Слава Україні! Black Lives Matter. Women's Rights are Human Rights. Tax the Super Wealthy. Trump is a Criminal. USA is *not* #1 except in incarcerations and gun deaths.

I want someone to make a fake documentary called USA: 2026 which depicts an almost literal utopia without being sci-fi. Single-job People going about their day but having all the advantages we dream of: health care for all, free school lunches, billionaires who slightly less rich, etc.

There was once a law somewhere that stated if more than three women lived in a house, it was considered a whorehouse. Stupid, I know. But How about: more than two american R men in a group chat should be considered a domestic terrorist cell…

They should have reporters outside every holding station in Alaska and ask everyone as they come out did you vote for Dan S Sullivan or Dan J Sullivan. Random Democrats should say Dan J Sullivan. how about voters with an even number of letters in their name?

He always mentions that his rallies are “sold out”. I’d love for a bunch of activists to go there with signs or T-shirts that say “this is what sold out looks like”. Double meanings are fun.

Nothing makes me lunge for my phone faster than hearing: “Simone Sanders Townsend and I…” frankly I hate all of the #MSnow ads for their shows on their podcasts. But that one… It has nothing to do with who they are or what they might talk about. It’s just annoying AF. And so I don’t listen to it.

Dear Mr. President, you “don’t think a judge should allow fake news to be written day after day after day….” So… you’re going to shut down The National Enquirer and the like, right? Right?!

He wants to put his name on everything. Can’t we oblige him by putting his name on all the most awful things we can think of? Like a human waste treatment facility? Or maybe we can #Santorum his ass?

The concept of “ripe” in legal cases needs to be updated. If some asshole proposes a bill/EO/etc. that will DEFINITELY harm people, we shouldn’t have to wait for it to go into effect to then undo it. We shouldn’t be able to PREVENT it in the first place. Duh!

Someone said, whenever he’s asked who do you work for, everyone should respond: The American People. Yes! I would amend it slightly: The American People. And who do you work for?

#Tramp wants his name on everything. Every bill that Democrats propose until he’s gone should include the acronym T.R.U.M.P. like “T.R.U.M.P. corruption Act” or “T.R.U.M.P. Fascism Act” etc.

This - and every - election cycle, Dems need to basically do one thing: point at the Rep. opponent and say: Do not believe a single word s/he says. Every election, ALL Rep. make 100s of promises, just to get elected, then they do JACK SHIT towards those promises. #Tramp did it. So will s/he.

Check the record. Democrats DELIVER every time the Republicans fuck up the economy. EVERY. TIME. Republicans destroy the deficit, can't balance the budget. Democrats do it EVERY TIME. #DemocratsDeliver.

I hope all 50 States are preparing HARD for when he declares he’s running in 2028. He keeps talking about it. Yes it’s against the law but, so…? Every State should preemptively announce: “he will not be allowed to be on our ballot”. Let him lose sleep and go apeshit well in advance.

Rewatching Episodes with Matt LeBlanc, Tamsin Greig and Stephen Mangan - OMG it's so funny. Matt plays "himself". If you haven't seen it, give it a try. The premise is perfect. The acting is wonderful. The dialog - superb. Other superlatives apply.

I would love it if, when #OrangeShitForBrains says something is powerful, someone would ask him about it. “Iran has very powerful caves.” “Just a minute, Mr. President…. What is so powerful about a cave?”

The media should relentlessly and consistently refer to Trump‘s bribe plane from Qatar with some snarky name. Bribe Force One. Air Force Deux. Qatar force one. Can you think of other good names?

Just a thought… I can’t recall any news reports of ICE agents being truly threatened or attacked or shot at, so I’m going to assume that it hasn’t happened. So……. why do they have guns?

Somehow, democrats need to get a slogan like “Democrats deliver!” oslt and point to all the progress (historical and recent) they’ve accomplished and state what they plan on doing when they are in power. If Mamdani can do what he did, let’s all get on that train.

Anyone who thinks “Love it or leave it” about the USA is a gotcha is not a patriot, lacks back knowledge about US history and independence and really shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

It’s just embarrassing to see grown men writhing in EXCRUCIATING agony while waiting for a whistle only to them stand up and walk away moments later with nary a limp. Can’t we mock them?

Anyone who marches around wearing a mask is not “Proud to be an American”. They are cowards afraid they’ll lose their jobs, family or friends because of their beliefs. Either own it or shut the fuck up.

Has no one at FS1 ever watched a football match? Uruguay scored in the 45+5’ minute, not the 50th minute. One is the end of the first half; the other is the start of the second half. One is 2-1 at the break; the other is 1-1. Very different.
