LOL!! As a USian, I can (shamefully) concede this is accurate. 😂

When I see Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren endorse Graham Platner, it doesn’t make me trust Platner, it makes me lose respect for Sanders and Warren.

Shocker‼️ Trump Jr. cashes in on President Daddy. Vulcan Elements, a rare-earth magnets startup backed by Donald Trump Jr., just landed a $620 million contract from the U.S. Department of Defense. House Democrats tried to subpoena him over the timing. Republicans blocked it.

lol, right. Sure. He's "almost" guaranteed to cheat. If he *didn't* cheat, the collective gasp of surprise would deplete the world's oxygen.

NYT - Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order at Supreme Court Splits Conservative Scholars Birthright Citizenship is CLEARLY STATED in the constitution. They are twisting themselves into pretzels to try to justify going against the constitution SIMPLY FOR TRUMP SELLING THEIR SOULS FOR TRUMP

Seriously, it's this aspect of things that is a top stressor in my daily news reading. I fucking hate that the media are just stenographers of this dipshit's hourly rants without doing the most basic amount of actual *reporting* about it, like when it disagrees with 5-minutes-earlier statement.

The call is coming from inside the house.

There was a good reason we prevented every previous president and their families from exercising most individual financial activities while in office.

👊 According to the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation Kovalenko, Russia has already lost almost 40% of its monthly missile production and about 45% of its oil exports as a result of Ukrainian strikes on their facilities, as well as logistics.

Yup.

Donald Trump inherited a solid economy twice and he completely fucked it both times.

ICE are murderers. Sometime directly (Good, Pretti) but more often like this: through intentional negligence leading to sustained, painful death. And we're all accomplices as long as we allow it to happen. D:

True statement. 👇

Not a single lawbreaking ICE agent has been arrested these past 14 months. Not a single state has had the balls or the morality to do so. The rule of law is dead in the USA and replaced by the rule of terrorism. I grieve for us all.

Full disclosure: I'm not Christian and don't really have a dog in this particular fight. Still, I appreciate religious leaders who adhere to their own dogma.

Yo, Hungary! See how it works?

Alice Augusta Ball found the cure for leprosy at 23. She died in a mysterious lab accident at 24. Arthur Dean stole her research, stole it and renamed it from "The Ball Method" to "The Dean Method." It took 90 years before her original research papers were found and she got the credit due to her.

Walz: We will never leave the side of our Somali Minnesotans. Here's our pledge to you, our Somali Minnesotans, your great grandchildren will still be here when that orange clown is in the dustbin of history.

Another contender in the Best Signs competition

haha. I'm not going to try to pick winners, but this one is genius. XD

Today's GOP

Ya. Pretty much what this person said, off in heathen-space. (apologies in advance for the image from that place)

Aaahahahahahaaaa! In fairness, I think the douchestache really ties the look together. /lebowski

It’s disgusting to think the signature from Epstein’s birthday card would be on our currency.

No shit. I paid off my student loans over a decade ago, but I still thought it was the right thing to forgive the others and support it completely. Student loan debt is unconscionable.

A politician with the guts to say it: "No American child from the blue collar or the middle class should have to die fighting in Iran. Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein War." - Premier Wab Kinew at the NDP national convention, Winnipeg.

Of course, there are way more than these chucklefucks in the Epstein Files. This is basically a starter pack.

Huh. He finally admitted it.

So, the market is looking to drop below 45000. Is that the magic number where we can resume investigating the pedophiles in charge? It feels like a 10% drop in the market may be enough outside the standard deviation to allow this. Could somebody please check with Bondi?

lol, thanks, rapepublicans. *This* is how stupid your leader is. *This* is what the rest of the world is doing while laughing at your Foolius Caesar.

Meanwhile, I had my first encounter with an all-genders public restroom in Seattle (all stalls, no urinals), and was surprised by how thoroughly mundane and unremarkable a co-ed restroom actually is in practice when the people involved are normal and not, yknow, paranoid gender-policing creeps.

:(

As the elected leader of the country that is basically single-handedly holding off Russian imperial ambitions in defense of Europe, he's a pretty good choice. Despite the irony of ensuring peace by waging an unwanted (yes, defensive) war.

“That just doesn’t make sense to me — when the richest people have the smallest effective tax rate, that does not seem like a very fair system.” #LiftTheCap

Deploying ICE at airports is to normalize their transition from being a special operation targeting immigrants to being an entity that polices all. This is the production of the American Gestapo, one institution at a time.

My prediction: If he's elected in Maine, Platner will pull a Fetterman faster than Fetterman did.
