feels about Donald Trump's visit. From anti-war demonstrations to political pushback over his Irish unification remarks, the tension is running high. Here is the local coverage from @news.rte.ie #Trump #Ireland

'ARREST TRUMP': Protestors HALT IRISH OPEN; Thousands Take To Shannon Airport, Dublin Streets
Donald Trump’s Ireland visit has sparked fierce protests stretching from Dublin to County Clare, with demonstrators lining the streets, waving Irish, Palestinian and Iranian flags and confronting the president’s motorcade. Trump arrived at Shannon Airport on September 12 to a formal welcome from Irish ministers, but protesters nearby carried blunt messages including “NO RED CARPET FOR TRUMP” and “U.S.A. WAR MACHINE OUT OF SHANNON.” Thousands later gathered in Dublin, while Trump’s arrival in Clare triggered heightened security, low-flying helicopters and tighter airport-style measures around his movements. #donaldtrump #trump #trumpnews #trumpireland #ireland #dublin #irelandprotests #trumpprotests #irishopen #breakingnews PROTESTERS AT THE 7TH GREEN AT THE IRISH OPEN | TRUMP INTERNATIONAL GOLF LINKS & HOTEL DOONBEG IRELAND | PROTESTERS DRAGGED OFF GREEN AT IRISH OPEN DURING CHAOTIC DONALD TRUMP VISIT | TRUMP NOT WELCOME | TRUMP IRELAND PROTESTS | TRUMP GOLF COURSE PROTESTS If it's trending, explosive or controversial, you'll find it first on Times Buzz.

This is utterly deranged.
Screenshot of a post by Nick Schifrin (@nickschifrin) on X/Twitter. The post reads:

“NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:

Dear Ambassador:

President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]

‘Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT’”
