All of Elon Musk’s businesses would be bankrupt and shuttered without government handouts. Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” on the other hand, is a phenomenal success. Cry more, you obnoxious white supremacist dork. (And, PLEASE, like you ever read Homer . . .)

Sending ICE Agents to intimidate voters at polling places, declaring martial law to try to delay or cancel the election, seizing ballots-As he gets more desperate, there's nothing he won't do to try to save his pathetic orange ass. ALL states should preemptively prepare to defend Democracy! 🇺🇸 ✊

While the killers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti walk free, the DOJ is busy bringing bogus charges against protesters. The Administration thinks intimidation will make us back down. They keep learning the same lesson: Minnesotans don't scare easily. We organize for our rights ✊🏽

Nixon's executive branch goons thought they were untouchable while committing crimes for Nixon. And when Nixon fell from power, 48 of them were criminally convicted & 30 went to prison. Beginning in January 2029, those numbers will pale in comparison to what's coming for Trump's criminal cabal.

WHAT HAPPENED TO AMERICA FIRST? We can always find $ billions for bombs, never enough money for healthcare. Your kid’s insulin shouldn’t have to compete with another forever war. #FundHealthcareNotWar ALL TALK 👇🏽

I imagine this will be Exhibit A in Comey’s motion to dismiss his seashell indictment for selective prosecution, based on a failure to charge others similarly situated.

tRump: "I was totally exonerated." And by "exonerated", he means he was found liable for sexually assaulting & defaming E. Jean Carroll by a jury of his peers & ordered to pay her $88.3 Million. #WordsMatter

Love how Rep. Pramila Jayapal let Vought have it. 🔥 88 corporations, including Tesla, paid zero taxes. Americans pay 14.5%. Healthcare getting more expensive. Defense failing audits. And he wants to talk about “fraud.” She was ready. #SheShed

Discharging Trump under the 25th Amendment would ultimately require a 2/3 vote in the House and a 2/3 vote in the Senate. Impeachment requires a majority in the House and removal requires 2/3 of the Senate. If I’m reading 25A correctly, impeachment is easier. Please let me know if I’m wrong!

You can be opposed to the Iranian regime AND the reckless bombing of school kids. You can support the troops AND be opposed to sending them into senseless wars. You are not an antisemite if you decry the Israeli regime’s genocidal rampage. Don’t let morons impose their idiotic view of the world.

Elon Musk is now worth over $800 billion. Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025. Meanwhile, millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I’m sorry, if you’re a journalist and you’re still going to the White House Correspondents Dinner this year, genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, fuck off.

The United States committed this crime on Cuba

Anonymous@youranoncentral.bsky.social

Trump has sentenced over 3,000 civilians to death in Cuba; this is the number of innocent people expected to die in the following weeks as a result of US illegal siege and starvation campaign on the Island.

Rand Paul: “I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force.” The entire confirmation hearing in one sentence.

I know it’s apparently only salient to most American media outlets to talk about oil, but for the few remaining people left with a soul, thousands of people live on this tiny island in only 8 sq miles. This reads like a serial killer prison interview.

Jon Ossoff: The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members return in flag-draped coffins, and others have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutGOP
