A Turning Point USA early adopter sees the light and leaves. Now an attorney in Texas she writes: “I was in deep” into TPUSA, “an organization within which I initially found so much belonging and joy. However, the deeper I got, the more meanness I found. A nastiness that I didn’t understand….”

Hi, I'm Caroline, and I used to work for Charlie Kirk and TPUSA. Over the past several years, I've grappled with how to reconcile my past political involvement with the state of politics now, but with the direction of U.S. politics, I truly cannot stay silent.

Is this a good economic indicator, chat?

(Fletch voice) Thank God, the… Democrats.

Every single Republican who just voted to rip health care away from 17 million Americans has government-funded health care.

tfw you've just stripped healthcare from 17 million Americans and ensured the closure of rural hospitals

“Depriving adults and their kids of healthcare and saddling our grandkids with crippling debt is ‘immaterial’ as long as we get to keep kidnapping people with darker skin.” What sick bastards.

“Pro-life”

So we can all agree that Trump intends for Medicare and Medicaid to collapse so that he can either offer government loans with insane strings attached to hospitals or overhaul the healthcare system altogether in some kind of crazy MAHA way, right?

The votes are slowing down. They don’t have a bill. Still issues with Parl. Still disagreeing in caucus. Still fighting with House. Still no final language.

My biggest concern with Trump’s massive consolidation of executive power is that they wouldn’t be doing *gestures around at literally everything* all this if they genuinely believed a democrat (or even a moderate republican) would be in the White House in the foreseeable future.

Never bet against the Republicans' willingness to sell out after spending weeks feigning concern. It's all an act. They're all self-serving cowards who will put party over country every single time.

BREAKING: the current version of Donald Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ being advanced by Senate Republicans will now cut $930 BILLION from Medicaid. All to fund tax breaks for billionaires Heartless and cruel doesn’t even begin to describe this level of greed.

Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

Idk why these pundits are so mad. Shakira Law in New York City sounds sexy as hell.

Undiluted projection.

Brutal

We're getting very close to an *actual* WAR IS PEACE Fox news banner.

I’m genuinely wondering if Trump is trying to manifest a ceasefire rn thru his truth social rantings #iranconflict

The nuclear Facebook post that blows up my family’s political ceasefire is about as imminent as WWII at this point

The fog of war propaganda is settling in thick already on the news networks 😮‍💨

From "stay the hell out" to "MAGA"

It's apparently "not human" anymore to use an em dash when writing, which is slightly annoying as someone who uses the em dash frequently. Everyone being terrible at writing is responsible for this.

dropping 3 bombs & then saying “now is the time for peace” is peak america

Dudes will cheerlead a war in the Middle East instead of going to therapy and taking their meds

bunker buster bombs <<< peanut buster parfaits

If I hear “bunker buster bomb” one more time I might lose it

The Peace Candidate.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

So is it racism or stupidity or both to blame for this?

ICE declares war on baseball, presumably apple pie next

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

hi @cnn.com please don’t have Ben Ferguson on your network again bc that was absolutely ridiculous and insufferable thanks

“We were there for unrelated reasons but also we were never there.”

Tucker Carlson was visited by three spirits recently, wasn’t he?

I need all of #lawsky to see this video from a Colorado appeals court livestream yesterday. I am in actual tears. Sound *incredibly* on, the subtitles will not help.

Is the floor so low we’re only half-expecting an apology from a Senator who mocked the assasination of politicians he didn’t like? Or is there just no floor at all anymore? Mike Lee should resign. Today.

a nation on edge holds its breath as the former host of celebrity apprentice huddles with his advisors, the wrestlemania ceo and the former co-host of fox & friends weekends

Always.

Would you look at that.

ok I currently sleep on three #mypillow pillows that I purchased before he lost his marbles…what are some good alternatives to #mikelindell pillows so I can ensure his crazy doesn’t seep into my brain at night? #help

Honestly, I get that we need these stories, but, like, the actual story is: Everyone with half a brain knew this — and many, many people said it — but Stephen Miller doesn’t care. And Donald Trump let him start implementing this stupid, hateful plan.

The paper drop was so cathartic

A lot of speculation about how things got so Stupid and Evil and I think one reason is we've collectively been too tolerant of Stupid and Evil for too long
