It's a good time to restate: Trump CANNOT and DOES NOT see beyond himself. He is NOT strategic - he is transactional. He is a walking talking "id." .He only pivots from self-interest, and cannot shut up or stop, even when it serves his interest. He is a dangerous malignant.

You know, I tweeted a lot about the debacle in the Senate with RFK Jr and I wasn't planning to tweet about it again today. But the awesome Lawrence O'Donnell @Lawrence just got me worked up, and he got me to thinking that there's something about this incident that irks me more.

Trump says he will sign an executive order tomorrow renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War, so I'm thinking he must be in those Epstein Files thousands of times, and it must be really really bad.

RT @jonathanstea: It’s wild living in the Information Age and the Dark Age at the same time.

In an autocratic movement, the people brazenly calling others full of shit are often the ones that are full of shit.

Rural Americans voted for Trump. Many will lose health insurance, food assistance, hospitals will close, and we all see the job numbers. They're also paying more for goods, as we all are, because tariffs ARE A TAX. Too few rural voters will translate their increasingly.

The disinformation landscape - the propaganda, the echo chambers, the gaslighting, and the social media algorithms - are killing so many American brain cells every single day.

The GOP has taken to boasting about tariff revenue, which - as we all know, is money taken FROM our importers, retailers, and mostly - from us. It's a powerful thing to have such an ignorant and ill-informed electorate that you can brag to them about taking their money.

Bernie Sanders is ripping RFK Jr. a new one.

This RFK Jr hearing is surreal. His double talk, geared to stymie logical argument, is not working. He looks like an old catcher's mitt and breathes like Darth Vader. He served Trump's purpose. Trump rewarded him. Now Cassidy and others need to serve America. It's public health.

RFK Jr is dangerous. He is going to cause unnecessary disease and death and, in fact, already has. In the event of a health emergency, he could prove catastrophic. What happened recently at the CDC is a testimony to the lack of confidence in him from America's best and brightest.

TRUMP SUPPORTERS: We know you're uncomfortable. Things don't add up. You're conflicted. What you feel is called COGNITIVE DISSONANCE. You voted for Trump because he was going to publicly uncover the truth about pedophilia among the elite. Bondi SAID she had the Epstein files.

TELL THE RIOTERS TO LEAVE!! .I meant to say RETURN THE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS!!.Oops. I meant RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!.

Another thing that probably played recently to his paranoia was the gathering in Beijing of all his favorite autocrat friends - who he thinks like him and respect him - but he worries have been making fun of him.

Trump's paranoia takes center stage now. Paranoia is an integral component of malignant narcissism. Trump trusts nobody fully. He's being sabotaged with the discharge petition. His lawyers are losing too many cases in court. Every poll is lying. All the numbers are wrong.

*** JUST IN *** A federal judge has ruled that Trump's freezing of Harvard's funds for research, was ILLEGAL. Thanks, Harvard, for NOT settling. (They were close.) . Per Marc Elias, Trump 2.0 has lost 130 cases.
