Bob Woodward just said on #MorningJoe that Trump asked Woodward *a month ago* if his fake “historic peace accord between Israel and Bahrain” would make it in the book. Woodward asked “what about the virus?” Trump responded that he did all he could. #TrumpDoesntCare #TrumpTownHall
The kissing Netanyahu’s ass yesterday, giving him the key to the White house...that wasn’t a peace accord we saw...that was the Trump family’s exit plan.
Jared Kushner told Woodward that the lying is Trump’s winning strategy. Kushner said “controversy elevates Trump’s message.” They LIE because they know it will create controversy, the media will repeat and elevate the message. Woodward says this lying is calculated, intentional.
Here’s what Trump is doing to the Hispanic population. He is seeking to cut the Department of Housing and Urban Development by about $8.6 billion (15.2 percent), which would take a toll on the economic empowerment of millions of Latinos.
Today, Latinos already account for a $2.3 trillion economy—the eighth largest in the world if it were ranked on its own. Investments in programs that empower Latino communities.
While the Latino public school student population has doubled over the past 20 years, three-quarters are segregated in high-poverty schools, which suffer from fewer resources.
11 Ways Trump’s Condition Undermines Our Republic By Vince Greenwood, Ph.D. -- a thread:

#DutyToInform #DutyToWarn #UnfitToBePresident
1. Because of his greater than normal need for stimulation and impulsivity, disruptions to our government’s legal, financial, and administrative functions will accumulate.
2. In the exercise of his duties — at every choice point — power and dominance will prevail over others’ welfare. #DutyToInform
A thread of all the times Trump dishonored U.S. veterans and military service.

Before his colossal failures with COVID-19, Donny Trump used to brag about the economy & much of the media went along for the ride. However, was the economy really that good before the #TrumpDepression hit? Let’s look at the facts:

First, Trump’s own words condemn him on the pre-COVID economy here where he CUT the pay of federal workers citing serious economic conditions. If the economy was great, why the wage cuts?

Second, Donny promised to be a great JOBS president. However, his job numbers over his first 3 years in office trail Obama’s last 3 years. He also trails any 3 year period of Clinton & the last several years of Reagan & Carter He did do better than both Bushes.

By mid-Jan, Robert Kadlec, a USAF officer/physician who also works as asst sec for preparedness/response @ HHS, instructed staff to draw up contingency plans to enforce the Defense Production Act. Aides were torn whether to implement the act, & nothing happened for many weeks.
01/18: Trump gets briefed by health officials while spending the weekend at Mar-a-Lago. He took a call from HHS Sec. Azar, but before the health secretary could brief him, Trump cut him off & criticized Azar for his handling of an aborted fed ban on vaping products.

🔥BREAKING NEWS🔥Lawsuits against @FoxNews, @realDonaldTrump and Rupert Murdoch are going to become a tsunami soon. Their conspiracy theories are dangerous and made the #CoronavirusPandemic #1000xworse ‼️#FoxNewsClassAction seattletimes.com/seattle-news/w…
@realDonaldTrump agrees - we need to initiate a lawsuit agains Trump, Murdoch and @FoxNews‼️ #FoxNewsClassActionLawsuit #TrumpOwnsEveryDeath
The @FBI declared conspiracy theorists a threat to National Security. The @FBI made this declaration after @realDonaldTrump and @FoxNews radicalized Cesar Sayoc who mailed pipe bombs to Trump’s public “enemies list.” 🦠Latest conspiracy is the #CoronaHoax.
We don’t know who the designated survivor is, or if there is one, so that’s totally normal. #SOTU

Dear @SteveScalise @GOPLeader @SenBillCassidy @SenJohnKennedy : I know reading isn’t your strong suit, since it took you days to read a brief call memo. But you really need to read this story by a Republican lawyer based in DC. NO REALLY! theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
This particular Republican lawyer also has a rock solid source inside the White House. Maybe y’all should pay attention. 👀#TrumpLies
A former Trump lawyer: “He lies his a$$ off.” Isn’t capable of telling the truth. Not good for a POTUS, huh? #UnfitForOffice
Let's take a minute and look at #Trump through the eyes of the religious right and see if he measures up. Today, Proverbs 6:16-19 @TheDemocrats @TomPerez
It says:
It says:
@TheDemocrats @TomPerez There are 6 things the Lord hates, 7 that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies & a person who stirs up community conflict
@TheDemocrats @TomPerez 1) Haughty eyes: Eyes, according to Scripture, are the windows of the soul. It means that God truly despises those whose look communicates an arrogance and pride that shows that they have no respect for God and His ways - just an utter disdain of them. #MAGA - sound familiar?
Straight from the #MuellerReport. Required reading for all American voters. This is an #IllegitimatePresident They are destroying our republic and our democracy with the help of every republican in Congress (except Justin Amash). #VoteBlue2020 #DemSenate2020 /1
"Did I say I have a great memory or one of the best in the world?" Trump asked for clarification, to which he was told he'd said he had "one of the best in the world."

“And I can tell you, speaking for myself, I own nothing in Russia. I have no loans in Russia. I don't have any deals in Russia. President Putin called me up very nicely to congratulate me on the win of the election,” Trump said. 2/16/17

🤡Trump: No I didn't ask Barr to investigate Russia probe origins. I didn't know about it, no. But it's a great thing. I'm so proud of our Attorney General. Because the Russia thing was a hoax. Even Mueller said so. He said "no collusion" and he's not my friend.
🤔"I did not know about it, no."
Trump's formulaic denial about:
–Barr investigating Russia investigation origins
–Michael Cohen paying hush money before election
–Trump Tower Meeting w/ Russians offering election help
–Flynn talking sanctions w/ Kislyak

Today Trump absurdly denied asking Barr to investigate Russia probe origins. But Barr admitted as much to @KamalaHarris, as she grabbed him by the "grappling with the word 'suggest'" in Senate testimony.
Media, do your job please. Hold GOP feet to fire‼️

Word on the street (in DC) is that this is Trump's payback for Napolitano essentially calling for his impeachment on Fox News last Friday. It is said that Napolitano did no such thing.. #TrumpLies #SundayThoughts

2-Here's another lie, Trump claimed (& bragged) last night that 'we' are sending immigrants to Sanctuary cities now, but DHS has made no formal announcement related to sending migrants to sanctuary cities. #SundayMotivation thehill.com/homenews/admin…
3-Barr 'warning' Dem Cong that he 'might not' appear on Thurs, along w a # of bold faced lies Trump told last night, really makes it apparent that Trump & his admin are spinning out of control, that they can't take the impeachment heat. #SundayThoughts thehill.com/homenews/house…
