3/What I have a hard time understanding is why many GOP think Trump tells the truth. He seems so open about being willing to lie (see above). 2-3 decades ago GOP would frequently say that "all politicians lie" & "you can't trust any politician." How did they go from that to this?

2/ An example: Trump recently got his worst poll numbers, & within a week posted about having the "highest poll numbers of my political career." He knows polls are low (after a record long shutdown, Epstein drama, tariff woes, etc.), but lies to make the narrative more favorable.

🧵1/"You say things sometimes in a campaign."

This encapsulates Trump's approach. He doesn't really believe all the things he says. He just says whatever he thinks will help him politically or set the narrative he wants.

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.

Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

Due to the Trump administration's failure to appoint responsible management to oversee the nation's health, the New England Journal of Medicine and the Center for Infectious Disease Research will begin publishing public health alerts.

Competent leadership, after all, must come from somewhere.

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.

📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.

Prosecute her and everyone involved.

That Jair Bolsonaro is serving a 27 year prison sentence in Brazil for attempting a coup, while an America president who did the same thing is not only free, but trying to help him escape is exactly the kind of thing that makes the U.S. a third world country.

Sen. Mark Kelly on MS NOW: "I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane. I've been nearly shot down multiple times … My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head, six people killed around her … We know what political violence is.  And we know what causes it, too."

Sen. Mark Kelly says a president demanded lawmakers be **hanged** for telling the truth. That’s not anger—it’s an unhinged bid for power above the law. America survives only when leaders answer to the Constitution, not one man’s rage. And we cannot afford to look away.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.
