And Kid Rock has entered the face eating leopard den.

Trump declared that he wanted to use the military in Mexico to go after drug cartels. Then, Trump declared Mexican drug cartels to be terrorist organizations. Then, Trump declared that the Mexican government is allied with the cartels.

One scientist texted his landlord to say his rent would be late. Another wasn’t able to pay her credit card bill. Yet another worried how much longer he could afford his mortgage. These were some effects of Trump’s federal funding freeze on researchers who rely on National Science Foundation grants.

I didn't have a chance to see the whole Kennedy confirmation hearing yesterday. Did anyone bother to ask him if the nomination was direct quid pro quo for his support after dropping out of the race? Or is that just too obvious?

Open-air corruption. They’re just flaunting it.

Trump just slapped a 25% tariff on everything from Columbia in retaliation for refusing two deportation flights. It goes up to 50% in a week. Expect your coffee to get even more expensive. www.cnn.com/2025/01/26/p...

Folks on the left who refused to vote for Harris because of Gaza? Trump wants to "clean it out" by removing the Palestinians. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

This is happening to thousands of people fighting for their lives because in real life, government does a lot of good and important shit.

Trump has ordered the National Institutes of Health to cancel their review panels on cancer research. “The impact of [Trump’s] collective executive orders appears devastating,” one senior NIH employee says.

People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states. To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.

Iowa activists, activate. ICE is rounding up “suspected” undocumented immigrants. No due process for American OR undocumented human beings. 🙏🏽

About 44% of Trump’s election was funded by just 10 megadonors, almost exactly 15 years after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark 'Citizens United' ruling, which opened the floodgates for corporations and billionaires to pour unlimited money into elections.

When asked if he thinks violent Jan 6 offenders, including those who brutally attacked police, should have been pardoned, Senator Tommy Tuberville replied that he "didn't see the video" showing the violence. It's been 4 years, Senator, it's been 4 years.

Trump has suspended refugee admissions programs. As a result: Nearly 1,660 Afghans cleared by the U.S. government to resettle in the U.S. — including family members of active-duty U.S. military personnel — are having their flights canceled. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Every morning when I wake up...and read the latest news about the California fires and the loss of life and property, and the amount of sorrow and heartache...I literally take a few minutes and walk around my house, feeling grateful that I have a roof over my head.

“How did we get to the point where climate disasters like the Los Angeles fire happen?” ask mainstream media outlets like the New York Times that relentlessly ridiculed Al Gore’s environmentalism a quarter century ago.

Seriously, what is even the point of a conviction with all the teeth of a Gummi bear?

Today, November 25th 2024 is the day we officially learned that justice in America, in fact, does NOT matter. #sad

Milley: Don’t lecture me about women in combat. Women have been in combat…
