there is nothing about being president that empowers him to redecorate the surrounding city. this is illegal.

The FBI director was arrested twice in his youth for alcohol-related incidents that he said were “not representative of my usual conduct.”

The National Press Club says that Stars and Stripes firing its ombudsman is "deeply alarming" and "raises serious concerns about potential interference in a newsroom that is meant to operate free from government pressure."

Trump Appears To Doze During Stroke

Didn't bend, didn't cower, didn't even feel the need to stand next to Trump grinning awkwardly like it was normal. And now he's emerged unscathed with his job and his dignity intact and his reputation even stronger than before. Huh. Seems like this could be a model for others in power.

This administration is just hell-bent against generating knowledge about the world. www.notus.org/health-scien...

freedom of speech is not freedom to bold-faced-ly lie.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

This is treating Trump v. United States as law. It is not law. It is anti-law. It belongs in that category of Supreme Court decisions which were not merely wrong, they were illegitimate and non-binding from the day they were issued. It is owed no more respect than Lincoln gave Dred Scott.

totally non opportunist pardon incoming in 5... 4... 3...

Funny you should mention that...

What better time than now?

Apparently there's a new Foo Fighters album dropping tomorrow. Will be just two months shy of the 31y anniversary of their first album. Wild shit.

420 was a few days ago but sure, lfg

I fucking hate him.

This is a pitch perfect response from @aoc.bsky.social -- she mocks their whining, she brings the receipts and then she uses this move as a sign that Democrats are moving to offense now.

So now Pete Hegseth has fired the Secretary of the Navy and the Chief of Staff of the Army, both in the middle of a war, both with no public or known explanation? Seems fine.

There is a reason Watergate was broken by Woodward & Bernstein on the metro desk AND NOT by the White House press corps. Izzy Stone was mocking White House reporters as useless back in the 1950s

such bullshit

Political internships should include doing rounds as a bartender to train future leaders how to stand up for themselves.

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2 www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

Support for impeaching Trump is at 55%, according to a new Strength In Numbers/ @Verasight.io poll, with 37% of adults opposed. Crucially 1 in 5 of Trump’s own voters support impeachment. Read and share: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-04-22...

Atlantic attorneys file supplementary motion for dismissal citing this conference where plaintiff confesses his suit is a lie. Great legal strategy there, Mortgage Eyes.

People who were openly rooting for a president-for-life a year ago mad about gerrymandering sounds like you’re just losers who don’t like losing

“To say that President Trump is corrupt is to somehow understate the size, scope and magnitude of his corruption. It is as if you were to describe a modern thermonuclear device as a ‘bomb.’ That is true enough, but it is not quite the truth. It does not capture the nature of the thing in full.”

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

They think you're stupid.

As part of the restoration of the rule of law, every lawyer in the Trump admin who touched this file needs to go to jail. Sanctions and disbarment are what you do for private abuses of the legal system. Abusing the government power of criminal indictment is another matter, and they keep doing it.

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

lol even the foxnews crowd isn't buying this bullshit victim narrative

This is the kind of betrayal a nation carries out when its leaders don't believe in the concept of allies and that views promises as something for suckers. It also makes our armed forces less safe. No nation will ever trust us again. Why should they? We stab our friends in the back.

A federal judge just blocked the Trump administration's effort to rip out the 15th Street bike lane on the national mall—which substantially reduced crashes and injuries—holding that the move was arbitrary and capricious in violation of the law: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Do not comply in advance

1. Vaccination is a patriotic duty for all citizens. 2. The nature of consent in the relationship between enlisted and the govt is substantively different than between civilians and the govt, esp. during war time. Easy mode biowarfare: propagandize your target to reject vaccination. oh wait.

> "Iran Failed to Respond To Its Terms" Read as: Iran has no interest in negotiating with the US. The US already surrendered, ceded The Strait to Iran, and has demonstrated repeatedly that they can't even respect cease fires that they themselves suggested. What's there even to talk about?

It’s critical to note that this clip should be taken as evidence that Trump is (obviously) taking cuts of the funds being used to build his new white house ballroom, the arc, etc

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren asks Trump Fed pick Kevin Warsh if he has investments tied to the Trump family. He won't answer directly.
