They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.
For absolutely nothing.
Guess he’ll try to buy our votes just in case he isn’t able to shut down voting entirely. Smart move.
It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
Just wild. Jackals picking at the American empire’s carcass. Say hello to the Chinese century.

That.
Is not.
A word.
You asshole.
Mr. Darwin would like a word.
this is beyond parody, folks. a complete mockery of the DOJ.
She seems upset, although it's hard to tell because her frozen Mar-A-Lago face is incapable of conveying human emotion.
🤡 In normal times, this piece of sh*t would get fired for talking to ANYONE like that in her official capacity.
there are government forces in Iran that “go around with machine guns,” Mr. Trump said on Friday in an interview with Fox radio. “And they say, ‘Anybody protests, we’re going to kill you in the street,’ ” he added. “So I really think that’s a big hurdle to climb for people that don’t have weapons.”
(From the NYT, Trump explaining why Iranians shouldn't, after all, follow his advice to overthrow their govt.)
He apparently thinks governments shouldn't shoot protestors. Big if true.
We put an alcoholic rapist in charge of the military and he’s confessing to war crimes from the Pentagon podium.
When we restore democracy, we need to put the people who committed crimes in prison.
Immediately disqualifying for the job for which he has been nominated. The 4th Amendment specifies it’s “the right of the people,” not of citizens.
We cannot allow someone who doesn’t understand the 4th Amendment to be the head of DHS.
"President Trump will hit the home run, score the touchdown and win the marathon. He will bring home the bacon AND fry it up in a pan. He will bring in the funk, he will kick out the jams. And I assure you -- he will, he will rock you."
#ICE has been terrorizing residents in South Burlington, Vermont. The people there have met them with intense resistance protecting their neighbors.
One day we will be ready to talk about 👇. But we’re not even close to that yet & won’t be for a very long time:

It's a horrible time to be in the military, taking orders from people who don't understand how anything works, ignore the experts who do, and have no qualms about sending our young troops to die for the aggrandizement of Dear Leader.
Trump was warned about the Strait, he just ignored the warnings.
Every interview with this guy comes off like he's *hoping* to be beaten to death by an angry mob.
"Grok, show me feasting on the blood of the invading imperialist infidels... Wearing a tiny bikini."
IT'S NOT A TEST OF SAFETY REGULATIONS IT'S A TEST OF A "SELF-DRIVING" SYSTEM THAT STILL DOESN'T WORK AFTER A DECADE OF BLOWN DEADLINES
This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.
They’ll play this in museums in future.

WASHINGTON: Despite republicans’ best efforts, including a 24 hour filibuster-style debate — “the state house approved a levy on incomes over $1 million… pays for free breakfast & lunch for k-12 students…”

Democrats are on the path to winning this year, but it is by default. The party has done a horrific job on politics from almost the minute Trump was defeated in 2020. So, sure, they are winning right now — but it’s because we have no other choices. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.
Dance, fool, dance. Dance over the fresh graves. Dance as tankers burn on the Gulf. Embrace the madness.
I will say, it does seem like the press is starting to wake up finally.

Who is even buying this shit at this point?
Speaking in Kentucky, President Trump said that “we hit 28 mine ships as of this moment.” The president sometimes exaggerates or is imprecise when giving figures. U.S. officials previously said that the U.S. military had struck 16 mine-laying ships near the Strait of Hormuz.
Understatement of the year from the New York Times: ”The president sometimes exaggerates or is imprecise when giving figures.”
Just like last time!
