Trump tears up a working nuclear agreement and starts a war with Iran, blames it on Iran. Trump starts an economic war with Canada, blames it on Canada. Trump f*cks up America and the world, Blames it on Biden and Obama.

Happy #InternationalCatDay! Apparently today is dedicated to cats. Lovely idea, although I feel the other 364 days could try harder. 🐈🧡 with treatos A tippetty tap of the paw to every rescue, fosterer, volunteer & kind human helping cats in need. Now… celebratory treatos?
The death knell for women’s and girls’ rights. And any number of other atrocities. And now the Epstein files aren’t just not all released but I’m guessing the missing ones will be destroyed. I hope someone somewhere was brave enough to back them up somewhere secretly. Fuck Trump.

$50 to the first reporter who asks what the last level of science education Evander Kane had recieved. My guess is BC Science 9.
Please let me know when I can open my baby bottle of champagne I have chilling for the day the Canucks get rid of Evander Kane. (It’s chilling right beside the big one I have chilling waiting for another important day.) #8647
Also, and I mean to say this as gently as possible: they're never going to stop. It doesn't matter if Dems win the midterms. It doesn't matter if courts overrule them. They don't care. They've gone too far. They'll never give up power or allow themselves to be held accountable to the rule of law.

Top JPMC execs were in constant contact with Epstein and were aware of his shady financials. Top staff at JPMC, reporting directly to CEO Jamie Dimon, closely supervised Epstein’s accounts. One even coached Epstein on how to sanitize his suspiciously large cash withdrawals.
…JPMC’s senior leadership repeatedly protected Epstein …despite repeated warnings from internal compliance personnel. …top bankers eagerly continued to work with him informally and through other channels where he could continue to be a source of referrals for other ultra-wealthy clients.

1st- Trumpet’s admin are idiots. 2nd - ChatGPT/AI is unreliable to the point that most humans can find errors. AI is supposed to make our lives easier, not stupider. So nothing new here. Status quo. SNAFU.

Should federal/state Boomer Politicians retire? Absolutely. If they still have energy to serve then imagine what they could accomplish locally by volunteering while they enjoy their earned pension. It’s unbelievable what skilled smart seniors can accomplish & w/ federal experience they’d be amazing.
So Trump insulted reporters to their faces, mocked people for their appearance, and then for a "closer" made a limp joke about serving an unconstitutional third term (which some reporters laughed and clapped about!) What was the point exactly?
