Just like with his nauseating old man... presidenting is "easy" when you don't actually do it.

#ProudBlue I actually love this idea. I wish we could implement it. We aren’t United anyway, so what does it hurt?

This sentence, typed in her dissent, should scare the living fuck out of everyone in this country. "This Supreme Court is an existential threat to the rule of law." – Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

A large passel of men armed with automatic rifles to apprehend a purported illegal immigrant (who wasn't that)? Authorities don't even do that if the target was active shooters or someone threatening to kill a family. Gutless overgrown children imagining themselves on a dangerous military mission.

Unthinkable evil.

SEN: @ossoff.bsky.social: “WHO’S GETTING FIRED AT THE VA?” COLLINS: 🤷🏼‍♂️

They're investigating themselves. This should come out well. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This is another monumental defeat for the Constitution, separation of powers, and the rule of law, courtesy of a rogue Supreme Court that consistently fails to uphold any of those fundamental tenets. www.bbc.com/news/article...

SOME? Now? We're only up to "some"?

Two weeks ago millions of people in this country marched saying "NO KINGS." The Supreme Court this week responded, "SORRY FOLKS, YES, WE HAVE A KING."

Remember her?! 👇 Still. A. Heroine. 😎✨

Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

DESANTIS: “You’ll have an ability for food. You’ll have an ability to consult legal rights - if you have that.” History has seen this darkness before. But this is the first time it has been broadcast live.

Sen. Roger Marshall lies that Trump's big bill includes "no taxes on Social Security" (this in fact is not included in the bill)

Incredible.

Particularly chilling coming from a member of the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile there are murderers in the Middle East too. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

16 million Americans could lose their health care if the Big Ugly Bill passes. Mitch McConnell said they'll get over it. The person who loses someone they love, the mama whose baby loses care, the grandma who gets kicked out of her nursing home—they won’t just get over it.

🚨BREAKING: Around 100 JETS will be flying in to Jeff Bezos' wedding on Friday - emitting over 354 TONNES of carbon into the atmosphere. That's equivalent to what almost 30,000 CARS do in a DAY. Anyone else find the super rich's disregard for the climate disgusting?

He’s a business man.
