What’s that - AI isn’t working out as expected and you still need people? Huh. Who could have predicted?

And the craziest thing about this? That amount of money is MEANINGLESS to the folks giving it. It's totally fine to have as many billionaires and trillionaires and godzillionaires as you want. I don't care. But it's NOT fine to have people with unimaginable wealth when so many are unable to eat.

Not every person knows how to love a dog, but every dog knows how to love a person.

Wondering what side of history the US is on right now? This is a perfect illustration of why our country is declining: we are expelling people who are working hard to build prosperity and a stronger community. Throw in that they are immigrants fleeing horrors. This is not Christian. It’s stupid.

This says a LOT about how the current administration views their constant criminal activities. And 12 hours? POTUS is covering up the rape of children, and that news story has been buried. A Watergate-level story wouldn't even register except briefly by eagle-eyed watchers like @atrupar.com

I assimilated all the way to Congress and this idiot still tells me to go back where I came from.

770,000 kids like Giovanni will FEEL less fed because Trump and his corrupt Republican enablers cut their SNAP benefits. Full shouldn’t be a luxury. #RepublicansStarveChildren

as a committed centrist, it saddens me that both parties are falling captive to their extremes - the right to insurrectionist cultists who want to invade american cities, and the left to socialists who want better bus service

A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.

A coalition of faith-based groups in Greater Cleveland plans to announce more than $1.3 million in pledged bank withdrawals Thursday as part of a campaign urging Citizens Bank to end financial ties with companies that operate immigration detention centers.

This is actually true.

"I hear you're sending me a seventh prime minister"

For those still unaware, “classic Trump deal” means Trump will enrich himself while everyone around him gets screwed. And the whole thing will disintegrate like tissue paper in the rain in about 2 weeks.

We need more of this in the USA… “NYC Mayor Mandani reveals a plan to allocate $122 million to hire an additional 1,000 teachers by 2027. This must be why they say socialism is so horrible. Rather than funding continuous foreign wars, tax funds are being redirected toward our educational system.”

Happy Father's Day 🖤

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and— I said look. Look with your eyes! Oh now you’ve gone and touched it. The paint is peeling. My beautiful paint! I’ll have to call my pool guy back. Vandal! Antifa! I said look And despair Nothing but the algae remains.

You know what changes things? Women lifting up other women. Not waiting for permission. Not asking politely. Just opening doors and holding them wide. That's how power actually shifts. That's how you get a seat at every table that matters. #Pinks #ProudBlue

I did not know this. The world is burning, but never stop learning!

A few years ago, when the push to make Juneteenth a federal holiday had really started to hit the news, I asked my dad what he knew about the holiday, as a white Texan man born in 1942. He said he was aware of it as “the one day a year Black people were allowed in all the parks”

USA! USA! USA!

Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, but it is also a reminder that rights and justice are not always delivered equally or immediately. Progress has never been automatic. It has always required people willing to stand up, speak out, and push this country to live up to its ideals.

Since March, Vivek Ramaswamy has traveled to Portugal, Greece, the Bahamas, Port Clinton and Akron aboard the new private jet that he worked hard to hide ownership of. Full logs, here: www.rooster.info/p/vivek-rama...

Of course it is. That's why Trump signed it at Versailles America unconditionally surrendered to Iran

"One morning, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt walked into the Oval Office and found Trump “clutching a tube of superglue and attempting to affix gold decorations to the marble fireplace mantel." Parents of toddlers fear this scenario. Now, hide the scissors before he cuts his hair.

I love that this seems to be an actual series on BBC. At least they are owning their history.

Or if you are a billionaire and money is meaningless. But sure, let’s ignore the items that fulfill critical needs of human beings.

Elon Musk’s DOGE cut the federal government’s screwworm monitoring program, which cost $15 million. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to spend $1 billion to combat the screwworm outbreak. Never forget how destructive and downright stupid DOGE was.

That “very clear purpose” wouldn’t have been to distract from the Epstein files by chance? Trump got everything he wanted.

Epstein in 2011: “that dog that hasn’t barked is trump. [VICTIM] spent hours at my house with him”

"Grok is vital for national security" If someone made that statement even 4 years ago, they would have sounded crazy... Unlike today, where that is a "perfectly normal" position.

Stop calling Neville Trump’s contemptible DocuSign two-pager a deal. It’s not a deal. It’s literally just a memo (an MOU). For that matter, stop calling the memo “bad.” It’s not merely bad—it’s a surrender, by the United States, to the Islamic Republic of Iran. It’s a *historic disaster*.

A keynote speaker admits to using Claude to write their paper or a work colleague visibly consults ChatGPT while fielding questions in a meeting (its disproportionately men doing this so far). Understand these acts as about power: the power to refuse to meaningfully engage or listen to others.

Sooooo.... About that swamp....

This is absolutely irrational, unhinged, and, of course, all lies. Some of the most successful, athletic, and rizzful people alive are autistic. This man shouldn't be allowed within 300ft of a school, let alone be in charge of special ed in the US.

Abundance FOR WHOM?

We need to stop letting AI and billionaires decide who lives and who dies. People over profits!

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.

Maybe the dumbest bit that still seems to have purchase in American politics is “that really rich guy can’t be bought!” I assure you, his wealth is *proof* that he can be bought, despite a weird elite class of Americans who want you to believe they won their fortunes in single combat or something

These idiot racists want her to be a man because she is powerful - and that scares them. And you look like an idiot if you are afraid of a woman….
