people need to go to jail over this, its the only thing the democratic party should be saying right now. all of them, in unison, no matter the question or topic, needs to be saying “insider trading is against the law”

“.. They may have realized it was simply bad business to say that your great new product will destroy the economy.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-w...

Investment accounts owned by President Trump engaged in more than 300 previously undisclosed stock purchases on April 8, 2025, one day before his surprise announcement that he would pause a number of his “Liberation Day” tariffs, his financial disclosure report says.

You can tell that this game will destroy at least one nation's psyche and that's what sports are all about baby

Sigh. I’ll be a hater and say it: In actual reality, your taxes paid for an illegal crew of naive tech boys, led by a billionaire, and backed by a Corrupt Court, to destroy your gov’t services, hospitals, housing, education, and cancer cures, taking them away from your American family members.

important to revisit the words of the Founding Fathers on this day

Happy 10th anniversary of this essay about the dangers of Donald Trump, written by... JD Vance. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

JUST POSTED: An updated tally is in, and the count of Trump followers turned financial losers is even bigger than first thought. Much bigger. 988,905 buyers of #$TRUMP memecoin have lost a total of $3.81 billion. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/04/u...

What if we rebooted Tom Clancy’s “Cardinal in the Kremlin,” but it was in the United States and everyone was an idiot?

Rep. Jason Crow on the nearly $60 million in foreign money Trump pocketed in a single year: "This grift and corruption is staggering. Accountability is coming." We read all 927 pages of the disclosure to find it. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/the-regime...

This is someone who previously used private financial information to target the presidents enemies with legal charges. So good chance he is now trying to do the same with intelligence information.

Good LATimes piece leading its front page this morning: "anniversary events throughout the nation’s capital centered on President Trump" have turned Independence Day into "a celebration of an imperial presidency rather than a revolution from kingly rule." www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

"The Pope is the puppet of the Chinese authoritatian government" is a take you would make if you made billions by drinking paint.

So I said “Bobby Lee, it sounds like you’re just feeding brigades to emplaced artillery” and then Longstreet started crying.

PITTSBURGH—Noting that the man could often be seen waiting outside O’Malley’s Tap with his hands shaking in anticipation before the doors even opened, sources confirmed Thursday that local 54-year-old Brian Munson, who goes to the bar every day at 10 a.m., must be a huge soccer fan.

Modern conservatism is just this, but also having contempt for any of the actual policy choices that might uphold it. It's not even bread and circuses, it's the insistence that all of the benefits of industrialized civilization exist by right, and any attempt to protect or expand them is gay.

If you invested $10,000 in Trump coin on Jan 20, 2025, it would be worth $415 today. People didn't buy these coins as an investment. They bought them to put money in Trump's pockets in exchange for something they want. It's the scummiest grift operation ever to hit the presidency.

Real Butter doesn’t give a fuck whether you believe in it or not

For as long as I've been alive, the right wing in the US has been on a flywheel that only goes in one direction: more radical, toward "a patriarchal version of Christianity and an unapologetic ethnonationalism." The only thing that matters in politics right now is stopping these motherfuckers.

I think treason is bad.

✅ Yes, Trump's motorcade drove through the reflecting pool after it was painted and sealed. Some news outlets showed footage of the cars crossing a seemingly wet patch of paint and leaving tire marks behind. www.snopes.com/fact-check/t...

“We’re getting very close to meeting our objectives as we move toward winding down humanity’s presence on planet Earth,” Trump said during a press conference meant to address concerns over the world’s duration

the commutation was an abuse of power since she was utterly unrepentant and he knew it, it was timed in a way to foil the legislature responding which was another abuse of power and this is insult to injury, he should be impeached

anyway i hope qatar enjoys their “we bribed trump with a plane and all we got was this lousy destroyed LNG facility” t-shirt

38% of Republicans backed birthright citizenship in a recent Reuters poll, 42% in a recent Quinnipiac poll. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/30/u... poll.qu.edu/poll-release... I expect those numbers to halved next time this is polled. Word has gone out on the right that birthright citizenship is evil.

Stiff competition, but for me, birthright citizenship is the worst case the Supreme Court decided this term. Even though it came out the right way, learning that 4 of 9 justices are fully in "the Constitution means whatever Mister Trump tweets" territory is...really alarming.

its impossible to defend our system without sounding dumb as shit. even if you take her comments in good faith, she just blew past the fact that college is so unaffordable parents are using their own kids as lottery tickets. certainly doesn’t solve all the problems and attitudes, but its right there

fans that don't come to the stadium typically can't influence outcomes much. but if you wanted to *hurt* your team's chances in PKs, hard to think of a better strategy than informing players willing to take them that they're exposing themselves to online abuse www.reuters.com/sports/socce...

Morning shows.

The idea that my restaurant venture “Four Seasonings” was doomed because Four Seasons would get litigious is so idiotic. The idea was doomed because we picked paprika and smoked paprika as two of the seasonings and forgot salt.

Erin Burnett on Trump's crypto scam: Take a look at this chart. In blue, how much money Trump's family has gained. In red, how much investors have lost. The same amount. More than $2 billion.

And where is the left wing Hoover Institution, the left wing Heritage Foundation/AEI/Manhattan Institute, the left wing New York Post, the left wing Bohemian Club?

Republicans are not making any kind of legal argument against the 14th Amendment. They’re saying “immigration leads to bad outcomes so it must be ended.” They’re lying about those outcomes, but try to apply that argument to 2A with real outcomes and see how they react.

As Congress debates a defense spending bill that will be somewhere between $1 and $1.5 trillion, really looking forward to the elite media demanding "BUT HOW WILL YOU PAY FOR IT???" from Republicans like they do with every Democratic social spending initiative. Ha ha, just kidding

Experts aren't always right. That's why I put my faith in morons who are never right

this is why i can't do this shit anymore, every time i open this app i see people who are supposed to be journalists describing citizens' Constitutional rights being treated like they're games in a playoff stretch run

Ugh. Supreme Court rules in Slaughter, 6-3 that Trump can fire people from the FTC. But in Cook, Court rules 5-4 that Trump cannot fire everybody from the Fed. Roberts writes both majority opinions There's no real difference between the FTC and the FED other than Roberts likes the Fed.

Alito’s dissent in the vote counting case makes perfect sense if you think of it from the perspective of a braindead fox news viewer who thinks dems are “cheating” when more vote get counted and a republican lead in the count is erased.
