I wonder if the "pressure on Iran to finally agree to the president's terms" is anything like the pressure on the Trump administration to finally release the Epstein files. The DOJ has the files. Iran has the Strait ... and probably has the Epstein files.

Hahahaha! AI is making Yelp irrelevant.

I haven't been to a movie theater since 2019 or earlier. I have no desire to ever go again. At home, I can take pee breaks without missing anything. Little things are important to us old folks. 😂

🤣🤣 This needs to go viral on every social media platform.

They're making lists. Death camps await us. It feels like we're living through the prequel to The Handmaid's Tale ... especially when you hear Ken Paxton's twisted musings about James Talarico's testosterone levels.

💔 Ukrainian soldiers unexpectedly arrived from the front for their daughters' graduation ceremonies.

Succinct. Accurate. Irrefutable ... unless you're a fellow ignorant prick.

If you're a registered Democrat who wants to vote by mail, you'll need to voluntarily place yourself on their domestic terrorist watch list by registering federally. I'd like to think judges won't allow this to happen, but SCOTUS can't be trusted to understand and uphold our Constitution.

This is heartbreaking.

Trump has taken a lot of judicial hits in the last few days. I'm glad to see we still have judges willing to stand up to his corruption.

I have no doubt.

If we truly wanted to "make America great again," we'd get corporations (and their greedy billionaire overlords) out of our food supply. Farm-to-table removes all the middlemen, most of the packaging waste, and transport. It's better for the planet. Healthier. Tastier. Make farming local again.

Will he ignore, defy, or appeal the order? History says he won't simply comply.

Spoken like a man whose mother emasculated him daily his entire childhood.

This is tragic... ... and sadly also very true! #Gone #StopTrump #resist 👊🏼

Bonus: It has a great dance beat. I might be playing this on loop for a while. 😅

The Epstein class wants women to be afraid to tell people they were sexually assaulted ... ... just like (many/most?) evangelical Christian parents forbid any talk about genitalia or sex ... ... who then become afraid to tell their parents if/when they're sexually assaulted. See how this works?

Now they're analyzing what sort of market shocks this announcement will cause so they can fine-tune their finalized plans in order to ensure maximum market extraction when they announce them. Right?

A gay friend once told me, "Any man who will beat a woman is so deep in the closet that he can't even come out to himself." It's one of the things his dad said when he came out. I had just escaped a violent relationship. We should tack that line onto every instance of GOP violence against women.

Trump's cabinet members, along with Congressional Republicans, are self-emasculating.

MacFarlane: I think the pope is also channeling the voices of any number of young people who are petrified of this, dispirited by this, worried about what this means for their future. Pretty silent on the home front from political leaders here. It’s nice to see the pope talking about it.

Memorial Day always brings up very difficult memories for me: the loss of four friends when a B-1B crashed into the side of a mountain in south Texas in 1992. The memorial service was heart-wrenching. Tomorrow isn't a day I "celebrate."

"Any American who experiences tragedy followed by illness will have two thoughts: 'What is taking time off going to cost me, and how will I pay my medical bills?' Those are deeply dysfunctional thoughts, because this is a deeply dysfunctional country." Sarah Kendzior

How long before we all need to start carrying our papers with us everywhere we go? How long before we have to (somehow, magically) start proving we're Christians? Should we all download bibles to our phones, just in case? Or prove we aren't LGBTQ+? Or proclaim that rape and murder aren't wrong?

This! Every ending brings a new beginning. Living in the past clouds the present.

Trump is afraid his Brown Shirts won't slaughter innocent Americans for him if they're struggling to buy gas and groceries.

If they can bankrupt every small business in the nation, then the robber barons can swoop in and slap their shingles on everything. AI can do the work. Who needs humans? They are flushing out all competition. It's an economic coup.

Every American should be disgusted by this.

This is the perfect time for Thomas Massie to release every name in the Epstein files and spend the rest of his time refusing to capitulate to the MAGA/Republican movement. Just fucking go scorched earth, because why not?

What's the difference between 19th century robber barons and 21st century robber barons? Different names Different industries Today's robber barons built AI technologies and surveillance networks that helped them develop their thievery into a global wealth extraction crime syndicate.

Did Mark Cuban fork over a share of Cost Plus Drugs to the U.S. government, the way Intel, Lockheed Martin, and others did? Or is Trump laundering his product? There has to be an exchange of money here. There has to be!

This is refreshing!

Mark Cuban is just another billionaire doing what billionaires do in a kleptocracy.

Film you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Wars/Trek, HP, LOTR, Marvel.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

This is some sick shit!

It's refreshing to see a title reflect reality.

Even SCOTUS is defunct now.

To MAGA: I do not care what your opinion is of how NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani successfully eliminated a $12B deficit left to him by the previous administration. Why do I not care? Because you worship a rapist President who is responsible for 25% of all debt in American history. Your Opinion Is Void.

Yeah, and my mama banned the Beatles ... ... or so she thought. Things that would never tempt a teenager grab their attention as soon as it's forbidden. And they always find ways to get it.

Check out the feed too!

Trump will never accept defeat, nor will he admit to making a mistake. It's really too bad Fetterman betrayed America. He needs to officially declare his allegiance to the GOP and Donald Trump. And the DNC needs to officially censure him. IMO.

On this day five years ago the USA threw in the towel on Covid. It ended roughly three months of taking the pandemic seriously, from Biden's inauguration to Walensky's surprise anti-mask announcement...

Best laugh of the day so far!

TN eliminated only majority-Black district AL, LA eliminating majority-Black districts SC planning to oust only Black Democrat since Reconstruction MS planning to oust only Black rep GA planning special session to eliminate majority-Black districts This is what return to Jim Crow looks like

America needs to get corporations out of our foods and farmers back in communities. If all our foods didn't have to be warehoused and shipped across the country, our foods would be fresher, more flavorful, healthier. Our neighbors would be in control of our food prices instead of billionaires.

Thomas Stockett's Baltimore Afro-American cartoon on the Voting Rights Act, August 1965.

I don't think gerrymandering can save the GOP from getting slaughtered in the mid-terms. By the time November arrives, everybody will want them gone, probably including a few billionaires. What will they do instead? Deploy the military?
