I believe Trump's tenure has created a crisis for democracy and diplomacy worldwide.

Absolutely disgusting!
He can’t even feign compassion. While asked about honoring a fallen National Guardsman, he boasts about his election win.
This is the most vile, self-absorbed disgrace. An utter moral vacuum.

Best wishes to those National Guards members who were harmed.
Let's be crystal clear about this incident - Trump's xenophobia created this climate of fear!
Disturbingly, he is now cynically exploiting a tragedy he helped spawn to distract from his own catastrophic failings as president.

Trump's projection is astounding.
The real traitors here are the sycophants and criminals he surrounds himself with. He's a delusional, wannabe autocrat whose own administration is a parade of convicts. Trump is the crime!

Yet again, Trump's deluded fantasy clashes with reality. He is a serial liar, and his flagrant garbage insults the intelligence of everyone (except his followers). He is an abject failure, and an embarrassment to the office.

Good riddance to this bigot. A great one for racist, Islamophobic, and anti-LGBTQ remarks, as well as comparisons between COVID-19 policies and the Holocaust.
Her resignation, forced by Trump's vile misogyny, is a fitting end to a career defined by racism and hatred. A perfect, pathetic finale.

I could imagine he would offer a biblical quote like,
"A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid anyone who talks too much." Proverbs 20:19
Thus side-steping the substance of the threat by morally framing the act of repeating it as a greater sin, dismissing the question without condemning his boss.

The science of stupidity!
It takes a special kind of bureaucratic genius to feed the very monster of misinformation you're tasked with fighting. Handing a match to arsonists and calling it "transparency" is a masterclass in stunning incompetence that puts lives at risk for no discernible benefit.

Don't stop! A fitting end would be for his two greatest admirers to claim their prize. Given his fondness for absolute rulers, a quote for bin Salman is perfect: "He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." (Matthew 24:51)

Hard to imaging the current administration considering the swastika's ancient history when they deemed it acceptable. But, it has been a positive symbol for 10,000+ years across Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, and Native cultures, representing well-being and good fortune. Tragically co-opted in 20th century!

Conduct unbecoming!
A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

A month is a lifetime when you're a victim. The constant delays raise the question: who is the justice system protecting? Every day of inaction is a betrayal to those who have already suffered unimaginable trauma. Their courage demands urgency.

The described behavior is a disgraceful moral failure.
It reveals a corrupt worldview that betrays allies and embraces autocrats, putting a price on human rights and dignity.
This hypocrisy is a brown stain on diplomacy and an affront to American values.
The hallmark of Trump and his cronies!

Remember this - Trump and his court jesters would not even be in power if it weren't for the third of eligible American voters who elected them last November. Also too, the third of your fellow countrymen and women who could have helped shape the nation's future at the ballot box, but chose not to!

So shocking that anyone (let alone a US president) can hide behind their 1st Amendment rights to say almost any heinous and derogatory thing they like.
In civilized countries, strong vilification laws would penalize such vile speech.
America clearly needs to review its lack of hate speech laws!

Higgins voted No, stating the bill "...abandons 250 years of criminal justice procedure in America..." and its broad release of files "...to a rabid media, will absolutely result in innocent people being hurt.”

A self-inflicted wound, sold as a cure.
Trump's master plan, to fix the inflation he denies exists, is to partially undo the very tariffs he insists didn't cause it?
A perfect, self-serving circle of nonsense. The only thing he's cutting is the last shred of logical consistency.
What a hero!

The true criminals aren't the anxious pawns, but the king and his court jesters.
Trump and his Republican accomplices who orchestrate these unconstitutional crises must be held fully accountable for the destruction they have incited, or this dangerous cycle will never end!

In simple monetary terms, according to cmsny.org/importance-o..., Trump's forced deportations "... could cost over $500 billion to implement and would sacrifice billions in tax revenue per year. It also would lead to labor shortages and reduce the GDP by $5.1 trillion over the next ten years..."!

Behold the Grand Old Party, fulfilling the scripture: Matthew 3:7 "For they are a brood of vipers," who see a cloud and promise sunshine, then feel a raindrop and declare a flood. James 1:8 - Their words are a double-minded mirage, unstable in all their ways.

Willfully rejecting science is an act of national sabotage. It leaves us vulnerable, uncompetitive, and unprepared for the future. Sacrificing our children's education to appease anti-intellectualism isn't faith; it's a cowardly surrender that will cripple generations to come.

Like magic, his sudden "transparency" is a calculated farce. He knows his allies have already sanitized the evidence, scrubbing any trace of his and his oligarch friends' depravity. This is a performance for the gullible, not a pursuit of justice.
But, weren't the files just a Democrats "hoax"?

Well, it's a job that attracts a certain type: those whose career options are limited by a lack of intellect and an excess of bully's instinct. They fail at anything requiring nuance, so they're given a badge and a quota instead of a scalpel.

Those who follow Trump are certainly not Patriots. Quite the opposite!
Because of them, the US is more divided, less respected, and teetering on the edge of authoritarianism. Their blind loyalty betrayed the nation's true ideals.
