I find it interesting that an immigrant, who is adamantly anti-illegal immigration, builds a car that can jump over border barriers. #Musk #FlyingCar #Tesla

Most people outside of the US won't understand this, but here, your life path is dictated by the middle name your parents give you. You want to be a college professor? Sorry, your middle name is Edwin. You're a bookstore owner or librarian.

No wonder he's always smiling and laughing. He just robbed Gotham City blind and he used a clown to do it. #Lutnick

Trump demands the Nobel Peace Prize. Winner of Nobel Peace Prize works at the International Criminal Court prosecuting war crimes. Trump Administration sanctions International Criminal Court. Also, Trump Administration, and it's favorite country - Russia, might be guilty of several war crimes.

And according to comments in this thread, the airlines are complicit, after bribing Trump for renaming Palm Beach Airport after him. They are the ones who requested the name change and got this provision removed. #FAA #Trump

This man is insane. Where's Jim Jordan? Where's Ted Cruz? Where's Rubio, and Grassley, and Kennedy? Tillis? Scalise? Thune? Collins? What are you doing? You're allowing this insanity? Invoke the 25th Amendment or you're done in DC. He's not a GOD.

Every palm tree and massage table will be bugged.

How I arrived on Bluesky

GOP: "The Democrats are the party of Racism, Slavery, and the KKK!" Also GOP: "Our White Supremacy voting bloc isn't happy with our candidate. We were depending on them to win the state." #Ohio

Damn. Now he's renaming the years!

This guy is about a week away from issuing Letters of Marque

I did "Nazi" that coming. #Musk #Tesla futurism.com/advanced-tra...

OK. Are we just taunting people at this point? #GirlWithTheDragonTattoo

Life comes at you fast

RUBIO: "I mean, he was considering attacking CANADA at one point. Can you imagine losing Iranian AND Canadian oil? "But he didn't. He chose not to." "So, thank God for President Trump. He's kept prices low in retrospect."

Has anyone seen Edward Snowden lately? He seemed pretty able-bodied and Putin has seemed pretty desperate. #Russia

Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.

This man is NOT an American. He doesn't UNDERSTAND America. He doesn't BELIEVE in America. He doesn't SUPPORT America. But he DOES understand, believes in, and supports everything America stands against. #Trump #FreePress

Trump Derangement Syndrome is defined by psychiatrists as taking note of problematic situations coming from a source and not focusing on functional things not coming from the aforementioned source. Like Firefighters focusing on burning houses, but not applauding non-burning homes. Deranged!

With the right word-play, a talented journalist could get him to confess to just about anything.

It's funny how the current people in power can't do anything until you vote to keep them in power again. So what exactly were they doing for all those years? Helping YOU? Or their friends and themselves? Who did they keep their promises to? What promises did they break? #GOP #Trump #DNC #Mamdani

“To leave no loopholes Hitler exacted from all officers and men of the armed forces an oath of allegiance—not to Germany, not to the constitution, which he had violated by not calling for the election of Hindenburg’s successor, but to himself.” -Shirer, Rise & Fall of the Thrid Reich, p. 375

"I don't need to follow the Law, I'm RICH!"

Sounds like he knows the GOP is toast this November.

If you have to give it to yourself, then you have zero honor. Even a CHILD understands this.

Which election?

Soylent American Blue™ coming to a store near you. It's gonna happen.

HAARETZ is newly reporting Netanyahu was warned about an attack before 10/7 and didn’t tell 🇮🇱 security chiefs. Will American media even mention this? The new report: www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Only REAL patriots say "thank you" for the current gas prices. We'd like to hear a little gratitude for the cyclospora thing and the measles, too.

This isn't criticism. This is instruction. The MAGA doesn't believe in commonality.

BESSENT: "Buy our whiskey or we'll invade Vancouver like those Chinese aliens did in the Phantom Menace!"

These guys always talk how great the US was in the 50s watching Pat Boone and Donna Reed and everyone mowed their lawns on Sunday in a house they already own. The Fed Corporate tax rate was 52% in 1955. Its now 21%, or less, thanks to Republicans. It's not Communism. It's Fair Share.

Cool. We're getting "Death Panels" after all. I bet the people who warned us about them are mad.

Just like in the Sermon on the Mount.

NOW OPTIMUS PRIME IS DEAD?? This is the WORST timeline! Everyone, protect Sir Ian McKellen at all costs!

It's just barely past 8am and it's already 80° in my part of Southern California. #weather

If someone was willing to be Batman, Dolly Parton probably would have funded them.

If only there was a Federal policy where sick Americans could get the affordable care they needed to return to their jobs healthy and productive, instead of dying and leaving young children behind. Hmmm. 🤔

You'd think this would a perfect way to get transgender people out of regular society while also boosting recruitment numbers. But no, Hegseth gets the "ick," so nothing practical can be done about a "problem" they all fetish upon.

TRUMP: "Later today I'll be having a nice salad courtesy of Taylor Farms at no cost. Taylor Farms! Donated heavily to my campaign. Fabulous fresh greens and lettuce with all the power of GLP-1 weight loss, but all natural."

I guess that means we all get a tax rebate, then.

I did not need to end the day hearing Salma Hayek has become a grandmother.

What does the US Constitution, Article III, Section 3, Clause 1 say about "aid and comfort to our enemies?" #Trump #NorthKorea

We're at a "Golden Age" of America where the average American can't afford to poison themselves. #Trump
