And there’s a more recent story about trump’s helicopter almost crashing into a commercial jet because the helicopter took off without informing anyone.

PNW Nana, Mom, cat lover, progressive, retired psychotherapist & academic, news & politics junkie, furious & sometimes frightened. (I ignore begging, no profile, & porn.) Abolish ICE. Impeach, Convict, Remove.
Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social · yesterdaySuch a simple talking point. He’s not demanding we end all immigration laws or their enforcement. He’s stating the obvious fact that ICE is broken beyond repair & we need to find another way to deal with the misdemeanor of being undocumented.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoEl-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."
Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.
The New Republic@newrepublic.com · 2d agoBanks permitted millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein—and former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had the story months ago. But the report would never air. trib.al/ZShZlIS
Donald’s tendency to engage in obvious projection is so strong it extends to cities as well as other people.
I’m old enough to remember when people assumed WW3 would start in the Middle East as a proxy war between US & Russia. Seems like what we’re seeing, except now Putin manipulated trump, thru bibi, into starting it, perhaps using his knowledge that they’re both in the Epstein files.
We need to question assumptions, not play defense. Dr. Fauci never had the power to create & enforce either a shut down or a mask mandate. He only had the power to recommend them; it was up to elected “leaders” to do with his recommendations whatever they decided.
Imagine if the Representatives from half the states filed an article of impeachment for this alone. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

For anyone who’s forgotten. Also, the trumps got the shot & felon-in-chief got special drugs when he almost died of covid. As usual, whatever serves dear leader’s need of the moment.

When Justice is blind, bad guys take the fifth. When justice is corrupt, good guys take the fifth. Feel free to share.
Interesting. magats are bigly mad that science, as championed by Dr. Fauci, wasn’t good for their grifting.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Peter Navarro: "I had a million doses of hydroxychloroquine in warehouses as the defense policy coordinator that I was trying to distribute to hospitals. And Fauci got the FDA stop me from doing that."
“Turkey has been a great ally — for me” says it all. As in, of course he thinks everything is all about him always.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Trump is turning on Israel TRUMP: You know who wouldn't survive without us? Israel Q: Netanyahu disagrees with you on the F-35s to Turkey-- TRUMP: Turkey has been a great ally -- for me. Nobody tells me what we should be selling. Turkey is not a big fan of Israel. And not a big fan of Bibi.
“Go elsewhere”? First, he doesn’t spend $ to social security or Medicare; they’re earned benefits we paid for. Second, “go elsewhere” is doing a lot of heavy lifting; he means “be stolen by us.”
♥️♠️Pam♦️♣️@pam.sheshed.rocks · last wk.This is what republicans think about our senior citizens? Trump does not know the pulse of Americans. He needs to be investigated, arrested, tried and convicted! #VoteBlue #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance
Wonder why both Congress & SCOTUS appear to think this behavior is “within the outer perimeters” of Article 2.
Meanwhile in Indiana…@robertlandrumjr.bsky.social · 2w agoIt’s what dictators do. Even “wanna-be-never-was” versions.
How long are @housedemocrats.bsky.social going to pretend that supporting the troops means funding an illegal war run by a sadistic buffoon that’s intended to distract from trump’s pedo & trafficking? Or that war crimes don’t meet the bar of high crimes?
This is how Dems need to “support our troops”: gratitude for service isn’t acceptance of the war fantasies of men who’ve never been in combat.
James Talarico@jamestalarico.bsky.social · 2w agoArmy Pvt. Isabella Gonzales was killed by an Iranian strike in Jordan — she was just 19 years old. Our gratitude for her service should not be mistaken for acceptance of her death. We should not be sending our brave men and women like Isabella to die in another forever war.
This is the answer, and everyone running against maga needs to repeat it.
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 2w agoAOC: I believe in guaranteeing health care to every American. I believe in raising the minimum wage. I believe in strong unions. And so, yeah, if a Republican wants to call a stronger union communist, they’re more than welcome to do that. I’m not going to be deterred.
WTF is the matter with @housedemocrats.bsky.social? Funding a war of choice to distract the public from a criminal president’s pedophilia while giving a failed talk show host a chance to play tough guy is not “support for our troops”.
Mar-kwayne is telling us exactly what they plan to do. Marc Elias, state AGs, & voting rights groups need to prepare now. substack.com/@luciaromano...

Mullin: To let you know, we will be proactively looking at early voting, and then after post-election, we will continue to scrub all those that did vote.

So wanting our tax dollars to pay for health care instead of warfare (& those who profit from it) is now communism & will undermine the country? Nope, it’s socialism (government doing things it can do better than the private sector, a real thing here before Reagan) & only undermines autocrats.
Ty Cobb, former White House special counsel under Donald Trump calls on Congress to launch impeachment proceedings immediately. "I've seen how his presidency works from the inside."
Susan Collins: enabling men who want to control women’s bodies. Being bribed by pedophiles & sex traffickers tracks.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has the constitutional authority to temporarily appoint someone to fill Mitch McConnell’s seat. If GOP lawmakers want to challenge that, they can do so. This will be the first big test to see whether Beshear really is presidential material. I hope he passes the test.
