Trump continues to demand that his appointees indict his political opponents without evidence. And even some of his most loyal and ardent far-right MAGA supporters just can’t do it and end up resigning. But he still has Todd Blanche who will do his bidding.

Trump lunges toward and growls at a reporter (a woman) who asked him about why he's offering money to voters if his economic policies are working (Andrew Harnik/Getty)
Q: On the checks, we have $40t in debt. If your economic policies are working, why do you need an incentive for people to turn out to vote? T: I'm doing it as a reward for having to put up w/Biden Q: You also offered tariff refunds-- TRUMP: Not you Q: And that didn't happen T: You're the worst
Here’s @RapidResponse47 getting community noted for Trump’s latest $5000 voter bribe lie, which Republicans/@JDVance are obediently sane-washing As @abbydphillip points out👇🏽 he does this a lot. (Because he thinks we’re all morons)
You have a much better chance of seeing Mitch McConnell than getting those $5,000 checks from President Pickpocket.
Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.
Ignorance from wisdom. Corruption from trustworthiness. Morality from evil. Honor from dishonor. The US has a serious long term problem that isn’t just about Trump.
The real problem isn’t just Trump or his sycophantic enablers in Congress or right-wing media, or the grifters & scammers on social media. It’s his supporters. They’ve lost the ability to care about truth or recognize it. The ability to discern right from wrong. Competence from buffoonery.
I post this every year on 9/11. Never forget. bsky.app/profile/ronf...
This is what Trump did on 9/11.
Like I said yesterday, the situation in the region is getting worse every day not better. Trump threatened multiple times to stop the Houthis if they attempted to do this. The Saudis asked for help. Now not only Hormuz but the Red Sea is a choke point. We will all pay for it.
Think about what Fox hosts are now defending: A president who says that he will borrow $1.2 trillion more dollars to give everyone a check, which future generations will have to pay back, but only if his political party wins the next election. If they don’t win, you get nothing.
If the money Trump claims to pay is tied to an election result, it isn’t a “cash payment” or “dividend” or “rebate” or “stimulus.” It is a bribe. Plain and simple. Calling it anything else accepts a false premise and helps Trump and Republicans cover up how corrupt it truly is.
Republicans can’t even get Desantis to back their fake bribery scheme.

… At the Trump-centric Republican midterm convention last night in Dallas, Republicans offered up fear, paranoia, lies, false promises, and a hefty bribe to voters.

I am so hoping networks & news channels do not run Trump's speech live from the Pentagon memorial service. He's incapable of saying anything appropriate; it's always about his lies & self aggrandizement. Not today.
Laura Ingraham: “Why not just give the money? If you have it, why not just give it now?” Trump: “Because the Democrats can’t do it. We’re taking in $21 trillion dollars…” Another lie. Tariffs have brought in roughly $300-350 billion, not $21 trillion. And that’s gross collections, before refunds.
Wow! Only minutes into @Netflix.com coverage of NFL football in Australia & we have proof yet again that only the three major networks + Fox sports should be covering football. This looks like a middle school skit about football, but you have to buy it. Ugh!
The little video vignette to start the @netflix.com @nflbluesky.bsky.social coverage has the distinct smell of being AI generated. No human would write that crap.
Halfway through Trumpz-A-Loser, and the empty seats are clearly the most enthusiastic attendees.
JON STEWART: “They began covering their ass 3 weeks after 9/11… There was poison in the air, on the ground, on your pets/clothes… THE CITY KNEW. Rather than limit the damage, they covered it up… After 9/11, business will never be usual again.” (From @mamdanibulletin.bsky.social )
The cuts of meat aren’t fresh sirloins, rib-eyes, or filets. They’re lean beef trimmings that will be added to fattier American cuts to make ground beef. They’re small chunks of frozen meat that could have been kept in cold storage overseas for years. Enjoy! www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

1/ Authoritarianism does not need everyone to surrender. It only needs millions of worried people to keep postponing action until tomorrow. Today, we break that habit. Do one small thing before midnight and report back when it is done. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
Why do people only supposedly get the $5,000 if Republicans win in November? Republicans control everything and have for 2 years. Why didn’t they do it before? Why don’t they come back into session tomorrow and pass it right now? Because it’s all a lie, like everything else.
