July 21 1935: The Führer orders a new reception hall and ballroom to "entertain foreign diplomats" at the Chancellery. Underneath the dance floor is an air raid shelter. A 2nd deeper bunker is built next to this in 1944, where he would spend his last days as the Reich collapsed.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Trump rants that his ballroom will feature "Bomb Shelters, a State of the Art Hospital and Medical Facilities, Protective Partitioning, Top Secret Military Installations, Structures, and Equipment, Protective Missile Resistant Steel, Columns, Roofs, and Beams, Drone Proof Ceilings and Roofs, Military Grade Venting, and Bullet, Ballistic, and Blast Proof Glass." "The Ballroom is deeply important to our National Security, and no Judge can be allowed to stop this Historic and Militarily Imperative Project," he adds.

@BrandonLBradfor You should probably delete this tree tweet. I know it was unintentional, but it is wrong.

To be clear here, if it was a tie, JD Vance would have broken that tie
But still, every Democrat that does vote for the war should still be primaried
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
BREAKING: The House just failed to pass a resolution to end Trump's war with Iran by one vote. The count was 213-214. Just one Democrat, Jared Golden, voted to let Trump keep waging the war.

And the scary fact is that none of this occurred to the people running the country.
They are so out of touch that they saw nothing wrong with a grandma working DoorDash to pay for her husband’s cancer treatments.
FactPost@factpostnews
Schulz: Why would Trump bring a grandma that needs to work DoorDash? Don't we wanna live in a country where grandmas don't have to work DoorDash? What kind of delusional reality are we living in, where Trump is parading around the grandma that's working DoorDash so she can afford to pay her husband's cancer bills?

@Jamie_Weinstein Because out of towners buy up all the property and increase prices for actual New Yorkers.
It’s not rocket science

How does Ken Griffin owning a $238 million condo in NYC he only visits occasionally harm New Yorkers exactly?
He pays an extraordinary high property tax to the city for services he barely uses.
Why ridicule him for this?

The left engaged in a 25 year war against cow farts and now pretends they have no idea why herds are small and prices are high.
The Associated Press@AP
U.S. beef prices are at record highs in part because the country's cattle herd is the smallest since the 1950s. apnews.com/article/beef-c…

So willing to give a non-Democrat (Majorie Taylor-Greene) a chance, but not an actual Democrat (Kamala Harris).
David Hogg is full of shit.
He's apart of Leftists that think bcuz SOME MAGA have fallen out of love with Trump that means they are gonna vote for Dems

@robertgraham I don’t understand how parliamentary systems where the leader of the country is elected by the parliament is at all comparable to the electoral college.
What is your reasoning for how the parliamentary system gives more electoral power to rural or swing parts of the country?
English
There is a good civic argument for the "electoral college".
Almost all western democracies give more weight to rural voters, for the same reason as the original compromise when ratifying the Constitution. Without some counterbalance, rural areas simply become "colonies" of urban areas, with government serving the interests of urban areas over the wishes of rural areas.
In almost all western democracies, the person leading the country is not chosen by a popular vote, but by representatives. Those representatives are in turn chosen primarily as local representatives for individual communities.
The electoral college giving more voting power to some is not a violation of democratic principles, but the norm in western liberal democracies.
James Surowiecki@JamesSurowiecki
There's no good civic argument for the electoral college. It was arguably necessary to ensure the ratification of the Constitution, but it's an anti-democratic device that gives some American citizens far more voting power than others, based purely on where they live.

I’ve been struck by Mamdani’s outward hatred for a while. People can debate tax policy. But he talks about many of his own constituents—who contribute massively to the NYC economy—as if they’re cartoon supervillains. Odd way to operate when he claims to be led by “compassion.”
English
Setting policy aside, the worst thing about Mamdani’s mayoralty is his very obvious contempt for the wealthy—as if they’re evil simply because they’ve made money. He films himself outside a rich man’s home, *names the guy* and sneers. Terrible quality in a leader.

The chilling effect of this outrageous persecution of a laywer for giving advice to his client — the President — cannot be overstated.
John Eastman@DrJohnEastman
"Denied; disbarred." With that cursory ruling, the Cal. S.Ct declined to take my case despite clear First Amendment violations. So Bar Court disbarment recommendation now takes effect. We will appeal to U.S. S.Ct. Costly, but important. Please help here. givesendgo.com/Eastman

@Franklin_Graham @realDonaldTrump Pathetic man, absolutely pathetic and weak.

I had received some questions about President @realDonaldTrump's recent posts, and here are my thoughts:
I do not believe President Trump would knowingly depict himself as Jesus Christ—that would certainly be inappropriate. I’m thankful the President has made it very clear that this was not at all what he thought the AI-generated image was representing—he thought it was a doctor helping someone, and when he learned of the concerns, he immediately removed the post.
When I looked at the illustration, I didn’t jump to the same conclusion as some. There were no spiritual references—no halo, there were no crosses, no angels. It was a flag, soldiers, a nurse, fighter planes, eagles, the Statue of Liberty, and I think this is a lot to do about nothing. There is so much ill-intended speculation. I think his enemies are always foaming at the mouth at any possible opportunity to make him look bad.
And the illustration from someone else he reposted on Truth Social yesterday, I must say that I like the fact that this is a picture of Jesus whispering in his ear, or at least His hand on his shoulder, guiding him. We all need that—we all need to be listening to Jesus. Again, I think there is an attempt to spin this into something that it isn’t. Remember, President Trump didn’t draw this, he didn’t create it, he reposted it on his social media because he thought it was nice—I would have to agree.
I’m not a Catholic, I’m an evangelical, but I appreciate how President Trump has defended religious freedom for people of all faiths, including millions of evangelicals and Catholics in the U.S. and around the world. He is the most pro-Christian, pro-life president in my lifetime, and he doesn’t shy away from it. I would hope that the President and Pope Leo can meet at some point, and that the Pope would have the opportunity to thank the President for his efforts to protect religious liberty for Catholics and people of all faiths.

It’s really gross how a federal agency is blatantly politicizing the tragic death of one of its employees.
Homeland Security@DHSgov
Lauren Bullis, a DHS employee, was shot and stabbed while she was walking her dog by a citizen naturalized by the Biden administration. Lauren served in multiple roles at DHS Office of Inspector General, including as an Auditor in the Office of Audits and as a Team Leader in the Office of Innovation. In every role she held, Lauren exemplified dedication to the OIG mission. Lauren approached her work with integrity, thoughtfulness, and a commitment to excellence that strengthened our organization and the communities we serve. Beyond her professional accomplishments, Lauren was a bright spot for so many of the DHS community. She brought warmth, kindness, and a genuine sense of care to her colleagues each day. This horrific incident is a devastating loss for the entire DHS community.

Why are you politicizing this? She was a random victim. Nothing to do with her job.
Why does it matter whose administration the perpetrator was naturalized under?
The fact remains he lawfully immigrated and became a citizen. His crimes are his crimes alone.

The California Supreme Court sent a clear and terrorizing message:
If attorneys represent disfavored political candidates who challenge disputed elections, California will disbar them.
While this happens in failed third-world countries, this should never happen in America.

Marie-Thérèse is 86 years old.
Handcuffed. Wrists and ankles.
Sitting in an ICE detention facility in Louisiana with roughly 70 other detainees.
She has heart problems. She has a bad back.
Her children in France didn’t know where she was for a week.
Here’s why:
Sixty years ago she fell in love with an American soldier. They lost each other. They found each other again.
They got married. Billy was a retired U.S. Army colonel.
Billy died in January.
Marie-Thérèse had a green card application pending.
Then there was an inheritance dispute with Billy’s son.
Billy’s son reportedly called ICE.
DHS called her “an illegal alien from France.”
This is what we’re doing to the 86-year-old widow of an American veteran.
What exactly are we protecting?

“I love the Catholic Church… I just wish they’d stick to fixing the Church and stay out of politics.” Tom Homan, a lifelong Catholic, fires back after Pope Leo criticizes U.S. immigration enforcement. "I wish they'd sit down with me and hear my experiences the last 40 years. Maybe they'd understand why a secure border saves lives."
