Note on pieces like these, not only is there no suggestion that Republicans should distance themselves from him, there's no hint that there's a reason to. No recap of his CSAM machine. No inflammatory racist quotes. No mention of the DOGE death toll. No history of his fabulist quotes.

i also don’t know what it means to have “no policy legacy,” but whatever it is i imagine the families of the civilians killed in Iran and the millions of people deprived of aid here and abroad would disagree
the bottom line is that Trump has been on Putin's side since day one, but every now and then he'll do a little head fake ("Maybe I'll allow Ukraine to make patriot missiles!") to throw people off the scent
Jon Ossoff is sex on a stick, and this guy looks like something that came out of a cow that had been munching on Taylor Farms iceberg lettuce. You, as they say, do the math.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo agoTrump: "I fought Ossoff before, as you know, And we won. He reminds me of Pinky Herman."
The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.
Remember this scene the next time a corporate reporter tries to insist that a rural diner full of white men in their 60s is somehow a more authentically "American" place, somehow more representative of who we are as a nation.

If I lived in Texas, I'd find a way to work this into every conversation. "All right, here's your large coffee with skim." "Thanks! Did you hear about Paxton pardoning that pedophile? Crazy, right?"
James Talarico@jamestalarico.bsky.social · 4mo agoKen Paxton just gave an Epstein-style deal to a pedophile. Paxton released Adam Hoffman — an admitted child rapist — back on our streets after Paxton’s rich lawyer friend got involved. The Epstein Class has no place in Texas. Ken Paxton has no place in the US Senate.
Kind of amazing with all the focus on leakers and federal employees signing NDAs no one in the White House has issues with Ravid’s constant reporting from internal White House sources
And... we're back to threats. The cycle of: 1) Threats 2) Lies of an imminent peace deal 3) Positive media coverage for that 4) Evidence of no deal, and nowhere close to Iran making concessions 5) Pretending not to care about a deal he transparently wants 6) Threats Took about three days this time

The coverage of this sprawling series of crimes by corporate media has altogether failed to encompass its depravities and treacheries. This isn't merely a story of misappropriated funds or a gaming of the legal system. What happened today mandates opening a Treason investigation.

Dangerous, unhinged rhetoric. Don't sleep on this. Trump accuses NYT's Sanger of TREASON for asking a legitimate question.
Hantavirus is the latest virus outbreak in the news right now. I promise you it won't be the last. It's not a question of IF there will be another pandemic, it's a question of WHEN. Americans need to realize Trump is razing our public health infrastructure to the ground.
Why Experts Are Worried About the U.S. Response to Hantavirus

Not to mention, when a drug goes from $100 to $600 that’s a 500% increase. (And then, of course, when that drug drops from $600 to $100, that’s a roughly 83% decrease in price, not 600%.) The fact that that both of them don’t understand middle school math is not surprising. But it’s disqualifying.
It’s helpful that the US has terrible cybersecurity and just sits back and lets China completely man handle them in cyberspace, it allows the rest of us in developed countries to see what they are doing in real time and create better defenses strategies. Thank you US, you aren’t completely useless.
No—he's lying. It was Pakistan that wrote up the ceasefire agreement, and Pakistan has said unequivocally that Lebanon was included. So this isn't a mistake Iran has made, this is Trump yet again covering for war crimes and vigilantism by Israel by lying to the American people. A Trumpist pathology.

Senselessly slaughtering thousands of men, women, and children—while claiming the direct, personal approval of the Heavenly Father—is an unspeakable perversion of Conservatism and Christianity. Jesus Christ was not ambiguous about this. He actually addressed it explicitly and repeatedly.
