"We also need to work on shifting attitudes about regulating social media platforms, imposing accountability norms for speech that defrauds the public and contributes to the incitement of violence and hatred toward targeted groups."

"Donald has failed so miserably in all of his objectives that he has actually made Iran more powerful now than it has been, certainly in years, if not decades...All of this is why, in the future, you do not put in charge a man who cares about nothing but money"

50% of Americans now strongly disapprove of Donald Trump. Only 20% strongly approve. 1% oligarchs, 300 are R congressmen and Senators and the rest are not very bright or racists, sexual predators or fraudsters in on the scam.

"When Donald Trump crawled back into the White House, his numbers were already in the gutter. And yet somehow, he's managed to sink even further.
37% approval. A new second-term low. Down from 39% in February. Down from 42% in December. Down from 45% just a year ago."
"So desperate to avoid the economic calamity he unleashed and his plunging poll numbers, his fictional agreements amount to magical thinking (arguably, another sign of his raging narcissism and mental decompensation)."

"And now the country is paying the price because of the individuals that Donald Trump chose to nominate as part of the Trump cartel that’s now doing great damage to the nation, and the fact that Senate Republicans, like helpless sheep, went along with it..”

"Trump[regime] has engineered a staggering abuse of federal authority by funneling nearly $1 billion in taxpayer money to TotalEnergies to abandon offshore wind development, weaponizing the Judgment Fund in a manner that appears not only improper but unlawful."

"So far, everything is breaking the Democrats’ way. With Trump’s approval rating falling and inflation rising, along with the uncertainty of a war in the Middle East, it’s not hard to imagine a Democratic tsunami in Nov."

"“AMG’s conduct toward Director Patel is part of a broader and well documented pattern. Numerous Atlantic pieces over the past two years have characterized Director Patel as unqualified, dangerous, corrupt, or mentally unstable.”

"Donald Trump’s exaggerated, confusing, and downright false remarks about a deal with Iran only underscore the perception of the American president as untrustworthy and chaotic, if not insane. A chief beneficiary of his embarrassing performance...is China."

"When Democrats regain control of Congress and the presidency, they must embark on a plan to expeditiously reconfigure and reform the Court so that illegitimate decisions like Citizens United, Shelby County v. Holder, Trump v. US can be overruled in short order."

"I am not playing along with this fiction that this is governance. This is a tequila-slicked, synapse-shorting, dignity-dissolving shitshow stumbling through power like it found a badge in a cereal box and decided that was good enough."

"The Atlantic piece, regardless of whether every allegation ultimately proves true, operates within the tradition of adversarial journalism. It gathers sources, corroborates accounts, and presents a pattern of behavior that demands explanation. It invites scrutiny."

"Donald Trump lost the Iran war. Period. And just as many other leaders who have lost wars, Trump should now be force from office and face war crime charges...
