republicans don and shed their skinsuits that allow them to change positions and opinions on everything

they have no moral center, they have no positions they hold dear, they will do and say anything for more money and power

i wish more people understood that

#Trump also submitted his annual disclosure form in June, which indicated that income from his various ventures still ultimately goes to him, raising concerns of #ConflictsOfInterest.

In that annual disclosure, which appeared to cover the 2024 calendar year, Trump reported >$600 million in income from cryptocurrencies, golf properties, licensing & other ventures. It also showed Trump's push into #crypto had added substantially to his #wealth.

And then think of what a cornered psychopathic human being with the morals and instincts of a rat and control of over five thousand nuclear warheads would do.

#Trump, who #inherited #wealth from his father’s work in the real estate sector, has previously said that he placed his companies into a trust overseen by his children. [but he said that during his first term too, & it turned out not to be true.]

A disclosure filed in Aug indicated that Trump had purchased >$100 million in #bonds since returning to the presidency on Jan 20.

#Trump also acquired #Intel #bonds after the #US #government, under Trump's direction, acquired a stake in the company.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment. The admin has said before that Trump has continued to file mandatory disclosures about his #investments but that neither he nor his family has a role in running the portfolio, which is managed by a 3rd-party financial institution. 🤨

We've had the Affordable Care Act for 15 years. 15 years of not being denied coverage for preexisting conditions. 15 years of no lifetime caps on coverage. 15 years of free cancer screenings, STI tests, PrEP, and birth control. And in that 15 years, Republicans have not offered a single alternative healthcare plan.
They've only tried take your healthcare away 70+ times.

I recall Trump promising to build a wall.

I just did not think it was a wall around the Epstein files.

Marjorie Taylor Greene was hired, trained, and paid by tech oligarchs & others from the very beginning to be a political troublemaker. With Trump’s downfall looming, Greene is now being strategically groomed to be JD Vance’s vice president.

Mark my words.

Just because Trump is attacking Greene and Massie doesn't make Greene and Massie suddenly become decent people.

They are not decent people. It just turns out that they're slightly less bad than is Trump which is not a high bar.

DOJ estimates that Epstein and his fellow child abusers trafficked at least 200 children.

Meanwhile, experts estimate that in 2025, roughly 2600 minors were forced into a child marriage in the United States. That’s some 50 minors every week, or about seven per day, every single day of the year. And unless we act immediately, that trend is expected to continue in 2026.

Here’s how bad the situation is, and what we can do to stop it.
