X users immediately pounced: “Uh oh. Trump accidentally boosted anti-Trump account ‘Impeach Trump a 3rd Time!’” wrote Patriot Takes. “Grandpa has trouble reading,” another user said.
But while Trump was making a digital fool of himself, his rhetoric was anything but harmless.

Trump’s tax and spending law set loan limits on graduate programs based on whether they are “professional.” The Education Department didn’t categorize nursing graduate programs as “professional,” so those students may face borrowing limits.

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home.
They are lawless bestial scum.

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

Trump’s golf tab is back in the news, and the numbers aren’t small. A new analysis says he’s burned through about $71 million in taxpayer-funded golf trips just this year, and if he keeps going at this pace, the total for this term could blow past $300 million.

I won’t even speak to them. I broke up with some very close people. I told them when they break out of the cult let me know.
One was my very best, living in deep red country. I couldn’t shut up about this. She wanted to be a Republican Christian. Sorry I tried really hard.
