He more than mad.

He insane

 

Why can’t they do something about this guy?

Damn... here's more:

A little background:

https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/1488

"1488 is a combination of two popular white supremacist numeric symbols. The first symbol is 14, which is shorthand for the "14 Words" slogan: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." The second is 88, which stands for "Heil Hitler" (H being the 8th letter of the alphabet). Together, the numbers form a general endorsement of white supremacy and its beliefs. As such, they are ubiquitous within the white supremacist movement "

 

 

Who would have thought that following modern american politics, one would become versed in nazi imagery and symbolism...

And he didn't testify this at the impeachment trial for reasons of?

As Adam Schiff said he may be an author but he aint no Patriot.

Coward.

Bolton is only a little less pathlogical than Trump and significantly smarter (who isn't?) and stands to make a lot of money fromt he sales of his book. Truly, there are no angels in this exchange and it certainly gives another peek into the machinations within the Trump death cult.

Seeing the GOP attack Chief Justice over the DACA ruling is hilarious.  Telling him to quit and run for elected office as if he’s not as entitled to his legal opinion as the other justices.  Once again the GOP doesn’t believe the law applies to them.

This and Trump’s “maybe SCOTUS doesn’t like me” tweet show just how broken and partisan the system is. The judiciary is supposed to be a co-equal branch or government, balancing the executive (President) and legislative (Congress), so they are meant to make rulings and not just bend to the whim of another branch. Also, judges are appointed for life so that they can be impartial and not answer to anyone else, thus keeping their impartiality. But Trump and the GOP figure “we appointed you, now go do our bidding forever regardless of what the law says, you owe us”. The fact that so many judges have ruled along party lines is an embarrassment to any judiciary, much less the highest court in the land. And the fact that politicians appoint based on who will carry the water for their party and are shocked when judges rule based on legal principle is an indictment of the whole process. Drain the swamp, indeed.

Trump wants to find and prosecute person who leaked that he hid in a bunker during protests: report


Trump is lashing out so much that "many advisers wonder if he is truly interested in serving a second term". President Donald Trump is "consumed" by leaks coming from the White House as aides worry his "incendiary behavior" could sink his re-election hopes, according to The New York Times.

Trump has obsessed over media reports that he was rushed to the White House bunker with his family during a protest against police brutality following the death of George Floyd in police custody. He has gone as far as "demanding that officials find and prosecute those responsible" for leaking the incident to the press, according to the report.

Twitter has added a "manipulated media" tag to one of Trump's videos.

The real video has been added to show what actually happened. Bonus is the manipulated video misspells the word "toddler" in the chyron. 🤣

Yes, I saw the original video and I would imagine quite a few people did.

Its just an abhorrent act by the creator of this, and of course, the trumpman, for approving it.

This is CNN’s response:

Replying to 
@realDonaldTrump
CNN did cover this story - exactly as it happened. Just as we reported your positions on race (and poll numbers). We’ll continue working with facts rather than tweeting fake videos that exploit innocent children. We invite you to do the same. Be better.

Fox News lawyer tells judge that Tucker Carlson's audience doesn't expect him to report the facts. "It's not the front page of the New York Times," a network attorney says in court. "It's 'Tucker Carlson Tonight'"


An attorney for Fox News told a New York federal judge at a preliminary hearing that Tucker Carlson's audience does not expect him to report the facts — even when Carlson tells his audience that he is doing so.

And the attorney further argued that Carlson has no duty to look into whether his statements are truthful.

To be fair, I don't expect Carlson to report the facts, either.....

That is such bullshit. Anyone enabling him in any way is complicit. Let him make bad decisions, perhaps it will force the senate to actually do their jobs and hold an out of control president accountable.
