Wow, this 🔥 “Corporations that have paid to help him demolish the East Wing … Law firms that capitulated are now doing work for the Donald Trump Commerce Department… Bezos, who stood shoulder to shoulder with Donald Trump… No one has said anything about the character of this person today.”

Yes, Trump’s cruelty IS staggering.

"Trump Administration Finds Money For Troops, Says It's Too 'Difficult' To Pay Food Benefits" They also are able to find money to deploy thousands of ICE agents into Democratic cities.

People that support Trump think Pete Hegseth is a clown. Let that sink in for a minute. How bad do you have to be for MAGA to think you're incompetent?

www.huffpost.com/entry/white-... I wish this was the Onion I'm linking and not the HuffPo. Just fucking insanity in the WH now. They are dismissing veteran journalists with middle schoolyard insults. It's embarrassing.

Now you know

They could easily stop these boats, arrest these suspected drug runners. Instead they summarily execute them. No evidence, no trial, just death. And they are not committing a crime that is punishable by death in the US. This is a rogue administration. www.huffpost.com/entry/hegset...

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

All this time, NATO just had to buy Trump a private, luxury jumbo jet to get him on board... www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

This has been on my mind since January 20. Trump is not acting like a man who has ANY concern about ANY future election(s). And I think that means exactly what we think it means.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Three tariff announcements tonight, each one is dumber than the last. I don’t even know how to read this except as a way for the White House to exempt US pharma multinationals (who import a lot but are always building *something*) and push out smaller foreign competitors.

The Brits have such a way with words. You know. Those things with letter that help you define and say stuff about things.

Preach! A reporter brave enough to call it what it is. MSM, @cnn, @msnbc.com, @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy… take notes.

Election theft in broad daylight. 5 alarm fire🔥. We are over the cliff. 🇺🇸

Here’s a 🔥🔥exchange between me and Mick Mulvaney during @mehdirhasan.bsky.social's brilliant interview of Mulvaney on Al Jazeera's Head to Head. The whole episode is worth a watch, and you can find it on @aljazeera.com's YouTube channel.

How can anyone trust anything that emerges from the BLS when the person in charge of the agency will almost certainly have to come up with data to Trump’s liking? Answer: They cannot. Trump has destroyed the credibility of this extraordinarily important source of information.

I've been thinking about Starmer's response to Trump here since I saw the clip two days ago—the way he's just incapable of resisting him in any way.

uh…hunter biden for president?

"Trump is a rapist and a con man, and yet the entire Christian church seems to be treat him like he’s their poster child and it’s unreal. I don’t understand it," said Alan Ritchson in a front page interview for The Hollywood Reporter. Thank you Alan Ritchson.

"In each civilization some men run wild. If we're lucky, we control them early. If not . . . ." Hoo boy. I'm reading James Michener's 1963 novel Caravans. This scene, which takes place in 1946, is between a former Nazi and an American diplomat. The Nazi calls it. 🧵

When history marks the point where we lost the future to China, this will be it.

Lisa Murkowski after she voted for the bill: "I don't like it. I don't like what it does.".... WTAF Oh wait here it is, Lisa again: "I saw the way it was going (so I figured I'd be the first to cave and get what I could for myself)" Doll it up, but she fucked millions over for selfish goals.

I can't decide if it's some sort of psychopathy or just plain immaturity that makes a man sign his OWN social media posts. It's unpresidential at best.

. Vote them all out. .

If the president can ignore court orders and illegally circumvent, Congress, there is no Constitution. It’s gone. There’s no enumerated right that the president can’t take from you, no law Congress can pass that is binding, and no court that can protect you from any of it. It’s the whole ballgame.

100% Agree 👍🏽

ICE thugs don't like to be followed.

This 👇🏼

In itself it's not the biggest thing but Congress specifically passed a law requiring ICE to allow access to members of Congress because of Trump's antics in the first term. This isn't even norms. It's violating black letter statute law.

This is an important reminder: even the LAPD acknowledged yesterday that everything was peaceful. Then Trump brought the chaos. He is responsible.

How long until Elon admits to stealing top secret data on US intelligence agencies and threatens to release them unless Trump awards him $billions in new contracts?

The unfair thing about the TACO Trump meme is, chickens are much more affable and brave than Donald Trump. Almost as smart too. Just doesn't seem fair to drag them down to his level.

To put it bluntly but accurately

The man that pardoned hundreds of violent criminals in one day and claims that HE himself is above the law, ranted today about crime. A lie filled rant about judges that rule against his illegal acts "hating America" and releasing immigrant criminals onto the streets. Irony died long ago.

not to sound like a broken record but what the fuck is he even talking about here lol

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

In one post MAGA says tariffs aren't the cause of rising prices, but also Walmart should "EAT THE TARIFFS" to avoid raising prices for customers. MAGA base, are you there? Do you see this shit? It's directed at you. Also, tariffs are great right? So why does Trump have to keep defending them?
