How do these people put pants on in the morning?

Remember how *hysterical* Republicans got when Obama bowed to the Emperor of Japan in 2009? Well, here is Trump bowing before the President of China—and not a peep from the MAGA outrage machine.

Sen Bill Cassidy, the main reason we have RFK Jr, lost his primary. No tears for him. And yet, LA is going to get someone worse.

"As they rushed into his apartment...he felt the jaws of a large dog biting into his ankle, knocking him to the floor. He screamed as the dog tore the flesh from his thighs, hip and wrist. Down the hall, agents took a mother and her 16-yr-old son at gunpoint..." www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Trump's insecure and childish inability to ever admit to making a mistake is really going to catch up with him on this very public, obvious mistake. He's making possibly the worst verbal flub in American presidential history even worse by stamping his little feet in foolish defiance.

The Byrd Rule: Senate procedure that prevents non-budgetary, "extraneous" provisions from being tucked into budget reconciliation bills. Because reconciliation packages bypass the 60-vote filibuster, the rule ensures it isn't used to sneak controversial policy changes through on a simple majority.

My governor has gone full Fetterman, and we have no idea why. We sane people in Colorado would like to apologize for believing this asshole would stick to his beliefs after elected. But now he's leaving so his true colors are showing.🤷‍♂️ Never go full Fetterman...

Cassidy voted for RFK Jr.; by doing so, harmed American — if not global — public health for decades; and still was opposed by Trump for once every few months actually remembering that he was in a branch of government independent of Trump. Do your job, or lose your legacy and your job.

There it is. The Senate parliamentarian rules the $1 billion for Trump's ballroom in the GOP's budget reconciliation bill violates the rules + is subject to 60 votes vs 51. Via budget committee Dems:

You're entitled to your own opinion. You're NOT entitled to your own facts. #BelieveTheScience What he said 💯 👇 👇 👇

Breaking: The Senate Parliamentarian just advised that the $1 billion for Trump's ballroom will be subject to a 60-vote threshold if it remains in Republicans' bill.

And the republican co-conspirators are still sitting on their hands l.smartnews.com/p-7IHdZ7Ik/A...

Moderates don't exist. The biggest myth of American politics. People are almost always firmly entrenched in one camp. Turnout wins and appealing to the fake middle loses your base and gains nothing.

It is exhausting trying to explain to the purists that the Democrats do not have to win MAGA voters in rural red states. They just have to peel off single-digit changes among indies, and get some of their own centrist voters to come back to the fold.

Update: Louisiana voters tonight have rejected all five constitutional amendments that were on the ballot today; they were there with the support of the GOP legislature and Gov. Landry.

okay the Amtrak kinda fucks tho trains!

Turns out renewable energy got cheap fast and some countries actually did act. So the absolute doomsday end of the projection range got updated. The new projections still show roughly 3 degrees Celsius of warming by 2100.

Scientists who build climate models recently retired their most extreme worst-case scenario (called RCP8.5) because it assumed coal use would explode and no clean energy policies would ever be enacted.

Trump posted that the UN just admitted climate change projections were “WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!” and declared victory over what he called 15 years of Democratic fearmongering. He has no idea what he’s talking about.

Here’s bill maher saying if you’re horrified by what Israel is doing you’re anti-Semitic— which is, of course, nonsense. He even gets crickets 🦗 🦗 from the audience he forces to laugh at his terrible jokes. It is way past time to turn this guy off, folks. @HBO

The median income in the U.S. was $62,608 in 2025. These people are making almost 3x what an average family makes. Don't like the pay, don't run for office.

Aright fuck it who wants to go halfsies on some light piracy?

Someone ask Patel, point blank, if he thinks he's a Troop

Trump is spreading misinformation. Here is what happened a vendor screwed up and printed some Maryland mail-in ballots with the wrong party listed. Election officials caught it, told the public, and said they’d resend ballots to everyone who requested one (all 500,000 of them) just to be safe.

Trump posted this morning that Maryland just “revealed 500,000 Fake Mail-In Ballots” and is now demanding Congress jam the SAVE America Act into a housing bill and a surveillance bill to get it passed.

The rank and file at the FBI believe she's working for the Israelis.

Oh. Yay.

Well this is horrific.

It’s really hard to describe how insane this story is. Of course Patel went snorkeling over the USS Arizona - that’s what happens when you put an irreverent internet troll in charge of a government agency. Disrespectful assclown.

Honest to god do not understand who has the energy for this type of shit.

Justice Samuel Alito has fossil fuel stocks making up nearly a quarter of his personal investment portfolio. And he just voted to put a major climate accountability case on the Supreme Court’s docket after recusing himself from virtually identical cases for the exact same reason.

Can a presidential pardon be voided if it was bought with a bribe? Democrats just launched a sweeping investigation into Trump's pardons to find out—and they are demanding the financial receipts. This could make history. Read what happens next: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/everything...

This guy lecturing Christopher Nolan on art was in a movie called “Lady Ballers,” a film about a basketball coach winning dominating a women’s league by putting a bunch of white dudes in wigs It stars Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens, Clay Travis, Michael Knowles, and Matt Walsh Now THAT is art

Don't all these guys love Snyder's 300 which makes Greece look like one big Power Rangers rock quarry

These people gripe about “soCiALisM” and then cheer for DJT using the federal government to coerce and take stakes in private companies

Ask them who was President when COVID restrictions were imposed...they don't like that question one bit.

I hear a lot that it is better than Kamala...like what do people think she was going to do? I'm still not clear why Obama left these people so traumatized.

For me, the irony is that these are the same people who whined about or entirely eschewed sacrifices during the early Covid period.

Absolutely, and tell you to your face that it is an America First policy.

It's also strange which issues people pretend to care about.

It's really weird the way their minds morph around information they don't like, trying to force reality to agree with their daddy. Sometimes Trump changes his mind and they continue to argue his previous position because they haven't gotten the latest software update.

Someone was arguing to me that we should basically just do our CT/COIN strategy for Pakistan again but against the Cartels without "dumb ROE restrictions" made me want to walk into traffic. Oh and he was confident there would be no blowback to this and that it would last a year or two.

The American voter cannot be trusted with sharp objects or foreign policy. I truly hate how elitist and kinda authoritarian it sounds, but I have yet to see them prove me wrong. On Ukraine, Iran, the Caribbean, USAID, etc. all I see are insane, murderous views they think will magically work.

“This is a war grave with the same legal status as Arlington National Cemetery,” Mr. McBride [a Navy veteran and professor emeritus of history at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis] said. “Snorkeling around Arizona is as disrespectful as playing kickball on top of the graves at Arlington.”

Here is how it works. Step 1: Every handle and platform you’ve used in the last five years goes on the DS-160 form. Inactive accounts, deleted accounts doesn’t matter. Omitting an account is not a technicality. It can be treated as misrepresentation.
