Republicans in April 2026: Why is GDP growth poor: Biden Why is the debt exploding: Biden Why is inflation up: Biden Why is gas so high? Biden Why are we at war with Iran: Obama Why are groceries high? Biden Why are you talking about a $1.5T military budget: Biden

The midterm gerrymandering war and the Iran war alike show Trump's inability to imagine that the people he's picking fights with have any agency, any ability to respond. He loves his "you don't have the cards" metaphor but he's amazingly terrible at actually thinking about whether they do.

WHOA. In less than 12 hours, tens of thousands of Americans have helped launch GTFOice.org. People don’t want warehouse prison camps in their communities. Amazing to see the outpouring of defiance.

Experts say it’s highly unusual for the White House to tell agents to give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation, as it did with the Tates. “I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” an ex-DHS official said.

FBI began investigating @nytimes.com reporter Elizabeth Williamson after she wrote about Patel using bureau personnel to provide his girlfriend with security and transportation. DOJ officials were concerned it was retaliation and found no legal basis to proceed. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/u...

⚠️ It could take six months AFTER the Iran War ends to clear mines from Strait of Hormuz, per Pentagon. This timeline means the war’s economic impact could extend late into this year and beyond. Reporting by WaPo:

BIPARTISAN FORMER WHITE HOUSE ETHICS OFFICIALS CONDEMN RETALIATORY PROSECUTION OF SPLC @democracydefendersfund.org statement 👇🏼

Trump only looks to hire the most qualified people for important jobs like protecting the American people from terrorist attacks.

That’s pretty much the cult line. All he’s got left are people who will drink the kool-aid if the order was posted on Truth Social.

Ossoff: "The financial entanglement, the way UAE money, Emirati money has compromised this WH is astonishing. It may be one of the most significant scandals in US history. Who are Trump's 2 chief negotiators? Kushner & Witkoff. The people doing diplomacy are at the same time on personal business."

Burchett is right: the most DC thing ever *is* a member of Congress blaming the city for something he and his colleagues did themselves.

Really psyched to have a guy in charge of the Navy who…***checks notes***…has strong opinions on witches. Unrelated, is there some kind of sanity-resistant membrane around this administration.

That’s our money. Money that we paid into the treasury.

Journalists who attend the White House Correspondents' Dinner to party with Trump, Hegseth, Carr etc. are telling the regime that it's perfectly OK if they sic the FBI on them for doing their jobs.

This guy was installed by president trump

I think I’m right

This is predictable, but I'll say this: My worries about the effectiveness of Trump's B.S. have dropped considerably. His poll numbers are in the toilet and it seems, even among some MAGA folks, his act has worn thin. Still plenty to worry about, but I think most are just tired of his crap. 🙏

COONS: Why is it a good idea to relieve sanctions on Iranian and Russian oil? BESSENT: The $14 billion number is a DNC talking point COONS: I am not the DNC. I'm the senator from Delaware

VAN HOLLEN: You said you disputed some of my facts. Do you dispute that Sheikh Tahnoon through his company invested $500m in World Liberty Financial just before the inauguration? LUTNICK: I'm not aware of that VAN HOLLEN: Seriously? It's been so widely reported

whoa this is unhinged shocked not shocked anyone in trump land thought it was a good idea to put this guy in front of a microphone. wow.

Breaking: Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel will lead a government delegation to Canada to promote U.S. spirits consumption.

HASSAN: Does the president know about your self-promoting videos using official HHS resources? RFK Jr: I didn't know about a number of those videos. I just happened to not see them. HASSAN: So you don't know how your own team is managing official resources?

WARREN: So those massive discounts-- RFK Jr: Massive. 600 percent WARREN: 600 percent! They can pay hundreds of dollars on TrumpRx or they can get it for $12 as Costco

When you don’t know you’re being filmed:

TINA SMITH: Secretary Kennedy, a trillion dollars in cuts according to the CBO, 7 million people losing their health insurance because of the Trump administration. That's not debatable RFK Jr: There is nobody legally enrolled in Medicaid who is losing coverage SMITH: That is just not true!

The worst human beings in the country should not be running the country.

This is shameful

"Court documents show Trump knew he was going to tear down the East Wing at least two months before doing so, but he never told the public."

I shit you not, Trump is posting about The Apprentice

The key to success here was that he identified and targeted the most gullible group of people on planet earth - American MAGA.

If Republicans could just run the government competently while they control the presidency, house and senate, they wouldn’t have to worry about gerrymandering, SAVE Act, or any other efforts to rig the midterms. Maybe the Iran War will save them since voters love it so much.

Are the women back there somewhere? Yes, I think I see them.

3-5 days, everyone. So the Iranians can regroup.

The Republican Congress.

Best ONN in months at least.

BREAKING: Republicans, furious at Democrats for doing thing they wanted to do but couldn’t do, now insist thing they wanted to do is un-American

Cf. the Bezos Post, "Republicans gerrymandering in Texas is fine, actually" b/w "Democrats gerrymandering in Virginia is a threat to democracy"

I’m sure Trump has put the US in a very strong bargaining position by issuing two ultimatums with hard deadlines only to back down both times after Iran called his bluff. 4-D chess from the cult leader.

This is what caused Trump’s meltdown tonight.

I applaud Pete Hegseth for doing away with the U.S. military's woke flu-vaccine mandate. TRUE warfighters know their lethality is only ENHANCED by explosive diarrhea. Libs will never understand that a fever is just God warming your body for the battle ahead.

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer. Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul. Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

Impeachment, not the 25th. He is unfit for office, but his problems now are because he has surrounded himself with enablers and thinks he has no restrictions or consequences.

Warsh claimed that the Wall Street Journal had bad sources. Their source was Donald Trump himself. Either Trump lied to the Journal or Warsh just committed perjury.

PATTY MURRAY: What happened to childcare in this budget? RFK Jr: Ok, let's talk about childcare then instead of the war MURRAY: Just so it's clear, the president is requesting $1.5t in defense which cuts our non-defense incredibly RFK Jr: It's not my department

Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”

"Low-income households will get [free] plug-in solar panels to cut their energy bills, the Government has announced." This is how you do a just transition. inews.co.uk/news/politic...
