Playing in our faces

One of the things I hate the most about tariffs is that we knew they were illegal, and when the court finally decided they were illegal, they forced Trump to refund the tariffs. But the refunds went to the corporations, and not the people the corporations raised prices on. What a scam.

Natalie Harp’s job is to keep Trump happy so he can focus on being a brutal autocrat. She's a taxpayer-funded enabler. Reporting on her is no different than reporting on Leavitt or Bondi. She's not off-limits. And she has faster access to quality mental health care than any of us. END/

She’s clearly been hurt. Perhaps by a cult or an abuser, and hurt people hurt people. But at some point, the bad acts can’t be legally or politically tolerated. That’s why we put Ghislaine Maxwell - who started out a s a victim - in prison for sex trafficking. 4/

There are also national security concerns. She spent a year at the White House without clearance - and as a gatekeeper to Trump - she’s a vulnerable entry point for enemies. That's especially bad since Donald is also a useful idiot. 3/

Natalie Harp is a government employee, paid by tax dollars and accountable to the people. She’s 35, and while it seems her emotional growth may have been stunted at a younger age by trauma, there are millions of us who can say the same, but none of us are propping up a murderous dictator. 2/

THREAD: A couple of thoughts on Natalie Harp. First, I'm so glad that people on our side are concerned about her and her mental health. It's because we have hearts and empathy and we aren't sociopaths. We're good people, and I love that about us. But I think we are also right to be angry. 1/

We need more prominent political figures to talk shit openly about the disgusting, criminal, child-raping president. Have some balls, Y'all. It makes him mad. Hopefully, it causes a heart attack.

I wonder why 90 days. Couldn’t be because the midterms are in… 74 days, right? Right? Apparently communist price controls are fine when you’re trying to get votes. Who knew?

1/ Nearly half of America’s 185,000+ voter challenges happened in one state - Georgia. Now that state’s election board is piloting a tool that already mislabeled a living voter as dead. This is how they thin the rolls before a midterm. 🧵 #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
