This is an unprecedented level of corruption. Trump is forcing the government to drop ALL tax audits of him, his family, and his businesses—giving him FULL IMMUNITY from prosecution. What is Trump hiding from the American people? Congress must step up and stop this corruption.

@GregFergus 👏👏👏👏👏

I'm an unapologetic Montreal Canadiens fan, but I will not soon forget the classy Buffalo fans for completing the Canadian national anthem when the singer's mic conked out. Respect.

@RCdeWinter This is why we love you ❤️❤️❤️

Here's my semi annual invitation to all the people who follow me who I haven't followed back yet and with whom I will never be able to catch up in this lifetime though I've been here since Christ was a corporal : I'm extremely humbled to have so many wonderful friends and acquaintances here and to see all the rest of you who have decided to join the mess in my timeline. With these numbers there's no way I will ever catch up in this lifetime but if you actually care about me following you because you'd like to exchange words please feel free to reach out without being embarrassed. I will vet you and if you're not a Trumper a cam whore a racist a misogynist or an active salesperson of any kind including bitcoin I will more than likely follow you back. I'm not just here to shout and yell, I'm also here to have conversations and learn from other people.

@theliamnissan @Reputationista Yes we will!

When Hitler died (of natural causes) the German people removed his name from every building, monument, and roadway in the country. America will do the same with Donald Trump.

@RCdeWinter We all age, but the truly beautiful people still shine. You are “ bright “ as ever. Never stop, keep on being yourself. We appreciate all of your efforts, work and excellent attitude. ❤️❤️❤️🍷🥂🍸🥃

who can take this look seriously – seriously  i’m a superannuated dandelion  just about gone to seed  i’m surprised kids don’t cry and dogs don’t bark when they see me coming  and as for men i may as well be a ghost but this is who i am so beauty be damned  i’ll smile all the same ~ RC deWinter

@FriedgeHNIC Yes they did.

They gave us a GREAT Game 7

The US National Institutes of Health (NIH) has one of the few labs in the world which can study Ebola virus. In March 2025 RFK Jr had it shut down. We now have a huge Ebola outbreak on our hands. What a foolish move

The Trump phenomenon: why did half of America believe a liar? Many people keep asking the same question: how did Donald Trump come to power? Why did such massive support go to a man widely seen as uneducated, irresponsible, and narcissistically self-obsessed? Why did intelligence, competence, and experience suddenly carry so little political weight — and what does that say about democracy itself? • Populism always sells simple answers. Where experts talk about complexity, risks, and nuance, populists shout slogans. “Build the wall.” “Bring back greatness.” A slogan is always shorter than analysis — and therefore more effective for masses tired of thinking, or who never wanted to think deeply in the first place. • Emotion defeats argument. Trump, like every demagogue, spoke not to reason but to emotion. His rhetoric was built on anger, resentment, and fear. He created enemies, promised revenge, and avoided complicated explanations. Like many populists before him, he relied less on programs and more on outrage and emotionally charged narratives. • Simplicity becomes the language of the “common people.” Intellectuals almost always lose in mass politics. Complex language irritates people. Many feel uncomfortable when they do not understand something, but instead of admitting it, they blame the speaker. The person who speaks more simply is seen as “one of us.” • Confidence is mistaken for competence. Human nature has not changed. People still confuse decisiveness with wisdom and confidence with knowledge. Trump became a perfect example of the Dunning–Kruger effect: a man with limited understanding who presents himself as a genius. Yet this blind self-confidence is exactly what many voters perceive as strength. • Populists surround themselves with weaker people. Demagogues and authoritarian-minded leaders fear intelligent independent thinkers. That is why they often surround themselves with loyal but less competent figures. Trump’s first administration was partially restrained by institutional inertia and traditional Republicans. Later, many critics argued he increasingly preferred loyalists, conspiracy theorists, and ideological fanatics over experienced professionals. • History keeps repeating itself. A society searching for easy answers repeatedly opens the door to demagogues. Instead of embracing the difficult reality of democracy — compromise, institutions, responsibility — people choose the illusion of simplicity. They want a “strong leader” who supposedly “knows how” and will finally “tell the truth,” even if that truth is largely fiction. • Knowledge itself becomes a disadvantage. One of the paradoxes of modern politics is that intellect often appears weak. Thoughtfulness creates doubt, and doubt annoys people. The one who analyzes seems uncertain. The one who promises certainty sounds convincing. For many voters, appearance matters more than reality. The lesson is simple and brutal: democracy without thoughtful voters is only a shell. As long as large parts of society continue believing in easy answers to complex problems, the Trump phenomenon — or something very similar to it — will keep returning in different countries and under different faces. And every time, it comes with the same promise: “I alone can fix it.” That is why democracy requires more than voting. It requires thinking. Without that, anyone with a slogan can become your master.

@RCdeWinter That they do. 🤡

How do you spot a Trumper at a dinner party? Don't worry, they'll let you know.

@Gianl1974 It should be removed from Earth.

SHOULD DONALD TRUMP'S NAME BE REMOVED FROM FEDERAL PROPERTY AND MONUMENTS ??

@TheTweetOfGod @johnpavlovitz 💯

Fuck you an infinite number of times.

Are you alive today? If you didn’t die from COVID, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, SARS, swine flu, anthrax, tuberculosis, malaria, or other diarrheal diseases, you have the great Dr. Tony Fauci to thank.

@RCdeWinter @nytimes @SienaResearch Stupid and bigoted.

in the latest @nytimes – @SienaResearch poll just 37% of Americans approve of his performance as president, a drop of four percentage points from the last Times/Siena poll in January and his lowest approval rating in any Times/Siena survey in either term. Still, it's a freaking third of the country… There are a lot of really stupid people in America.

@MarkJCarney @CanadiensMTL

The @CanadiensMTL are headed to the Eastern Conference Finals. All of Canada is behind you. 🇨🇦

@ReallyAmerican1 @SarahLarchmont @RAMediaNetwork This needs to happen.

Steve Harness: “When is a reporter gonna snap back and say don’t you fucking talk to me that way? I’m a goddamned adult. I’m here working. You work for us, asshole. Go fuck yourself. Somebody, for the love of God, I will buy the Pulitzer for you if you will just tell this man how fucking dare you, do not talk to me that way”

Historically, American presidents have inspired nations & challenged tyrants. Now America has a fucking dipshit proudly explaining he swapped one vowel and came up with “Dumocrats,” like a drunk uncle who just learned he can spell ‘BOOBS’ on a calculator.

Trump thinks he knows better than admirals and generals. He doesn't. 13 Americans are dead. Thousands of innocent lives have been lost. Costs are rising at home. And still there is no clear strategic objective. That’s the price of arrogance without strategy.
