Suspending the gas tax would be a gift to the oil industry, as they would be under no obligation to lower prices and they would just pocket that money.

Working as intended.

It's really easy to make money stock trading ... when you literally know what's about to happen.

Which is so odd since SCOTUS said this wouldn't happen.

@kairyssdal.bsky.social is correct. Tax Revenue, as a share of GDP, is several percentage points lower now due to decades of Republican tax cuts. Any plan to balance the budget and pay down our debt must include tax increases.

I'm re-sharing this. I hope I don't get indicted. #ImpeachTrump

I'm truly fascinated by people on the left who think that impeaching Trump a 3rd time will have any positive effect on the country.

Jesus ... fuck ... these guys are idiots.

"your body, your faith and your convictions are not negotiable.” - Pete Hegseth, cosplaying as Ares. Also, defending a woman's right to choose.

Fun fact: Joe Biden has never been the Director of the FBI.

$87B a year to Iran. Take that, Obama!

In fairness, no one has ever described JD Vance as a feminist.

Thank you to Pakistan for giving our Emperor a path to not starting a Nuclear War.

He wants out and he can’t figure out how to do it

This ruling is an absolute disgrace and will lead to a lot of people being hurt. Terrible, horrible decision.

Wow. Just, wow.

Same, Donald, same.

"The President didn't apply tariffs. He was trying to stop tariffs being applied." - Sen. Kennedy, probably.

Standing up for what we know is right, defending those who are being unjustly attacked, is absolutely keeping with the heart and soul of what it means to be liberal. Starting a fight to hurt people we don't like, is not.

And the term for that, Pete, is war crimes.

Their entire political strategy is just to upset half the country as much as they possibly can.

The U.S. is not known for fixing what we broke. And I'm pretty sure Iran knows this.

"I know where Iran sleeper cells are but I'd rather focus on Somalis in Minneapolis ..." is one hell of a position to take.

This would have funded free school lunches for every kid for an entire year.

Imagine China attacking the U.S. and taking out Trump and Vance and then saying "For good measure we're also taking out Congress, your Generals, half your Governors and a random elementary school."

From the same President who last week said we were taking out Iran's leader so the people could rise up and form their own government.

Pete Hegseth's murderous buffoonery, coming amid a lifetime in which he's betrayed everyone close to him and failed up from one disaster to the next, is a perfect example of how the appeal of Trumpism is that it creates a permission structure for people to openly be their worst selves

Here we go…

People claiming a frontrunner will just fall from the sky need to just stop.

Schrodinger's Country. The U.S. has the lowest crime rate in over 100 years while also swimming in crime due to undocumented folks. #Republican #Logic

You can swing for the fences every time or you can reliably get on base. This is a post about building wealth.

And if anyone knows anything about ripping people off, it's the President.

Trump issued a threat to Iran during the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace. Perfectly on brand.

"I shoved this girl on the playground. She didn't like and got very aggressive, so I shoved her again." - Trump, age 12, most likely

But the economy is doing "fine" 🙄

No ICE Agents were killed in all of 2025.

Olympics: The sun was formed almost 5 billion years ago. Maga: What is this woke bull shit??

I honestly can't tell if this Opening Ceremony is bad or NBC just edited it to be bad.

No, it's not.

#NBC: We showed all 28 countries participating in these #WinterOlympics World: There are actually 92 countries participating. #NBC: Yup. We showed all 28 countries.

The fact that #NBC decided to skip #Finland during the introduction of the countries and athletes, does not bode well for NBC's coverage. #Olympics

Watching the opening ceremony for these Olympic games and I'm struck by how much J.D. Vance looks like he absolutely hates being there. #DoucheBag

What's the point of living longer if I'm still required to toil away at a job I hate?

Fact check: True.

Well, Maga lost the wrestling fans. All down hill from here.

Alphabet #$GOOG beats earnings per share and revenue. Up 1.65% so far after hours. #NASDAQ #TQQQ

I'm old enough to remember the 2024 election when Liberals were saying people should vote for Harris and Leftists were saying "Ugh, bro, my man, ugh, I mean ... bro."

If they were the "worst of the worst" why wait until after their protected status ends?

And there's the bounce! Will last? Or just a dead cat bounce? #Gold #IAU

Wow. Just ... wow.
