Hard relate. Problem is, that cognitive dissonance means I then end up drawing…. Nothing. Ugh.

The FBI Director, the DC US Attorney, and the Secretary of Defense walk into a bar. Apparently like every day.

That’s the point — if we are aware of the scenarios and we are ready to mock and block, these stunts can be deterred or turned against Trump. One of them just failed hard in Hungary — because people were ready!

just looting the US treasury. as one does.

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

there’s a through line between people with AI psychosis and billionaires who surround themselves with sycophants — both result in brainmush that convinces them they’re right and everyone else is wrong

The main news this day and every day - the president of the US is dangerously deluded and mentally unfit for office. #BBCNews #r4wato #r4today

I’m so excited about this. I hope people keep starting newsrooms. There’s appetite for the truth.

I can already say with 100% confidence that the upcoming weekend wasn't long enough.

also this is almost certainly a thing—whether you connect to a VPN in Venezuela or Vermont. remember, there are (probably) lots of foreigners connecting to US based VPNs. With encrypted traffic, the NSA can claim a presumption of foreignness.

I passed a participle today. That was tense.

Who can blame whiskey Pete for loving Quentin Tarantino movies and confusing their monologues with the real bible

Didja know that TARRANT COUNTY has the best Tech in the whole country? If you are skeptical, join the club. Alex Montalvo was at the County Commissioners meeting on 4/14 and decided to completely change his allowed two minutes of public comments a month to deride what had been presented.

Hillary Clinton was right about everything. Kamala Harris was right about everything. Both would’ve been incredible Presidents and I remain proud AF to have cast my vote for them.

Make no mistake these disgusting ICE concentration camps like the one at Mesa’s airport that we just learned about is where Donald Trump and his fascist regime want to put all of us enemies of the state if they get the chance. It’s up to all of us to make sure they never get that chance! #Maddow

Every political cartoonist in the world is currently bashing their desks in frustration.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Remove. Him. From. Office.

You are right! If you want a good read( long but mind blowing) is The People’s History of the United States by Howard Zinn. Certainly not the history I learned. but eye opening from 1600s to Clinton. Then addendum thru 2020.also Project 2025 Mandate ( Heritage Foundation) these will astound u.
