I love this country. It's got a lot of problems, but it's my home and I want it to be good and I think it could be good. I love my country and I want to celebrate our 250th Independence Day too And all day--ALL DAY--the administration has made it clear that they don't consider me a real American

Staggering levels of corruption. They’re using every possible lever of power to enrich themselves and their friends and families. And the “party of fiscal responsibility” simply doesn’t care.

If, at the end of this dark era, we actually have a Democratic president again, there is one thing they absolutely must take to heart: F*ck forgiveness. Our country will only unite behind criminal prosecution and prison sentences, before eventually, slowly, beginning to heal.

Trump attacked Massie because he demanded what Trump promised during his campaign. Kentuckians abandoned Massie because he demanded what they voted for during Trump’s campaign. That’s how screwed up the Republican Party has become.

This is easily the saddest time in American history. The absolute worst people are systematically destroying the country, and our system is completely failing to stop them.

When a democratic president is underwater on approval the media interviews republican voters and when a republican president is underwater the media interviews republican voters

Xi: America is declining as a world power Trump: HE MEANT UNDER SLEEPY JOE!! No, you assclown - he meant because you’re intentionally isolating the US on the world stage and GIVING our influence away.

Republicans make us pay more for gas, groceries, and a multitude of other things, make us pay for their wars and bombing campaigns, want us to pay for Trump’s ballroom, and now want us to pay $1.7 billion to “compensate” convicted J6 criminals he pardoned. Vote them all out.

This. All of this. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Did you know every MAGA influencer is in a group chat with people close to the administration where they’re regularly given scripts? They also have a website to sign up for influence campaigns that they never disclose. They’re making bank off of lying to you.

So the war was quite literally pointless. All around the world they're rationing energy, there are food shortages, people are suffering and dying, all for absolutely fucking nothing.

People ask why I’m optimistic with how bad things are and it’s the miraculousness of human nature Common people have been toppling authoritarians for centuries. People who have no idea what’s going on are instinctively preparing for crisis and growing softer and kinder as revolutionary energy grows

How, exactly, did we go from a $200 million privately-funded ballroom, to a $1 billion taxpayer-funded one?

Look if you've got a better way to run a country than "putting an illiterate octogenarian bigot on TV every few days to free associate and complain, and then everyone tries to figure out if it means we're about to start a war or not" I'd love to hear it. But the constitution says this is it.

I so look forward to the day when I can turn on my TV and not hear his voice. Seriously, I dream of that day.

Absolutely! Two can play at this game.

When it all feels too heavy, put it down for a while. Do not let it break you, or turn you into the thing you despise. We’ve been fighting this madness for a while. It’s ok to feel weary. Do not spiral into despair. Hang tough. We’re in it together. We’ll get through it. Together.

He never had the money to pay for the ballroom. It was always a scam. We were always going to have to pay for it. They were just waiting for the right moment to hit us with the bill. This is now the time.

wheres all the real news? Im tired if hearing about Kash Patel's girlfriend, ballrooms, and Erika Kirk's face. Where's the news telling us what's going to be done about people not being able to afford groceries?

Everywhere you look, Trump, his family members, his donors, his political supporters & his cronies are looting the US treasury, getting paid by foreign entities for policy favors, & getting no bid contracts. Criminal cases are dropped and convictions pardoned. The US govt is an ongoing crime scene.

🎯🎯

We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime. Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings. Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks. With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

First Canada Then Australia Then South Korea Now Hungary Next — America Fascism is failing - democracy is winning

What a f*cking waste of lives and money. 😠

If you think this is exhausting, imagine being Iranian.

Either (1) a humiliating defeat, leaving America in a weaker geopolitical position and Iran a stronger one, or (2) a brief pause, as incompatible narratives and demands lead to more shooting. No matter what, it’s one of the stupidest, most unnecessary, most harmful US foreign policy choices ever.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

As an American, there are always disappointments to register and arguments to engage; amid the chaos of our battered, monied attempt at self-governance, dissent is constant. But this feeling of being utterly ashamed of America and embarrassed to the core by its president is new, raw and unnerving.

it speaks to the criminal nature of Trump 2.0 that nobody close to him is ever actually fired because it's too risky for them to be fully on the outside. Instead, they get reassigned to cushy fake jobs to keep them onside.

WATCH: The White House took down this video, but we still have it. Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

Trump has denied most disaster aid requests from Democratic-led states.

I like that the stock market going down by a bunch is called a “correction” like it is good this is happening, we have learned from our drunken, profligate ways of investing in a company retirement plan

absolutely incredible. Trump might have done more damage to American imperial power than anyone ... ever?

Yesterday, the most corrupt regime of our lifetime orchestrated a massive market manipulation scheme. Insane bets were placed minutes BEFORE Trump’s false claim of negotiations with Iran, raking in billions. Mainstream media and the SEC will largely ignore it.

Oh. So they want Obama’s nuclear deal minus Obama’s signature. Got it.

US Treasury Sec Scott Bessent’s decision to lift sanctions on Iranian oil at sea shows just how badly Trump’s war has failed. Iran will get $14 billion from the deal, the first time the US is buying Iranian oil since 1996. Trump’s Omnishambles: lives lost, billions wasted, now he’s paying Iran.

So when he bragged about grabbing women by the pussy, you were cool with that? When he made fun of a handicapped reporter, you were cool with that? When he had a mob attack the capital to steal the election, you were cool with that? But now gas is expensive so you regret your vote? Yeah?

Iran is losing so bad they shot 2 F35s, depleted US defenses in 2 weeks, have dozens of nations trying to negotiate with them on the side, are dictating who does or doesn’t pass the strait of Hormuz, are holding the global oil trade hostage, and the US eased sanctions on them.

Least aware religious fanatic I’ve ever seen.

A year ago we were supposed to be getting $2,000 rebate checks, DOGE was going to find $2 trillion in waste to balance the budget, we were going to pay no income taxes because tariffs would pay for everything, gas and home electric bills would be cut in half, and no new wars.

The costs of supporting Israel’s war on Iran: - Dead American soldiers - Dead elementary schoolgirls - Over $1 Billion/day for combat ops - Soaring gas prices - Tanking markets - Betrayed GCC allies - Another constitutional crisis …and growing.

sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this

This. Every damn bit of it.

JFC, cut that shit in half and you’ve eradicated hunger, provided healthcare for all and made education free for all Americans. What the fuck are we doing?

Stephen Miller is never gonna be able to solve his average-guy-from-Camden-New-Jersey-who-has-never-protested-but-just-saw-ICE-hurt-children problem. That's not solvable for him
