Trump in 2011: "If there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president of the United States. He's the only who has to get people together!"

Nope, not mentally ill. Just evil.

COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time? BERNIE SANDERS: Damn right

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

As Trump's White House threatens more mass firings of the federal workforce, it's simultaneously focused on building 90,000 sq. ft. ballroom straight out of the Gilded Age. He’s more concerned with projecting opulence and pomp than he is about governing. trib.al/HytfQRV

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

The same guy telling you Portland is war-ravaged, told you Mexico was going to pay for the wall and people were eating your pets in Ohio.

Donald Trump is using federal agents to stoke fear and violate constitutional rights — all with the aims of expanding his control and sending military troops to our cities. It’s unlawful and un-American. We must all stand up and speak out against fanning the flames of violence.

I am stunned by the number of people I have encountered over the past couple of weeks who believe Elon Musk has their best interests at heart.

If what they are doing is all on the up and up, why can’t we know who they are? #doge #Musk www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Must. Stop. Doom. Scrolling.

BREAKING: Senator Dick Durbin just destroyed Kash Patel for his comments calling Police officers at the Capitol on January 6th “Cowards in Uniform”. Kash Patel belongs nowhere near the FBI.

I admit that long ago I did watch The Flavor of Love and I just never imagined Flavor Flav being the best fellow to advise on appropriate decorum following a tragedy like this. But I also can hardly believe that other reality TV clown is president. Tragic and surreal.

This is what Project 2025 looks like.

This is brilliant!! 😂✊🏼

youtu.be/-FTuT8CGxKg That’s my Senator! Will she be voting yes on this clown? I don’t think so. #Hegseth #Duckworth

www.newsweek.com/steve-bannon... Oh, please do fight. I want Steve to pull out an entire handful to Elon’s hair plugs, and for Elon to pop Stevie in the nose which has always looked like it was on the verge of rupturing anyway. You start dishing dirt on each other boys, I’ll make me some popcorn🍿

Is it too much to ask for? #universalhealthcarenow

Are you paying ATTENTION, yet?! 👇

When they say “DEI hire” they mean anyone who isn’t straight white male and stale. It’s a way to make themselves feel good about not being qualified. They try to diminish the accomplishments of folks who’ve had to work twice as hard to get half as far. It exposes their insecurities.

Maybe if 🟠 wasn't on the verge of being President and the most powerful man on the planet, again, this would be funny- Instead, it's terrifying. How could anyone award this delusional monster their vote? HOW???

Settling in for an afternoon read.

Elon and Vivek are saying native born Americans are not good enough or smart enough to hire for tech companies, and Donald Trump is silent. Because he agrees with them. MAGA was never about America first.

Free speech. Um, hm. Now Donny needs to defend her, doesn’t he? Please, oh please make this the beginning of the Trump-Musk divorce! Turn it into a public extravaganza we can all enjoy.

Exactly

The only “accommodation” for his upcoming presidency should be that there is no upcoming presidency because the conviction stands!

Goddammit, I live in a fucking corn field and I’m running out of places to shop that sell things other than flannel shirts and tractor shit 🙄 yes, I already knew Amazon was evil, but they send stuff to my door… Hobby Lobby, Chick Fil A, easy to give up, but Amazon, FML!
