He is certainly trying to make it as hard as possible to justify paying federal taxes, as those taxes will soon be simply contributions to his political slush fund in all but name

Imagine Obama ordering Mississippians to vote like he tells them to or he will cut off funding to the state A civil war begins that day, right?

Trying to understand how it’s legal for a POTUS to tell voters he’ll ensure their state receives funding if they vote like he tells them to while promising they won’t receive the said funding if they disobey his orders on who to vote for Thought we fought a revolution over this?

It's not an arena. It's called "The Claw." And the fact that Donald Trump wants a giant claw painted in stars and stripes sitting in front of the People's House forever is exactly the metaphor you think it is.

Oh for gods sake. I’ll never understand how a group of 30M people will never abandon him and how 47M other people were conned into voting for him. That’s a stain on America that’ll be there for generations.

His legacy.

This cartoon isn't an exaggeration—not even 1% an exaggeration. Weeks ago it seemed this far-right Supreme Court would still block any map intentionally authored to be racist. We just learned that that's no longer true. We have reentered Jim Crow, and it's a national disgrace.

Hot take but we don't actually have to do this "Pol Pot's second cousin makes a mean hot pot" is not the sort of journalism America needs at the point of its permanent collapse into autocracy

We're days away from Trump suggesting Vance and Rubio fight in The Claw for the 2028 nom After the inevitable double TKO he'll announce Don Jr. was his political heir all along and he just wanted to see the two biggest toadies in America bloody each other, also that he's never leaving office anyway

Graham Platner is an extremely imperfect person and candidate, but the corporate media feeding frenzy that's emerged to try to sink him as grotesque. I know this because I've done a deep dive on his past and therefore know how many claims being casually bandied about are false.

The United States has imposed sanctions on Cuba’s President Miguel Díaz-Canel, along with four other individuals, according to a filing Thursday on the U.S. Treasury Department website.

MacFarlane: We're seeing this unhinged unspooled name calling, often misogynistic, often racist stuff emanating from Washington. 60 minutes would not platform it without the proper scrutiny. You lose that and you lose one of the few things that exist that don't sane wash

More than half of the publicly identified donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months. Yes, that's billion with a "B." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

How many have died? www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Anyone blithely comparing Paxton and Platner has done no research on the life of either man or the accusations they face. These men have lived wildly different lives, engaged in very different behavior, and face dramatically different allegations. This flattening of the facts gets clicks—that's all.

Yup. White people are being discriminated against. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

As most of you know, Hounds is a years-old project to arrange and instrumentalize award-winning poems that I wrote and published in books between 1998 and the present. Hounds tracks have already charted in seven counties, including the United States. Hope you’ll check out the project on streaming!

"Expatriate Russian journalist and YouTuber Michael Nacke says that there is now 'a whole constellation of fairly popular [pro-war bloggers] who explain at some length why Russia isn’t winning, no matter what Putin may say.'"

This summer, Hounds is releasing an album per week. Yes, really. Some are new albums, some compilations, some odds and ends. This week’s release is Volume 1 of the Hounds “EP Collection.” Streaming services made it hard for folks to find Hounds EPs; this will help.

Reality

This woman should be in prison right now, and isn’t only because of a miscarriage of justice and a cowardly Democratic governor repeatedly being threatened with retribution by the POTUS—a gangster. This grotesque low drama would be more fitting in a tinpot dictatorship, which arguably we nearly are.

“The 15-day simulation saw Anthropic’s Claude establish a democracy with zero crime, with everybody surviving.” So Musk, who just wants to help, will now shutter xAI and back Anthropic, right? No—of course not. Musk wants to *destroy* all other AI companies. Because he’s evil.

Hey, remember when I said Grok was the worst AI by far, people who cite it on Twitter only do so because it’ll foreseeably be wrong in a direction they like, and Elon Musk is a grifting piece of shit and dangerous to America? This breaking news has it all!

I shall be parading around town in my worst peasant costumery, dirging out for the next month or so in honor of all trump’s destruction and madness.

Your AMERICA 250 headliner, ladies and gentlemen!

Welp there’s no unseeing this

Ruben Gallego on Graham Platner:

We may not survive Trump.

There are allegations of long term brain damage by alcohol poisoning. And 3). If his boss sez give my J6 pal a cushy job bc I owe him he can’t say no if he wants his own cushy job and we know DJT wants to reward his pals from J6. Maybe just me, but Hexhead is not exactly his own man.

Hiring the epitome of a terrorist to counterterrorism? on Brand

Because of course Citadel cadets were at January 6th.

Be fair. Who has more experience with domestic terrorism than J6ers?

Cmon, they have first hand terrorism experience

I don’t think the fact that January 6 terrorists are being given top secret clearances matters as much as the fact that the Commander-in-Chief of the US military is also Commander-in-Chief of the January 6 terrorists. bsky.app/profile/tyle...

Seems like more evidence the Confederacy has taken over as more and more positions are given to them. I'm sure it'll be fine though, right? Jeffries doesn't seem interested in removing the president, and Schumer worries & works for a foreign country.

*Of course* the Bezos Posts has to say in the FIRST SENTENCE that the poor, innocent boy regretted his small tiny mistake

I mean, this is how you assemble your personal army 🤷🏻‍♀️

They’re building an apparatus that answers only to them. The coup is ongoing.

So, let's talk about the Citadel. bsky.app/profile/airb...

This is also how he suborns the military for his attempted coup

this is the kind of merit that pete hegseth has brought to the department of defense

Wow. A convicted Jan. 6 Capitol rioter has been hired to work in a Pentagon office that handles classified military information. Elias Irizarry was hired to work in the DOD’s Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict, and internal alarms are going off. www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

June 14th: I’m telling you, Volga Birthday Dirge. Everybody dressed as peasants, chanting, rattling bones, banging pans to the beat. “Bring out your dead” carts in tow. It’ll be so perfect. Make my dreams come true. Make this happen. Trump will go nuts for it. youtu.be/I7RsNauM3uI?...

FBI, CIA & Justice depts have destroyed them all by now. Bessent has destroyed all the financial records in the Treasury Dept by now. All of them have shredded every ounce of evidence to protect their pedophile king.

There have to be videos somewhere too. I cannot believe, from the statements that there was a video room in his house, per Lutnick among others, that there aren’t gigabytes of video.

The LAW was to turn over ALL Epstein related files to Congress, unredacted.

Disgraceful. Someday, Todd Blanche will likely receive a pardon from his client, the Rapist, yet he can still be held accountable by the State Bar(s) where he is licensed to practice law.

Because you're asking all the right questions, Madeline! They don't want you to keep going and out Trump as a pedophile!

a file is not a document. one single file could have thousands of pages... there are 3 million FILES that are being hidden. The other 10 million files were destroyed when Donald and Bill Barr removed Epstein from the planet. (allegedly)

"The gentlelady will respect the conspiracy."
