More proof that the president has the intellect of a small child.

Hate to say it, but I told you they can't stop us from waving Pride flags in Seattle during the match. Seattle is Seattle and that's that.

This Book Was So Prophetic. It Should Be The New Bible.

Bradley is a brilliant actor. I loved "Silver Linings Playbook." His character is reportedly based on Michael Fanone, as well it should be. They even look a bit alike. I can't wait!!

Correct. Many millions of Americans ceased caring about corruption, lawlessness, unconstitutional power grabs, and habitual lying years ago. Our standards have fallen so low as a nation that Vance can brag about getting away with it and still have a political future. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump's so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill” is creating a child hunger crisis in America—over 770,000 kids cut off from SNAP, families struggling to put food on the table. We cannot accept this. No child in the richest nation on earth should go hungry. op: @jesscraven
