People used to runaway and join the circus. Now I don’t know what they do

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

47 years is the *opposite* of imminent (which means "something that will happen soon"). These people are so stupid.

“I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.” — Dwight Eisenhower, 1946

Congress and Supreme Court are only quick to act when it means trying to block President Obama from creating a healthcare program or stopping President Biden from forgiving student debt, but not when it comes to stopping a dangerous criminal tyrant from destroying the world.

The best part of Steve Bannon outing ICE as Trump's personal Gestapo is that millions of young people now know who Steve Bannon is bc of his many appearances in the Epstein Files.

A real pleasure to see the spontaneous creativity at The Improv Shop in St. Louis

It’s been one year of Trump. Give me 2 minutes to explain why it’s been such a catastrophic failure.

Q: Greenlanders have made it clear they don't want to be part of the US-- TRUMP: When I speak to them, I'm sure they'll be thrilled

We already have complete access to Greenland, including unfettered freedom of navigation into the Arctic. We have a military base. We have early warning radar systems in place that will integrate with the “dome.” And we have allies to help defend it. We don’t need Greenland.

There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police

This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV. The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence. This is not protection. This is occupation.

Gifford: This ridiculous rhetoric by the president—it’s going to impact every single American because it makes them lose faith in us. That makes them less likely to travel here, buy American products, or invest here. This broken trust—the work of diplomacy—is very hard to build back.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela. Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law. Both of those facts are simultaneously true.

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

So the "most transparent president in history" won't let Jack Smith's testimony become public. He's got them holding back tens of thousands of Epstein documents, haven't seen his taxes, his school records, and no one knows why the East Wing was destroyed before he even had ballroom plans. Yeah.

Only the orange felon could make the murders of Rob Reiner and his wonderful wife Michele all about himself whilst insulting him in the process. I truly hate this evil vile sadistic scumbag.

Just think it’s a bit weird that society has been brainwashed in to thinking that rich people and massive corporations having a bit less money is the main thing we need to avoid no matter what.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

I thought it was a Democratic hoax?!?

Trump really wants us to be North Korea: completely brainwashed into thinking we’re the best, no protests allowed, and his giant image everywhere. Complete control. We ain’t NK. Or Russia. But we might be Hungary, if we don’t win this thing. We will win.

It's storming this evening, so I think today was the last of this:

The oh so religious Christian Karoline Leavitt is right now standing in front of the American people and protecting a president who, at a minimum, knew about Epstein’s pedophile network, at worst participated in it.
