@Mollyploofkins Trump is projecting. Again. Always.

@brianstelter We are a nation in decline because of Trump and his sycophants.

In a 1:52am post on Truth Social, Trump said "Colbert is finally finished at CBS," adding, "thank goodness he's finally gone!" That's the president cheering the loss of American jobs, since roughly 200 people are out of work due to the cancellation of "The Late Show."

@covie_93 The decline of democracy? Did I get it white?

What's going on here??

@RpsAgainstTrump Weak.

Trump just posted an AI-generated video of himself throwing Stephen Colbert into a dumpster. There’s truly no bottom.

Today is National Memo Day. Write one memo to your younger self in the comments — we will start

@washingtonpost Trump is not above the law.

Breaking news: The Justice Department expanded the government’s settlement deal over legal claims brought by President Trump, adding a provision that would prevent the IRS from pursuing past tax claims or audits of him, his family, or his businesses. wapo.st/4dxlyPb

@Reuters It's the mafia.

The US Justice Department has ‘forever barred’ the Internal Revenue Service ⁠from pursuing any audits into past tax claims for President Trump, his relatives and his companies, according to a one-page document reut.rs/4nB9qBq

@highbrow_nobrow So incredibly corrupt. And this is the example you want to give your children? Why hasn't this person been impeached yet?

@FT Mafia

@cnnbrk mafia

@ABC 10,000 more white supremacists.

The Trump administration plans to admit up to 10,000 more white South African refugees into the United States in the coming months, arguing that their status as Afrikaners has left them open to discrimination and persecution at home. Read more: abcnews.link/bQO7Sje

@NewYorker It's a mafia.

The race between Thomas Massie and Ed Gallrein in Kentucky asks the question: Can a Republican defy Trump in this day and age, and still expect to win? newyorker.com/news/the-lede/…

@GovBillLee @NFL Why should anyone support a white supremacist state?

Tennessee is proud to host the 2030 Super Bowl in Music City. 🏈 Super Bowl LXIV will drive tourism and fuel economic growth for communities across our state, and we look forward to welcoming @NFL football fans to Tennessee.

@MEMMNAATN @FOXNashville Trump?

@FOXNashville Blame the ones who pushed for ‘cancel culture’

Politics isn’t just dividing voters anymore: it’s ending friendships, relationships, and even family ties. A new study found 37% of Americans say they’ve lost someone close to them over political differences, with researchers warning the fallout may be fueling even deeper polarization.

@BeamRiverTown @FOXNashville Nah

@FOXNashville Democrats are united by only one thing, HATE. And it is because of this they cannot tolerate anyone not aligned with their political ideology.
