We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

Love this. Now do Elon.

I sincerely hope that whoever’s the next democrat president, goes after this corrupt little shit, locks him up and throws away the god damn key.

Amen.

Those two traitors, Thomas and Alito, should be impeached from the court for dissenting, which means they voted to take away the right of states and their Constitutional right to run their own elections & give it to election denier Trump.

Thankfully, the Courts hold. For now. Either way, Fuck You Thomas and Alito. Oh, and you too, Cavanaugh. Despicable cowards. You will be reviled by History. We will make sure of that.

You don’t have to sell us on the midterms. “If you elect these guys, you're gonna have months and months of impeachments. They want impeachments to take place, trials to take place, they wanna go after the president and his family, and people within the cabinet." - Fox & Fiends

This is not the country in which I was born. Shameful and unforgivable what the GOP has become, but more than anything, sad. Just damn sad.

Renee Good’s killing was captured on video. The public saw an ICE agent pull the trigger, but under current law, even that was not enough to require DHS to formally notify Congress.

Facts.

He's not lying to us, MAGA. We all know he's full of shit. You Talibangelicals are the only ones stupid enough to fall for his lying, grifting fuckery. Happy Independence Day, Asswipes. Enjoy the fake patriotism led by the biggest traitor in U.S. history. Y'all are in a racist, bigoted cult.

Wouldn’t it be epic if Gen X never got to win a Presidential Election, mainly due to the obsequious selfishness of the Boomers? Asking for a friend.

A Democratic Socialist born in 1997 just beat a Democrat who first took office in 1997

Immediately hunkering down in the Situation Room because the Epstein Files are getting released doesn’t exactly scream “I have nothing to hide.”

BREAKING: NYT Confirms Trump Is Supervising Kennedy Center Tarp Removal As His Agents Appear to Be Indicating It May Stay Up Indefinitely—Effectively Taking *Kennedy's* Name Off the Center As Well As Trump's in One of the Most Petty and Vindictive Acts Ever Taken By Any President

I can't imagine a better candidate than George. He knows precisely who and what Trump is and he can discuss it eloquently. And he knows the law, that thing that Trump tramples on daily. And- there's no candidate that Trump would rather see lose, than him. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...

washingtonpost.comHe nearly joined Trump’s administration. Now he’s running for Congress as a Democrat.Ten years ago, George Conway almost took a job with Donald Trump, then became one of his biggest critics. He lost his marriage but found a new political identity.

Replying to @angrystaffer.bsky.social

Could these people be more hapless? Trump starts a war, threatens civilization, gets bored with it, made a mess and bails -- leaving oil tankers stuck in the Strait of Hormuz for ransom -- then sends Vance (remind me of his perceived talent again) to clean it up. He fails. Now what?

Amen.

Well, if you're feeling burned (yet again) by legacy media completely flopping (yet again) after Trump's bullshit presidential address, just a gentle reminder there's never been a better time to support independent media. Subscribe: charlotteclymer.substack.com
