Neither funny nor fun. Honestly not sure why you’d follow me. Anybody upset about pronouns in a bio deserves to be upset (he/him).

The Secret Police have to stay secret because Americans might be mean to them? People on the public payroll have to be... well, public. We pay for them. We deserve to know where our money is going, and what is being done in our name.

🎶It’s just one of those DAYS…🎵

Donald Trump gave Elon Musk a blank check to gut the government, fire countless federal employees, and destroy decades of progress in research, public service, and soft power. So yes, it's hilarious that they're fighting so publicly, but never forgot the havoc they wreaked first.

Trump expected Merz to be rooting for the Nazis?

An eloquently short encapsulation of what I suspect is the actual strategy…

Rufo like every couple months is like “hey everyone I have no core principles except racism and self-aggrandizement and I lie about everything” and then there are 12 NY Times profiles of him as a bold intellectual

Cost estimate of the House-passed "Big Beautiful Bill" is out It'd be the largest cut to Medicaid+CHIP and SNAP in history while still increasing deficits by $2.4 trillion due to $3.8 trillion in tax cuts This'd be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history

It is FUCKED UP that they are bringing up the notions of campaign contributions as evidence here. And like, it’s fucked up in LAYERS. It’s a Turducken of an accusation, and Leavitt is relying on the complexity of her bullshit to shield her from accountability.

If I’m understanding this story appropriately, the suspect’s family has been detained, with the possibility of deportation, despite not having even been accused of having any involvement with any crime, nor even suspected of having an undocumented status.

Here’s the thing though: she’s not making it worse for ANY of the people whose opinion she cares about. They ONLY want her to double down and be as shitty and vindictive as possible. This is a net win for her, because she has no shame.

I’m old enough to remember the scads of white nationalists who came out of the woodwork during the 2016 election cycle. This is revisionist history at best: there were multiple “Blue Wave” elections, and Democrats did nothing substantively to make sure this couldn’t happen again.

BREAKING: Man who only pays taxes when he feels like it for publicity reasons utterly disgusted at budget bill he will not be paying for unless he feels like it, for publicity reasons.

Joe Walsh only opposes Trump because Trump is much better at the exact same bullshit Walsh was doing already. The best way to demonstrate his metamorphosis isn’t changing party affiliation, it is to starting eating literal actual shit, and don’t ever stop.
