Lol congrats to all the chuds who spent the past 24 hours clutching their pearls pretending that Obama insulted Cheesecake Factory just so Trump could actually insult it.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

And let’s not forget the good parts. We now have signs for the Oval Office, the cement garden and the Lincoln bedroom. He has accomplished this, and made the White House look like “Saddam Hussein’s bathroom.” Thanks Beth 💙💙💙💙💙 #Blues

We must expect that Meta's interference is happening in other elections around the world *right now*. This isn't just a one-off. Meta has proved repeatedly they are committed to advancing far-right agendas worldwide, are serial liars, and are flagrantly indifferent to the dismantling of democracies.

Obama: "Imagine the power duo of Abdul and Elissa. You got a Muslim man, a Jewish woman, fighting for you in the US senate. That's something, Michigan, you can be proud of!"

PSA: If you’re more upset about Obama making a joke about Cheesecake Factory than you are about Trump making it impossible for you to afford to EAT at a Cheesecake Factory, then congratulations, because YOU are an idiot, and an asshole, and you’re in a fucking cult.

People like him are why Holocausts occur. It's not the actual Nazis. It's the people who just shrug and help them.

I wanted to know more. I spent several hours talking to the officer, Jaron Alexander, and he’s not a self-professed true believer in Trump’s mass deportation campaign. So why had he decided to help deport his neighbors?

Ukraine losing access to Starshield raises serious concerns for our national security—like who controls critical capabilities the U.S. government has spent billions to procure & how decisions to restrict them are made. I'm demanding answers from the Department of Defense & SpaceX

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

"She lied about SA." CPS took them away from their mother in the 1970's. I can't even imagine how bad it must have been for 1970's CPS to investigate and say, "These kids shouldn't be with their mother."

In 2012, Robin Williams warned us about Trump’s ownership of pageants like Miss America and Miss Universe, comparing it to Michael Vick owning pet stores: “It’s a catch-and-release program.” We should have listened to Robin.

I just early voted in Missouri. Democrats downballot. I did not mark uncontested races. Not one Republican will get my vote, even if they are the only choice. And remember: Yes on 6. The rest are tricks.

The courts are here, and they're going to intervene to stop any "irreparable harm" (to the Trump administration's desire to enact its policy) (of stealing Congressmembers' phones and then tweeting out the contents)

REMINDER: When Biden left office inflation was 2.9%. Now it's 3.7%. When Biden left office gas was $3.10 per gallon --now it's $4.33. When Biden left office Diesel was $3.63-- now it's $6.29. This is 100% TRUMPFLATION. Only people doing well now are Trump, his corrupt family and his oligarchs!

Federal criminal law prohibits troops at election polling stations. Is a pre-election day ballot drop box covered by the statute?

I am pushing legislation to make sure ALL FDA-approved forms of contraception—including birth control pills, IUDs, and more–are COVERED for patients. No fees. No hurdles. No out-of-pocket costs.
