Congress works 140 days a year and earns $174K annually, plus full benefits. How can anyone survive on that without a few stock trades and a little insider trading? They get 225 days off a year and think it’s okay to hold the federal minimum wage at $7.25 an hour for 17 years.

The Religious Right is desperate these days to pretend that "Christian Nationalism" is (1) a recently-invented term and (2) a pejorative invented by their enemies, but neither of those claims is remotely true. Here's a short thread, but I'm sure other historians will have examples too.

Chinese newspaper cartoon (Today... 😂 )

"To the folks at CBS, in the words of the great Ed Murrow, good night and good luck, motherf* kers."

Every so often, truth escapes Donald Trump's lips. This is true. Trump doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone's financial situation except his own and that of his cronies.

Here’s 30 years of Bibi Netanyahu claiming that Iran is days away from nuclear weapons.

Let’s all post it and see if they indict all of us.

Will I be charged ya think?

I feel so, so badly for the poor White House Correspondents who had to come face to face with the same threat that your average 5th grader faces when walking to Reading class

LOL This aired last week, her indignation is a bit delayed, no? Oh well, anyway, I don’t care, do you?

Amen, Ron!

I’m not watching the lying best friend of Epstein after his 3rd fake assassination attempt.

This is so cute!!

This happened less than 10 miles from my home. This is a devastating outcome of poverty and gun violence.

“DoorDash Grandma” Sharon Simmons said she saved $11,000 from “No Tax on Tips.” She earned that in tips. Her tax savings is likely closer to $2,000. If Sharon enrolled in the ACA, her savings in cancer treatments for her husband would be $50-100k/yr. #Pinks www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Wait, I seem to have missed the big news of satanic, demonic, child sacrificing monsters being exposed?! Why is this not being reported widely? I mean that should be at least as big a story as the child raping monster in the White House!

Every once in a while, I like to watch this video clip of Joe Biden comforting a grieving Parkland family to remind myself what compassionate leadership looks like. This is the stuff I truly miss.

Pope Leo after Trump's attacks: “I have no fear of the Trump administration or speaking out loudly of the message of the Gospel, which is what I believe I am here to do, what the Church is here to do.”

BREAKING: Hungary just saw a stunning political shakeup. Opposition leader Péter Magyar says Prime Minister Viktor Orbán personally called to congratulate him on his victory, marking the imminent end to Orbán’s long grip on power.

Did Donald "the Demented" Trump call Joe Biden retarded in today's press conference??? Why has the press not spoken about this? 😡🤬

morning

I hope Trump doesn’t say something stupid and/or offensive about the missing US air crew. But I wouldn’t bet against it. It’s impossible to imagine what their families are already going through.

Makes you wonder why tRump hates migrants. 🤨

Thought I would help spread some good news on this Taco Tuesday.😂

Handing out the Epstein files at CPAC. From @thegoodliars.bsky.social

The question is, do I take my shoes off on my flight to Cancun??

This is MIND BLOWING!! Again, thank you to all the Mega-Putz heads out there who didn't vote, and could have prevented this mess!

Senator Murphy is a scraper! Very impressive interviews from him over the past few weeks. He is definitely more than meets the eye, and seems to be a great option for majority leader!

Hey Merrick Garland 175 Iranian mothers suffering the loss of their daughters, ghouls like Stephen Miller are actually making government policy, and it's ALL YOUR FUCKING FAULT You are a dottering old stodgy fool. You waited over 3 years to open the Jan 6 investigation you're responsible for the war

He’s “fixed” it alright, just not for the majority of us.

Maybe the donald can give the 400 million dollars he so easily secured to build a ballroom to our social services sector to help families with healthcare, housing and food. Or continue to whine like a little bitch about his "stolen election" that wasn't stolen.

Jesus, someone is chewing gum with her mouth open, on camera, during our professional training...🤮

Every Democratic Candidate need to start every campaign speech with "Donald Trump made over 4 billion last year off his Presidency, how'd you all do?"

"Christian nationalism is not a type of Christianity; it’s a parasitic form of nationalism that infects Christianity, eats it from the inside, and creates a zombie nationalism that wears a Christian skinsuit." Can James Talarico force it to expose itself?

Mike Johnson's strategy to allow the Trump admin to do whatever it wants with zero oversight or congressional authority or input is just to keep the House out of session repeatedly for extended periods of time.

Crow: "Friday night, Trump filmed this tough video where he talked about the cost of war & how hard it's gonna be & how we're gonna lose troops, then he literally went behind the curtain & hosted a million dollar a plate dinner & dance party at Mar-a-Lago. That tells you everything you need to know"
