Just like that outdated tool in your garage, it’s time for an upgrade to something that actually gets the job done. The same can be said for Trump, who seems to have misplaced his marbles entirely!

We won’t be distracted. Everybody knows that East Coast Elites ran a child sex trafficking ring. Release the files.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's a grown-up thing—let's be honest, I preferred indulging in them rather than smoking them. They’re just too sweet to resist! And I've still got most of my own teeth. 😁

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

Karoline Leavitt should resign.

They try to make us hate each other to distract from the fact that they're robbing us all blind.

It's sick.

Leavitt: "The Democrat Party's main constituency is made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."

This is such an odd statement that could only be made by a shallow and deeply damaged person. Mike Johnson is scoffing at making sure people don't die because giving tax cuts to billionaires is all he cares about.

Mike Johnson: "Let me predict what Sen. Kelly is gonna say on the show. He's gonna give you a long, impassioned speech about healthcare and how the subsidies are so important to make sure people don't die and all of this. Let me tell you something. This is not a healthcare fight."

Sydney Reid acquitted.

This was a case where someone filming was assaulted, and then arrested and charged with felony assault.

The grand jury no billed that, so they took her to trial on a misdemeanor charge. There were a bunch of discovery problems.

And now this.

Kudos to the FPDS!

A verdict form for Sydney Lori Reid. She was found Not Guilty.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Newsom: We were under the understanding that we were going to close I-5 — up to 80,000 vehicles tomorrow and Saturday. They seemed to have backed off of that. They were going to move forward with a display, but they’re not clearly sharing that with state officials.

Hochul: "They promised to extract revenge on their political enemies & apparently any state that has a D gov. Tell me how Florida & Texas could receive these same funds w/o having to go to court? They're playing politics, but more than that, they're playing with people's lives. And that's abhorrent"

In his seminal work "1984," Orwell articulated the paradoxical assertion that "war is peace." This observation resonates profoundly in our current context. Furthermore, Orwell emphasized the ultimate decree of The Party: "Deny the evidence of your own eyes."

I didn’t think this was true at first. Then I remembered Trump seriously floated the idea of stopping hurricanes by nuking them. The man’s unhinged.

It is possible that advancements in science and medicine will lead to significantly longer lifespans for individuals in the future. However, ultimately, we must all acknowledge the inevitability of our mortality.
