He's the worst kind of monster

We are being governed by some of the most willfully ignorant people in US history. It's placed all of us in danger. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

WHAT THE HOLY FUCK??? This is completely insane! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/u...

This is inexcusable, intentional and it is 100% the fault of the Trump "administration". The cruelty is the point. I wonder if Ghislaine Maxwell is in any danger of running out of toilet paper? www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

More shit Mike Johnson doesn’t know.

It's shameful that we are allowing a brain worm addled moron with no medical training and his team of MAGA monsters to stop life-saving treatments and research wapo.st/49gZB6w

Below is an excerpt from a 1990 Playboy interview with Trump. What Trump seems to not know was that even during China's darkest days they had mass insubordination among their troops at Tianamen Square. I expect our troops would stand strong against tyranny. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insubor...

"We are what we always were in Salem, but now the little crazy children are jangling the keys of the kingdom, and common vengeance writes the law!" From The Crucible by Arthur Miller

Isn't Trump proud of his tariffs? Doesn't he want us to see how much China is paying each ous for all the stuff we buy from them? Why is the "administration" opposed to printing it on each invoice and receipt? Too liberating I suppose?

I believe attacks attacks on the media are in my opinion not being properly framed by the media and by activists. Trump wrongly claimed that attacks on him are attacks on his base. I think that's an effective strategy. When they attack the press they are attacking us.
