Just learned a new word about that orange stain on America

The Senate Parliamentarian has advised that the orange felon’s $1B trashy dictator worship ballroom will be subject to a 60-vote threshold. His demolishing of the White House for his own ego/vanity should be considered destruction of government property. I hate him.

This says it all. #EatTheRich

Trump: “America is the hottest country in the world right now! Xi: “No, America is a nation in decline.” Trump: “You’re right. America is a nation in decline.”

Worst. President. Ever. #FDT

“It’s possible that we’re starting to see the consequences of severe and sudden cuts to global health programs that have eroded surveillance and allowed deadly viruses to spread undetected.” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/15/w...

“.. This is an insane amount of trades,” he said, adding that it looks more like something done by “a hedge fund with massive algo trades” that buys and shorts securities than a personal account. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This shit is really killing this country. It hurts. It physically, emotionally hurts. Like we are being cut apart.

Thoughts for people living in safe blue cities and states: Alabama is the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement. People bled and died for our right to vote. #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth 🧵

And it’s not lost on me that in my entire life, I’ve never had to wonder if my vote would count, if polling places would be shut down, or if there would be roadblocks waiting on the way there. A lot of Americans still do. #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth 3/3

Desperately Needed

Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself into slavery.

He does it every day.

The felon's plan to pay off J6 thugs is not just corruption, it is buying their action to go to the mat for him during & after the Nov election. If Dems win, thugs lose their payday. This isn't to reward them for the past, it's to pay them in advance for future violence.

Well said.

"I can't stand the word 'empathy,' actually. I think 'empathy' is a made-up New-Age term that does a lot of damage." -Charlie Kirk Then in honor of Charlie Kirk, I shall have no Empathy for him or his family. It is what he would want.

The U.S. government has become a neofascist regime run by a sociopath. Keeping it funded now is to participate in the most atrocious abuse of power in U.S. history. So I for one have decided that the best route is to shut the whole thing down.

It'll be interesting to learn if Kirk's shooter wrote clues on their ammo: Misogynist, White supremacist, Project 2025? Just thinking 🤔

There is no place for violence in our democracy — against anyone.

Two-part short 'skit', brilliant. Well-done👏🏼👏🏼😂

whenever I ask the question "why is this thing in the US so shitty? how did it become this shitty?" and I do a little research, it's honestly wild how often the answer is "because Reagan"

Frost: We need housing not handcuffs. We have a housing crisis in this country. Every time the rent goes up $100, homelessness goes up 9%… We shouldn’t be criminalizing homeless people for the failures of government

FAFO

SCOTUS impeachments and removals are coming! Then long-needed reforms💪🏼

Assuming he survives this shooting, just like Trump "survived" his (set-up), it'll be interesting to see how quickly he gets back up in that horse. My bet, he'll remain a traitor to Greater America, much like Steve Scallise(sp).

That's definitely his signature… …Just saying. #Trump is a #SickFuck Pass It on #ReleaseAllEpsteinFiles

Happy Monday Dee. Everyone needs to be calling their senators, congressman or congresswoman, and governors. I left a message with Pritzker to adopt health and vaccine policies similar to Massachusetts. Thank you for the inclusion in this pack full of amazing resisters. ♻️👣

Geography lesson of the day!

Acosta said it out loud: Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” That wasn’t a slip. It was a confession. Every piece of research points the same way: Epstein wasn’t the disease. He was just the symptom.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Must Read: "The erosion of science, the erosion of health care, the erosion of the safety net. It's like the Republicans don't care about public health at all. Yet they enjoy a reputation for caring about people. How did this happen?" www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...
