This is pathetic

Former President Barack Obama issued a warning about the future of American democracy, while speaking at an event in Connecticut. Obama cautioned that the country is “dangerously close” to normalizing behavior “consistent with autocracies.”

I’m shocked having someone write your essay doesn’t make you smarter

Compare and contrast scenes from yesterday in America. On the one hand, Trump's low-energy Dear Leader parade (that cost you $45 million). On the other, millions of people across the country gathering peacefully to say: Here, we have no kings.

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

Honestly, I can’t believe they got Melania to come.

This is chilling to watch and utterly unacceptable in the United States of America. As a former Senator, I’m calling on all current members to speak out on behalf of Sen. Padilla and defend him and the Senate against these outrageous attacks.

That’s not what the military is supposed to do. That’s called a military coup.

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

This is actually a perfect joke

Newsom got Trump so heated that he pulled out his classic revenge move: trying to get him arrested

Drag performers are expected to attend the musical alongside Trump — who after changing leadership at the Kennedy Center, said he would end drag shows there.

Thou Shalt Not Fire Reporters for Standing Against Fascism.

I want an alternative to Twitter to survive and thrive I think it’s important for BS to grow as a way to offset or diminish the cultural and political impact that Twitter has. This is why I care.

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

So sick of these gang members working difficult jobs and paying tens of billions of dollars in federal, state and local taxes for decades. You just know they're biding their time, then WHAM they'll start doing gang shit when they're senior citizens and whatnot.

The President of the United States is advocating for arresting the duly-elected Governor of California for his SPEECH He thereafter admitted that the Governor of California had committed NO CRIME—but he still wants him arrested Spend as much time as you need processing what that means for America

Chrimson headed partridge ♥️

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Fox keeps proving there’s still more stupidity to come.

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little." ‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.” So a napkin is a little tablecloth. 10/10, no notes.

Can’t go wrong with baby fox pics. #foxoftheday #foxkits #foxlove #nature #wildlife #photography #landscape #blueskymonday

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

Warnock: I hear people attack poor people and act like it’s a crime to be poor, rather than to recognize it’s criminal for so many people to be poor. They do all of this in the name of Jesus… Jesus is the biggest victim of identity theft in the United States

You have been watching the greatest economic disaster strategy from an American President in history.

HAPPY 35TH BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST TELESCOPE EVER!! THANK YOU FOR GIVING US SUCH BEAUTIFUL AND ICONIC IMAGES OVER THE YEARS!!! 🌌🤩

I want a president who is tougher on Putin than he is on Harvard.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

The dark web vs. the deep web (hint: they’re not the same) The dark web is only a small fraction (0.01%) of the deep web, which contains Internet content that is not searchable by your standard search engines, and their content is extremely different. 🧵⬇️

The Trump administration’s worldview in a nutshell: If you’re white, you’re all right. If you’re brown, get out of town.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

We knew exactly what this administration was going to do because it was written in Project 2025. Folks can be surprised at how quickly it has moved, but no one can act like they didn't know.
