#Georgia Vote for Keisha Lance Bottoms for Governor! Keisha is experienced and has the leadership skills to deliver for your state. She will expand healthcare access and protect rural communities. She will also crack down on corporate landlords that are raising housing costs! #ResistanceUnited ⬇️

Hey Tim Cook - I just cancelled my Apple One subscription! You wanna suck up to our racist, hateful POS? You wanna go see the ‘fillum’ on the night that Pretti was murdered? You don’t get my money!

Why is everyone so naive? (I was gonna say ‘stupid’.) Of course Trump is saying it’s ok for the R’s to vote to release the files, because now he’s got his minion AG ready to say no-can-do because there’s an investigation going on!!!

Under Mike Johnson, the House has conducted just 20 days of business in the last 16 weeks and refused to swear in Democrat Adelita Grijalva. Don't forget what this is really about: keeping the release of the Epstein Files at bay.

Our once-thriving (2024) economy is decimated… … but at least brown-skinned people are being indiscriminately rounded up, pedophiles are being protected, and our loved ones can once again die from preventable diseases—ain’t that right, MAGA? #winning

“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...

thebulwark.comHonoring Ashli Babbitt Dishonors the MilitaryIf there’s no difference between upholding the Constitution and attacking it, then there’s no honor in service.

Get yourself a Congressperson who doesn't lie to you.

#NY17 Mike Lawler promised not to support a bill that made cuts to Medicare or Medicaid. “I've been very clear in this and that I will not support any proposal that cuts benefits or reduces services for Medicare or Medicaid.”

Republicans pulled a fast one—and Lisa Murkowski was in on it. They used a budget trick called the “current policy baseline.” Learn that phrase. You’re going to hear it a lot. It lets them pretend massive Medicaid and SNAP cuts aren’t “real” cuts. Total scam.

For every millionaire household that would get a tax break from Republicans’ big, ugly bill, 19 Americans would be stripped of their health coverage. Their priorities couldn’t be clearer. We must stop this devastating bill.

When you spent $25 million on your birthday party but the tanks were old and the clown wasn’t funny and the taco bowls didn’t have enough cheese and all the cool kids went to a different party.

Since 47 is freaking out about Bruce Springsteen calling this the most corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration, it would be a shame if this video was shared even more widely....

Correct. What Musk has done since January is openly evil. The death toll will be incalculable. I fail to understand how he is still the head of any company, any part of the government, invited to any gathering... there is no proper word in English for someone who knowingly causes the deaths of kids.

Much of what DOGE is doing is illegal. Much of it will create long-term and lasting damage to America. This is the clearest example of an action that was illegal, anti-democratic, but also sped past any moral grey zones to being deeply evil. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/what-doge-...

Let’s imagine for a minute the reaction if… …Joe Biden had accepted a $400 million luxury jet… …from a foreign government that funds Hamas… …for his personal use after his presidency… …while threatening to take away people’s healthcare in his budget bill. #TrumpCrimeFamily

If Abrego Garcia dies in prison, Trump will have murdered him, as if it were on ‘5th Avenue’, and his supporters will be his accomplices. Period. Does Trump wish to be a murderer? We may find out. (I wish this thought would spread - if I only had followers…) We have to save this man’s life.

It needs to be the adopted, unanimous premise on which we base everything that we see and hear - he is trying to destroy the United States of America. There is no evidence to the contrary, and it’s getting worse.

Bret Stephens, “Until Trump, no president had been so ignorant of the lessons of history (re: tariffs). No president had been so incompetent in putting his ideas into practice.” David French: Trump is supplementing his malice with incompetence.” Too bad the R’s in Congress are hiding from the chaos.

With all the bullshit talk on TV, this all boils down to three words: Trump doesn’t care. He doesn’t care about the country, its economy, its educationally-disadvantaged kids, his poll numbers, the environment, and the state of the only world we’ve got. Steve Leisman called it “insanity”. Probably…

Don’t you have to be clinically insane to find pleasure in shutting down the Canadian auto industry? He’s already destroying one economy - and now he’s happy doing the same to our friends (except he doesn’t have any friends) - and over 40 pounds of fentanyl and minimal illegal immigration. Sick.

The main beneficiaries of the Department of Education are disabled kids (IDEA) and working-class and poor Americans (Title I, Pell Grants, work assistance), so of course Trump wants to do away with it.

Donald Trump: Comply with my demands or I will hurt my own people! Canada: Ok, we will keep doing a thing we’ve been doing. Mexico: Ok, we will do a thing we did under the last guy. Trump: I WIN!!!! Fucking idiot.

Trump Tariffs will be just as successful as Trump Vodka, Trump Steaks, Trump Shuttle, Trump Taj Majal, Trump Mortgage, Trump University, Trump Foundation, Trump Entertainment Resorts, and Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts.

I wondered why Canadians would reciprocate with their own self-harming tariffs - instead they’re just gonna take American stuff off their shelves, so no Canadian will pay the ‘tax’ that we will pay when we need some Crown Royal. And 100% tariffs on Teslas is just like taking them off the shelf, too.

So now we get in a pissing contest where each side tries to show how much they can hurt each other, people who have been friends and partners forever, things just keep getting ratcheted up, and everyone loses. All because of one malignant narcissist’s derangement and fragile ego.

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump. “I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

HELL YEAH! Congressman Jim McGovern TORE Speaker Mike Johnson a new for saying it wasn’t “his place” to question Trump’s January 6 pardon. “Not your place?? WHO THE HELL’S PLACE IS IT?” He said. “How about you stand with the officers who protected you and not a reality show wannabe dictator.” 💙
