The GOP keeps saying the BBB will bring down the deficit. Today's numbers show that lie to be bold.

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social : "bro, you just put the entire world on high alert. we’re all just sitting here, chewing our fingernails and wondering when the missiles are going to start flying, and now you’re blithering a mile a minute about ‘magnificent,’ ‘high-quality’ flagpoles?"

Those women again. . .

The Mormon paper calling for an apology.

Don't we all wish competent people were still in charge?

Russian asbestos with Trump's face on it.

The women are giving the drunk guy a dressing down today.

Remember this:

They're selling OUR lands to finance tax cuts for the rich.

Guess what.

Slotkin FTW

The Trump administration is shutting down services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide hotline. “This is a death sentence potentially to thousands of youth across the United States.”

"If ever there were a time for a 9-0 unanimous opinion in support of the basic rule of law and the fundamental nature and importance of our adversarial system free from political pressures and coercion by the government the executive orders attacking the legal profession itself should result in one"

Here's what you can do:

Good news for us sane Floridians:

Then there is this:

Here's what is actually happening:

The evidence all points to the fact that it is so highly unlikely the phone will be made in the US, their statement is implausible.

They plan to sell off OUR land to finance tax breaks for the rich. Guess who the buyers will be?

Who could possibly afford to buy these lands? Nevermind.

"Our work ahead doesn’t just comprise seizing back the reins of government and reestablishing the rule of law and accountability. As Judge William Young, Sen. Tina Smith and Ed Shelleby bravely demonstrated, we must also make the moral case to the public and win back the soul of America."

"“I am hesitant to draw this conclusion—but I have an unflinching obligation to draw it—that this represents racial discrimination and discrimination against America’s LGBTQ community,” the judge said in a departure remarkable for any jurist. He added, “Have we fallen so low? Have we no shame?”"

TNR is not afraid to write the truth.

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social The Big Important Thing that Dear Leader rushed home to work on? could it be the Donnyphone? folks, I shit you not. In a press release, Trump Mobile calls it “a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States.

Scathing assessment of 🤡💩's heath: "He’s never met the mental/emotional/intellectual demands, and perception is everything, so his physical decline is the last penny to drop and his clear physical decline is scaring the shit out of the Trump Regime."

There are no words for my level of outrage.

Remember

VA removes protections, allowing denial of veteran care & provider hiring discrimination based on marital status & politics.

Some VERY good news!

"[GOP], they refuse to take responsibility for the consequences of their fucked-up actions. they fetishize guns, they openly call for “second amendment solutions” — and then when shit goes violently sideways, and someone ends up dead, they point their fingers at anyone but their own guilty selves."

Try it, you'll like it.

"Doctors at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals nationwide could refuse to treat unmarried veterans and Democrats under new hospital guidelines imposed following an executive order by Donald Trump."

Latinos for Trump: "But what we are witnessing are arbitrary measures to hunt down people who are complying with their immigration hearings – in many cases, with credible fear of persecution claims – all driven by a Miller-like desire to satisfy a self-fabricated deportation goal"

Ice picks up a child in foster care in Florida.

There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear. There's a man with a gun over there, telling me I've got to beware. . .

MAGA has political amnesia.

I miss so much having a moral, articulate, mannerly and distinguished president.
