Gov. Shapiro: "This administration made outrageous claims that there were thousands and thousands of ineligible voters. We asked them for the information. We asked them to show us the facts. And, of course, they didn't."

“I can do whatever I want, if I want” is the essence of Trumpism. Trump hates the constitution, our rights, and the American people. MAGA leaders are pathetic losers who want to bow down to a dying pedophile.

There's no real point in arguing with his mouth noises, particularly not when preaching to the Bluesky choir, but this is *noteworthy* nonsense. If the revenue were real (it's not), then it would be revenue *of the United States government,* equally available to a Democratic Congress to spend.

Why is Trump planning to shutter the Kennedy Center? Because they told him to take his name off the building, and a malignant narcissist can’t accept rejection. He can’t accept defeat. He can’t accept not getting his way. It’s the same reason he will never concede losing in 2020…

Donald Trump has done far more to curtail free speech than any recent president. His actions to use government power & private lawsuits to bully private citizens are unprecedented. Great recounting which also relays Trump's false promises that he would protect free speech. Worth keeping track:
