This is why people don’t report domestic abuse. The cops love to say “This is a family fight” and “there are 2 sides to every story” until the abused party winds up dead.
NN: The abuse allegations against Rep. Max Miller -- Moreno says he should resign, but President Trump disagrees. Do you think Miller should step down?

REP. JIMMY PATRONIS: No. I agree with the president. This is a family fight. Unfortunately, divorces are messy. There are two sides to every story.

@ocasio-cortez.house.gov @reptedlieu.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov please tell us you’re working on a response to this.
Exactly. The president is going to spin some incredible lies about the 2020 election and the media -- and every single Democrat in the country -- has to be ready to smack this bullshit down immediately. Not a mealy-mouthed fact check or, golly, this is weird. Call it out as an assault on democracy.
Journalists: please, please get ready for this in ADVANCE. We know Trump's going to claim "new evidence shows the 2020 election was stolen". You've got 3 days to write a story that confronts that lie head-on before he says it - pre-write this like an obit. America is begging you: plan ahead. 1/

I know we’ve grown used to this garbage, but this is just an astounding thing for a U.S. president to say at a summit with the leaders of the world’s most powerful countries.
Trump: "Nobody plays rougher than the United States. Look, our elections are totally rigged. We have rigged elections."

First, Trump quietly buys up to $5 million of Dell stock.

Then, he urges his followers to “go out and buy a Dell.”

i got this same line of “adapt or go extinct” bullshit when NFTs and crypto came along too. if you love them, great! use them! but it’s pure arrogance to think that people who *don’t* use them just aren’t the visionary you are.

dude i’ve been in tech for decades. i know scores of developers and engineers. they are the opposite of “thrilled.” none of us are “luddites.” your smug attitude about AI squares with the industry as a whole though so points for staying on-brand.

Many of us in the software business are THRILLED at how easy it is to build software now, but there are many Luddites who refuse to adapt, feel threatened, and gripe.

You don’t remember the lamentation over the loss of classified ad revenue, or the concerns over amateurs publishing unvetted news?

TX AG Ken Paxton offered a child rapist ONE day in jail and no sex offender registration requirement. Donald Trump just endorsed him for US Senate.

Horrific story that isn’t getting the attention it deserves.

Ken Paxton’s office offered a child molester ONE day in jail and NO sex offender registration. Donald Trump endorsed Paxton yesterday.
Paxton let a child abuser have ONE day in jail, skip the sex offender registry and allowed him to get his law license back by 2031.

This has been a banner year for GEO Group, the largest private prison contractor incarcerating immigrants in the US: ICE is its single largest client.

A confession.

Since 2015 there have been folks assuring me that Donald Trump's base of support includes people who find him to be humorous and bantering in an off-the-cuff way. Not once since then have I encountered a moment of real wit, certainly none self-aware or self-deprecating.

Until now.
Trump: "We have a man who is doing a great job. I knew it! Because he kept me out of jail for years. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. He kept me out of jail."

Q: Have you been briefed on the hantavirus?

TRUMP: Yes I have

Q: What have you learned?

TRUMP: Ahhh -- it's very much we hope under control

Q: Should Americans be concerned it's going to spread?

TRUMP: I hope not. We'll do the best we can.

In its first 6 days the war on Iran cost taxpayers over $11.3 BILLION.

We're now 45 days in.

That means over $84.7 BILLION of your hard-earned dollars may have been wasted on an illegal war.

In the U.S. there's always money for war, but never money for human needs.

As we resist tyranny, America gains solidarity.

As we gain solidarity, we build courage.

As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime.

Let's continue to build solidarity by peacefully opposing our tyrant-in-chief today at No Kings protests across the country.
