@JoeBiden
bought this house in 1972 for $185,000 and sold it for $1,200,000 in 1996, which means Biden could be the only candidate in the race who has actually turned a profit on a real estate investment.
🚨🚨🚨Wow, outgoing CJS Chair Milley hits Trump at retirement ceremony: "We don't take an oath to a king, or queen, or a tyrant or a dictator. And we don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator ...we take an oath to the Constitution ... and we're willing to die to protect it".
JUST NOW: I asked
@KellyannePolls
, who’d just said
@realDonaldTrump
was not telling Omar/Tlaib/Pressley/AOC to go back to Somalia/Gaza/Puerto Rico/etc, which countries he was referring to.
She responded by asking me where my ancestors came from, thereby confirming what he meant
I don’t know why so many of my colleagues are reluctant to say in print or on the air what many of us saw in the room during today’s Iran speech.
@realDonaldTrump
appeared sedated.
He slurred his speech and had trouble pronouncing words.
He sniffed constantly.
Why?
UPDATE: The White House has not responded to my query on why there was an anesthesiologist at today’s press conference if
@realDonaldTrump
does not need and will not need any mechanical assistance with his breathing.
NEW: If I am reading this right, Judge Engoron has found that Donald Trump committed fraud and has ordered the cancellation of all of his New York business certificates and the dissolution of the Trump Organization.
Last year I signed legislation that gives our Veterans CHOICE, through private providers, and at urgent care facilities! Today we fully funded this $10 billion a year effort that gets our brave Veterans care quickly, and close to home.
The House should immediately subpoena the President’s phone records. He was calling people during the Capitol insurrection to try to continue to delay election certification. Who else did he try to call other than Sen. Tuberville? Rudy’s calls too.
Holy shit, this is ignorant snake oil drivel spewing forth from the President.
Azithromycin is an ANTIBIOTIC.
Antibiotics are NOT effective against VIRUSES.
He might as well tweet about colloidal silver.
HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE & AZITHROMYCIN, taken together, have a real chance to be one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine. The FDA has moved mountains - Thank You! Hopefully they will BOTH (H works better with A, International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents).....
Our great National Guard Troops who took care of the area around the White House could hardly believe how easy it was. “A walk in the park”, one said. The protesters, agitators, anarchists (ANTIFA), and others, were handled VERY easily by the Guard, D.C. Police, & S.S. GREAT JOB!
HE. IS. LYING.
The socialist-style payoff farmers will receive to compensate them for the impact of
@realDonaldTrump
’s tariffs comes from AMERICAN TAXPAYERS.
Our great Farmers will recieve another major round of “cash,” compliments of China Tariffs, prior to Thanksgiving. The smaller farms and farmers will be big beneficiaries. In the meantime, and as you may have noticed, China is starting to buy big again. Japan deal DONE. Enjoy!
This Pennsylvania "hearing" is nuts.
There's a witness who is complaining because envelopes (with addresses and signatures) are separated from ballots (which show how people voted).
That's the point of a secret ballot.
Let’s be clear about something: The mob assaulting Capitol Police officers and trying to break into the Capitol to stop Congress from functioning is doing so on
@realDonaldTrump
’s express orders today.
I wouldn’t put it past
@SpeakerPelosi
to stage a coup.
She has already weaponized impeachment, what’s to keep her from weaponizing the 25th amendment?
We need a new Speaker!

"Alex [Vindman] is a top 1 percent military officer and the best Army officer I have worked with in my 15 years of government service. He is brilliant, unflappable, and exercises excellent judgment." -- Dr. Fiona Hill, July 2019 evaluation of LTC Alexander Vindman
....was given a horrendous report by his superior, the man he reported to, who publicly stated that Vindman had problems with judgement, adhering to the chain of command and leaking information. In other words, “OUT”.
Since you asked, Mr. President:
H1N1 killed 12,469 Americans from April 2009-April 2010, a full 12 months.
COVID-19 has killed over six times as many Americans — 79,696 of them — in 1/4 of the time, February-May 2020.
Any questions?
We are getting great marks for the handling of the CoronaVirus pandemic, especially the very early BAN of people from China, the infectious source, entering the USA. Compare that to the Obama/Sleepy Joe disaster known as H1N1 Swine Flu. Poor marks, bad polls - didn’t have a clue!
Holy shit,

Pence turns tail and walks out of the briefing room AFTER 90 MINUTES without taking questions.
Reporters were screaming at him, and rightly so.
Pence is a coward.
In other news, it appears
@RudyGiuliani
committed perjury in his pro hac vice petition to appear in MDPA today.
He is suspended from the DC Bar for non payment of dues.
"You didn’t pay tax on the car or a company apartment...you didn’t pay tax, or education for your grandchildren — I, don’t even know what do you have to put? Does anybody know the answer to that stuff?"
Prosecutors call this an admission...
Ok, I’ll help.
1. You told your supporters to vote in person.
2. Democrats encouraged vote by mail.
3. GOP state legislatures kept election officials from processing mail ballots before Election Day, so they’re counted last.
4. More mail ballots are for Biden.
5. MATH.
Maybe I'm not understanding how the world works because I'm not a big time TV news person but rewarding the candidate who blew up a presidential debate with his own counterprogramming town hall on the same night feels like access-mongering sycophancy.
HAPPENING NOW: Sidney Powell, Lin Wood, and other "Kraken" lawyers are now in a Michigan virtual courtroom for a hearing on whether they should be sanctioned.
JUST IN: Trump’s lawyers have responded to the DOJ and it’s unclear whether they understand that acknowledging their client’s “possession of … Presidential records” is admitting that he did crimes
NOW: AG Garland throws down the gauntlet on voting rights: "Today I am announcing that within the next 30 days we will double the divisions enforcement for protecting the right to vote....
Pelosi and Schumer want Trillions of Dollars of BAILOUT money for Blue States that are doing badly, both economically and in terms of high crime, as a condition to making a deal on stimulus - But the USA is coming back strong!
NEW: I talked to some doctors about
@realDonaldTrump
's ramp troubles. One board-certified neurologist says the president's odd gait is...something that happens with people who have some sort of degenerative brain problem, usually in the frontal lobes."
Wow. At the Flight 93 memorial commemoration in Shanksville, PA, a visibly sedated
@realDonaldTrump
is bragging about the deaths of Qassem Soleimani and Abu Bakr al-Bagdhadi (neither of whom had anything to do with 9/11).
There are multiple photographs of pro-Trump rioters carrying law enforcement-style flex-cuffs.
Rioters went looking for

It raises the question of whether there was an organized plan to take hostages.
One last thing I can’t shake, had capable foreign actors been embedded with the terrorists, they could have killed half of Congress, held hostages for ransom/prisoner release and stolen countless hard drives etc. We were so damn vulnerable and so lucky it wasn’t even worse.
Newsmax anchor: What happened on SNL?

@PressSec
on Sen. Hawley's criticisms of Judge Jackson's sentencing record on child sex crimes: "I'm not sure that someone who refused to tell people whether or not he would vote for Roy Moore is an effective and credible messenger on this."
Ouch.
So I've been watching this Georgia legislatures "election integrity" hearing and my conclusion after 45 minutes or so is that we don't devote nearly enough resources to mental health in this country.
In fact, the Republicans DID do this.
The Benghazi select committee interviewed 103 witnesses.
Every witness not named
@HillaryClinton
testified behind closed doors.
Democrats are allowing no transparency at the Witch Hunt hearings. If Republicans ever did this they would be excoriated by the Fake News. Let the facts come out from the charade of people, most of whom I do not know, they are interviewing for 9 hours each, not selective leaks.
NOW:
@PressSec
opens her briefing by saying "Hello, everyone. The transition to greatness has officially begun" on the same day a recession is officially declared to exist.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders refuses to do the job for which she is paid money raised from US taxpayers. She delays each briefing so she can use a presidential event as an excuse to end it early. She does not respond to emails, she does not meet with (most) reporters. Why is she here?
Oh my god
@realDonaldTrump
is currently on the phone with service members bragging about the economy and suggesting they are deployed to fight for the economy.
FACT: O’Rourke has never claimed to be of Hispanic/Latino descent.
His use of the nickname “Beto” dates back to his childhood and originated with his parents, not him.
Beto (phony name to indicate Hispanic heritage) O’Rourke, who is embarrassed by my last visit to the Great State of Texas, where I trounced him, and is now even more embarrassed by polling at 1% in the Democrat Primary, should respect the victims & law enforcement - & be quiet!
The Trump administration is joining Russia in vetoing a UN Security Council resolution condemning
@realDonaldTrump
’s dictator friend Erdogan’s ethnic cleansing of the Kurds in Syria.
US and Russia against the other permanent members. Let that sink in.
JUST NOW: I asked
@GOPLeader
Kevin McCarthy if he still believed what he said in 2016 when he told
@HouseGOP
colleagues that
@realDonaldTrump
was one of two prominent Republicans (along w/
@DanaRohrabacher
) who "Putin pays."
He claimed that he was joking at the time (He wasn't).
Why is so much money sent to the Elijah Cummings district when it is considered the worst run and most dangerous anywhere in the United States. No human being would want to live there. Where is all this money going? How much is stolen? Investigate this corrupt mess immediately!

@LindseyGrahamSC
on Fox just now to Hannity: "Republicans win because of our ideas and we lose elections because [Democrats] cheat."
This is not something that is said by a person who actually wants to represent people in a democracy.
NEW: A new book claims President Biden's trust in the
@SecretService
is so frayed that he won't speak freely when agents are within earshot, and he thinks agents lied about the location of an alleged biting incident involving his ex-First Canine, Major.
Attention: If you're a White House, campaign, or WRNMMC employee who thinks there's something people need to know, feel free to contact me via email or DM me and ask for my Signal or ProtonMail account.
PROPAGANDA ALERT: The journalists traveling with
@realDonaldTrump
were not allowed to go into the hospital with him.
Any video of the event released by the White House will need to be viewed with extreme skepticism, as it will have been stage managed to make POTUS look good.
JUST NOW: After
@GOPLeader

@realDonaldTrump
(not true) I asked him if he was suggesting that Paul Manafort, who was tried/convicted in a US court, was framed. He was not happy.
FACT CHECKING: After

I can’t speak for anyone else, but his press staff ignores me on a near-daily basis, makes me ask permission to go to work each week, and often is just plain rude and unprofessional to me personally. I just got sick of being lied to to my face & figured I didn’t have much to lose
