The man on the end of the marionette’s strings only THINKS he is in control and making the decisions. Also, what else has Trump given Vlad that he has kept secret? There are those classified documents…

Photo illustration of Vladimir Putin as marionette puppeteer with Donald Trump as his puppet. Vladimir says "Don't tell anyone you gave me these COVID tsting kits. They'll be mad at you, not me. It will be our secret." and Puppet Donald Trump says, "I don't care. Fine. I won't tell anyone (I am so glad Vlad likes me!)" with tiny "me me me me me" text surrounding that inner parenthetical thought

Well, the Covid test kits he sent to Russia was some kind of health care, no?

Happy 7th anniversary to that time Donald Trump gave health care access to many people with the stroke of his pen. Remember that? What a day that was!

Since Congress can't get its act together on HealthCare, I will be using the power of the pen to give great HealthCare to many people

New episode! When Sigrid Schultz took a reporter job in 1919 Berlin, she had no idea she would become one of the first to raise the alarm about a new political party called Nazi. The Germans called her THE DRAGON FROM CHICAGO, and she earned every bit of it. Come listen w/ @pdtoler.bsky.social!

Did you know Sigrid Schultz reported the first direct telephone call between Berlin and Chicago? Her voice traveled across the Atlantic for the front page of the Chicago Tribune in 1928. It’s just one of many fascinating stories from her reporting days in Berlin. 🗃️ Want more? Link in first comment.

It's 10œœ before the first mention of turnout (and that's in passing). Virtually all the rest is about advertising. Finally in œœ14&15, we get to what should be the crux of the story: Turnout, and Trump and Lara's decision to defund it, instead hoping to discredit democracy.

Some Republicans close to Trump worry that if the polling remains tight, the structural gap could sway the outcome in the final weeks, where turnout disparities could prove decisive. These advisers have urged the campaign to spend more on get-out-the-vote efforts. Trump has told his strategists to focus not just on canvassing efforts but on a 175,000-volunteer “election integrity” monitoring program that does not directly drive voters to the polls. He also wants to have money for election challenges and lawsuits, these people said.

Lara Trump, the president’s daughter-in-law and co-chair at the Republican National Committee, has raised concerns that Trump’s campaign needs to be spending more on digital advertisements, according to people who have spoken with her. Trump himself is holding a series of fundraisers in the final month of the race, trying to raise more for his campaign.

It’s a good thing this isn’t Joe Biden or the papers might notice it

'I am firmly of the opinion that 2020 was several years ago, and I think that's all we need to say,' say the people who still rage about the mythical burning down of all cities in the summer of 2020.
