Five fucking dollars to use the air compressor at the gas station. FIVE. Remember when air used to be free?? They take Apple Pay now. I don’t even recognize my country anymore.
Tonight, I’m directing the U.S. military to establish a temporary pier on the Gaza coast that can receive shipments of food, water, medicine, and shelter.
To Israel, I say humanitarian assistance cannot be secondary.
Protecting and saving innocent lives must be a priority.
I seriously can’t get over what I just watched. National remarks from Biden about how he’s mentally fit and he literally stops speaking because he forgets where his dead kid’s rosary is from and then calls for the President of Mexico to open the Gaza border.
I thought I’d be married w/ kids by now but I’m not. I’m 36 with next to no desire to date anymore. It’s exhausting and a losing numbers game. Not everyone is called to be married or have kids. This weird “less than” approach people on the right are taking towards unmarried &
ABC News: “President Biden set to give a high-stakes, live, unscripted press conference, taking questions afterwards.”
A press conference is one of the most normal and regular things a President can (and should) do, but for some reason with Biden it’s a serious, national event.
Listen to Sgt. Tyler Vargas-Andrews recount when the President visited him in the hospital after his arm was blown off during the explosion at the Kabul airport in Afghanistan.
Joe Biden is an asshole.
Kudos to
@DLoesch
for her appearance tonight. She showed grace under fire and respectful restraint when fielding questions from an understandably emotional crowd. I’m proud to have her as my

spokeswoman.
Breaking News: California detailed a sweeping ban on the sale of new gasoline cars by 2035, a move that could speed a global transition to electric vehicles.
My favorite Kamala moment was when her office posted a YouTube video of her talking to kids about space and NASA and then we found out later they were all paid child actors.
Just stunning that a week ago all we heard was, “Fetterman’s doctor says he is 100% healthy and doesn’t have any work restrictions” and now post-debate all we hear is, “leave the disabled man alone, you bully!”
Stephen Hayes and Jonah Goldberg are arguing with Sarah Longwell and Tom Nichols about David French voting for Kamala, and I really can’t think of a better representation of how that entire sector of politics likes to live in a giant terrarium filled with their own farts.
Just wait until the bridge gets rebuilt and then completely renamed because Francis Scott Key has a “problematic history” and The Star-Spangled Banner is a “racist national anthem.”
Biden privately threatened to rethink his support for the war in a private call with Netanyahu in February, two months before doing so publicly, but the White House didn't put it into the readout of the call to try to avoid a public blowup.
I know hidden junk fees – like processing fees on concert tickets – are a pain.
They’re unfair, deceptive, and add up.
That’s why, last week, I called on my Administration to crack down on these fees and put that money back in your pocket.
Remember like two or three years ago when we were told that that DEI and CRT aren’t being taught in elementary or grade schools because “it’s just a theory” and now there’s orgs called Woke Kindergarten just out in the open raking in $$
A Bay Area school struggling to boost low test scores and student attendance is paying $250,000 for an organization called Woke Kindergarten to train teachers to disrupt racism and remove those barriers to learning. Its test scores fell even further.
Trying to imagine what policy position Kamala Harris could have that would make David French go, “yeah, so, I actually don’t think I can vote for you now.”
If Joe Biden is calling for a ban on 9mm handguns, then it’s the most radical position on guns from a president in my lifetime. If he misspoke or doesn’t understand the difference between 9mm and .223, then he’s too incompetent and too uneducated to be commenting on the matter.
Concert tickets are hard enough to get, you shouldn’t have to pay surprise service fees on top of that.
My Administration is working to crack down on those junk fees, so you know what you are paying for up front.
Sorry guys. You had a chance to write about Biden’s age and very obvious cognitive decline in 2020 but you all decided it was more important to get pics of him deep throating a waffle cone.
Only the Lincoln Project would think a photo of Franken molesting a woman *while she’s unconscious* is “less salacious” than a photo of a drunk man wearing a bra on a cruise ship.
$Billions sent to Ukraine every few months with no idea where the money is actually going, but don’t you dare forget to file a 1099 with the IRS for using Venmo.
This is not a crybaby post about being unmarried & not having kids. I’m perfectly happy where I am. I love being the cool aunt. I think it’s great when people find their love and make a bunch of babies. But uhh single/childless ppl like me matter, too. We aren’t failures.
Putting aside the fact that Chicago is a sanctuary city, uhh Abbott isn’t the one letting them all in. In fact, the DOJ threatened to sue his state if he *didn’t* let them in. A great question for Mayor Johnson would be, where are they all supposed to go?
A plane carrying more migrants from Texas arrived in the Chicago area overnight, which
@ChicagosMayor
Brandon Johnson calls "a very dangerous task" by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and a matter of national security.
"Governor Abbott is determined to continue to sow seeds of chaos."

Just wondering, did you also “misprint” your rank as Command Sergeant Major on your Congressional Challenge Coin?

If we elect more Democrats to the Senate and keep the House, here is the promise I make to you and the American people: The first bill that I will send to Congress will be to codify Roe v. Wade.
JUST IN: San Francisco will receive help from U.S. National Guard & California Highway Patrol to battle the city's drug crisis.
Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the decision Friday along with Mayor London Breed, DA Brooke Jenkins & Police Chief Bill Scott.
Which scenario amounts to actual election interference: Elon Musk voicing his personal thoughts on which party should control congress OR the 2020 Twitter execs banning accounts that share an entirely accurate news story about Hunter Biden?
There’s no way a reporter can act as irresponsible and dishonest as Lorenz does and still have a job, unless of course their employer is 100% okay with that type of behavior. Lorenz acts with impunity because Washington Post approves of her methods.
Taylor Lorenz is the rule, not the exception, at the Washington Post.
Last year, the paper ran a hit piece against me and had to retract or add six full paragraphs, admit to fabricating a timeline, and reverse a key accusation, which I proved was false.

's leadership, New Zealand has banned assault rifles and military-style semi-automatic weapons just six days after the Christchurch mosque attacks.
Public servants didn't stop at offering thoughts and prayers. They chose to act.
Remember when she listed her friend, Leland Kaiser, as an eyewitness and then when Kaiser said it never happened, Blasey Ford and her lawyer said Kaiser had mental problems? That was fun.
Christine Blasey Ford’s new memoir places her Senate testimony in the wider context of her life. And as her story goes on, it "comes to read as an indictment—not of one person, but of a form of politics that sees stories as weapons in an endless war,”

Good job, Merrick Garland. Your weakness has orchestrated the indictment of a private citizen trying to overcome drug addiction so Republicans can try to hit a bank shot off of him to his loving father, all because you were afraid of looking "political" to Fox News viewers.
I’ve legitimately lost track of how many different families/service members were visited by Joe Biden after the Afghanistan withdrawal and have recounted how he brought up his son Beau’s death in a way to imply that he died in a similar manner. It’s so gross.
BREAKING: Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip have launched dozens of rockets toward Israel, setting off air raid sirens across the country. The sound of outgoing rockets whooshing through the air could be heard in Gaza.
Biden on the images of border patrol agents in Del Rio: "I promise you, those people will pay."
"There will be consequences. It's an embarrassment. But beyond an embarrassment is dangerous, it's wrong."
As a child, I was put on a train and sent off by the government to a faraway place we’d never heard of. As a survivor of that policy, I am appalled by what governors in TX and FL are doing now. Politicians back then treated us as political scapegoats, less than human.

Fauci lied to the country about masking and herd immunity goals while posing for magazine covers & throwing out pitches at MLB games. He was in favor of long term lockdowns, kids missing school, & perpetual masking. He has zero interest in Covid origins. He should be chucked.
The woman who claimed that fetal heartbeats on an ultrasound machine were fake and manufactured is now claiming that it’s a fallacy to say doctors know when a pregnancy starts.
Shanon: "Were you to become governor, where would you draw the line? 15 weeks? Viability? 36 weeks? What's the limit?"
Stacey Abrams: "The arbitrary standards of timelines ignore the medical reality that it is a fallacy we know exactly when a pregnancy starts."
See how the feedback loop works? WH puts out statement re-defining recession; news outlets use new definition (“people might be afraid we are *headed towards* recession”), WH will issue statement later to allay fears (“the news says we aren’t there yet! Don’t worry!)
BREAKING: The U.S. economy shrank for a second straight quarter, contracting at a 0.9% annual pace and raising fears that the nation may be approaching a recession.
