I consider myself a fairly patient person, but I can't listen to another second of this ridiculous, wheezing idiot. I'm done. Nothing he is saying aligns with anything that is really happening in the real world.

“I’d have no problem releasing the video” “I didn’t say that, you said that. Fake news.” 5 days apart 😬 (From @therecount.com )

Reporter: “You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US …” Trump: “Right.” Reporter: “Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?”

Money… How much he charged for 🇭🇳 former president pardon? It’s not about drugs. It’s all about the money.

Bono on Donald Trump: “America is the best idea the world ever came up with. But Donald Trump is potentially the worst idea that ever happened to America. He’s trying to hijack the idea of America. Wise people of conscience should not let this man turn your country into a casino”

MTG's retiring 5 years after she joined the House. This is the MINIMUM someone needs to serve to be fully vested. When she reaches 62, she can cash in on her delayed pension. Jan 5th is the FIRST weekday after EXACTLY 5 years in the House. Conniving. Seems her break from DJT was timed purposefully.

Another uber-sucky legislator from Louisiana - Geez, some obnoxious losers they have elected to represent them = Kennedy, Scalise and Higgins. Yech!

Trump is so right on this one.

“.. It’s to the point now where .. I could lose everything ... Being a small business owner isn’t worth it when your country turns on you,” said Jared Hendricks, the CEO of Village Lighting, a small business selling Christmas products. @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2025/10/17/h...

Behold the National Neckgina.

Trump was POTUS on J6. It was Trump’s FBI. Biden’s win had not even been certified yet. Trump’s lies are beyond insane.

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

This is why they’re deleting studies

"Trump's tariffs have created a drop in sales of various agricultural exports, including soybeans. Data shows the US is losing out on billions of dollars in purchases from China, which spent over $3 billion on soybeans in the second quarter of 2024. So far China has spent $0 this year."

👀

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care. The system is broken.

Unqualified and intentionally divisive. #science #health #rfkjr

RFK Jr. makes the most basic mistake in all of epidemiology:

Cory Booker: "You cannot say that you're about making America healthy again when you are doing so much to hurt people's access to healthy foods -- like suspending nutrition programs -- to healthcare itself, and also making our environment so much less healthy."

Changing the name of the Department of Defense will cost billions.We could build units for all unhoused veterans. Or give service members a pay raise so 35K active duty members wouldn’t have to rely on food stamps. Or… or… or…

Former Congressman Joe Kennedy joins the growing calls for his uncle, RFK Jr. to resign: “The challenges before us…demand moral clarity, scientific expertise, and leadership rooted in fact. Those values are not present in the Secretary’s office. He must resign.”

Oops: On Joe Rogan’s podcast in September 2018, Tulsi Gabbard acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. Rogan called it “amazing” that it took until 2016 for foreign election influence to become a major issue in the U.S.

I mean, it's not like there's some Federal Agency that handles Emergency Management. Oh. Wait.

GOLDEN IDOL: Trump loyalists are now sporting gilded Trump bust lapel pins. They’ve been quietly told to ditch their congressional or Senate pins for this new badge of allegiance. It’s a loyalty test, and a chilling indication of where America is headed. deanblundell.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...

here’s a curse word free version of “look it up” as requested by countless teachers and librarians 🥰😘

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”

Blumenthal: "The break down in security is so jaw-dropping, but equally so the reaction that, 'well, nothing to be worried about here.' It's a little bit like saying the drunk driver was never at risk because he made it home okay, so nothing to see here."

I'm really really sick of the orange turd's clown show!

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

🚨 CBS News has received an internal NSA bulletin from Feb 2025 warning staff NOT to use Signal app for sensitive info, citing vulnerabilities to Russian hackers. These docs were sent pre-Houthi chat scandal with Jeffrey Goldberg.

Moskowitz: Rather than giving a long speech, I feel like I can just use this. So, that’s a fist, an American flag, fire. From now on, when we do things where we agree, I just hold this up.

Now we have the Speaker of the House threatening to eliminate entire district courts simply because he doesn't like how mean and nasty they are to Trump.

Well this is awkward

Thank you @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

“Wait guys, P. Hegseth is typing…”

This is literally just corruption.

Kaine: "You can talk about sending education back to the states. Yeah, that's where we were before Brown v. Board of Education. The states got to decide, and the states made a hell of a lot of decisions that were really awful."
