Trump's former spiritual advisor just admitted to molesting girls. He pardoned J6ers. His former lawyer was disbarred. And he's a 34 time convicted felon. But you go on, Marsha.

At this inflection point for Trump's authoritarian project, the democratic resistance can rise to the occasion by linking together its legal prong (lawsuits), its political prong (the government shutdown), and its popular prong (No Kings). A moment of challenge and opportunity.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

The level of confusion out there about QAnon and Q is 100% intentional. I have spent two and a half years shoveling through the disinformation. It’s actually very simple. Mike Flynn is Q — and the worst traitor in American history. Let’s review the record.🧵 #ArrestMikeFlynn

Trump says he's imposing a 50% tariff on Brazil because its tariffs and trade barriers are causing "unsustainable Trade Deficits," which he calls "a major threat to our Economy and our National Security!" But the U.S has a trade surplus with Brazil.

A bunch of Trump’s most influential advisors are advocating for the US to leave NATO and the UN. Short-sighted, reactionary morons. You should really ask yourselves why anyone that has the US interests at heart would want us to leave the most powerful alliance in history.
