I’m officially done with Twitter. The amount of amplified far right accounts on my timeline has made this site trash. Come see me on Blue Sky.

So it’s really important you understand the Trump Coin grift. It hasn’t gotten enough attention, but it’s maybe the biggest White House corruption in a century. Right out in the open for all to see.
I’m going to explain how the grift works. Only takes 3 minutes.

Atlanta Fed forecasts a -2.8% GDP growth for this quarter.
4 weeks ago it was +3.9%.
Trump owns this.
On March 3, the #GDPNow model nowcast of real GDP growth in Q1 2025 is -2.8%: bit.ly/32EYojR. #ATLFedResearch

And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.

Yep. I never trusted or approved of these guys' foreign policy, but only because I questioned their judgement on where and when to shoot. Never once did I question they were loyal to America and not to Russia. Never once did I think I'd have to question that in a U.S. president.

MAGA is making the claim that if you watch the entire 50 minute video, Zelensky is the antagonist.
This isn't true. At all. I was with Zelensky before this meeting and it's important to know his mindset heading in.
1/ A short 🧵on how the entire ambush went down.
If you watch the full Trump-Zelensky press conference, it is very clear that Zelensky, not Trump or Vance, became the antagonist. Both POTUS and VP were very respectful and cordial until Zelensky very publicly ignited a firestorm.
It all starts at 40:30
1) Zelensky essentially rejects how VP described the mandate of POTUS to conduct foreign affairs, and he insinuates that Trump term one did nothing to stop Putin.
2) He then basically tells Vance that his ideas are faulty and that the administration's diplomacy won't work.
These two comments are *deliberately antagonistic.* Everything was all well and good, but Zelensky took two major shots in a public forum, and they had to respond. And respond they did.
Recall, this is the guy who interfered in our electoral politics and called VP "too radical," and bashed Trump in an interview with New York Mag weeks before the election.
Zelensky is ENTIRELY at fault here. 100%.
It’s crazy how jacked up the X algorithm is now. I don’t follow any right wing accounts at all but after Trump’s bullshit today my timeline is absolutely filled with them. Musk is playing the spin game.

The longer version is even worse. These 2 don't know a thing about the history between Russia and Ukraine. They treat Putin better than they treat Zelensky. They think they are being tough but they are just being ignorant and embarrassing.
Ryan retweeted
The clown show continues. Now Trump‘s cronies are getting in and picking on Zelensky. It’s pretty interesting to see someone that I had not had much respect for in the past, Marco Rubio. He’s totally uncomfortable and knows how inappropriate this whole thing is. Kudos.

This is the most embarrassing and shameful moment I’ve ever witnessed from the Oval Office.
American leadership publicly siding with a Dictator in Vladimir Putin and berating a democratic friend in Ukraine will not be forgotten by any nation around the world.
Ryan retweeted
WTF. Trump points at Zelensky: “You see the hatred he’s got for Putin. He’s got tremendous hatred”
PUTIN INVADED HIS COUNTRY AND KILLED 50,000 PEOPLE.
Ryan retweeted
I'll absolutely allow that Zelensky did not play this well. He didn't. Anyone who knows this admin should know to come in, kiss a bunch of ass, sign the deal, and leave. He fucked up.
But really... can you blame him?
Imagine surviving three years of war and a decade of Putin's incursions, hundreds of thousands of your countrymen dead, then have to listen to Trump drone on about how much Putin suffered during the "Russia hoax" and JD Vance (who admitted he has never even been to Ukraine!) lecture you about engaging in diplomacy with the guy who invaded your country and killed your friends and family.
It'd be damn near impossible to bite your tongue and not try to set the record straight. I certainly don't blame him.

Chaya Raichik from LibsofTiktok is grinning ear to ear, gleefully flaunting her useless Epstein binder, packed with information that’s mostly already public, while 250 real victims are still fighting for actual answers.
The level of tone-deafness here is off the charts. Imagine treating a case of child sex trafficking like a cheap prop for social media clout while the people who actually suffered are left in the dark. It’s performative, it’s grotesque, and it’s exactly the kind of distraction they want.

I keep hearing that teams leaving the Mountain West for the Pac-12 are making a lateral move. I wanted to find out what the mathematics say about the move. (The numbers used were pulled at 9:51 on 02/27)
Current Mountain West averages:
NET: 124.3
KenPom: 120.2

We are barreling toward a full blown constitutional crisis.
Trump's announcement that he's ending thousands of aid contracts FUNDED BY CONGRESS is unconstitutional and illegal - and horrible for our security.

When you go to grocery store and you pay more for eggs and then you go to the gas station and pay more for gas and then you go to the pharmacy and pay more for insulin..
Just remember, the guy that started the tariff war is the same guy that negotiated the trade deal in 2018.
“They haven’t done any research yet but they believe 10% of the entire population is committing Social Security fraud”. They just make shit up and people believe it. This is just like the voter fraud they lied about.
