If we're going to canonize people who were senselessly murdered, let's include the 11 Venezuelans who were murdered by the US.

If Roberts was on the Epstein list, would his rulings be any different? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

"Epstein is a hoax!" "Trump was an FBI informant!" "The client list is made up!" "There is no client list!" - Trump is Schroedinger's Pedophile.

Moving Space Command from Colorado to Alabama may not seem like a big deal, but there is evil symbolism. NORAD was always based in Colorado while NASA has had a huge facility in Huntsville. Putting a branch of the military In Huntsville is another step toward militarizing a civilian agency.

Trump probably heard that a group of Latino youth was coming to the US with a plan to steal bases. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

I just checked and the forecast for tomorrow is partly cloudy with a 100% chance that Trump is on the Epstein list.

I can't say for certain what will happen to Trump when he dies, but perhaps what he deserves would be for God to give him a conscience and let him live with that for eternity

Alligator Alcatraz needs to be repurposed in the future to hold the Trump Administration members and ICE agents responsible for wholesale civil rights violations.

I remember when MAGAs were insulted by the term "deplorable". Now "deplorable" is something they actively aspire to achieve (with considerable success).

In 1911, the Triangle Factory Fire killed 146 garment workers. There hasn't been a second because the GOVERNMENT enacted regulations to ensure there wouldn't be another. I'm not ready to blame Trump for what happened. But I sure will blame the govt if it doesn't act to prevent another such tragedy.

Republican: someone who doesn't believe that humans can collectively release greenhouse gases that affect climate, but believes that an individual flying a crop duster can control the weather.

Texas says they didn't evacuate because the NWS didn't forecast the amount of rain they actually received. Thanks to Trump, more than half of NWS offices are understaffed by 20%+. Do we know understaffing caused this miss? No. But understaffing will cause more misses, and bad forecasts costs lives.

While some people mark the birthdays of those who've died, I don't. Therefore I'm not celebrating anything today. The USA is dead. It has no compassion for the poor, the immigrant, the outcast. Therefore it has no soul. It is a lifeless body being kept "alive" through money and military might.

The only difference between Squid Game and the "big beautiful bill" is that in Squid Game the people have a chance to win.

Dear Congressional Republicans: you're literally murdering people to keep your jobs. And most of you are millionaires who don't need jobs.

When an idea is directionally sound but it is dismissed as "impractical", the problem is with the status quo that makes the idea impractical, not the idea. In such a circumstance, work to change the status quo, not the idea.

I find it ironic that Boomers protested in the '60s with the slogan "don't trust anyone over 30" and now are incredibly reluctant to hand the reins of power over to younger generations, whether we are talking about politics, the church, or corporate life.

Historically, one of the greatest predictors of the impending fall of a govt/society is the extreme concentration of wealth. That's the real danger signal for the US.

Win or lose, Mamdani's surprising showing in the NYC primary is a wakeup call to the Democratic establishment that their ways are dead. They better adopt a stridently populist economic stance. And just as Trump outperformed his polling, corporate media underestimates the power of populist movements.

Violence is always the result of failure at peacemaking. Even the "necessary" violence of defeating Hitler was actually the result of the onerous Treaty of Versailles that made Hitler possible. Had the Allies been gracious, Hitler never happens. The US created the menace of Iran with the 1953 coup.

Will Iran retaliate with a terrorist attack? That would be exactly what Trump WANTS so that he can justify an authoritarian crackdown. And Iran just might relish the thought of retaliating *and* hastening the end of American democracy.

The way the troops carried themselves in the parade yesterday means that it was either the product of a complete breakdown in discipline or open rebellion against having to participate. There are no other explanations and both of these are bad.

The green cards for sale are now officially being called Trump Cards. It's so embarrassing.

Trump wants Kent State 2.0. But how'd that work out?

The Trump-Musk relationship appears to have undergone rapid, unscheduled disassembly. 😁

One has an ego the size of the Titanic and the other is as stubborn as an iceberg. The result is predictable.

Trump spent the week pardoning criminals and deporting the innocent.

Trump says the new steel and aluminum tariffs will take effect on Wednesday, June 4. What are the odds that means June 3 will be TACO Tuesday? www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

I'm so hungry I think I could eat 8647 tacos.

Somehow, people who believe Trump is 6'4", 224 lbs also believe Biden's medical team lied about his cancer.

Trump caved. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is the official White House Twitter. Not only is mental illness at work here, they also don't seem to know which side carries red lightsabers.

Renaming Veterans Day so it no longer honors all veterans makes less sense than renaming the Gulf of Mexico.

Christianity was built on progressive values for its time. It spread worldwide on the basis of progressive values. Progressive values are Jesus' values. If they move backwards from Pope Francis they do so at their peril. www.cnn.com/2025/05/02/e...

Japanese netizens are shocked by a tweet from the US Embassy declaring that Japanese people applying for non-immigrant visas must provide information on all social media accounts they have used in the last 5 years [or their visas could be rejected]. Some are comparing it to China & North Korea.

Other than Trump's, what funerals does one "look forward to" attending?

One of El Salvador's major exports is textiles, including underwear sold by Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, and Gildan t-shirts. Check the labels. Stop buying anything made in El Salvador.

People around the world have imposed their own "retaliatory social tariff" on the U.S. by reducing their purchases of U.S.-made goods. And Trump can't do anything about it.

My Duolingo Spanish will really come in handy when Trump's Stormtroopers snatch me off the street and ship me to El Salvador.

The impact of Trump is that I am now surprised whenever I see a display of decency or integrity by anyone in America

Now that Trump has been humiliated on the world stage in terms of tariffs, I wonder what insanity he's going to unleash this week in order to change the narrative.

Now MAGAts are saying things like "Apple should make the iPhone here." Except they can't. But even if Trump could deglobalize US manufacturing, it can't be done efficiently. But the rest of the world, trading around us, will be efficient and ultimately prosper as we become poorer.

Ever play poker against someone who invariably folds if you represent strength by betting large? Such a player is called an easy mark. That's how Trump is playing tariffs. Trump bets, the world raises, Trump folds.

Can't wait to see how Karoline Leavitt blames the tariff reversal on Biden.

Every nation now knows that Trump doesn't have the guts to see it through on tariffs. What's he going to say in 90 days - "this time I really, really, really mean it?"
