Mamdani has proposed a balanced budget for next year, holding spending level while closing a $12 billion deficit. Trump's budget proposal increases the deficit year over year by about $300b, with a massive deficit next year of more than $2 trillion. Fiscal responsibility? Mamdani > Trump.

“In God We Trust” wasn’t adopted as the national motto until 1956, during the Cold War. It was a departure from our secular founding principles and a Constitution that contains no reference to God. And no, “we” do not all trust in God. Federal buildings belong to all Americans.

I’m sorry but “everyone is going to use AI to code their own apps” sounds like “everyone is going to learn HTML and code their own websites.“ like … have you met people? no they’re not

If only someone had 50+ years in Congress to figure this out... Oh wait 🤔

It’s 2026, in Oklahoma has finally made child marriage illegal. Congratulations? Also WTF.

Only two batters (Judge, Schwarber) have more MLB home runs than Shohei Ohtani since Shohei's MLB debut. Only one pitcher (deGrom) has a lower ERA (500+ innings) than Shohei Ohtani since Shohei's MLB debut.

Is this good?

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.

Breaking news: Batteries

"this would be really bad and so, ipso facto, it can't happen" is the assumption underlying the entire Trump era and it's sort of bleakly funny to see people clinging to it even as the train is jumping the tracks

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha (Analysts at JP Morgan get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to write this bullshit.)

Josh here from Cards Against Humanity. We teamed up with @theoatmeal.bsky.social, @shing.bsky.social, @boxbrown.bsky.social, and @effies.bsky.social to create vinyl urinal stickers so you and your neighbors can pee on the cartoon faces of asshole ICE agents. Get yours free at PeeToMeltICE.com

If we actually want to appreciate moms, we should be providing free childcare, healthcare, and guaranteed income for stay-at-home parents to put more money in families’ pockets and ensure no SAHP is reliant on a partner for their economic security. Idk I think that’s better than 15% off a vacuum.

It’s telling that Alabama took 14 years to implement Brown (you MUST desegregate) and < 14 days to implement Callais (you CAN eliminate Black districts if you call them Democratic, but you don’t HAVE to).

My entire lifetime has seen Republicans benefit from every structural bias in the system: two republican presidents elected while losing the popular vote,the senate being biased towards small rural conservative states,house and state legislatures being heavily gerrymandered, and a captured SCOTUS.

The most hilarious part of this is that the recall only affects 173 total vehicles, because that's all Tesla's sold of its rear wheel drive model.

This headline is somehow not from @theonion.com. www.kbb.com/car-news/tes...

Ok so the thing with Disney princess actors walking around the park is the princesses are cartoons so any lady in the right costume could be Belle but the Star Wars characters are tied really tightly to the actors so this just looks like the scene in Spaceballs when they capture the stunt doubles

The Cubs have won 18 of their last 21 games. Since 1901, they've only accomplished that in 10 different seasons, 8 of which included trips to the World Series, including the championship seasons in 1907 and 2016. Note: the 1908 team peaked at 17-4 over a 21-game stretch.

This has to be the funniest question AND response I've ever seen in a poll. Less than half of Republican men think they could beat Trump in a fight. What a bunch of pathetic losers.

So hear me out, what if the Cubs winning a World Series AGAIN fixes whatever they messed up in the timeline in 2016?

if ai ever works as it’s been sold to us, the most easily replaced employee of every company would be ceo and as far as i can tell theres never been a single article written about that

Tonight JD Vance attacked me…or tried. Meanwhile I’m showing up for the people of this district. #iowa #congress #IA03 #saymyname #womeninpolitics

Never met Tony Peters, don’t know who he is, but a million years ago on Facebook he posted this and I don’t think anyone’s ever put it better.

It's so funny because there genuinely are places they could say where you have to show an ID that could make their argument stronger, and yet they can't help but say places where you specifically do not have to do that where they sound like Martians.

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

Uno is a game where having all the cards means you lost the game

I think it's time for a new leader of the Senate Democrats. My primary opponent supports Chuck Schumer, and as a result, he's receiving millions of dollars in Super PAC funding. That's the choice in this election: change vs the status quo.

Now do stocks.

This is actually the perfect distillation of the right wing worldview. A predatory industry treats consumers unfairly so it must be immigrants' fault.

Reagan actually got shot at the same hotel and never asked for a ballroom

It’s eight people. Eight men whose personal net worth tallies more than $1 trillion. Median US resident net worth is less than $125,000.

📌Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during this two terms. I bet you don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.

It would be really nice if the people running the goddamned country understood sixth grade mathematics.

🚨BREAKING🚨 The dumbest people you know have threatened to stop trying to influence policy unless you agree to be nice.

At 33 points, Trump’s approval rating is official lower than his felony count.

Ah! That explains why @cubshighlights.bsky.social was struggling this evening.

Look, it creates jobs, helps farmers, raises revenue, & keeps money from leaving the state. Seems like a no-brainer to me. https://littlevillagemag.com/rob-sand-releases-cannabis-agenda-420/

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading. It was worth it.

Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.  Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.

Doing this video with a painting of Washington in the background is a level of irony that even he’d probably cross the Delaware again just to get away from

Happy April 20!

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

We live in a country where the two most dynamic, charismatic, eloquent politicians of this century have the first names Barack and Zohran. This is what bothers the white supremacists so much.

i’m such a stupid fucking mark for trying to “work” and “follow the law”

I maintain that among the media's biggest mistakes has been continuing to ask Trump questions as if he's a normal guy instead of asking things like "Can you explain who Jesus is" or "Describe the process of pumping gas"

Call it a VIP club charge and they’ll line up to pay it.
