Your dad's 2019 budget cut spending for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration by $665 million, and slashed funding for the National Institute of Mental Health by 30% — a half a billion dollar decrease. Nice words, though.

I keep hearing people say the recent flood of sexual assault allegations has men "looking over their shoulder" and wondering if they're next. There's a really easy way to answer that question: Have you ever sexually harassed or assaulted a woman? No? Good. Yes? You're next.

I want to engage this question earnestly, b/c it’s a legit question. The answer is yes, I do look at left, too. Left-wing activists are responsible for 2% of murders committed by political extremists in the US over the past decade; right-wing activists are responsible for 74%.

So based on what we’ve learned, Trump notified Russia in advance of the Baghdadi operation but didn’t notify the Speaker of the House or the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.

It’s been 20+ months since I had a very “mild” case of COVID and I still have nerve damage and haven’t regained my sense of smell or taste. I’m 36 years-old and otherwise healthy. (Something to keep in mind when you hear about Omicron being a “milder” variant).

Apparently Chris Matthews didn’t tell anyone he was about to resign on-air? He didn’t even finish the rest of @hardball — he just said he was resigning, it cut to commercial, and then Steve Kornacki was sitting there in front of the camera stunned when commercials ended.

When Trump fired Comey, Sarah Sanders said FBI agents were "thankful" for Trump's decision. Over 100 pages of internal emails show that not only were they not thankful — they were devastated.

Holy hell. Trump just told the crowd at his Wisconsin rally that after women give birth, the baby is "wrapped in a blanket" and then "the mother and the doctor decide whether to execute the baby."

A lot of people still express skepticism about whether Russia’s 2016 disinformation campaign could have actually changed voter behavior, and I would just like you to look at our pathetically low vaccination rate if you still don’t think disinformation can affect behavior.

Just a reminder that issuing a pardon or commuting a sentence in exchange for a witness refusing to testify about your own criminal behavior is in itself an act of obstruction that would need to be investigated by Congress & could lead to new charges (esp. if Trump loses in Nov).

NEW: Per @CNN , special counsel Mueller's team plans to present evidence in court that there is a link between Paul Manafort's bank fraud case and the investigation into the Trump campaign.

An important takeaway from the Carter Page FISA documents released today: They prove without a shadow of a doubt that @DevinNunes lied about the FISA warrant to try to discredit the Russia probe. And they also prove that @RepAdamSchiff told the truth. 1/

It's interesting that the MAGA crowd hasn't said a word about the fact that Kim Jong Un kills entire families and forces women to have abortions "to wipe out the seed of Christian reactionaries." Almost like they only care about that when it's convenient... #TrumpKimSummit
