Good evening. Everyone who keeps lying for Trump can get the hell out.

Don't talk to me about "Make America Great Again" anymore. Look, this is the "greatness" they want—turning the highest institution of power into a circus flooded with cheap redneck taste, violent fighting, and low-quality beer.

The grand-sounding "1.776 billion": The name itself is quite surreal. This isn't a fund; it's clearly a "MAGA fan-exclusive consolation fund." Even those convicted in the January 6th Capitol Hill incident are excitedly preparing to apply.😆

What an absolute mess and a complete disgrace!

I am begging Democratic leadership: don't make fear the strategy for 2028. The GOP attacks everyone. It doesn't matter if it's a woman, a man, a Christian, a moderate, or a progressive. Pick the best candidate. Trust voters. Meet the moment instead of running from it. #ProudBlue

In an era of multiparty politics - first past the post is utterly broken. It is time for Proportional Representation. The climate crisis & our inequality crisis cannot wait for another general election. Failing to fix our democracy immediately will betray future generations.

After reading this report, I am deeply disturbed. Ebola and Hantavirus are both deadly threats, and yet the Trump administration is preventing its top scientists from engaging in dialogue with the WHO?

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying.

The most direct impact on ordinary people is the soaring gasoline prices, leading to a comprehensive increase in the costs of driving, transportation, and living.

We have THE BEST justice system that money can buy. 💰😾🦇

No truer words were ever spoken...

GOP Sen. Thom Tillis calls the new Trump/DOJ $1.776 Bn slush fund "stupid on stilts." "These people assaulted police officers, admitted their guilt, were convicted. Now we're going to pay them for that?!?!" He calls it what it is: "tyranny,” and corruption on steroids!

Heartened to see a Democrat take on Reagan and this ridiculous quote. It's always gotten under my skin.

The sailors endured record days and nights at sea, and their dedication deserves respect. Those who should be held truly accountable are those who use the military as a campaign tool.

Fox News is featuring JD Vance’s anti-fraud speech. Meanwhile, the NY Times reveals that the Trump regime is dropping fraud charges against an Indian billionaire who hired one of Trump’s personal lawyers.

AOC: “If the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this administration that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”

Exclusive: A Kansas woman was detained at the airport by Customs for voting as a noncitizen, marking an escalation of Trump’s attempts to find election fraud. CBP typically plays no part in these investigations. 🧵https://www.propublica.org/article/noncitizen-voter-detained-airport-customs

NEGUSE: My understanding is a no bid contract is reserved for situations involving serious injury. What's the injury w/the reflecting pool? BURGUM: 19 fountains didn't work NEGUSE: That's the serious injury!? And who picked this company? Trump said 'I have a guy who's unbelievable at doing pools'

Pentagon Comptroller Jay Hurst said the estimate increased “because of updated repair and replacement of equipment cost and also just general operational cost.”

Filming has begun on FLESH OF THE GODS, a vampire movie from Mandy director Panos Cosmatos & A24. Kristen Stewart & Wagner Moura star. Written by Andrew Kevin Walker (Seven). A married couple in ’80s L.A. descend into an electric nighttime realm each evening.

NEW: Math teacher Jason Agan was deemed “unfit to teach.” But the finding was never made public. This is how the state allowed him — and dozens of other educators found to have committed sexual harassment or misconduct — to keep their credentials. With @kqednews.kqed.org

This by Ryan Hass rings true to what I've seen/ heard/ learned about current PRC leaders' view of US. (TL;DR China has enormous problems, but the US is blowing itself up.) Can't imagine MAGA team has any inkling of this. (Cf: "Quick, easy victory over Iran.") www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
