Trump will apparently give anyone a pardon including Sean P. Diddy Combs. 50 Cent, another wealthy Black rapper, wants to tell Trump that Combs talked trash about him...so who knows? Maybe if Combs buys enough of Trump's crypto he'll end up like those reality TV tax cheats.

This isn't just a policy failure. It’s a humanitarian collapse.

Catherine Fitts, an investment banker and former public official just explained whst Musk, Palantir, and Trump are doing better than anyone. She calls it “The Data Beast.” Not sci-fi—a real control grid trial. We’re the lab rats and we will lose our freedom. 🐀📡 Credit: Danny Jones Podcast

Studies have shown that these nicknames resonated particularly well with Trump supporters and registered Republicans, suggesting that his labeling strategy was effective in reinforcing his base's views, a strategy that simplifies complex political narratives www.businessinsider.com/why-donald-t...

America elects Presidents, not Kings! Our Constitution was built on checks and balances, not blind loyalty to power. Long-standing democratic norms are under assault, and we're staring down a full-blown constitutional crisis. This is not how a democracy works shop.beingliberal.org/collections/...

They didn't ban Romeo and Juliet. They banned free thinking.

The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

It was never about the law.

Too close to home?

Happy Pride! 🌈

Turns out, Canada isn't interested in being the 51st state after all. Shocking, right?

Well, that escalated quickly. From "making America great" to using the Constitution as a substitute for Charmin – it's quite the policy arc. Bold. Innovative, even. You have to admire the commitment, though. Tanking the economy? Sure! Dismantling federal services? Why not! As long as we own the libs

On May 31, 1921, 300 people died in the Tulsa Race riots, most of them Black, at the hands of a White mob. One of the worst race riots in U.S. history, it lasted two days. Hundreds of people were injured, and more than 1000 Black-owned homes and businesses were destroyed.

Are we "great" yet? From the article: Saroukos (the wife of an officer in the US Army) said she’s sharing her experience to warn people of the increased risks of traveling to the U.S. “It’s made it physically impossible for me to even ever enter the United States ever again,” she said.

Cat 5 landing at Taco Lago? Thoughts and prayers.

This shit totally belongs to the Jerry Springer show 😭... high as a kite, white trash fathering collectively 19 children with 7 women.

This a best medical metaphor. The analogy is perfect. America suffers from a parasitic disease. That can lead to host death primarily through tissue damage and organ failure caused by overwhelming parasite loads.

Knowing the types of science denial helps you identify when someone is denying science and how they are doing it. Knowledge is power, this is why politicians seeking control limit your access to knowledge.

If they can make one person disappear, they can make all of us disappear one by one. The Trump Administration is threatening to suspend one of the most sacred constitutional rights: habeas corpus—your right to not disappear into government custody. www.rutherford.org/publications...

It's not an rocket science, right? Plumbers and electricians are enough.

All the lefties fled to Bluesky following Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover. CEO Jay Graber isn’t your typical tech CEO. While Zuckerberg leaned into digital monarchy, she wore a shirt that read: “A World Without Kings.” She’s not just rebelling. She’s rebuilding. www.wired.com/story/big-in...

Tesla Vs BYD... Americans should learn what #BYD stands for.

It's not an accident that Poland is the most pro-American country in Europe. Poles and Americans are caricatures of each other... Pussy grabbing, Stormy Daniels and ridiculing a handicapped reporter made Donald Trump even more appealing to the MAGA crowd. Today in Poland, a right wing candidate with

There are 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution. Not one is "bible", "Jesus", "Judeo", "Christian" or "God". Separation of church and state guarantees ALL Americans the right to practice ANY religion. Or none. Which part of "religious freedom" is not as clear as a church bell?

…I don’t need Kash Patel to tell me Jeffrey committed suicide because I know better than he does the truth of the matter. Of course, you’ll never convince a conspiracy fan that Epstein wasn’t murdered. But for those rational people reading? Whatever doubt you ever had about Epstein’s demise?...

Elect a clown, expect a circus — and oh look, the tent’s back up. Our Bozo 47 design is a brutally honest tribute to the political joke that just won’t end. Featuring a faded Trump face, clown nose, and retro Bozo lettering, this design is as washed out as his policies — and that spray tan with it'

This is ridiculous

I believe multiple presidents have misused the pardon power. That's why I support a Constitutional amendment that would limit the power. This is long overdue.

What a fucking loser making a billboard of himself and posting it — I believe this is as real as his assassination attempt.

Watching Republican Christians attempting to steamroll their ‘Big, Beautiful Bill” through Congress, one that will bring generational sorrow and suffering to hundreds of millions of human beings in poverty and lack while further elevating the wealthy, I cling to the hope that somewhere beyond this l

Will Trump chicken out as he always does?

The White House began "offboarding" Musk as a special government employee on Wednesday night, the BBC understands. His role was temporary and his exit is not unexpected, but it comes a day after Musk criticised the legislative centrepiece of Trump's agenda.

We need an update... if this is still "home of the brave" we must start clarifying - "home of the brave WOMEN." We salute you, unknown Sister!

Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary is afraid of public transportation... 🤦🏼🤦🏽‍♀️ Silly me. I thought his job was to make public transportation more effective, accessible, and safe for all!
