There have to be some GOP who didn’t sign up to be Trump Bootlickers. When will they grow a spine, work with the Dems and STOP THE INSANITY? Government shut, prices high, economy tanking, people being snatched out of school pick-up lines. WAKE UP! Looking at YOU, @lisamurkowski

Google also identifies Denali as Mt. McKinley and the Gulf of Mexico as Gulf of America. What a bunch of spineless sell-outs.

I bought holographic stickers for my windows to prevent bird strikes, but there’s a fringe benefit.

Sen. Mark Kelly: "If you say something that the president or this administration does not like, they're going to come after you. The president is trying to silence us, and I can't think of anything that's more un-American."

Ivermectin in an anti-parasitic. It kills parasites. Viruses are not parasites. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I don’t think I’ve told Bluesky about this very good boi, Simon! We adopted him from the shelter on Valentine’s Day and he has been such a delight! He gets along so well with Ginger and they have so much fun together. Remember friends - #DontShopAdopt

I don’t think I’ve ever seen people look LESS thrilled.

That would be bad if that ever happened.

He's the worst thing that ever happened to America. I despise him BECAUSE I love my country. 🇺🇸

My youngest child is almost 17 and today I discovered I still have an outlet cover in the hallway. At this point, I might as well leave it until I get grandkids.😂

Maybe President Obama and Mayor Mamdani could come do a read aloud in my library too. 🥹

"Trump's not conservative" Oh no you don't. No no no no no. I can tolerate Republicans moving on from Bush and the neocons, 9/11 and all that. But you fucking own Trump from now until the end of time. He told you exactly who he was from day 1 and you voted for him 3 times. That's on YOU.

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

The US is not being governed. It is being looted. 🤬

No arguments

Maybe this can be my excuse any time I do something wrong. ‘Sorry I was late to work. Israel told me to.’ ‘Sorry I ran the stop sign. Israel told me to.’

We are 10 days into an illegal war costing us $900M a day which has led to the deaths of 7 U.S troops & 1200 Iranians including hundreds of children. Everything here is far more expensive & we are far less safe. And all of it, all of it… is because Israel told us to.

You love your children. I love my children. There are more than 175 mothers in Iran that will never see their children, again because Donald Trump needed a distraction from the Epstein files. He's going down. Historically, these types of monsters don't get away with that kind of shit. #WarCrimes

But there’s no money for education, healthcare, daycare, food assistance, public television, national parks . . .

Happy Spring Break, you filthy animals! (Yeah, that’s snow out the window)

I’m always happy when the spring time change aligns perfectly with my spring break, like it does this year. But seriously, can we end this garbage?

Prediction: We will see a mental health connection in later life amongst people who now are endlessly doomscrolling and obsessing versus people who force themselves to regularly take a step back and enjoy art and literature and cooking and nature.

Some observations: 1. It’s surprising when people you thought were cool turn out to be ultra conservative Trump apologists. 2. It’s surprisingly easy to drop those who weren’t really a part of your everyday life, and you don’t even miss them.

Accurate

TRUTH

Was sick with a stomach bug all day yesterday and I’m not feeling up to the protest against the ILLEGAL WAR IN IRAN. So I’m wearing a protest shirt. Different topic, same shitty president.

Liars gonna just keep on lying

Interesting spin. By this logic, shouldn’t we be seeing tons of young Christian men volunteering to go to Iran? I mean, if it’s God’s plan and all, aren’t you eager to meet him, dudebros?

With the Trump Lunatic Party in charge, Republicans and Democrats are finding more we can agree on.

Eisenhower

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. This is EXACTLY the fault of Americans who voted for him and showered him with sycophantic devotion.

who made this

Donald Trump is still a paedophile and rapist, and no war will cover that up.

I think this is EXACTLY what he’s doing.

Hey #Congress - have you thought about maybe, I don’t know . . . STOPPING the Maniac in Chief before he starts a war with Iran or interferes with elections? This guy is a danger to himself, the country and, in fact, the whole world. #TrumpDementia #TrumpsteinFiles #TrumpFelon

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

Because they’re 99% certain Congress lacks the balls to do anything about it.

It would be almost comical how hard Trump is trying to pre-emptively rig the midterm elections if it weren’t also fucking terrifying that he might get away with it. #fairelections

Make America Broke Again

For fuck’s sake, Anne Coulter is a moron. Only ONE of my grandparents was born in this country. This is the case for millions and millions of Americans, including our equally moronic president.

Oh for the courage of a child . . . Congress just doesn’t have it.
