JUST IN: A Trump judicial nominee was asked point blank: is Trump eligible to run for a third term?
Their answer: “I would have to review the actual wording…”
Sen. Chris Coons then asked every nominee in the room to confirm the Constitution bars a third term.
Silence.
Every single one of them refused to say it.
Trump is appointing judges who won’t affirm the 22nd Amendment to his face.
Never stop connecting the dots.

Massie: "I do have a message to the troops. This secretary has used our troops to go seize oil for large corporations in America. You shouldn't be used like that. You signed up to pledge your life for this country if need be, and that obligation shouldn't be diminished to stealing oil for big corporations."

I’ll be posting this every single day:
SPREAD THIS FAR AND WIDE: Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill was designed to leave Americans feeling the pain long after Republicans passed it.
When the worst cuts hit, don’t suddenly blame Democrats.
REPUBLICANS WROTE IT. REPUBLICANS PASSED IT. REPUBLICANS OWN IT.
Don’t let them rewrite history.

Q: If I said Joe Biden is the part owner of a company and it has all of these investments from the Middle East, you would say that sounds corrupt, right?
Trump: Well, he did have a lot of different things.
Q: Sure, but why is it different for you?
Trump: Because I know nothing about it. I made a lot of money before.
Q: But then why do you need the money? Why not just divest, walk away?
Trump: I do.
Q: No, you didn’t.
Trump: I have a company. My sons are in the company. It’s hard to say to them, don’t do anything anymore for four years because I’m president.
Q: But you could divest from the company yourself and let them do whatever they want. That’s all. You’re not, like, sitting in the Oval Office thinking, Thank God I have that $50 million in World Liberty Financial, right?
Trump: How do you divest from cash?
Q: Do you think the people—the people who are investing in the company that you co-own with your sons, who are coming from foreign countries, who want things from your government—don’t you think they think that they are buying influence?
Trump: I don’t know, but that’s true. Look, every president has a problem. You have people, and they work for you. And guys like you cover them, and you do profiles on them, and they become like everybody thinks that Trump loves them and everything else, which in some cases is true and some cases are not.
This is true for every president, going back to George Washington.
Q: Every president has not owned a cryptocurrency company, however.
Trump: But they own something, whatever crypto was at the time. Okay, you know, there’s crypto. And before that, there was oil. Okay. And every president has had this problem.

Un-fucking-believable! You will never and I mean fucking ever, find a more cowardly snowflake than a fucking Republican man!
And that's a hill I'll die on.

To remind the new Congress, Trump and Hegseth are guilty of the extrajuditial killing of drug-runners and of premeditated murder of survivors at sea...as proven by a long list of historical case law.
Please reestablish our collective legitimacy in int'l affairs.

I want to share a brief update.
My presidential memoir, PROMISE ME, AMERICA, is coming out on November 17th. I hope you'll read it. It covers my years as President. The challenges we faced, the decisions I made, and why I made them. It's about who we are as a nation. What we stand for. And America's role in the world. More than anything, it's about my faith in the American people and the great American experiment in self-governance and democracy.
While writing the book, I was diagnosed with cancer, a disease known all too well to millions of Americans and their families. My doctors continue to be encouraged by how I've responded to treatment. And the prayers and kind words and well wishes from so many of you have meant more to me and Jill and our family than you can ever know.
Some days are better than others. It hasn't stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down. What that means is, unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as many conversations about my book as I’d hoped. However, I’m hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves.
Looking forward, I'm going to keep following what my father told me a long time ago: "Champ, when you get knocked down, get up." It's a good lesson for me. And for America.
We are blessed. America is the most unique nation on earth. Unlike other countries, we're built on an idea. An idea bigger than any ocean. More powerful than any army. Stronger than any tyrant or dictator. That idea? All of us are created equal.
Promise Me, America, we'll never forget it.

Do you know how fucking unbelievably hated and disliked you have to be for other countries to want to chime in on the celebration too??? To those countries, I say thank you.

The image collage falsely implies international landmarks were lit blue to celebrate recent US election results. Niagara Falls was lit teal for Alzheimer's Awareness per official schedule; Eiffel Tower and Colosseum images are outdated, unrelated or AI-generated.

ICE just reserved 12 rooms at Stonewall Resort in Lewis County, WV for the 8th through the 12th. They will obviously be operating in Lewis and Upshur counties. Please help make sure potentially impacted people are made aware.

I realize I’m in a tiny minority here, but I consider Nvidia selling sensitive AI tech to a Chinese front org after Trump approved the sale despite warnings from US intelligence and Congress about security concerns to be a much bigger story than the Dana White foolish distraction.

Trump and MAGA are so desperate to pretend the nation hasn't turned against them that they're doubling down on the worst aspects of their failed movement.
The Secretary of Defense, who is facing impeachment, is posting QAnon slogans.
Perpetually online MAGA conspiracy theorists are trying to convince themselves that Trump lost the midterms on purpose to expose non-existent Democratic fraud.
Trump chose the most despised and inept person to be his Chief of Staff, as he lashes out at his administration instead of taking any blame for his failures.
Despite failing all of his attempts to persecute his political opponents, Trump is doubling down on the rhetoric now that he's lost control of Congress and his own corruption will be investigated.
The little MAGA that remains thinks it's some kind of cool moment to turn the MAGA hat into a VETO hat, as if watching Trump veto bills that would improve our lives will be some sort of win instead of furthering Republican losses in 2028.
These are the last gasps of a dying movement, and it is truly pathetic.

I know I wrote a post like this recently, but I feel like I am going to explode if I hear another Republican misuse the word "socialism."
For my Republican friends out there, let me explain what socialism actually means. Socialism is an economic system in which the means of production are socially or publicly owned, including through state ownership.
Universal healthcare is not socialism. Social welfare programs designed to prevent homelessness and poverty are not socialism. Free public education is not socialism. In fact, it is entirely possible to have a highly capitalist economy alongside an extensive social welfare system. Even Milton Friedman, one of the most influential advocates of free-market capitalism, supported a negative income tax to provide a basic income floor for the poor.
So please stop with the BS accusations of socialism every time someone proposes a social welfare program.
Ironically, some of the most conspicuous examples of state intervention in private enterprise in contemporary America come from the Trump administration itself. Its increasingly dirigiste economic policies include acquiring ownership stakes in private companies, asserting government control over corporate decisions, and imposing economically damaging tariffs on American businesses and consumers.
If you are genuinely concerned about government interference in free markets, perhaps you should start there.

No amount of money should be able to buy an election. This cycle tested that belief like never before.
Dark money poured into races across the country, and big corporations and billionaire megadonors like Elon Musk bet they could drown out everyone else.
Then Election Day came and the people had the final say. Voters took their power back and sent a message loud and clear that America's democracy is NOT FOR SALE.
I'm grateful to every volunteer who knocked on a door, every neighbor who chipped in five dollars, and every voter who showed up.
Now we have to protect what they fought for.
I'll keep fighting in Congress to overturn Citizens United, shine a light on secret spending, and make it permanently clear that Big Money's influence has no place in our elections.
I've never taken a dime of corporate PAC money, and I never will. Our government should answer to the people it serves.

Listened the entire 57:16.
Enjoyed the conversation with Michael Feinberg.
I'm very sorry that this good man and devoted public servant had to leave a career that he loved, one for which he was highly trained and eminently qualified.
It was clear as early as 2015-2016 that Trump was nothing but trouble.
It was always clear that Trump was uniquely, temperamentally, just manifestly unsuitable for the presidency in every conceivable way.
It was clear for me right away that keeping this menace as far from the presidency as possible far outweighed the importance of partisan politics and when Trump won the Republican nomination in 2016 my own world no longer had anything to do with right and left.
Besides his obvious unfitness, my two primary concerns were both proven to have had merit over the course of the last decade.
1) An unacceptable risk to our national security.
2) A sure bet to politicize, and possibly undermine and corrupt our apolitical democratic institutions, including federal law enforcement, the IC and our armed forces.
This best explains why I'm OG NeverTrump.
I want people like Michael Feinberg in public service. We're safer and better off for it when we do.
We're no longer the United States of America when we don't.
It's a terrible loss for the nation when things are made so uncomfortable and intolerable for them that they're no longer able to stay.
God, please help us get past this terrible period and somehow realign with our intended destiny.
We've been terribly derailed and are heading straight for the ravine.
I'm guessing that was Vivaldi at the beginning and the end.
