Samuel L. Jackson delivered it better… and at least he knew it was fiction. Even MAGA clocked Pete Hegseth’s bullshit. Next time, he should read this: “They claim to know God, but by their actions, they deny him.” — Epistle to Titus 1:16

Trump: "For the reminder of 2026 you're gonna see a big surge. The numbers are really tremendous and that's why I'm out here. If they were bad, I wouldn't be here today. I'd be sitting home watching television."

I have reached out to United Airlines asking for comment about its sponsorship of Trump's Freedom 250 and the project's Christian nationalist Rededicate 250 event, "rededicating our country as One Nation under God." #$UAL

“.. Inflation was coming down in the United States — and then Trump’s tariffs happened.” @heathmayo.bsky.social

Every Democrat needs to run this image in their campaign materials 24/7 until Election Day.

I know he is demented and degenerate and mostly pretty dumb too. But Pope Leo is weak on crime is one of the funniest things a politician has ever said.

“The futures market is not representing the on-the-ground and on-the-water reality of oil at all,” said Vikas Dwivedi, global energy strategist at Macquarie Group, an Australian financial services firm. “It’s quite broken.” www.nytimes.com/2026/04/10/b...

Not good. “.. if payments accompanying 20% of the world’s oil and gas can move through a digital pipe that the US Treasury cannot see, then America’s dominance of global finance has effectively been handed an expiry date.” @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Ok on a serious note, it cannot be exaggerated how bad formalized Iranian control of the Strait is for the world. The entire global economy rests on an American guarantee of free commercial shipping. That guarantee is gone. We don’t know exactly what will happen but none of it will be good.

Congress is on vacation while the world is about to implode. Great….

23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23. 20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t. They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

More to the point, the president of the United States threatens what a psychiatrist would call psychotic, and what court of law would call a war crime.

The death of irony…

These are the Twitter/X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but jeez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken. Original post

An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.

A+ headline.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

Ja.

Racist garbage o’clock already

Debbie Reynolds was 19, with no formal dance training, when she filmed this scene. She was then put on bed rest for two days. “Making ‘Singin’ in the Rain’ and childbirth,” she said, “were the two hardest things I’ve ever done.” Born today in 1932. #RIP 💕

RENMAC: “.. We’re seeing the closest parallel to the 1970s in decades—oil above $100, sticky inflation, and a Fed that can’t ease without risk. It’s not a recession. It’s a prolonged ‘slow burn’ — where markets move sideways, but real returns erode.” start.renmac.com/1970s-playbook

Vote-by-mail is safe, and Massachusetts law is clear. The President does not have the authority to override states' authority on elections or interfere with your right to vote. We'll see him in court.
