This whole hoo-ha on the front lawn is because when he goes to public sporting events he gets booed out of the stadium. So true to form, he creates, at taxpayer expense mind you, an “alternative sports event” where everyone is cheering him so he can brag that the country loves him.

“Can you bring my passport?” My son called me panicked as ICE detained people outside his Baltimore City public school. It’s forever changed him — and me, too. | Column by Leslie Gray Streeter buff.ly/kngddS3

ICE detained people at my kid's school today, shaking him so much that he begged me to bring him home, but to bring his passport so he could prove he's an American. They are coming for us all. And now my kid knows. I hate this. www.thebanner.com/opinion/colu...

Haaaaaahahahahaha

Dirty dozen. Acrylic gouache on Casson mixed media art board.

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

This tracks.

Straight-up admitting it’s all for show. Unbelievable stuff.

Harriet Clark’s début novel traces Clark’s experience as the daughter of an activist that was imprisoned while she was 11 months old. With her novelistic prowess, the story “shifts away from singular autobiography toward singular emblem,” James Wood writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/nCzUSo

This is a soon to be shuttered boondoggle that squandered hundreds of millions of dollars and simultaneously engaged in human rights violations. In a functioning political system, it would be a massive scandal.

How fun for everybody. At least the oil companies, credit card companies, and the banks behind them are happy. Guess the rest of us can go fuck ourselves?

Look, I fucking get it: gas prices are fucked up. But good God, that’s not among in the top 20 ways he’s fucking up the country.

The Met Gala is the new Bradley-Martin Ball of 1897. In the midst of Gilded Age, workers faced poverty & unemployment. New York elites held a lavish costume party, spending $400,000 (=9 million) to dress as kings and queens. I hope Mamdani also raises taxes as happened in the wake of that ball.

From gardening in food deserts to nurturing sick New Yorkers, this year’s Mayoral Service Recognition Ceremony honorees are truly inspiring. To Eric Ragone, Brittany Leavitt, Angria Messam, Abby MacLean-Pochiraju, Iman Mergen, Mutashma Shaaf, Aalia Rehman, Nafisa Qadri, & Huda Ali: Thank you.

The special services soldier appears not to have understood that insider betting on Polymarket and similar fora is reserved as a privilege for members of the president's family and immediate entourage. abcnews.com/US/doj-arres...

Do we really have a constitutional republic, with elected representatives making decisions on tax and spend issues, when an imperial president can just take our money and buy an airline? We don’t have a govt functioning with the consent of the governed - we have one man run amok.

90,000 views on the accusation. 11,000 on the oopsie.

This article is from last year. RFK expects us to forget about it. As with COVID we are watching attempts to rewrite history in front of us.

Anyone who shows up for this travesty is knowingly choosing to act as a prop for authoritarian kabuki because they’re too cowardly or amoral to pass up vapid schmoozing and free drinks. They deserve your contempt, and possibly a few pieces of rotting produce.

I mean. They’d be innocent even if they WERE related, because that’s not how guilt works.

Trump is reported close to a "deal" with himself under which US taxpayers would pay him $10 billion. I served in multiple communist and authoritarian dictatorships, but I never witnessed corruption on this scale or this blatant.

What if we just cleared Congress of all the abusers and sex pests this week what is stopping us who cares what party they are in

Mexico—a nation with 1/17th GDP of USA—is rolling out universal healthcare to its 130M citizens. Starting April 13, Mexicans 85+ will have access to universal healthcare. By Jan 2027, Mexico will expand universal healthcare to all people, with full coverage of drugs, lab tests, etc by 2030. 1/2

Oh.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has signed a decree establishing Universal Healthcare for all Mexican citizens. The United States could’ve had this, but people chose economic collapse, cruelty and death instead. I’ll never regret voting for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris.

Here he is tonight. Working hard to end his War in Iran and make life more affordable for Americans like he promised.

Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.

How the fuck is the president and Secretary of State at a UFC fight in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart. And I know that MFer isn’t going to try to play golf tomorrow too.

Came see STEALING CARS tonight at the Maryland Film Fest. A ticket also grants you access to a pre-screening reception starting at 8:30! mdff2026.eventive.org/schedule/bri...

Israel continues to commit War Crimes against Lebanon, assassinating journalists, destroying 600,000 homes, indiscriminately bombing civilian areas killing hundreds. No sanctions, no nothing, Europe just watches and says Netanyahu be a bit less evil.

Inflation now up to 3.3% and climbing Unemployment rate up to 4.1% and climbing Federal deficit at 1.7 TRILLION And A federal debt of $39 TRILLION Are we great yet?

To recap: •Just 8% of Americans support Dark PAC money in politics •Just 14% of Democrats have a positive view of Israel •Just 28% of Democrats have a positive view of Democratic Party So—Establishment Dems attacked a streamer while DNC rejected a resolution to condem pro-Israel AIPAC in politics.🤦🏽‍♂️

. Breaking: the President is posting things on social media that would get normal Americans banned or arrested. This is not normal. .

David Duchovny played a transgender woman, Denise, on Twin Peaks in 1990 and when greeting Cooper, the show's protagonist, she says, "I prefer Denise, if you don't mind" and Cooper responds with "OK" and her identity is settled within a couple seconds and was a non-issue, 36 years ago.

The same geniuses who think Trump, who dodged the draft five times, knows how to win a war also think Trump, who declared bankruptcy six times, knows how to run the economy. That's what Trump Derangement Syndrome actually looks like.

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY! The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

Including cancer research for kids. Total dirt bags.

I wish science could explain what’s happening.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress beforehand, or our allies, or coherently explain to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

Morally, legally, economically the war on Iran is disastrous and the disaster goes on for years no matter what happens now. But what cannot be overstated is that in pure national security terms it is also an unmitigated catastrophe.

Easter Weekend at Bernies

We spent an entire cycle with Democrats having to defend Obama’s Christian faith. Trump threatens war crimes on Easter.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

The pope is tweeting like a wide receiver. cc: @dennycarter.bsky.social
