It really is no mystery why conservatives like this guy. He's made a mockery of all their stated policy principles, but none of them ever had any real policy principles anyway! They see themselves in him: seething. Whiny. Endlessly aggrieved. That's the core of it all.

not much pisses me off more than for a trump voter to say they are surprised about anything that’s happening. unless you lived under a rock for the past decade there is no excuse for being surprised that he’s a lying liar.

Gavin Newsome has said his son is a fan of Charlie Kirk Andrew Tate and now Clavicular. You should probably stop running for office and spend time with your son

I just can’t imagine wanting an entire secure ballroom for one man and not wanting gun reform for every child in America.

i say we just put women in charge of everything and deport every man who thinks it’s a bad idea 💅

after spending ~20 years of my life in relationships with unsafe men everyone is suddenly like “oh shit men are not safe to be around!” and i just wish we had this information back then

The Trump-appointed chairman of the panel approving his planned fascist arch turns out to be an architect who restores palaces in Russia, lectures in Russia, and publishes in Russia: Rodney Mims Cook Jr., son of a famous GA politician, now a cartoonishly pretentious monument builder. 1/

Stephen Miller almost says that Trump is seeking a "final solution" in Iran but then catches himself

Genuinely depressing to me that your partner has to Doordash to raise money for your cancer treatment when you get old. What happens if you don't have a partner? Are we just working to pay a landlord and save up for a medical emergency when we're elderly?

someone should do it

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II. She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet. Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

If you hate Pope Leo because he is too “liberal”, I have some very bad news for you about Jesus.

A commenter notes that "Trump managed to be both Hitler and Chamberlain in the same negotiation. An unprecedented feat." 😭

@atrupar.com please tell me you can find the clip where weijia jiang says “president vance” and doesn’t correct herself live on cbs evening news just now

Seriously, what the fuck is this. This is completely deranged, and anyone who can’t say so is a coward.

A Russian drone targeted a residential district in Kharkiv on April 6, striking the top floor of an apartment block. Video: Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terehov / Telegram.

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.

Dear Christian, If you’re demanding that the Ten Commandments be put up in public schools, but you’re not holding this president or his administration accountable to a single one of them, please don’t act like you actually take them seriously.

Pam Bondi got fired. And as you can see, even this cat hated her.

UN: The Middle East crisis has lurched into its second month, prompting UN Secretary-General António Guterres to issue a stark warning on Thursday morning that the world is “on the edge of a wider war” with catastrophic global implications.

Just to recap: Russia is currently helping Iranian forces try to kill US troops. In response, Trump is… lifting sanctions on Russia and threatening to pull out of NATO, which are the #1 and #2 items on Putin’s wishlist

Let me be clear. I don’t support AIPAC. Quite the opposite. But I also have major issues with Track AIPAC. It’s a shady project.   Track AIPAC isn’t a neutral watchdog. It’s a political operation with its own PAC and a very clear agenda. 🧵

Reuters: Pope Leo said on ‌Sunday that God rejects the prayers of leaders who start wars and have "hands full of blood", in unusually forceful remarks as the Iran war entered its second month. www.reuters.com/world/pope-l...

When movies were shot on physical film, the film was measured in feet. This is why any recorded thing is now called ‘footage.'

This is Stan. He is the guardian of the stairs. It's his first day and he's a little nervous. Really hoping you don't try to pass. 12/10 (TT: stanthehotdawg)

ALERT: Professional news. Nine days after leaving CBS, I have found a new professional home: Chief Washington Correspondent and Anchor for @meidastouch.com

As a Marine platoon leader in Vietnam, Mueller was shot and later returned to lead his platoon after his recovery. He received a Bronze Star for valor, a Purple Heart, 2 Navy/Marine Commendation medals, Republican of Vietnam Cross of Valor, and numerous other medals.

In case anyone forgot how incoherent this administration’s policies are… we just removed sanctions on a nation we’re actively at war with. Oh well, at least the cowards in the GOP will have to spend the weekend trying to explain how this won’t fund the war for Iran (it will).

This is Pipsqueak. Her bed is a banana. Technically speaking it is a banana split, but either way, very a-peeling. 12/10 (IG: sassypebs)

1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.

Two weeks into the war that he started for reasons he can’t explain, the president of the United States is threatening to charge news outlets with treason for purportedly colluding with the enemy by producing coverage he dislikes. bsky.app/profile/atru...

How is the war in Iran going? Trump used a photo of a dead soldiers casket in a fundraising appeal and now he's playing golf.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From slyngstad )

Defense secretary openly states that a pro-Trump billionaire taking over a news network (following regulatory help from the administration) will result in coverage more favorable for the administration.

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast. They’ll play this in museums in future. (🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)

In the middle of a war with gas prices spiking, Trump’s main priority today is to campaign in the district against the Republican who got the Epstein files released.

Government by Twitter for Twitter.

Look at these charts. TransUnion and Experian, two of the three major credit bureaus, have started dismissing a larger share of consumer complaints without help. The timing coincides with the Trump administration’s dismantling of the CFPB. www.propublica.org/article/cred... @joeljacobs.bsky.social

2 years from now, 5 years from now, 10 years from now, and 20 years from now, Americans are going to be subject to attacks here and all over the world because of what Trump is doing right now.

The economic story just changed dramatically. Payrolls fell -92k in Feb. Jan growth was revised down by -4k to +126k. And Dec revisions subtracted -64k to -17k. Unemployment rate up a tick to 4.4%. Recession questions are back on the menu

wild seeing the news act like israel is the victim

Perhaps the terrorist state with nuclear weapons is …. {checks notes} … the United States of America?

When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.
