They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

Let me make this crystal clear. Americans don't want impeachment. We want his entire cabinet prosecuted.
Really, really, like reeeeaaaallllyyy getting sick of the daily scam calls that my business has been approved for six figure business loans. I get 3-5 of these scam calls a day. Always different numbers from different locations.
This is excellent from @jamellebouie.net. The Trump administration is not conservative in any meaningful sense of the word. They are revolutionaries undermining the constitutional order. Any competent response from Democrats needs to face this reality squarely.

1/ Tear gas was created to incapacitate grown men. So when I started seeing reports of kids hurt by tear gas deployed by federal immigration agents, I wondered how often it was happening. My colleagues and I started to count:
The journalist who is being sued by Kash Patel and reportedly being investigated by the FBI is out with a new story. Is there a Pulitzer for being a fearless badass? If so, she should win it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

It's so funny. "The USPS losses money" So does the federal highway commission. But we all understand that if we didn't invest money in this you couldn't drive anywhere. But for some reason we've let shithead delivery companies convince you otherwise.
Trump does not think strategically, historically, geographically, or even rationally. He does not connect actions he takes on one day to events that occur weeks later. Allied leaders know that if they help him in the Gulf, he won't be grateful, or even remember www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Everyone but Trump Understands What He’s Done
Allied leaders know that any positive gesture they make will count for nothing.

6 months before bombing Iran and closing the Strait of Hormuz, the Trump admin fired the State Dept. oil and gas experts. The people who modeled exactly this scenario. The ones with contacts at Gulf energy ministries. Now nobody knows who to call. You can't make this up.
Trump’s DOGE Cuts Slashed Staff That Handled Middle Eastern Oil and Gas Crises
Six months before going to war in Iran, the U.S. government cut staff that would have been central to the current situation.

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”
Why are folks not asking more questions about this FBI complaint in the Epstein Files? www.justice.gov/epstein/file...
What’s so weird about men in power is how when they face scandal and should step down the world acts like no one else can do their jobs. Bottstein, Wasserman, these aren’t irreplaceable men! Stop with this delusion.
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
Epstein survivors raise their hands to signal they've been ignored by Trump's DOJ as AG Pam Bondi refuses to look at them (Roberto Schmidt/AFP via Getty)
NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?
Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.** He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

Face-coverings may work less to protect federal agents from danger than to make it easier for them to do unconstitutional things.

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
Donald Trump, the president, had parties at Maralago called "calendar girls" Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children in and trump would auction them off. He measured the children's vulva and vaginas by entering a finger and rated the children on tightness. The guests were elder men and included...
