The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L

PEOPLE NEED TO SEE THE TRUTH! This is the horrible video of Alex Pretti's execution overlaid with the nearly word-for-word, lie-riddled statements given back-to-back by Kristi Noem and Greg Bovino. You can judge for yourself whether what they claim happened maps onto the reality in the video.

Q: Can you explain how your healthcare plan will affect premiums? TRUMP: It's a tremendous thing. It's called the great healthcare plan. And we're gonna get tremendous, uh, reductions through, uh, if you look at prescription drugs, they're gonna come down by numbers that have never been seen before

By amplifying this post calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist,” the Trump administration just violated the court order that they reference.

This ad from the far-right Heritage Foundation repeats threats made directly by Trump, Vance, and others: "Do exactly as Trump wants, or he will cut off all funding for your state." Hopefully these types of threats, which underline that Trump is a dangerous dictator wanna-be, will backfire bigly.

Every time he brags about that cognitive test, I’m reminded it’s the one where you have to identify a picture of a lion. The fact that he thinks it’s an achievement might actually be the test.

Having an MRI done IMMEDIATELY after taking a cognitive exam is pretty much a confirmation of what we all suspect.

Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached. Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at? Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

Trump and his cronies are now pushing 50-year mortgages. Buckle up. This is going to make the 2008 mortgage crisis look like the good old days.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

"Andy Ngo and other far right extremists have been targeting Avalos since at least as early as July and trying to paint her as violent and a 'member of Antifa.' On court record, Ngo has admitted that his social media posts can lead to violence." It's projection from the right. All the way down.

Portland City Councilor @counciloravalos.bsky.social woke up to her car and home engulfed in flames late last night. She had to grab her cat and escape to safety.

CNN: Mike Johnson says Republicans have proposals to address healthcare subsidies and they can have them ready immediately. Over 400k people in Missouri are enrolled in the marketplace. Have you seen those proposals? REP. MARK ALFORD: No. I would like to.

The DoD’s weekly payroll is roughly $3.7 billion.

Trump: "I had a very wealthy person who called -- a donor, a great gentleman -- and he said, 'if there's any money necessary, shortfall, for the paying of the troops, then I will pay it.' Meaning he will pay it. How about that?"

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.
