HE JUST POTENTIALLY STARTED WORLD WAR 3, NOBODY CAN AFFORD GROCERIES, AND HE’S TALKING ABOUT HIS FUCKING BALLROOM

Some 10,000 USAID personnel and thousands of contractors were fired and thousands of programs shuttered, throwing into turmoil U.S.-funded global humanitarian aid operations on which millions of the world’s poorest people depended. USAID stopped distributing aid in July.

Losing my goddamned mind.

We can condemn political violence without valorizing a destructive, hateful bigot.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The show tonight was so awesome and this was one of the best parts of the night. Thank you!

Someone please assure me everything is going to be okay, because this is really, really scary.

Trump Ramps Up Attacks on Law Firms With Order Targeting Perkins Coie The order against the firm, which did work for Democrats during the 2016 campaign, represents an escalation of efforts to punish groups the president sees as aiding his enemies.

He’s targeting firms who’ve worked with Jack Smith and Hillary Clinton, & he’s targeting the American Bar Association. I hope attacking Big Law backfires on him.
