1. The sheer sloppiness. Proper amateur hour. 2. the use of an unapproved app to do government business

3. The use of disappearing messages re lethal action - no need to say more. 4. The role of JD Vance - and his views re Europe in particular.

Oops, Marjorie Taylor Greene just tweeted “Gulf of Mexico”

PatriotTakes 🇺🇸 Attention Pam Bondi: Marjorie Taylor Greene should now be considered a domestic terrorist for using the blasphemous words "Gulf of Mexico". Please take action now.

The #SignalGate episode is far, far more serious than the US administration is trying to suggest. It is not just a question of Mike Waltz making a “mistake” by accidentally including a journalist. They should never have been using the medium for the purpose they did.🧵1/6

4/ This is not about the accidental inclusion of a journalist, it’s about the fundamental principles for the handling of classified information. And the Group concerned is a who’s who of every senior official with a responsibility for National Security - they are all implicated.

Warren: If Hegseth has 'a silver of self respect,' he will resign. If Pete Hegseth had a sliver of self respect he wouldn't be a part of the Trump administration in the first place.

They would literally need to create a new internet for the number of think pieces in the media if Joe Biden was unaware that there were four missing and presumed dead service members hours after the story was reported, but Trump just gets away with it.

The Signal scandal likely involves criminal behavior. If there is no Department of Justice investigation then it will become 100% clear - if it isn’t already - that the law no longer applies to powerful people in this country.

It is a violation under the Fourth Geneva Convention to pose with prisoners. Secretary Kristi Noem

Meanwhile in Florida….absolute insanity with these proposed child labor laws

Republicans tried to jam through a resolution condemning vandalism of Tesla dealerships. I simply asked them to also pass a resolution condemning the pardons of the most violent Jan 6 rioters. Republicans objected. Because special rules apply to billionaires.

They have *already* affected critical government services, yet they haven’t made a dent in the deficit. In fact, the deficit has actually increased under Trump.

Important to realize that Trump’s approach to Canada and Greenland is like his approach to Ukraine. It’s not even American imperialism. It is America enabling Russian imperialism. It’s America destroying its own best alliances, cutting itself off from its own crucial bases,

SSA has NEVER missed a payment, and it was already operating at a 50-year low in personnel despite serving a record 73M Americans. So what Musk is doing has nothing to do with "efficiency." It's about sabotaging Social Security as he rigs the govt for billionaires like himself.

It is nearly 10. The president does not appear to have made it down to the West Wing yet.

So strange to talk of a president's "desires." I thought the country had national interests.

I hope Waltz didn’t lie to Trump. That would be bad.

Wu Tang is for the Children Florida isn't the only red state doing this shit. And it's only part of the puzzle. They're also banning abortion, restricting sex ed, keeping adult wages low and funneling money into discriminatory private schools which will eventually defund public schools all kids can access.

Kudos to NBC News for releasing the transcript of Kristen Welker's phone interview with Trump. The details are really revealing. Trump's stated premise about seeking an unconstitutional third term is predicated on his popularity, which he wildly exaggerates. 🧵
