I would kill or die for Larry

This is also literally why businessmen make terrible public service leaders. He's now openly bragging about his #corruption.

It all boils down to a typo. It was supposed to be called The Great American State Fail.

What did God unleash on Pharaoh after hail when he was angry? I just want to prepare.

This is a neat thread (and the replies) but I think I have to disagree. First, the number disparity isn't that large for most of the war, but also it is not clear to me that the CSA's strategic position demanded the destruction of the Army of the Potomac. What it required was a failure of US will.

"WE'RE GETTING DEPORTED" Australian fans mockingly chant while exiting an Arlington, Texas Walmart.

Washington has transferred an enormous amount of this country's wealth from hardworking people to the top 1%. Working Americans deserve leaders who will fight for them — not for their billionaire backers.

The odds that McConnell is dead and yet remains in office are high and bodes poorly for other historical events which have not yet transpired

If you really want to heal this nation let the kids keep their phones and impose screentime limits for billionaires

Well, shit www.dispatch.com/story/news/2...

I’d like to wish senior Trump officials a very happy 250th fuck off and mind your own business

“Fixing their car” = intentionally bypassing emission controls Meanwhile, Trump is currently prosecuting someone for touching a pool

this has got to be absolutely causing him to lose his fucking mind lmao

It will be like the end of WW2

DC is, flatly, owed statehood after what they have been through under this man to make sure this shit never happens again

I feel like we’ve been shouting about his corruption for 10 years! Are they really just now noticing?

Good idea. A felon reunion would exemplify the state of the union on its 250th birthday.

The equivalent of slowing down to see a car wreck

90s scientists: “We cloned a sheep! We landed a robot on mars!” Scientists today: “Please stop drinking bleach and urine smoothies.”

Louisiana AG Liz Murrill has been indicted on 16 felony counts. Of, course she has gotten a state court to issue a stay, & MAGA Governor Jeff Landry is screaming that he will pardon her. Both are the subjects of a recall. If you're in Louisiana,please sign the petition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Seems to me that enough of the American people don't care enough to do anything about it.

And New York is having power outages now.

Dnipro Osint reports satellite imagery shows damage to Russia’s 14th Main Communications Center of the General Staff near Beloomut in Moscow region. The analysis notes more than 4 hits, possibly 6, on key antennas and a building at the complex. #Russia

Delores is antifa now.

finally someone putting the socialism into national socialism

Trump only remembers mangled bits of history that he has been told by aides and sycophants. We need mass transportation to a new timeline.

Trump: "Almost anything my kids do -- if they buy a truck -- they have inside information"

THIS MUST BE STOPPED Trump wants a golf course where there are groves of cherry trees that were given to us by Japan These trees are the oldest of their kind in DC There is also a bike path there loved by thousands This is not Trump's backyard It must be stopped !!

Trump, who is still refusing to sign a bipartisan bill to lower housing costs, is flying off on a billion dollar plane given to him by a foreign nation and refurbished at our expense.

Trump's fair has been opened for 20 minutes today and there is still not a single soul there!

Mamdani: "Those who led through exclusion & isolation have tried to win power & enrich themselves by turning us against one another ... today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted, but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum"

The ban is heinous for what it does to transgender athletes. But if you think cisgender girls and young women won’t be caught up in the fallout, too, you are woefully ignorant

I don’t think you can call it “not so great” either. It’s just sad and pathetic, but they certainly accomplished a fitting metaphor for the current trainwreck.

“Does Israel have a right to exist?” Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social: “Nobody ever asks if Palestine has a right to exist. Israel exists. A better question is— does Israel have a right to our tax dollars?”

Believe it or not, Peru actually has a prison *specifically for* its presidents!

I was not famiar with what was going on www.npr.org/2026/07/02/g...

OH MY GOD GUYS okay so priests who want back in have to find a bishop willing to vouch for them, swear fealty to Vatican II and then HAND-WRITE THE POPE AN APOLOGY LETTER (I gues so he knows they didn’t use AI? 😂) and are on probation for 1-3 years this is ten times spicier than I even thought

If people are being pushed out because they’re labeled “deep state” instead of being judged on their actual performance, that’s a dangerous way to run any national security agency. Intelligence should be driven by evidence and expertise, not political loyalty.

So why do we treat Israel as such a close ally again? This is not how allies behave during negotiations. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/02/u...

Last year ICE said a man tried to murder a female ICE officer while she was trying to arrest him. They swore under oath he grabbed her by the neck and tried to choke her to death. He was even indicted for attempted murder. Problem is, it never happened! Bystander video unraveled the lie.

I’ve been thinking that’s a large part of the problem. Aside from turning it into a maga rally, that is. But you also saw no advertising. There is almost nothing to do when you get there They were too busy taking money to plan a fair.

The right-wing attack on birthright citizenship is not just about birthright citizenship itself. As MAGA’s reaction to the Supreme Court ruling proves, it is part of their opposition to a broader ideal, that “All men are created equal.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

New solutions to two interlinked mysteries reveal how and why the Antarctic’s enormous ice sheet formed.

Fox poll: Georgia registered voters Jon Ossoff (D) 56% Mike Collins (R) 43%

millions of fireworks will go off in the next 48 hours. the protest at the center of the Prairieland case last July 4th — a year ago tomorrow — was a noise demo setting off fireworks for the detainees inside the ICE facility. did you know the federal government categorized fireworks as explosives?

For all the people saying “prices go up if you tax corporations,” did your prices go up while their taxes went down? Did they use the infrastructure and utilities? Did their business rely on infrastructure around the country when Amazon paid 1.37% tax? www.rawstory.com/trump-267715...
