When someone sells something they don’t own, it is fraud and theft. When they destroy something they don’t own, that is theft. When they get people to give up something of value through lies, that is fraud and theft. This is his entire presidency and business model.

St. Paul Police Chief Axel Henry is suing Mayor Kaohly Her and the city of St. Paul for sexual harassment. That poor poor man! How can he do his job having heard her use the word “wienering.” I can’t wait to hear his bullshit in court. He’s going to be tarred and feathered in public opinion.

Who is he shtupping tonight? It ain’t his third wife. She loathes him. More likely somebody who looks like his daughter at 15.

Has anyone tried the Captain Kirk method of destroying an AI by logic bombing it with “Everything I tell you is a lie?”

See you in court, creep.

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company is suing Minnesota over a first-in-the-nation law banning technology that allows users to create and post deepfake videos or images of people naked without their consent.

Critical context about Trump's speech: Trump knew he lost the 2020 election and criminally conspired to subvert it. That conspiracy was based on knowing lies. Not delusions. Not mistakes of fact. Lies designed to preserve and grow his power.

I guarantee the sanctimonious nazi that swatted Pete Buttigieg by claiming he’s abusing children actually supports a bunch of pedophiles.

"Here are the best deals we've found during Prime Day" is not a news headline. News orgs that include headlines like these are letting you down, again.

Dismal. What a great publication. Enshittified.

Employees at Scientific American were told today that the magazine has been sold to LabX Media Group, the outfit that runs Discover Magazine and IFLScience. And that means -- of course! -- editorial layoffs. The media mass extinction rolls ever onward.

Was in a jury pool and the defendant was a young black man who was stopped, frisked, found to have a handgun. He was on probation and forbidden to carry. A white prospective juror announced he was a real second amendment guy, even felons should be allowed. But not thugs. Wonder what that was about.

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

Fiscal discipline- it has only ever been a fig leaf over the will to move wealth from the middle class to the richest. In my lifetime every republican government has spent like drunken sailors while cutting taxes from those who should pay most, leaving us near bankruptcy.

The right-wing and Russkitrolls and bots are really ramping up their presence here in preparation for the now familiar “divide and conquer” voting op. I think it would be wise to assume that these actions are not friendly fire, but enemy action. Stand with your friends. Don’t trust your “friends”.

Celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States with the dumbest, most corrupt president ever in power is a bit like celebrating a wedding anniversary after your spouse murdered all your children and drained your bank accounts.

Trump needs to be impeached, removed and arrested. Not only is he committing war crimes on a daily basis he's casually announcing his intent to commit more war crimes on social media, like it's nothing. When will people wake the fuck up and put up a fight against this vile terrorist mutant.

Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is actively meeting with Saudi officials to raise billions for his investment firm — while simultaneously serving as Middle East peace envoy. The world pays the price of war while Trump's family reaps the riches.

I know a few magas who decided they had to buy Teslas when Musk started doing Nazi salutes in public and Trump did a commercial for him. Also know a lot of folks who mostly listen to Country since it’s the only acceptable music for fake patriots. But I don’t know anyone who listens to Kid Rock.

Trump will use nuclear weapons on civilians to distract from his documented rape and assault of little girls unless republicans stop him. He covets power and lusts after inflicting pain.

Bullies have two basic beliefs: -they can hurt you whenever they want -you don't get to fight back The second belief backstops the first. But the second one isn't actually up to the bully.
