The White House was built to serve the American people. Tonight it was used to promote a company the President owns stock in, sell subscriptions, promote corporate sponsors, push Trump crypto, and enrich the President and his family. The founders warned us about kings enriching themselves from public office. They did not fight a revolution for this.

The 10 hours of erecting scaffolding wasn’t to strip the letters (something that 30 minutes in a boom lift could accomplish), it was to conceal the view with a curtain because Trump couldn’t handle the optics of the letters of his name being plucked off the building.

Workers continue to deploy a curtain to further conceal the removal of Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center

Trump said something outside a press gaggle that I don’t think enough people caught. A reporter called him out on the corruption. He gave three responses. 1. I have the right to do it. 2. He’s not stealing that much. A billion or two billion dollars. Not that much money. Classic Trump. 3. People don’t care. That’s the permission structure. Our collective apathy is what they’re using to justify everything happening in Washington right now. Please stand up and prove him wrong.

43% of Republicans disapprove of Trump’s economic policies, but polls still show only a small lead for Democrats. However, if enough Republican voters just don’t bother, it may lead to a Democratic victory in the midterms, maybe even in the Senate. #USEconomy #Trump #USAelections

Ruining our democracy wasn’t enough for Trump. Now he’s destroying our planet, too. Welcome to the Stone Age!

EU fiscal rules are not just wrong on principle and lack any economic basis, they also have zero credibility. Taking energy spending out is just the latest example. Fining a country to get them to reduce their deficit is also ridiculous. #EU #energyprices

These are the useless things the Eurozone does which brings it unnecessary opposition. Let sovereign countries decide their national fiscal policy and not ā€œpunishā€ them. The magical 3% rule is completely made up. #EU #Bulgaria #Eurozone

Russia is now threatening other nearby countries far more openly than before. Every neighbor of Russia heard what was said about Armenia, whose people are the only ones who have the right to decide and will choose the future of their country. What Russia says about Armenia is, in truth, not about Armenia alone. No one can be left without support – Europe has no right to lose any of its peoples, to leave any country behind. Armenia must be supported. Moldova must be supported. The Baltic states. Azerbaijan must be supported. We must find ways to support the people of Georgia as well – and this is a shared European task. No one can be lost.

Robert De Niro on Donald Trump: ā€œHe’s a punk. He’s a dog. He’s a pig. He’s a con. A bullshit artist. A mutt who doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Doesn’t do his homework. Doesn’t care. Doesn’t pay his taxes. He’s an idiot. He’s a national disaster. He’s an embarrassment to this country.ā€

American soldiers die in Trump's war, not a word from Donald. Gas and food prices skyrocket, not a word from Donald. People demand the Epstein files, not a word from Donald. But the minute you take his fat name off a building, Donald writes Mein Kampf for Morons.

Ken Paxton is throwing everything he has at us. He’s called me a radical leftist. He’s called me a fake Christian. He’s even called me a vegan! I’m an 8th generation Texan — I've been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.
