Let's normalise backing up our stated facts on social media (about anything important and contentious) with source links.

If we're the ones with verifiable truth on our side, then let's draw that distinction at every available opportunity. Make taking an Internet stranger's word for it weird again.

Trump kowtows to Putin again. But appeasing aggressors never ends well.

"The higher you go up the political ranks, the more likely it is that people will see Trump not as an object of idolization but as a tool for them to achieve their own goals; they follow him only so long as they’re something in it for them."
More and more elite Republicans are realizing that their interests and Donald Trump's are diverging, which is why we'll see more of them breaking with him in the coming days.

Vetted to serve the CIA, vetted to enter the US, vetted (in 2025) and received asylum by Drumpf regime.

Judge Boxwine has Faux Syndrome - she knows nothing outside the right-wing propaganda bubble. And she's uncommonly proud of her ignorance.
Jeanine Pirro: "Look, there was no vetting. If you think there was vetting I have a bridge to sell you. If you see the chaos that was going on at that airport in Kabul in Afghanistan, it was typical of what was going on in the Biden administration."

The side that doesn't think soldiers should even be deployed as law enforcement while also believing in common sense gun regulations is actually the side that doesn't want anyone to get shot at all.

Have another drink, hon.
US Attorney Jeanine Pirro: "There's a part of me that thinks the left is disappointed that the National Guard didn't shoot someone ... they should thank God that President Trump is the president."

Every GOP governor of a state who allowed their National Guard to be commandeered for these illegal deployments deserves the same contempt the president is getting.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

If everything that Trump says is the opposite of what the Bible says Jesus said, does that make Trump the anti-Christ?
Average American Thanksgiving: President declares total ban on immigration, calls an esteemed democratic governor a slur, and then goes on TV to talk about Somalis like animals when asked about a mass shooting by a former child soldier and member of a CIA associated death squad.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

When you are the imbecilic child of the privileged elite who has become accustomed to spewing nonsense, with no pushback, your entire life, this is the only way you know how to respond to insightful questioning.
Q: You said this suspect was flown in under the Biden admin. But was he granted asylum under your administration?

TRUMP: Uh, when it comes to asylum, when they're flown in, it's very hard to get them out no matter how you want to do it. But we're gonna be getting them all out now. *slams table*

Reporter pops the obvious question so offhandedly that Trump actually answers.

Nothing. The picture the President had someone print out to bring with him has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand—it’s racial scapegoating so naked he can’t even be bothered to cloak it in reality anymore.
TRUMP: If you look at Somalia, they are taking over Minnesota.

REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?

TRUMP: Ah, nothing. But Somalians have caused a lot of trouble. They're ripping us off.

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?
