He is begging like a dog, one might say. This war and Trump’s alienation of our allies may go down as among the greatest foreign policy failures of any presidency in history.

They’re right about one thing. These gas prices are painful. What they’re bullshitting about is the “short-term pain” spin they keep repeating on every cable hit because it’s scripted. Same talking points, same smug delivery, all unburdened by the truth.

If you think he cares about gas prices, housing costs, home electricity costs, inflation, no jobs, troops getting killed, grocery prices, health care costs, or anything else that would improve the lives of most Americans, you are wrong.

He voted for Kristi Noem to give her a chance. How did that work out?

Trump and Hegseth appear to be turning the entire Pentagon budget, the largest of any agency of the US Government, into one big grifting pond for private profit and advancement. They can do this in part because congressional oversight is, to all intents and purposes, simply dead.

Pulte - son of Pulte Homes who artificially controls and limits home builds runs the housing department. Still can’t believe how f***ing upside down & corrupt this regime’s team of scum truly is.

Bill Pulte is a fucking liar.

He feels it, anyway.

Trump is posting this stuff from the plane en route to a weekend getaway at his private club btw

JFC. Impeach and remove this lawless man, you fools.

Turns out DOJ dropped the effort to search Epstein’s ranch in New Mexico in 2019. Who was President in 2019?

Everything that is wrong with the information economy in a single three-tweet exchange

"Moderate Democrats" Aren't Moderate Anymore According to recent polls, "moderate" Democratic voters support Medicare for All, taxing the rich, & taking on the broligarchy. Will the Democratic leadership wake up or keep listening to corporate donors? thelefthook.substack.com/p/moderate-d...

There is honestly no damn reason to be on Xitter. None. Gonna start posting BlueSky links to every one that posts Xitter screenshots. Give the journos their due.

Excellent. Fact check in real time.

I love that artists are doing this. We need songs, art, dance, paintings -- all of it.

Absolutely this. The main takeaway from this is that these people live in a lawless world where the only rules are the ones they write.

Smartmatic — the voting machine company at the heart of Trump's 2020 election lies — just accused the Trump Justice Department of vindictive and selective prosecution, saying that DOJ is now bringing a criminal case against them to further the Trump admin's baseless lies about that vote.

Sen John Cornyn has an op-ed in Rupert Murdoch's NYPost, arguing that reducing the number of voters in the midterms is essential to GOP success at the polls. This is the GOP success formula in Texas, which has the lowest voter rates in the entire developed world—by design.

Yep. It would be interesting to go back and look at what the MAGA influencers and GOP members of Congress said during the campaign about Trump's "no new wars" pledge.

Paying Chevron more … for freedom

😕 🍪

If this doesn’t suggest “Abolish ICE” should be the main Democratic message, I don’t know what does.

Sherrod is right there, Ohio. Fix this, friends.

Well he needs to be taken to a grocery store then out behind the woodshed both would be educational for him.

The stupid Department of Defense Secretary spent SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on Herman Miller chairs and Jon Husted is slamming the poor folks? (I would love a Herman Miller chair but I can't afford one)

Schrödinger’s War.

NEW: Israel has concluded in #Iran war • Regime change not an option • Protests didn’t mobilize • Kurdish option is no more Result: Escalation of strikes as Trump looks for “elegant exit” and wait for next round www.al-monitor.com/originals/20...

One of the stupidest wars in world history, which is really saying something

JD Vance walks like a downtrodden gorilla

Not limited to your age. We all feel it. There is no one who gave us more of a case for hope when it had been more or less shattered than Obama did.

Like I said

Oh, well then.

Sounds like someone’s about to shift the blame

Putin is doing a happy dance

So do most Americans, about America

Any Republican condemn Rep. Andy Ogles, who tweeted that Muslims don't belong in American society?

Mike is standing there like a tone-deaf crash test dummy while Americans can't afford groceries, healthcare, or housing.

Where is this golden age you speak of, Mikey? And are you supposed to lie like that?

reality, or an early draft of next Saturday's SNL cold open? you decide
