Maybe she’s got something there. But she never mentioned Elmo.
At first blush I thought she was talking about Trump. It really could apply to most billionaires and wannabe monarchists.

She cut right down to the cognitive dissonance that drives him to self medicate daily with massive quantities of ketamine.
All that money but he’s got a personality so repellent he’s reduced to pandering to internet edgelords 40years his junior for even a sniff of validation.

This is the authoritarian feedback loop made explicit. The state will hold a celebration of its own power, and will use the instruments of that power to crush any citizens who protest the celebration. Dissent is not just being ignored; it is being pre-emptively defined as a hostile act that justifies a violent state response.

This is absolutely incredible -- Kristi Noem repeatedly refuses to acknowledge that Trump brandished an doctored image of Abrego Garcia's tattoos, prompting Eric Swalwell to have a staffer of his brandish an image of them right in her face.
Totally dystopian.

Tulsi Gabbard's bizarre fondness for murderous foreign despots is not beside the point.
It is precisely the point. And her nomination is a walking five-alarm fire.
She must be rejected.

.@realDonaldTrump suspends the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act so big corporations can bribe foreign officials and idles the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau so big financial institutions can screw consumers … because he’s fighting 24/7 for downtrodden ordinary Americans.

Underappreciated angle to the appointments of Patel, Gaetz, Bondi, et al.
Massive Fuq U to institutions …
But also a huge FU to the Supreme Court, because Trump doesn’t think they will be a check on his campaign of lawless retribution.
Nice work, John Roberts.

I ran OSHA 2009-2017, and am now often asked what will happen to #OSHA in the coming Trump administration. In this longish🧵, I try to summarize what happened during Trump I and begin to predict Trump II, recognizing that this one could be wildly different than the last one. 1/

Trump will restore Christian morals? Friends, we've been subjected to 9 years of news about affairs, sexual assaults, rape, drug-fueled orgies, and profane rants. There has been no filthier influence on our culture this past decade than Trump and his merry band of degenerates.

This week Donald Trump quietly named Russ Vought to be head of OMB—one of the chief architects of Project 2025.
Yes … THE Project 2025, which Donald Trump pretended to know nothing about. He lied.
It’s crystal clear, this is the blueprint for the coming administration.

Trump's pick for surgeon general, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, joined Fox News as a contributor at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic and has remained on the payroll ever since. Another example of the Fox-to-Trump pipeline

Condemning them to a 1,000% pay raise in the private sector and eternal respect from the legal community.
Trump can’t grasp that public service is a sacrifice for these best of the best.
The loser is American public who has witnessed the sort of legal talent Trump picks.
Breaking WaPo:
Trump plans to fire the entire team that worked with special counsel Jack Smith to pursue the two federal prosecutions against Trump — including career attorneys typically protected from political retribution, according to two individuals close to Trump's transition. washingtonpost.com/national-…

Honest to god, and I mean this, not just saying this for Twitter…
You need help. You’re on the verge of something unhealthy.
