if only ailing boomers with no insurance voted democrat 20-30 years ago their healthcare might have been free today

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

Yes, the United States is so civilized and above the rest of the world that we had a violent insurrection at the behest of a wholly corrupt leader to ignore the ballots that were cast. Lindsey, you are a shameless, groveling, stupid lapdog.

Trust in national media: 28%. 75% of local newsrooms: gone. Billionaires buying what's left. My own Dem congressman wouldn't take a stand against Trump's Fed Chair pick—a man in the Epstein files 500+ times. Not one Illinois paper has touched the story. This is why independent media exists.

What the Dem platform for 2028 must be: 1. Epstein Trials 2. ICE Trials 3. War Crimes Tribunals We don’t want to hear about a $10,000 tax credit for starting new AI businesses. We demand JUSTICE.

I don’t give a flying fuck if Tucker Carlson, MTG, Candace Owens, and Nick Fuentes all hate Trump now. They made this monster. They will burn in hell for this shit.

You could have had free universal healthcare this entire time. The money was always there.

At this point, simply enforcing existing laws would be indistinguishable from a political purge, and we need to do it. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment alone could clear out Trump's entire cabinet and most Republicans in Congress.

If Pamela Jo Bondi won't disseminate evidence of Donald Trump's horrible crimes, we can. Below is the declaration of one of his victims. She alleges that when she was 13 years old, Trump repeatedly raped and beat her. Trump also threatened her and her family with death if she told anyone.

8 Million protesters yesterday at #NoKings. No police beaten with flag poles. No fire extinguishers thrown at other humans. No vandalism or theft. No racist flags. No zip ties. No death threats. No pipe bombs. No poop smeared on walls. That's what happens when mature, civilized people protest.

Spain made history by meeting 100% of national electricity demand with renewable energy for nine hours, driven by strong wind output, abundant solar generation, and flexible grid management.

Republicans are making sure the TSA isn’t funded because Trump wants to use ICE at airports to threaten Democrats into passing the SAVE (his ass) Act because he knows he’s going to lose the election because he raped a bunch of children and then covered it up and everybody found out about it.

LEFT: 1960s Robert Mueller, a wounded and highly decorated soldier in Vietnam. RIGHT: 1960s Donald Trump, a draft dodger at reform school, not athletic enough to make the team so picking up jock straps as “staff.”

Republicans will charge a woman who took a legal abortion pill to end her own pregnancy with murder, but they won't charge the ICE agents who cold-bloodedly murdered Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti for absolutely no reason whatsoever. www.cbsnews.com/news/georgia...

Because it’s already been litigated. 63 times. And Trump lost all 63.

BREAKING: The usually snarky White House account has not responded to Iran’s attacks on social media! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

eric reposted

This is just astonishingly great reporting. All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them. And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
