Can't make an omelet without killing a few innocent bystanders

The administration is sending a message by not condemning the murders. Not just for everyone in the US, but specifically for the ICE/BP because too many of them will hesitate to what they're asked to do if they don't have the appearance of being above the law

Nobel thought creating the prize would repair his legacy after inventing dynamite and creating weapons of war, but not getting the prize is going to be the cause of WW3. Thanks a lot, Nobel!

If even the pope can be killed by talking to jd vance, what chance do the rest of us nonpopes have?

We're all about to get a series of shocking revelations about what the US government does and how much people rely on it to live in relative comfort

Trump really doin this admin like he's building the Legion of Doom but with dumb weirdos, each one dumber than the last *I run back into the room out of breath 30 seconds later* Legion of Dumb

Are we collectively being pranked or something?

Note to rest of world from US: it's fine, just write us off at this point, we're cooked

Probably won't post much more often here than I did on twitter but I'm done adding anything to that dumpster fire

This new butterfly logo looks suspiciously x shaped

Happy 21st of September to those who celebrate!

Has anyone figured out what the deal is with airplane food by now

I, a politician, don't want to make this political issue political. Not because it makes my team look bad. If it made the other team look bad, then it would totally be political.

Just one of those days. One of those days when a former president poses for his mugshot

Back in civilization so I can finally make my first post here!
