"If there is one thing Truth Social is good for these days, it is that it somewhat reliably tracks the 79-year old president's cognitive decline. . . .

"It is time for a serious discussion about the 25th amendment to the U.S. Constitution."

Nailed it @jimacosta.bsky.social! This truly is "The WTF Presidency". Sadly many innocent Americans will die because of the cowardice displayed by the GOP, @speakerjohnson.bsky.social and everyone who voted for nut case RFK, Jr.

The WTF Presidency

How much worse will Trump get before serious 25th Amendment conversations begin?

On the heels of James Comey's indictment, Trump and his regime have turned their sights on NY AG Letitia James. I sit down with @jimacosta.bsky.social to discuss the James indictment and MAGA's ongoing mission to prosecute their enemies.

The Trump admin has begun ANOTHER mass firing of federal workers.

People are losing their jobs over Republicans' unwillingness to end this government shutdown.

Livelihoods are on the line.

This is a disgusting abuse of power.

Trump will help pedophiles like Ghislaine Maxwell, not release the Epstein Files, and pardon violent insurrectionists, but he'll unleash ICE to terrorize innocent Americans.

Trump has sought emergency intervention by the Supreme Court 28 times in the first eight months of his new term, more than Bush, Obama and Biden did combined over 20 years. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Trump’s Flood of Emergency Appeals Is Straining the Judicial System

The administration has turned to the Supreme Court at a record pace, and the justices have issued orders that lower courts have struggled to interpret.
