Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

Well, we’re finally great again. Heat ray weapon that makes human skin feel like it’s on fire to be used at the border. On human beings. www.cnn.com/2026/10/21/p...

Trump's former communications director says: yes, Trump is a Russian agent, and if you haven't figured that out yet, you're not very smart.

Now that's a great analogy. Think it over before you decide to skip voting. This shit is too important not to participate in democracy.

BREAKING NYT: Federal agents around the country were told in recent days that the FBI would no longer investigate confrontations with immigration agents — cases that sometimes yield evidence that could be used to prosecute DHS agents implicated in violent encounters.

We are very far off the cliff, folks. 🇺🇸 www.npr.org/2026/07/17/n...

What’s that amendment again? Oh, yeah 25!!!...🤔🤔🤔

And so it shall be forever henceforth.

He Should Be Fired Immediately and Investigated…..

NEW: Months after FCC Commissioner Olivia Trusty cast a decisive vote approving Paramount’s historic $8 billion merger with Skydance Media, she and a guest accepted Kennedy Center gala tickets from the company worth more than $12,000.

I'll go with logic.. #politics #logic

It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Sad when Reagan is a progressive by today's abysmal standards.

CORRECTION: After yesterday's rulings, it's now "legalized *SCOTUS-sponsored* bribery."

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Rep. Tom Kean Jr. spent 4 months away from Congress on full taxpayer pay. As a NJ state senator he voted against paid sick leave for workers. He got the time off he denied to everyone else. NJ07 deserves better. #NJ07 #PaidSickLeave

America defeated fascism. We don’t need its aesthetics decorating the White House.

White House officials secretly awarded a no-bid contract worth up to $500m for the construction of the East Wing ballroom in an unusual arrangement that sidestepped typical contracting procedures designed to control costs, according to a copy of the agreement www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Of course, no educated individual would ever suggest that the U.S. is a functioning democracy any longer. You’d have to look at North Korea to see a nation as indescribably corrupt as America.

If this doesn’t look like corruption, what does? Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump bought into a company pursuing a tungsten mine in Kazakhstan. Six days later, that company won the mining rights.🧵

Pete Buttigieg explains why the private sector does not have the capacity to replace government funding. Shareholders prioritize profits from a short term (years) investment. Science is a marathon, requiring long term (decades) investment. Govt funding was designed to support this marathon. 🧪

Just sayin...

People who can barely afford food or rent are stuck paying a trillionaires bills. Fuck that.

100% true. 👇

Silas Shelton had objected to Heartstopper at a school book fair, saying LGBTQ+ books posed a “mental health” risk to children. www.advocate.com/news/crime/h...

We feel like this is the Trump administration’s strategy lie, lie, lie. Keep repeating the same falsehoods and hope people eventually accept them as truth.

Todd Blanche and Kash Patel, Have I got a tip for you...

“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's communications director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” We didn't. #ICYMI, read the story that he wanted dropped:

Surveillance pricing means big corporations buy up your location and income data and know exactly how likely you are to drive to a cheaper store when you’re desperate for kids cough syrup at 2am and they charge you as much money as they can wring out of you. I’m fighting to stop these practices.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is a grifter. Scammer. Con man. Narcissistic sociopath. All thanks to the John Robert's Supreme Court who decided The Felon can do no wrong. And spineless Congressional Republicans who are too afraid to do ANYTHING. 🎁 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks wapo.st/42jTDNx

"Biggest scam in modern political history."

The ODO inspected the facility from Feb. 10-12 and noted 49 deficiencies. #Border

The US Department of War Crimes.

The call is coming from inside the house.

Meanwhile, in America, the Supreme Court says it’s perfectly legal to lie as a candidate, even if you’re defrauding people as part of a coup, as long as it’s an official act.

"It’s not acceptable for one side of Congress to resemble a Klan cookout, and it’s also not acceptable for journalists to treat it as non-news. Because it’s getting worse all the time." Good roundup of Republican racism in this piece:

They told MAGA that immigrants made their lives worse. But last year, they arrested 400k immigrants & we got: - 0% Net Job Creation - OECD Forecasts Inflation @ 4.2% - Gas Prices: $4 - National Debt: Increased by 2.8 Trillion - Home Prices: $460k So now you know!! You have all the same problems!!
