Yesterday’s “parade” was a reminder that when Grift Tannin’ spends $45 million on something he spends $5 million on it, and pockets the other $40 million

Republican House: One Big Beautiful Bill Everyone else:

The Babbitt family now owes each and every person in the United States $.10

“no realistic American can expect from a dictator’s peace international generosity, or return of true independence, or world disarmament, or freedom of expression, or freedom of religion - or even good business.” -FDR, 1941

Anyone been able to get a gander at RFK Jr’s collection of poetry? Is there a video of him smacking a triple?

If you’re on the fence about the Catholic public (taxpayer-funded) school in Oklahoma, say it this way: “a public school where students are REQUIRED to attend Catholic mass and support the (religious) mission of the school.” Ask the Danbury Baptists how they feel about it

At this point tRump has wrecked or begun to wreck some aspect of your life as an American. This is true of every American. If you rationalize it with “he’s hurting them more than me, it’s worth it” stop calling yourself an American. North Korea always has openings in their jackboot ranks. Peace out.

Where are the Trump family women?

Having, or developing, the empathy required to raise a child with autism is terrifying to MAGA. Hence the targeting.

Having the administration mention an issue, like autism, that affects your life directly feels like a T-Rex eye peering in your car window

New tRump weakness: men who look in several different directions and have the initials “KP”

Just a thought for @mcuban.bsky.social and other well-heeled Bluesky folks - Virginia and other states are losing federal funds earmarked for preserving our history, including DEI bits. Some of what the gov is abandoning is too expensive for any one person. But these grants are a rounding error 😉

TIL that DEI was Dale Earnhardt, Inc. before it what whatever the fuck MAGA thinks it is

There is a phenomenal business opportunity available for anyone who figures out how to make money off a Tesla car without selling it intact to someone else.

Congratulations to Susan Crawford in WI!

This administration claims they can’t get one legal American resident back from El Salvador. Do tell how they’re going to play hardball with Russia or Iran.

It may feel like no one is doing anything right now to stem thie tide. I believe that, against this sort of tyranny, you only get a few chances. People realize this instinctively and don’t want to waste them in skirmish actions that do nothing. Better to organize, train, and retaliate in unison.

I'm happy to lock arms with any former Trump supporter, any progressive, any leftist, any libertarian, any socialist, any conservative...anyone...to defend the rule of law.

Welcome to autocracy. The Republic we have known for the last 240 years is gone. This is going to keep getting worse. Much worse. The courts mean nothing, the law means nothing, Congress is irrelevant. He is a malignant psychopath.

Tim Walz is currently running for president. It’s the kind of thing Trump has been doing, and it’s exactly what we need a good person to do.

When we’re talking about whether or not to shut down the government, exactly how much is left to talk about at the moment? It’s ALREADY shut down. Dems need to be the party of reality here

AOC for minority leader. Imagine her working with the leaders of Mexico and Canada. (and everyone else)

This would be a phenomenal time for Senate Democrats to exhibit testicular fortitude and support the veterans the CR would fuck over

The only reason the current administration would be cool with angering as many Americans as they have is because they’ve figured out how to persist with a minority backing - to win with fewer votes next time. There is no democracy to be had in treating with them.

Me: I could not imagine a way for FIFA to become more corrupt. 2025: hold my Ballon

Hamill/Ridley 2028. Because every word of Trump’s sentences are wrong.

Litmus test for old: if the sentence “LeBron James’ entire career is post 9-11” crushes you then yeah
