The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

I love how the conceal carry is only great when it’s convenient for the right.
29 states have constitutional carry
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

Trump lies with such belief in his lies. I don’t even think he believes he’s lying, he’s just recreating reality as he would like it to be. The world continues to bend to his will but I hope we may be seeing the end of trumps alternate reality sooner than later. #trump

The problem was that the Danes all had bone spurs.
Trump: "No nation is in any position to be able to secure Greenland other than the US. We're a great power. Much greater than people even understand. I think they found that out 2 weeks ago in Venezuela. We saw this in World War 2 when Denmark fell to Germany after just 6 hours of fighting."

Quite honestly the last straw should have been January 6th. However, this is where America finds themselves and the rest of us will pay the price.
The message of Trump’s letter to the prime minister of Norway signals that the president “genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him,” @anneapplebaum.bsky.social argues. theatln.tc/U0fviLiM

Leavitt: Why was she killed?
Reporter: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably

I'm shocked but somewhat pleased the mainstream media is going all Watergate on the Hegseth war crimes in the Caribbean. "Morning Joe" (yes, I know, don't @ me) has talked about little else for 2 hours
I'm not 100% convinced that this is the turning point but it might be, with Trump at just 36%

No chance of that. Republicans are terrified of trump and any blow-back from not being in lock step with him. Trump will go full speed trying to steal next year’s election.
And btw, for those of you who think Republican candidates & elected officials are now going to run AWAY from Trump, bullshit. Every single Republican alive is way too far up Trump’s colon to ever be able to run anywhere.
