Scott Bessent: "Someone, maybe your parents for their retirement have bought 5, 10, 12 homes." He's completely out of touch with reality. Who among us hasn't bought an extra dozen homes? This cabinet is filled with billionaires who are incapable of understanding the working poor and middle class.

It’s Penguin Awareness Day which seems like a great excuse to post the greatest ever Wikipedia edit.

I learned that you can’t own land in Greenland. Interesting.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

DOINKS.

You decide which is worse: that these people are this stupid, or that they think you are.

Europe: we reject the sentiment that… Heard Island Military: “loads ammo”

• ICE agents get additional rewards based on their arrests. • Those rewards count even if the person is RELEASED without charges. This proves ICE has an incentive to pick up American citizens and then release them without charges. Cannot understate how much this agency needs a complete overhaul.

“I get the Peace Prize or a country near the Prize-giving country gets it” is a very normal foreign policy, relieved at least that the existential threat of student loan forgiveness was avoided.

Another Kavanaugh stop. Or in this case a violent kidnapping.

Reminds me of one of my favorite memes:

Man, I do not want the return of Patriots Fans

the New England Patriots have the absolute biggest Quarterback Coat in the NFL. other teams have tried to make one as big and they just can't. honestly might be the key to their dynasty

Being required to present proof of citizenship to someone not required to present proof they're actually law enforcement is one hell of a dichotomy

ronald fucking reagan was able to pass the IRCA in 1986 that ultimately legalized 2.7 million undocumented persons as permanent residents! aim for something better than ronald fucking reagan!

I think we can all root for this.

hell yeah

STAR TREK HAS GONE WOKE! SESAME STREET HAS GONE WOKE! STAR WARS HAS GONE WOKE! RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE HAS GONE WOKE! Nothing will ever be funnier to me than these dipshits getting mad about shit that’s been “woke” since it’s been in existence.

"Kavanaugh stops" have quickly expanded to become "Kavanaugh body tackles" and other forms of "Kavanaugh assaults." Sadly, the odds are very high that there will be soon be "Kavanaugh summary executions" of Americans whom ICE agents decide aren't Americans.

ICE isn’t making rare mistakes. This is the point. When an agency can grab people first and sort out rights later, if they bother at all, everyone is at risk. Citizen or not.

Oh boy, how many people using #nzpol fit this definition i do not even know.

It really sucks being a Nordic model social democrat right now, more than usual. Outside of that (proven to work and improve life in almost all ways) ideology not having much electoral representation, I keep having to say "I'm for big government spending and high taxes, but not like this"

The last 2/3 movies my family has watched earned a “yay” from all who watched: Hook, Knives Out 3, Beetlejuice.

If you punch a bully in the mouth, he backs down. If you cower and try to pretend things are ok, he’ll keep taking your lunch money. Just in case anyone needs to hear this.

"A young child with measles landed in a Pennsylvania airport and traveled through Maryland, D.C. and Virginia last week." wtop.com/local/2026/0...

"And while I can joke about my Board of Holistic Gynecology or Dr. Rand Paul setting up the National Board of Ophthalmology to avoid the woke mind virus, how is public to know that either of these medical boards is a joke?" A 😲 read by @drjengunter.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/vajenda/...

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

Actually this *is* the future liberals want, the fact it's sending Stephen Miller into conniptions is just a side benefit

"We have checked our inventory thoroughly, and we no longer have any shits left to give. We only had a small amount of shits left at the end of last year, and now we’ve found that the most recent news cycles have completely emptied us out." www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/faq...

A family from South Carolina brought their measles infections to airports, ferries and various locations in Washington state. The health department says that they didn’t know they had measles. But this is why unvaccinated people are a danger to communities, not just themselves.

This exchanged occurred during a White House presser where Karoline Leavitt gave the first question to Riley Gaines, the disgraced Olympic swimmer who launched her career as a bigoted MAGA mouthpiece and two bit podcaster simply because she tied for fifth place with a transgender woman.

Death of Expertise. That is his real goal.

god forbid a girl be both whimsical and full of rage

The Nobel Prize museum in Oslo subtweeting the fuck out of Trump today.

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

I hear what you’re saying, Frey, you don’t have enough men to stop ICE. Sounds like a good reason to ask Walz to mobilize the National Guard.

There’s always money, it’s just that we make political choices about where it goes and for what purpose.

ICE officers are publicly stating that Renee Good was killed not because an officer was threatened but because they were made at her for not instantly following every order issued. The new ICE threat to protestors is: "Have you not learned? This is why we killed that lesbian bitch."

⚠️ I think there's been far too little attention paid to what RFK Jr's overarching plan is: End science-based, evidence-based approaches to reducing illness, suffering, & death (e.g., vaccination, fluoridation of water) and replace them with bogus, unproven, kooky approaches (beef tallow, chelation)

Last night with no warning, RFK Jr. cancelled up to $2 billion in funding for mental health and substance abuse research and programs administered through SAMHSA. He and his minions did so because “they no longer believe the defunded programs align with the Trump administration's priorities”.

People didn't take that Access Hollywood tape seriously and now Trump is doing it globally

In one study of national-level volleyball players, athletic trans women athletes performed similarly to women (and below men) across multiple physical metrics. doi.org/10.1136/bjsp...

I am never forgiving anyone who voted this into existence. I don’t care if this is what you wished for or if you didn’t believe it would happen despite us telling you it would. You allowed the murder and maiming of US citizens and immigrants because you didn’t want the black lady in office.
