How many days has Congress worked this year? Pay 'em by the day; make them work a given number of hours to earn the health coverage we fund (town halls count; "time in the district" does not); assets must be handled by an outsider; halve funds for offices/staffs. If *I* don't work, I'm not paid. 🤷‍♀️

So my tax dollars are being used to fund Peepaw Trump's personal army of thugs who will terrorize me as I attempt to vote? Do I have that right?

Wouldn't you hate to be the poor schmuck who had to try to explain the Thucydides Trap to Peepaw Trump?

rare moment of absolute honesty from Trump He doesn’t care about the struggles of everyday Americans.

I’m feeling pretty good today, got my doctor-recommended 7 hours of blinking last night

slightly increase a band Much Better Than Ezra

In the vanishingly rare instance where one of his lackeys wants to do the right thing, Peepaw Trump leaps in to make sure that doesn't happen. Only question worth asking is, how much did Glas pay Peepaw Trump for the favor?

If this creep is looking for Nephilim, which are associated with violence and corruption, I'd advise her to begin her search in the Oval Office.

Hey, @alsobrooks.senate.gov -- constituent here. You voted YEA to confirm this guy. Spectacular work. I DID NOT VOTE FOR YOU TO HAVE YOU AFFIRMING THE REGIME'S AIMS BY HELPING PLACE ITS LACKEYS IN POSITIONS OF AUTHORITY.

Correct. Access, clicks, and pretending all this is perfectly normal are all more important than decency and courage.

I was once called a bitch by a middle schooler, just in case you're wondering what level of discourse we're dealing with here.

Peepaw Trump's just touring the greatest hits now, isn't he.

Add in the fact that Peepaw Trump is a sadist who gets off on others' suffering and a malignant narcissist who gets off on having the literal power of life and death over us. God help us all.

My parents are in their 80s and you can go pound sand, you unfeeling jerk.

And if the GOP does anything at all to try and put the brakes on, it'll be in the form of drastic cuts to vital services to the most needy; they won't lift a finger to rein in Peepaw Trump's profligate war spending. Stellar work, fellas! I'm sure Jesus is very proud of you.

I'm afraid this day -- between Hegseth and SCOTUS and Blanche -- might have broken me. I'm so tired. I want my life back. I want my hope back. These people steal EVERYTHING.

Not to worry! I'm sure Peepaw Trump will fleece the taxpayers and use the take to pay Ms. Carroll.

Whoa, @georgetownlaw.bsky.social -- y'all better come get yer boy here.

Notice how a book can make you gay, a vaccine can make you autistic, a mask can make you sicker, and a poster of the Ten Commandments can make you moral, but guns don’t kill people.

And weren't we told that Peepaw Trump's fat cat donors were picking up the tab for his Big Boy Ballroom Bunker?

We, the taxpayers of the US, are funding these people's amusements. I for one am sick and tired of paying their way. The joyrides, the junkets, the security details for their concubines...ENOUGH.

“Oh, do you think he was referring to you?” Intentional or unintentional this was pretty savage

in 2024 mr trump was swept back into office by an angry public who was fed up with not having a ballroom... and he will not stop until he delivers for the american people

If Peepaw Trump's lackeys are so concerned about his safety, why don't they keep him from golfing out in the wide open impossible-to-secure spaces? Why don't they insist on background checks/fingerprints for every member of Mar a Lago? Asking for a perplexed public.

Do I get a ballroom bunker for when some gun nut storms my school with murder on his mind, or do I just get to keep doing evacuation drills that make second graders cry because they're so scared of it happening for real? LOLLLLLLLLL we all know the answer to that one don't we

I'll have to rely on the summaries and recaps of Peepaw Trump's post-incident ramblings, because I shan't be watching.

Gee, that's too bad. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/23/u...

WHCD now is like an ant that gets taken over by that weird fungus that kills it but uses its body to facilitate producing more spores and infecting more ants.

Hey, those ballrooms and triumphal arches and Big Bomb Go Boom wars don't come cheap, you know. King Felon must be appeased.

Let's not forget, Peepaw Trump runs casinos into the ground.

The regime sends out its boot-lickers to spout its propaganda on state media. Remind me...do I live in Russia or the US? It's getting harder and harder to tell the difference.

Remember when right-wingers lost their minds over giving Iran money? I do.

It's giving Napoleon's little jaunt into Russia. And for the same reasons: lousy planning and hubris.

Don't listen to Peepaw Trump and VP John David Bowman. Pope Leo isn't calling names; he isn't even naming names. So isn't it funny that these two imbeciles know he's talking to them? www.archbalt.org/archbishop-w...

Today in pedantry: It's pieds à terre. Not piedaterres or any of the other variants I've seen today. Thank you for your time; I'll see myself out.

It is difficult -- nay, it is impossible -- for me to adequately express my glee at this exchange.

This ish right here is exactly why my profile says "Not THAT kind of Christian."

Hungary’s voters spoke out forcefully against far-right bullshit and isolationist policies. Good.

I wanna point out something serious. The admin has been complaining about Iran winning the information war. This same administration shut down Voice of America, and other information operations the US govt does. It’s a self goal. Actions have consequences

Well, we've come full circle. Peepaw Trump sent the First Concubine out to dangle the Epstein Affair before us so as to distract from his debacle in the Middle East, which he created so as to distract from the Epstein Affair.

In response to the Pope’s anti-war statements, the Pentagon summoned his ambassador and told him that the U.S. has the military power to do “whatever it wants” and that the Catholic Church had better fall in line. As a Christian, as a Protestant, as an American I renounce this as evil.

Can confirm. My 7th grade boys think AI is a bad joke. "No, scroll down, don't use the AI overview, half the time it's wrong" is just one thing I heard last week.

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

If the ceasefire holds (big if), the fairest way to “score” the war in Iran: - clear operational successes. Large number of IRGC killed, Iranian Navy largely destroyed, etc. - a massive tactical failure. 1/4

Hegseth said we’ve rendered Iran combat ineffective for years to come. Just today, Iran has launched attacks at UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel, damaging critical infrastructure (desalinization plants, oil pipelines, etc) Less than a week since they shot down an F-15 and an A-10.

"They're not allowed to use civilians to try to keep me from committing war crimes! NO FAIR!" The Toddler in Chief

You need to understand that the world is just a reality show to Peepaw Trump. We're all just contestants that he doesn't know, doesn't care about (except if we can somehow make him richer or greater), and will happily "fire" if it fits the story he wants told. He'll kill us all and not even notice.

I think this is a smashing idea.

I invite you to imagine the shrieking, gnashing of teeth, rending of garments and calls for immediate impeachment from right-wingers if Biden or Obama had ever pulled a stunt like this.

But I was told the regime would relentlessly pursue the worst of the worst! Oh, wait, never mind -- that's what they said they'd do to brown and Black people who dared enter the US in search of a better life. And they'd terrorize and kidnap law-abiding residents. My mistake!
