Trump has no idea how he's being manipulated. Putin is laughing, as he continues to pound civilian centers in Ukraine, a country he invaded, while "the peacemaker" and aspiring Nobel Prize winner sits on his hands and coos about their warm friendship!.
Trump: “I maintained a very good relationship with Putin. You saw that when he got off his plane, I got off my plane, there's a warmth there that you can’t—There's a decent feeling”.

.@JDVance reacted to the latest, horrific school shooting in typical fashion, blaming it entirely on the mental health crisis, not the uniquely easy access in the U.S. to deadly weapons. Meanwhile, the admin has revoked billions in mental health grants.

Somehow @realDonaldTrump has gone from being the president who helped make life-saving COVID vaccines available to all Americans to the president who is telling large number of Americans they can't have them.

This is the crux of the problem. He reallly BELIEVES he has limitless powers. And the Congress is dangerously abetting this delusion.
Trump: “I have the right to do anything I want to do. I’m the president of the United States. If I think our country is in danger, and it is in danger in these cities, I can do it.”

The @chicagosky tonight honored the great @Candace_Parker--the pride of Naperville, who brought a championship home to Chicago--by hoisting her # 3 to the rafters at the Wintrust Arena. Her speech was one of the finest & most moving I've ever heard at one of these events.

"Abe Lincoln, whose top hat and rifles are in the Smithsonian, urged Americans to move past the Civil War “with malice toward none, with charity for all.” Trump has malice for all, charity toward none."
