I wish someone in the media would remind Johnson and Thune that their excellent healthcare is provided by the American people and than ask them one simple question: Why can’t the people who pay for your healthcare get the same care?

Trump said that he spoke to the president of Puerto Rico, which means he spoke to someone who does not exist on a US territory whose people are US citizens. I guess Trump has been talking to himself again.

This is how far gone the Republican Party is. Trump addressed 800 military generals and admirers about his stationery and how he, Biden, and Obama walked down stairs. All Republicans should be voted against.

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

Exactly.

We Americans now live in a country where Democratic mayors around the country are strategizing about how to protect their citizens from the president of the United States.

#Republicans and their media allies are desperately trying to frame the shutdown as the fault of #Democrats Meanwhile, Republicans can’t even be bothered to show up for work.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

Here comes the commander and chief.

I’m obviously not an expert in this area, but ordering several hundred senior US military officers from around the world to gather in one place and then announcing the location seems a bit daft. But not to worry. I’m sure Hegseth knows what he’s doing. After all, he was a presenter on Fox News.

It should work.

Last week I defied half the population, have the states, and the entire Trump administration by getting a flu and a Covid vax, which is incredibly sad thing to say.

Will Tylenol sue Trump or give him millions of dollars?

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Election alert! Elections are the most important thing...it's the reason most of us are online.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers: “It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group. There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi. He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Here are the comments that ABC used as justification for canceling Jimmy Kimmel Live.

On September 14, 2025 Trump said that “300,000,000 people died from drugs last year.” As of September 17, 2025 the population of the US was 347,665,016. MAGA you did this to us.

So not surprising that the people who fetishize assault rifles kill more Americans than those who don't.

The "common good" is a set of shared values about what we owe one another as citizens who are bound together in the same society. A concern for the common good—keeping the common good in mind—is a moral attitude. It recognizes that we’re all in it together.

Kirk is now a martyr. MAGAworld will feed on this for a long time. The murder will probably increase the advance of fascism. I hated his positions, but killing him was wrong. To celebrate his death is utterly stupid, immoral, and pragmatically stupid.

The murders of Charlie Kirk and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman are part of a dangerous rise in political violence. We cannot accept this as the norm. We must do whatever we can to reduce the anger and hate that are consuming and destroying so much of the country.

"We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." Sonia Sotomayor

The failure of US democracy.

This is humiliating.

No one should be surprised.

Today there was a shootout between two cars in my very residential neighborhood. The United States of America is such a great country.

I abandoned X a long time ago saying goodbye to 56 thousand followers. But never on X did I get so many young beautiful women who want me on Bluesky. And I thought because I’m an old guy I had lost it. Bluesky, I hadn’t realized how desirable I am. Thank you.

We get outraged over children dying. They get outraged over Cracker Barrel changing the logo. We are not the same!
