Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

It shocks me that such a law is even needed.

“Running the government like a business” is just another way of saying that we should privatize government services afforded to everyone. You know who would love that? Wall Street and big corporations. Don’t buy into the myth. https://youtu.be/hqn1uD_B70U?si=aClsRAYTJHYGXpB4

And many others, too, apparently.

I am tired of Elaine Stritch constantly yelling at me about having any fun because no. No I'm not.

I love all the handwringing about Zohran’s lack of experience when a 19 year-old called Big Balls has recently been made a permanent federal employee with the title Senior Advisor at the GS-15 pay grade in the General Services Administration.

Constitution amended by EO: Amend 9: The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the President A 10: The powers not delegated to the US are reserved to the President A 10a (new): Powers not yet thought up are the President's

<s>Why? There's a lot of criminal enterprises out there we don't tax.</s>

Because Donald knows that if you defund homeless people, they will go away.

Insanity today @newyorker.com

Pay attention, folks. He has the nuclear codes.

TRUTH!

Data, please.

We know Trump has a lust for power, a need to dominate women, & an unbridled libido--the rapist's trifecta--& a civil finding equivalent to rape. Then there's the "grab 'em by the p---y" thing. He seems like a perfect partner for Epstein.

Do they?

I'm waiting for the EO mandating goose-stepping for all uniformed service members while on duty This must apply to WH staff, too. Especially cabinet members A separate EO will require the new salute, straight arm extended w/ a fist knuckles up, in POTUS' presence It's all about optics, you know

America reigned on Donnie's Birthday Parade. A climate change is sweeping across the country & the world. And not a moment too soon.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

From Trump's The Carnage Ends Now inaugural speech in 2017, through the hoards of alien maniacs they claim are rampaging across America, to Noem's pledge to liberate Angelinos from the "socialists" they elected, the GOP has clearly shown the foundation of its government is a dark & violent delusion.

Is there a rule about driving while orange? He's got that brand new Tesla, After all.

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

How dare Trump salute! He does not have the right. Signed, My Dad,who dropped bombs on Nazis

All you libtards complaining about squeaky tank wheels need to think about the price of axle grease nowadays Give a guy a break!

We, the people, have spoken!

Imagine: An unmarked SUV parks across from a courthouse. 4 burly men emerge in ICE flak vests & balaclavas, grab a brown woman from the sidewalk, force her into the van, & speed off. Weeks later no one has seen her. Was this a trafficker or serial killer, or just ICE at work? How can we know?

The assassin in Minnesota got access by dressing as a cop. Imagine what someone dressed as an ICE agent could do. Or a National Guard soldier? The Cosplay Administration has opened while new boulevard of terror.

This side-by-side comparison of Kristy Noem's face then & now is jarring. Is there anything left of her that is authentic?

I know there's a lot going on, but the Secretary of Homeland Security declaring that federal troops are in California and Los Angeles to "liberate" the state and city from its duly-elected leaders really is a fourteen-alarm fire.

OBAMA APPRECIATION DAY Once the White House lawn could look like this, all smiles & confidence & love. Thank you, Barack & Michelle, for showing us how it can be done. THE WAY WE WERE

I want Trump REMOVED! I'm not in favor of impeaching him unless the Senate is prepared to convict & remove him. Impeachment w/o removal is a hollow gesture that feeds his delusion of persecution & whets his irrational rage. It makes things worse.

Let's all be the rain on this motherfucker's parade. #NoKings #NoKingsDay

When a man of Alex Padilla's statute steps forward with a question from the real planet Earth, Kristy Noem feels she's being lunged at. I suppose, in a way, she was. It can unnerving when the 4th wall of your little costume play is broken.

I don't challenge Israel's right to defend itself. But nobody's right to self defense includes the right to bomb housewives & children, or to lay siege to civilian populations, denying them water, food & medical care What's happening in Gaza stopped being self defense some time ago

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

Is that a tortilla on his head?

It that happens then he could fire the Army & let the Proud Boys take over.

One way out of endless wars is to start the One Big Beautiful War that will end them all. Then we can get to work on the price of eggs.
