As a journalist, it's not my job to tell you who to vote for.
As a journalist, it IS my job to warn you that if we vote Donald Trump back into office, it may be the last vote we ever cast.

At Trader Joe's, a coffee shop, a military hospital and a real estate firm, top international broadcasters from Voice of America are embracing second acts they never asked for.

Polite reminder. Trump & Brexit are not 2 different things. They are the same thing. Same companies. Same data. Same Facebook. Same Russians. Same Cambridge Analytica. Same Robert Mercer. Same Steve Bannon. Same Breitbart. Same Alexander Nix. Same Donald Trump. Same Nigel Farage.

How is she insane?
Donald Trump built his cult on conspiracy theories. He is the conspiracy theorist in chief. She is giving his people what they want.
Perfectly rational behavior. Immoral, sure. But rational.
Acyn@Acyn
Concha: I’ll be happy to attach a name to the conspiracy theorist. Candace Owens is insane and the fact that she mocks Erika Kirk is a whole bowl of wrong and she deserves to be called out. Gaines: I'm glad you said that. Concha: Candace Owens is insane

He did my radio show (RIP) when he was running for president. I asked him whether Americans were ready for an unmarried president and he replied something to the effect that married people had screwed up the world and it was time for a change.

Rahm Emanuel says his speech criticizing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Tel Aviv University was more than criticism — he says he “laid out a plan that gets out of Israel being a pariah.”
“It went from technological prowess to a territorial pariah,” he tells @margbrennan. “And for a small nation, that's not survivable. In 22 years, it will be 100 years old. You cannot survive like this.”

If they do this to Americans, imagine what they do to Palestinians.

Ro Khanna: “The IDF is lying. What happened was unprecedented. They had violent settlers detain American citizens including an American government official. You had these settlers brandishing M4s, kicking the tires of our van, laughing at us, mocking at us, videotaping us. We were detained for about 20 minutes, fearful for our lives. How dare they mistreat people with an American passport that way”

Giving Stephen Miller a run for his money.

Trump swore he "would not sign" the housing bill. He let it pass anyway. Inside it: a Section 8 expansion — better zip codes for the next Michael Brown. Yours, for instance. Guess who's made millions off Section 8 housing? Jared Kushner.

They’re not exactly building them. The Air Force bought two finished 747 airliners that a Russian airline had bought before going bankrupt and never got to use, and contracted with Boeing to have those two planes stripped down to studs and rebuilt as VC-25B VIP transports.
There had been a contract for Boeing to build two new ones from the ground up, but Trump ordered that canceled because he thought it was too expensive.
Had he done nothing, the new ones would have been ready years ago, but instead, Boeing has had to figure out how to turn an airliner into a flying mobile command center that is hardened against the effects of nuclear weapons and all sorts of other dangers.
That’s actually far more difficult than building the new Air Force One aircraft to spec from the ground up.

After the Harris debate in 2024, I walked up to Lindsey Graham outside the spin room, he immediately laced into me for how I had turned on the GOP. He was red-faced, spittling as he ranted. A heated back and forth ensued. It petered out and I started walking away. He followed me, made a wry remark about Trumps debate prep team being a disaster. I turned around. He told a funny old story from the 2016 campaign. We laughed. He gave a pat on the shoulder and pretended like he might come on the podcast. That encounter was Lindsey in a nutshell.
Wish things had been different the last ten years. Alas. Will have more tomorrow. RIP.

Graham wanted Ukraine to remain free.
Trump wants Putin to win.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Trump, talking to Jake Tapper, says about Lindsey Graham that "I wanted to see the war with Ukraine end very quickly. I think he was more into, you know, keeping it going, frankly."
English
“We had a deal yesterday. They were giving up everything”
Anyone who still believes that Trump was ever a good “dealmaker” is a complete idiot.
Acyn@Acyn
Tapper: Are you back at war with Iran and who controls the Strait of Hormuz? Trump: Out of respect for Lindsey, I’m not talking about it. We hit them very hard last night. We had a deal yesterday. They were giving up everything and then all of the sudden, they hit a ship.

Notice the sequence, because it matters. Vance didn't repeat a rumor he mistakenly believed. He was told directly by Springfield's city manager that the pet eating claim was baseless, and he amplified it to eleven million views anyway. That's not an error. That's a choice, made by a man who has spoken openly about his faith shaping his politics.
The part that should bother anyone paying attention isn't just the hoax. It's what happened when the hoax got debunked within eight days. The women whose Facebook posts started it apologized, having realized their claims were rumor. Vance never did. He offered instead an admission that he "creates stories," a euphemism for lying, dressed up as media strategy.
Now the TPS protections that hoax helped justify politically are actually ending, with real people losing the legal right to work as of today. Whatever problems existed in Springfield, and there were some, real strain on clinics and services, were already being covered honestly before Vance decided the truth needed embellishing. He chose the lie anyway, and the lie became policy.

"It turned out that Vance mentioned this report after being told by the Springfield city manager that it was baseless. Apparently, Vance’s Christian conversion never got to the 'Thou shalt not bear false witness' part." Do not forget this: lnk.thebulwark.com/4vrZNap
