This is a prime motivation for most of what T does. His narcissism illness doesn’t allow him to believe he actually lost in 2020. He will do whatever it takes to show he actually won.
Trump releases a statement saying he is sending Americans to war with Iran because “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump.”

Sen. Jacky Rosen is calling for the impeachment of Kristi Noem.
"Kristi Noem and her department's latest attempt to mislead the American public regarding the brutal and unjustified killing of Alex Pretti is deeply shameful, and she must be impeached and removed from office immediately."

All right Senators - who's next?
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

If only he could sign an executive order to make it happen.
President Donald Trump is ready to “move on” from peace talks between Ukraine and Russia if there is no progress “within days,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters Friday.
Trump ready to ‘move on’ from Ukraine peace talks if no progress, Rubio says
Rubio’s remarks appear to reflect the president’s frustration with the difficulty of achieving peace in Ukraine after Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion.

Either the courts get to decide who is a “violent criminal” or “gang member”, or Donald Trump gets to decide.
That choice determines whether we are a Republic governed by laws or an autocracy living under a ruler.

They were kidnapped not deported. Taken to a gulag. Shameful stain on US.
Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

TAPPER: You're imposing a 10% on the Heard and MccDonald islands. They have zero human inhabitants. Why are you putting tariffs on islands entirely populated by penguins?
ROLLINS: Whatever. Listen, the people leading this are serious, intentional, patriotic, the smartest I've ever worked with.

More evidence that the tariffs were calculated by the most mean, stupid people you could find.
“This has nothing to do with actual tariffs,” Mr. Nel said. “They can’t import a lot from the U.S., because they don’t have a lot of money.”

Lesotho, a Small African Nation, Expects a Big Hit From Trump’s Tariffs
The amount of manufactured goods exported from Africa to the United States is minuscule. But for Lesotho, the impact of a stunning 50 percent tariff is enormous.

I would only add that the few who do know better are intimidated by the Stupid-in-Chief so there will be no end to the stupid until we organize the opposition.
Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

S&P Futures are down 3.26% right now. That has to be some sort of record.
It only makes sense if you realize that none of this is meant to help our country.
It is done in service to Putin and the oligarchs.

This is big. It proves that the grassroots can take on Elon Musk bribery attempts.
We did it! Thank you to everyone who voted, volunteered, donated, and otherwise supported efforts to elect Judge Susan Crawford, the next State Supreme Court Justice. Activate America was proud to be part of this effort; our volunteers connected with hundreds of thousands of voters.
