I’m going to start putting together a thread of @GOP officials using their elected office to attack their own country during a crisis. Let’s start with the abomination that is @RepStefanik.

“You can’t start and project weakness like this on the world stage, which this administration seems to do every day.”

Last tweet: “There was no planning along the way…there was very little uniting of allies. And, frankly, a lot of wishful thinking that [Biden] was going to be able to negotiate to cease Putin’s buildup…and Putin called Biden’s bluff.” ImageImageImageImage

[No statement on Ukraine, but Pinned is a litany of treasonous lies calling Mueller’s investigation a “legalized coup” & the rest are attacks on Biden. Mueller established that Russia *attacked* our 2016 election to *help* Trump] ImageImageImageImage

First tweet: “While the President attempted to portray optimism, the challenges of the present time require an IMMEDIATE SHIFT in focus away from far-left policies that weaken America’s economy, national security and foreign policy.” (no) ImageImageImage

Everyone needs to understand what Donald Trump is planning.

If he allows SNAP benefits to expire for over 41 million Americans on November 1st during his shutdown, it won’t be by accident.

It’ll be by design.

Here’s how I think this goes — and how we can stop it [THREAD🧵] Image
Trump’s shutdown isn’t about budgets. It’s about CONTROL.

He INSTRUCTED @SpeakerJohnson to keep the government closed — and Johnson obeyed his master.

Everything that happens next flows from that fact.
@SpeakerJohnson On November 1st, just 6 days from now, SNAP benefits — food assistance for 41.2 million people — will STOP.

That’s more than 1 in 10 Americans suddenly unable to feed their families.

And Trump is refusing to release $6 billion in reserve funds that could cover it.

This might be the single most dangerous story of Trump’s regime.

He’s already taken over Congress, the DOJ, the FBI, SCOTUS, and every federal agency.

Now his allies are privately funding the U.S. military.

If he captures them too, America as we know it ENDS. [THREAD🧵]
The Pentagon just confirmed that it accepted $130 million from “an anonymous Trump ally” to pay U.S. troops during the shutdown.

That’s not just unethical; it’s a NATIONAL SECURITY CRISIS.

Here’s why this crosses every legal and moral line imaginable…
First: CONGRESS — not private donors AKA nefarious Trump-allied billionaires — controls the power of the purse.

That’s the Constitution.

When an anonymous donor pays our military, it undermines congressional authority and normalizes oligarchic control over government itself.

Truman rebuilt the interior after it literally fell apart

FDR expanded the West Wing to improve workspace

Kennedy restored historic art & furniture

Obama made the building more energy efficient

None of them BULLDOZED AN ENTIRE WING to build themselves a $200 million ballroom
Trump isn’t just knocking down walls — he’s defacing our history. The White House IS NOT HIS to redecorate/destroy. It belongs to the American people. Every inch of it represents democracy, continuity, and the sacrifices made to preserve it.
Bulldozing part of the East Wing to build a personal $200 million ballroom is a grotesque display of ego and ownership. Presidents are temporary stewards of that building — not kings building a palace to immortalize and glorify themselves.

SIMPLE FACTS:

1. Your party controls all three branches of government. Democrats could not shut it down, nor can they reopen it.

2. Trump admitted he WANTED this shutdown.

3. HE TOLD YOU AND THE REST OF THE @GOP TO DO IT AND YOU OBEYED HIM LIKE THE SPINELESS TRAITORS YOU ARE.
Here’s what happened:

1. House Republicans pushed through an extremist reconciliation bill that has poison-pill provisions — including one that lets ACA subsidies expire at year’s end, yanking affordable health coverage from ~15 million people and hiking costs for millions more
2. The bill also included deep cuts to programs that tens of millions of Americans rely on to LIVE like SNAP, Medicaid, and renewable-energy investments — all designed to appease the MAGA hardliners and Freedom Caucus (even though MAGA actually gets screwed the *most* by these).

MAGA is incensed that their false prophet didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. Yes, actually. Trump even being *floated* for the prize is not a compliment. It’s a SICK MORAL JOKE — political malpractice dressed up as a medal that would have ended the award’s prestige (THREAD) 🧵
The man they want to celebrate spent YEARS cozying up to autocrats, praising strongmen, and kowtowing to dictators who crush dissent. That is the LITERAL OPPOSITE of peacebuilding.
He weaponized lies to justify cruelty at home — FAMILY SEPARATION, CHILDREN IN CAGES, PEOPLE SHIPPED OFF TO FOREIGN TORTURE PRISONS WITHOUT EVEN A TRIAL, the list goes on — and then pretended that cruelty was “strength.” That’s not leadership. It’s CRUELTY-AS-BRAND.

Why is @JDVance always whining that people don’t “show enough gratitude”? Let’s break down the psychology behind his fixation — because it says way more about him than anyone else. (Thread)🧵
First off, “gratitude” is Vance-speak for subservience. For submission. He doesn’t mean “you need to show more thanks.” He means: you need to sit down, shut up, and be deferential to people like ME. It’s about HIERARCHY, not humility.
Vance constantly projects his own insecurities. He clawed his way from poverty to Yale to MAGA darling by performing gratitude for elites like Peter Thiel. Now he expects everyone else to play the same role — or be condemned as “ungrateful.”
