It really says something when so-called journalists are less afraid of an active shooter than they are of the president.

Just reposting my own post for no particular reason.

This is the absolute correct framing of this entire debacle.

Hey Hegseth, those rules of engagement you call “stupid” are in place to protect AMERICAN SERVICE MEMBERS.

It's time to stop calling ICE and CBP "goons" and "thugs" and start calling them what they are: death squads.

Question: What’s the difference between these two executions? Answer: Nine additional bullets. 🤬

I can’t stop thinking about Alex Pretti’s parents. Finding out about their son’s death from a reporter who called them for comment. Scrutinizing the murder video to see if they recognized him. Having to identify his body. Hearing him defamed by the government. How will they ever survive this?

NYT finally not mincing words.

Oh my god.

Been seeing a lot of posts calling 1/6/21 the most shameful day in American history. They're wrong. The most shameful day in American history was 11/5/24, when 77 million voters looked at the evidence, shrugged, and re-elected Donald Trump. And another 70 million+ couldn't be bothered to stop them.

Sheee-it. This is a loss. apnews.com/article/isia...  Isiah Whitlock Jr., actor from 'The Wire,' 'Veep' and Spike Lee films, dies at 71

Why does it always seem like our most beloved celebrities die at the end of any given year?

“Do it the right way,” they said. And yet here we are. I hate these people.

Now he needs to spend the rest of his life atoning for the actions that put Trump in office in the first place.

I always knew Katy Tur was a hack, but she literally just said on her show that the Epstein allegations are “gross” because “It’s not like he had a daughter and these were just friends of hers who were coming around.” Is she auditioning for Megan Kelly’s job?

I feel bad for the White House ketchup bottles right now.

Can we normalize not using the word “skeet” to describe posts here? It sounds dumb.

I’ll help. They’ve already ruined the em dash; if they come from my Oxford commas I will rain hellfire down upon them the likes of which the world has never seen.

This White House is the real-world embodiment of Randall Flagg's Las Vegas in "The Stand." It attracts the worst possible people and encourages them to do the worst possible things in the name of the worst possible leader this nation has ever seen.

I love this for Republicans. They’ve been out there all week defending this shutdown at his behest, and, because he wants to look like the hero, he just cut them off at the knees.

Ken Dilanian has learned absolutely nothing since he so badly bungled the initial release of the Mueller report. Still credulously accepting law enforcement spin with absolutely no pushback.

Who is this hack on MSNBC who just claimed, with zero evidence, that it was ICE agents being targeted in the shooting? Investigation? And then decried a “rush to judgment.”?

Important reminder. I'm seeing posts claiming the shooter is in custody, which have already been debunked.

I agree with all of this.

Amplifying this for visibility. I haven’t been able to get my appointment yet because my area does not yet have the vaccines in stock, but my experience was similar. And that list of qualifying conditions covers pretty much everyone.

This headline from NYT is a disgrace. By no stretch of anyone’s imagination can this be “in good fun” or “in dispute.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...

I’m thinking that if the FBI redacted Trump’s name from the Epstein files and he is *still* scrambling to cover them up, he must be in there so many times in so many identifiable ways that they couldn’t release them even if every word is blackened out.

Culprit identified.

If the Clintons and other prominent Democrats were in the Epstein files, why wouldn’t Trump have released that info back in 2019-2020 when he still controlled the justice department? Especially post election, when he was scrambling for anything to help him hold onto power?

Public Service Announcement: Stop blaming Democrats for shit Republicans do

Can we nip this "Alligator Alcatraz" shit in the bud? We don't need to adopt their cutesy marketing when talking about the concentration camp in the Florida Everglades

Kamala Harris would not have bombed Iran

This is perfect.

No kings on Cape Cod!

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

If you hate Pope Leo XIV because he is too “liberal”, I have some very bad news for you about Jesus.

Promise made, promise kept...I guess.

Make sure to vote. Otherwise, the people who appear in NY Times focus groups of swing voters get to determine our elections.

People need to stop talking about the "deportation" of US citizens like it's a legal thing. Expelling US citizens and calling it "deportation" implies there's some legitimate legal process for doing so. There isn't. What they're doing is blatantly illegal. Get the nomenclature right, people.

Why aren’t Dems out there right now running ads juxtaposing Trump’s false claims about tariffs (“other countries pay”) with the reality of what’s happening?

Re-upping this for no particular reason.

At some point, are any of these wise financial folks going to simply acknowledge the obvious - that Trump is doing all this *just because he can* and he's actually enjoying the feeling of power he gets when he causes the entire global market to crash?

Remember when Republicans pretended they cared that you were paying $1 more for eggs before enabling Trump to destroy the entire economy, gut your 401K, and send the price of literally everything higher?

Your periodic reminder that Howard Lutnick is a selfish, evil human being who went on TV after 9/11 sobbing about all his lost employees as he bankrupted their families.

Did you know? 18 U.S.C. § 793(f) makes it a federal crime for people entrusted with information related to the national defense to — with gross negligence — disclose it to others in violation of that trust.

I don’t know who needs to hear this (coughNYTcough), but we shouldn’t be talking about tariffs “on China,” or “on Canada.” They’re not put on a country; they’re put on imports *from* a country. Big difference.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

@warren.senate.gov @edmarkey.bsky.social , I am a constituent who voted for, donated to, and supported you. Please step forward now and apologize for voting to confirm Rubio as Secretary of State. He has betrayed our allies and disgraced our nation. Don’t be complicit.
