STOP calling it a DECOY plane. It was a BAIT plane. When a threat is only hypothetical, it’s a decoy plane. This happened once before—WITH press knowledge. When a threat is KNOWN to exist, leaving the press to face it uses them as BAIT. TELL THE TRUTH.

Trump’s secret flight echoes Clinton’s Pakistan plane swap, with key difference

Bill Clinton’s White House used a similar plane-change maneuver in 2000. But unlike July’s flight, the press corps was briefed on the operation and its dangers.

Put a sociopath in the White House and he’ll not think twice about using his own staff and other humans as decoys/potential collateral damage when he learns that HIS safety could be at risk if he flies on the ill-equipped Qatari bribe/lux AIr Force One. Not surprising, but utterly disgusting.

Imagine finding out, as white house staff or reporter, that your life is being exploited as a decoy. If there’s a threat that’s credible enough to smuggle Trump to another vehicle, but they don’t ALSO move YOU out of that threat… That’s a massive “FUCK YOU” to you by this president and his regime.

Democrats had better get it together and start understanding that the "old establishment" is a dying thing. Voters, especially younger ones, want change. They want money out of politics. They want bold new ideas from younger, more dynamic messengers. They want common decency back.

You know who else is terrified? His ex-wife and toddler daughter who he abused. So terrified, his ex just took out a restraining order against Miller. I hope this MAGA nightmare does lose his seat. Ohio. You can do so much better!

#NorthCarolina would not be so red if not for the corrupt and bigoted NCGOP stealing seats. Whatley is a Trump sycophant, and a traitor to our state. He doesn't care about #Helene victims, he will lose. Support @roycoopernc.bsky.social for U.S. Senate!

cardinalpine.com/news/michael... Michael Whatley is running for US Senate from NC wants to end FEMA. North Carolinians know before you vote. Vote #RoyCooper Repost #Blues #NorthCarolina

#NorthCarolina we don't need another abusive bigot. Whatley is exactly the kind of candidate the corrupt good 'ole boy NCGOP traffics in. Oh, and his ads? All I hear is him bragging about being endorsed by Trump (current approval: ~30% LOL). We have a choice and a great candidate in Roy Cooper.

NEWS: NC Senate candidate Michael Whatley keeps branding the GOP as the "party of faith." But his campaign has real, documented ties to Word of Faith Fellowship, the NC church at the center of a brutal abuse scandal involving children.

Running out of body bags, using forklifts to transfer corpses into makeshift morgues, a mortician conducting 200 funerals in a month when he usually does 30, crematories running at double capacity… And these senators just want to memory-hole it all www.nytimes.com/2020/04/30/n...

If Cornyn and Tillis want to have their legacy in politics be as dogs running away with their tails between their legs, then, yeah, go ahead and confirm Todd Blanche as AG!!

A sitting US president stole $900 million of another country's oil money & transferred it into his own private account & m’fing Republicans are worried about immigrants!

The FDA says Taylor Farms is in the clear. I’m calling bullshit. 📌 FEC records show Taylor Fresh Foods, the parent company of Taylor Farms, donated $1 million to MAGA Inc., a major pro-Trump super PAC, in March 2025. 1/2

If they can lie about the mortality of a US senator and get away with it they can lie about the results of an election and get away with it. Why don’t more Americans grasp this simple concept?

To every New Yorker: this rule is not yet in effect. The earliest it could take effect is Sept. 18, 2026. New York City will use every tool at our disposal to fight this attack on immigrant families and the communities that make our city the greatest on earth.

The President speaks tonight at 9 PM ET, and new federal voting restrictions are expected. Before a word is said, the nation's criminal defense lawyers are on record: whatever gets announced, four things will still be true when the speech ends. 🧵
