Sad thing is, I expect most Americans to not know about this.

94% of teachers have to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. 85% of teachers are working second jobs during the school year, often just to keep up with the cost of living. Meanwhile, the average Wall Street employee got a bonus of $246,900 in 2025. Something has gone terribly wrong.

So here we are again. POTUS threatening to destroy a country because he does not understand his actions. Project Freedom was an escalation tactic. Iran responded in kind. Now he is mad about that. This is infuriating to people that understand how this works. #IranWar #ProjectFreeDumb

If racism is no longer a problem, then why are all the states rushing to redistrict after the Supreme Court ruling all in The South? And all the people pushing to redistrict all White? 🤔🤔🤔

"Cinco de Mayo. . . reminds us that Texas remains a former Mexican province called Tejas, that braided histories of our state and Mexico, of Texans and Mexicans, cannot be undone," writes @tacotrail.bsky.social. Read more on the history of the holiday here:

Keep the margaritas & tacos away from the bigots today. Deadass. You ain't about to be enjoying the delights immigrants have brought you while hating them!

My thought on the moment is that he’s just a useful idiot being kept around, his information carefully curated, his health and cognitive decline managed by teams of professionals, in order to make obscene amounts of money for the world’s worst people, the human consequences be damned.

Those million in contributions to the Trump campaign in 2024 really paid off, didn't they?

Just wondering how much of this immigrant blood money ends up in Trump family pockets. 🤔 $5 million gift to an insurrectionist and a $1.8 million fine to a poor, hard-working immigrant. Yes, that's #TrumpsAmerica

Donald Trump is a bad person with bad intentions.

Buddy voted 95% of the time with Trump. Is that "your values," #Georgia? This person does not belong in the House and definitely not in the Senate. Vote him out. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks

Translation: Georgia is a Red state because we gerrymander the shit out of it.

Q: On the first day, the president told the Iranian people to take over their govt. Then he said, 'there will be no deal with Iran except unconditional surrender.' When did the president decide to capitulate on his demand? HEGSETH: The president hasn't capitulated on anything. He holds the cards.

Hegseth: "That's what this government does -- kills their own innocent civilians"

Hegseth: "Your question is based on a false premise that President Trump is being pulled in by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu…There's only one hand on the wheel ultimately directing this, whether it's Project Freedom or previously Operation Epic Fury, and it's President Trump."

Lots of care at this morning's Hegseth-Caine presser to emphasize that Project Freedom is distinct from Epic Fury, and that exchanges of fire yesterday remained low level. They sure don't want anyone bringing up the War Powers Resolution....

the first three questions Hegseth takes at this morning's press conference are from OAN, Real America's Voice, and the Daily Wire -- all right-wing propaganda outlets

Is Hegseth laying the groundwork to argue this is a totally different war so they can restart the countdown clock for the War Powers Act all over again?🤔

After gutting the Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman (created by Congress to protect people held in custody) last year by cutting its staff 90%, the Trump admin kills it completely at a time when ICE deaths have reached record levels. This is deliberate indifference.

Hegseth going full Heraclitus, “but can you really step in the same river twice?”

The most comical media event of the day is Hegseth and Caine struggling to explain how the firing of missiles on US warships in the Gulf does not mean war is going on. It's truly a topsy-turvy world. www.ft.com/content/2e48...

Hegseth is such a ridiculous person.

Hegseth: As I've said before, the world needs this waterway a lot more than we do. We expect the world to step up. At the appropriate time, and soon, we will hand responsibility back to you.

This is an excellent question.

Happy Cinco De Mayo,We Celebrate Every Year ! Congratulations! 🎊 👏🏻🎉🧨✨️🎯🏆

In 6 MONTHS we boot Donald Trump from power in the 2026 Midterm Elections!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Are you ready?

4 things you will never hear from Trump or any of his cabinet members: 1. We made a mistake. 2. We take full responsibility for it. 3. We apologize. 4. We will learn from it and do better.
