If I was doing a lousy job, insecure, and in way over my head, I'd likely be up at 2:00 AM posting insane stuff.

A long read, but well worth the effort... heatherdelaneyreese.substack.com/p/the-presid...

tRump needs to be accountable now, like yesterday. I believe even conservative republicans would have believed in the rule of law, until their closests "what may it be" was used against them, and they coward to the threats.

We dyslexics navigate the pathways that work for us. We move the letters around. My father told me he knew I was dyslexic because I couldn’t tell him what the letters meant well into middle school. Now teaching for dyslexics is much more sophisticated but I never…. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/23/o...

Market manipulation tells me that the market is easily duped at the present time...

There’s always money for ICE but never money for TSA in much the same way as there’s always money for war but never money to feed the poor.

Every time Trump asks questions he sounds like the kid who was asked to get up before the class to give his prepared book report, when he had prepared nothing and never read the book... so he's just trying to bullshit his way through making up stuff and sounding as vague as he can. Pathetic.

The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…

In reference to the post about the death of Robert Mueller, we will say what GOP legislators won't say until maybe after the primary. It was disgusting, repulsive, childish and SO below the dignity of the office of the Presidency. Obviously written by a small, petty and insecure man.

Call me old fashioned but when someone tweets they’ve won the war it’s kinda rude for the other side to keep fighting.

I guess Tulsi Gabbard by not taking blame for imminent threat threw Trump squarely under the bus. Saying it was Trump that decides what is imminent. Thus it is Trump and Trump alone to blame for this. Okay.

King of bankruptcies has done this to us. 😢

Does the GOP really believe that there are no poor GOP voters who can't afford the documentation required to vote under the proposed SAVE Act? Also, do they believe that no GOP voters, especially the elderly, vote by mail? We think their own voters may lack the desire to jump through the hoops.

“For the first time he perceived that if you want to keep a secret you must also hide it from yourself. ” ― George Orwell, 1984

Thanks for this, @samsteindc.bsky.social. It's really hard to keep track.

Buffoon = a ridiculous but amusing person; a clown: "they are simply incompetent buffoons who have no idea what they are doing" Some are not amusing however.

“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.” ― Mother Teresa

War can be a distraction. But it doesn't always work. Especially when it magnifies other things that need "distraction."
