Unbelievable.

46 House Republicans voted to defund NATO two days before the 80th anniversary of D-Day

@GottaLaff Fuck me, but Republicans are incredibly stupid, incredible tools, agents of a hostile foreign government, or some combination of the above.

Why are multimillionaires and billionaires like Peter Thiel, Rupert Murdoch, Travis Kalanick, Steven Mnuchin, and others are rallying behind Trump?

Yes, the tax cuts. But there's more.

The more Trump tears down democracy, the safer the oligarchy becomes.

@rbreich There's more to it than that. Thiel has said that freedom (as he understands it) is incompatible with democracy.

8 senators announced Fri they would boycott priorities & nominations as payback for ’s .
In a joint statement, the senators said they would not “allow any increase to non-security related funding for this administration, or any appropriations bill which funds partisan lawfare.”

@Nonilex So the Republicans will once again be keeping the government's business from being done. Go ahead, jackasses, because that's SO popular with voters.

The verdict may not matter to Trump's base, but I do think there is a group of people it matters to who are being overlooked: the people who were already likely to vote for Biden.

A Trump acquittal would have sapped trust in legal systems and government further. It would fueled apathy. Hopelessness and apathy can reelect Trump.

@futurebird I think there's definitely something to that. I lost track of how many social media posts I saw last night that were variations on the theme of, "Holy shit, the system worked!"

#TrumpTrial Thurs 30 May 2024 🧵#Deliberations continue

Justice #Merchan says he believes that the #jury wants him to repeat a significant portion of the #JuryInstructions.

He will read pages 6-35.

Each page yesterday took him just a little more than a minute, so this will take >30 mins.

Between that & the testimony readbacks, also expected to take >30 mins, there will likely be >1 hour this morning w/the jury in the courtroom, not actively deliberating.

@Nonilex Same. This verdict says so much good about our justice system that I was afraid might not be said.

@GottaLaff Same. I almost wish I were still on Twitter because I'm sure Legal Twitter is going nuts hilariously, but only almost. What a relief. @CharJTF @Nonilex
