Very disappointing.
On this @60Minutes interview. Trump lies as he breathes. He lies every time he opens his mouth. We’ve never ever faced this before. And the media still has no fucking clue how to deal with it. It is pointless to interview him if you don’t fact check his lies. It’s just pointless.

I skimmed the 60 Mins transcript. They edited out some of the crazier shit he said, and his glee about Bari Weiss and CBS’s “new ownership.” But Norah O’Donnell also just let him ramble and deflect and say crazy lies uninterrupted. In other democracies, interviewers don’t tolerate that.
Is there *anything* Felon47 and his pack of thieves won’t ruin?

GOP all year: “we will never negotiate with Democrats we own the whole government suck it!!”

GOP TODAY: “Gosh golly if they would just bail us out we’d be happy to negotiate why are they so unreasonable?”

Dems: “uh, here in dc to negotiate..”

But now she has 175 million dollars worth of private jets so problem solved.
Yet in 2010, Noem—then a congressional candidate—had “20 speeding tickets, three stop-sign violations, two seat-belt violations and a citation for driving with no driver’s license.” She had six court notices for failing to appear, and had two warrants out for her arrest. trib.al/uQSDaqR

One of the best gifts from the US to the world.

And they ended because it was a gift. Can’t have kindness and compassion without a transaction with this Administration
I’m inspired by hundreds of former USAID federal workers still fighting for democracy, development and community action. Trump and DOGE may have snuffed out USAID, and sacrificed hundreds of thousands of former beneficiaries, but the spirit and solidarity of its staff persist.
So did Sen Roger Marshall (KS)
I've known John Thune for many many years. Fuck him!!!
Reminder that this performative clown spent the Fourth of July 2018 in Moscow with Ron Johnson and other traitors.

They tear-gassed kids last week.
FOX: Pritzker has asked you specifically to pause immigration enforcement operations in Chicago so kids can safety celebrate Halloween. Do you have any plans to alter activity tomorrow?

NOEM: No. We're gonna be out on the streets in full force and increase our activities to make sure kids are safe.

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.
This is sure to go well 🤦‍♂️

Citizens United began America's death spiral

presidential immunity ... ensured there'd be no escape from it.

ty for the comment, Corbyn
I count that decision as the moment democracy entered its death spiral.

And the one giving the president immunity as the closing of the casket.

My two takeaways on this:

1. CNN's CEO is utterly craven. No surprise there.

2. The White House is getting very nervous about how poorly the demolition of the East Wing is going over with most Americans. Good.
Apparently, "Good at lying" is the number one criteria for GOP leadership, and "Blame someone else" is number two.

"Wah-wah-wah, the mean Senate won't reopen"
Mike Johnson: "Democrats are required to open the government. They keep saying, 'Republicans are in charge of government.' We aren't!"
