How steeply have we fallen as a leader of the free world when our highest court ignores the rights of individuals in favor of the despotic desires of a dictator who has trampled the rights of immigrants and citizens alike. Have we reached the bottom yet?
Looks like trumpy is gunning for your job, @dieworkwear.bsky.social
He might be a corrupt useless slug, but he tried to help me steal the 2020 election so you probably should vote for him.
The ineptitude, if not outright corruption, throughout this administration from the Executive down to the USPS is damn scary. This is the inherent danger when a corrupt criminal is serving as the titular head of government who appoints cronies in every branch and agency. #ImpeachNow
It's just astounding to me. trump has spent billions on a needless war with Iran - with no end in sight. And, to date, has spent just shy of $4 billion pointlessly because of his and the GOP's anti-green ideology. Constant waste and an absent Congress with the GOP just kissing his ass.
Trump administration will pay German energy firm RWE $1.22 billion to abandon plans to build wind farms off the coasts of New York, California and Louisiana. Including this project, the government has so far spent roughly $3.9 billion to get companies to terminate 12 offshore wind leases
No further proof needed of the absolute depth of corruption and disdain for the rule of law by this administration.
How about that? Mr. "No More Wars," FIFA Peace Prize Recipient is a war criminal (as if we didn't already know this). Just more evidence that FOTUS must be impeached, immediately. #8647
We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.
Warsh is undoubtedly hesitating because raising interest rates would piss the boss off. We no longer have an independent Fed. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/b...
What a big baby. And, of course, he thinks each entire state is a single entity that voted against him (yes, he's an idiot), rather than seeing the tens of millions of republicans living in those states who will suffer because of his vindictive actions. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/24/b...
Which means... anyone? Anyone? It probably doesn't. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/07...
Hey, Blueskyers! I need y'all to find the closest Freedom Fuel station to you and get exactly 86 cents of gas. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...
This right here: straight up crime. Market manipulation & insider trading by the one person who has more influence on the markets than anyone. The worst part? trump knows this & knows Congress will do absolutely nothing to stop him. This MoFo needs to be impeached. Now. www.cnbc.com/2026/07/02/t...
Mark my word: come January 21, 2029, no one will be able to find this ring.
All told, 321 diamonds, 56 sapphires, 13 emeralds and six rubies encrust the watch-sized gold ring presented this week to Bill White, the U.S. ambassador to Belgium, to give to U.S. President Donald Trump. https://to.pbs.org/44batiO
Undoubtedly, Polymarket has a line on this investigation being abruptly terminated in 3, 2, 1..... www.nytimes.com/2026/06/26/u...
Call me crazy, but I sense a pattern here. Break something (Iran deal, reflecting pool, etc.), *claim* to have fixed it (even when it isn't), take credit for being the only one that could fix it.
CNN shows a side by side of J.D. Vance taking credit for what Obama already had in place — an Iran deal Trump ripped up before killing a lot of people and wasting a lot of money (at Israel’s request) H/T @acyn.bsky.social
Hegseth: "We are restoring freedom to our troops" who no longer need to have flu and other vaccines. Also, Pentagon: "All trainees at the base are now being required to get the flu shot in order to stem the spread of the virus." This admin is full of f'ing fools. www.dailymail.com/health/artic...
Sure wish we had adults representing U.S. interests, instead of a bunch of dishonest, grifting "Mini-Me's." www.nytimes.com/live/2026/06...
Isn't this just the perfect metaphor for trump's administration? www.nytimes.com/2026/06/19/u...
Bradley Cooper? Hollywood can work magic, but even @libradunn1.bsky.social would be a stretch. So, @semperwry.bsky.social or @michaelfanone.bsky.social?
What I would like to know is: how the FUCK is this legal? Where is Congress?
According to a new Reuters report, Trump and his sons have added over $2.3B to their family fortune from their main crypto ventures — while handing their investors $2.3B in losses. The grifter-in-chief's crypto corruption knows no bounds.
The AP reports "U.S. Central Command said in a social media post that U.S. forces intercepted “unprovoked Iranian attacks” and responded with self-defense strikes." Pro tip: if you start a war and continue acts of war in blockading a nation's ships, you forfeit the right to call these "unprovoked."
When war becomes an “excursion,” military attacks are just a “love tap” and a “ceasefire” is still in effect while fighting is going on. Orwellian!
Kinzinger is a Republican who refuses to kiss the ring. He's a man of principle & he speaks the facts here in this video. He knows the game trump is trying to play & he understands the importance of stopping trump & the GOP from stealing the mid-term elections. Polls open for 3 more hours: vote YES.
If you live in Virginia, tomorrow you have a huge opportunity to make it clear to the GOP that if they want to win, it won’t be by changing the rules and redrawing maps. At least, not without a fight. Vote YES on the redistricting vote, and push back!

Reckless fucking asshole. Is it any wonder he drives us and the rest of the world nuts? Going from "nuclear weapon control" to regime change without even the most basic consideration of what that means. He acts like a tyrannical egomaniac.
Israel and the U.S. have launched strikes against Iran, with explosions reported in Tehran and air raid sirens sounding across Israel. n.pr/4bfWbl2
“Judge Cannon’s courage and judicial resolve on these important due process issues should be recognized and taught in law school classrooms across America.” - Trump’s lawyer Kendra Wharton. Oh, trust me, it will be, as a great example of judicial malpractice.. www.politico.com/news/2026/02...
I see the "Board of Peace" is wasting no time and getting right down to serious business.
TRUMP JUST NOW: "It's always nice to be young and handsome. Doesn't mean we have to like you. I don't like young handsome men. Women… it's a like. Men, I don't have any interest. Good. That's right. That's right."
It should not be a surprise to anyone that this administration has dragged America into a dick measuring contest. wapo.st/3NMw9wI
Watching this video, I'm not ashamed to say I'm crying. It's particularly depressing knowing after learning how selfless and amazing Alex Pretti was. As someone said, if an ICE agent had been injured on that scene, Alex would have been the first to render aid.
Rest in Peace Alex Jeffrey Pretti🙏🏾 The VA ICU Nurses send him off right 💔
Now, I don't recognize this country. We have a fascist regime murdering people in our streets and then lying about the victims. We must put a stop to this. NOW. @kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social
I'm pissed & angry. I was pissed & angry after Renee Good was murdered, now they've murdered another innocent bystander, an observer, a nurse. When will this stop? I have called my Senators & I will keep pushing them, & my Representatives, to defund & destroy ICE, the DHS, & impeach Noem & Trump.
Federal agents in Minneapolis wrestled Alex Pretti to the ground and secured the handgun he was carrying moments before shooting him multiple times, according to a Washington Post analysis of video footage. Read more: https://wapo.st/4qGOx8M
