. The king no longer pays taxes. If there was ANY doubt that the U.S. IS NOW A FULL-BLOWN DICTATORSHIP, it’s gone now. The BIG, BEAUTIFUL FIGHT IS COMING. It’s time to prepare. Are you a COWARD or an AMERICAN…

He’s saying it outright, like he always does when he’s planning to pull some evil shit.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump wants to give these Insurrectionists your money (Credit to Bill Weir for the original video post)

“Never known for his ability to self-censor, Trump seems to have completely abandoned any sort of filter, tossing out messages from one extreme (He’s glad that Robert Mueller is dead!) to the other (actually, Trump is Jesus and shall heal the sick)” www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

“.. We spotted nine Polymarket accounts .. who made collectively $2.4 million betting almost exclusively on U.S. Military operations. .. “.. Now, here is the crazy part. 98% win rates.” @mediaite.com www.mediaite.com/media/news/6...

Republican C-SPAN caller: “It’s hard for me to say this, but I think if I can open up about it in public it might help others… I regret my support for Trump, and I should’ve known better. He’s a con man. A liar. The worst, most corrupt president we’ve ever had.”

“.. This is an insane amount of trades,” he said, adding that it looks more like something done by “a hedge fund with massive algo trades” that buys and shorts securities than a personal account. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

THANK YOU David Letterman & Stephen Colbert for a lifetime of smart satire, laughs, speaking truth to power & sending us to bed with a smile on our collective faces. You will be missed. 🙏 #EndOfAnEra

Scott MacFarlane on the FBI raid of Sen. Lucas’s home and office: There are going to be questions raised about how Fox News was there as the raid was undertaken. That type of thing is rare.…

Sooo… nothing has changed then? And we have achieved… what, exactly? Other than ostracizing our allies, killing civilians and losing soldiers, and costing ourselves many billions while costs skyrocket here at home? 🤷🏼

horrible. this country’s turn away from science based medicine in the name of “wellness” is killing children and will kill a lot more. www.propublica.org/article/more...

Scary, scary stuff

Spirit specifically cited why they couldn’t stay in business: skyrocketing fuel costs due to Trump’s war. And the Trump admin is still trying to blame Biden for everything?! It’s May 2026. Trump was the “I’ll make everything cheaper on day 1” guy. The “no new wars” guy. Own your actions.

Rick Scott’s net worth is $515 million.

King Charles aware of America's history,highlighting dangers of climate change, lack of funding for science and the importance of American influence around the world sobering. Whether the royals offend you, at least he sounds smart and aware of the world's dangers

He hates comedy because it speaks truth to power & a malignant narcissist can't handle that. Period. End of story. With many thanks to: @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social @colbertlateshow.bsky.social @latenightseth.bsky.social @thedailyshow.com 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

He said taxpayers wouldn’t pay for the ballroom. He lied. This isn’t about national security, it’s about filling the un-fillable hole in his unmatched ego, a vanity project, and anyone who tells you otherwise thinks you are a fool.

Hakeem Jeffries responds to Karoline Leavitt: She wants to lecture us about civility? Get lost. Clean up your own house before you have anything to say to us.

CONTEXT: “We’ve had more mass shootings this year than there have been days of the year” Rep Mike Thompson (D-CA), a veteran U.S. Representative who has long pressed for gun violence control legislation

I’m listening to seasoned reporters talk about how frightened they were during the shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner last night and imagining how much worse it is for America’s children. If there’s ever been a time to pass sensible gun control laws, it’s now.

New Yorker cartoon re: coorespondance dinner threat from prez not shooter.

every few months, americans are asked to resume their banquet and pretend a shooting didn't just happen

Watching the Yankee game and there’s been no mention of the “shooting” at the WHCD. I don’t know, but back in the day an attempted Presidential assassination would warrant at least a comment

Is there someone dead in the lobby or is there someone in custody? Was the person armed or not? Did he make it into the ballroom or not? Usually there should be a pretty wide grace period on finding this out, but there are literally hundreds of reporters in the room and nobody knows shit.

“It’s inconceivable to me that law enforcement would recommend the program continue.” Andy McCabe on CNN.

A scary moment like this shooting should be an opportunity to take a deep breath and try to calm down the rhetoric, but MAGA is already using it to attack their political enemies. Same thing they did with the Kirk and Hortman assassinations. No shame.

It’s not hard to understand. Maxwell is blackmailing Trump and Melania by threatening to release her discovery files. Trump has to pardon her. He’s asked republicans in congress to provide him an excuse to do so. (This is all speculation on my part. But it seems pretty obvious.)

The automatic draft registration hits different now, doesn’t?

So crazy

The Onion has successfully bought InfoWars. Happy 4/20. 😂

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.

Relieved they’re trying to manage his crazy…but also concerned they have to manage his crazy.

Haha 🤣

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

“All we have to fear, is fear itself” “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall” “What the hell is a corner store?” Great Presidential quotes of our time

Hungary just elected a new PM who wasted zero time — he shut down state propaganda, called out the corrupt officials by name, and started the reckoning on day one. It made me want to write down exactly what that should look like here. So I did. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Was not expecting this. Gonzales will also resign from Congress.

Swalwell has announced his resignation from Congress. It’s impossible not to ask why Texas Republican Tony Gonzales hasn’t done the same. And why the GOP doesn’t insist the Epstein files, which repeatedly mention the head of their party, be fully released.

Hey Rep. Tony Gonzales, what’s the delay?

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

The Pope lifts his voice as part of a higher calling - one centered on peace and the preservation of human life.
