As gently as I can put it, the Administration is certainly governing as though they do not feel constrained by the US public being the most-armed public in modern history.

I didn’t get that so much of BobbyJr.’s contempt for vaccines came from a hatred of autistic people calcified as eugenics. And I’m embarrassed. What a disgraceful waste of someone else’s name and face.

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

And as soon as it actually happens, they'll insist they bear no responsibility at all.

USA to coal miners - Drop Dead. Literally. And take your towns with you www.post-gazette.com/business/pow...

They're gonna do it anyway.

The reason DEI exists is so that competent, qualified people don't get passed over in favor of mediocre incompetent white men who had a well-connected buddy. Or so that utter morons who share war plans on the group chat don't hire their brother and get away with it bc they're white dudes.

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

SCOOP: These are the 10 DOGE operatives inside the Social Security Administration. The team appears to be among the largest DOGE units deployed to any government agency. This includes a number of young engineers whose presence has not been reported. Read the full story:

These numbers are complete lies but the underlying argument — that Democrats are paying illegal immigrants to come here and become voters — is 100% Great Replacement Theory. He’s spouting the exact same racist conspiracy that inspired mass shootings in Pittsburgh and Buffalo.

Kinda worse than secession tbh. Its literally the "protect but not bind" thing where they want the benefits of being part of the United States but with none of the obligations

Patriotic Democrats promote Bill to Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy. The ELON MUSK Bill.

Like when hospitals sell off their assets and then rent them back... and then fold.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

Grimly wondering who will be the first Congressperson or Senator to get arrested by the current DOJ. That moment will be an inflection point in our history.

Jeez, I wonder why an organization that has people living undercover in hundreds of countries around the world would want to recruit “diverse” individuals? The stupidity is breathtaking. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

An FBI Director is supposed to be nonpartisan. Kash Patel wrote not one, not two, but THREE books for children with Trump as a king.

The new FBI director is a scam artist who sold fake pills to ‘reverse the vaxx’

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

March 2022 Marco Rubio might have been surprised to learn that a leading figure helping Russia try to achieve its war aims is February 2025 Marco Rubio.

It’s only a matter of time before Trump blames Poland for being invaded by the Nazis.

All the worst people seem to live in Texas.

Our president is directly and arbitrarily screwing over thousands of Americans. He's also screwing over entire communities and endangering our shared legacy. The ultimate goal, I wager, is to privatize national parks, the weather service, NASA, etc, and further enrich his cronies. You gonna let him?

Who has really sacrificed most to help Ukraine.

Musk, in his quest for enlightenment through microdosing ketamine, accidentally took one too many “inspirational” doses and slipped into a legendary K-hole—right in the middle of a board meeting. Now, instead of tweeting about rockets, ... Read full article at tinyurl.com/235bwrkr

Imagine this headline read "Dems plan to give George Soros the tax information of every American." Sean Hannity would self-combust live on air.

I suspect Trump's "peace through weakness" policy will not work as intended.

For *years* now, like every few months I have to write a variation on the same post about how Elon is not about free speech, and that he's deeply censorial. And days later I always see yet another media person or politician refer to what he's doing as "free speech absolutism." It's so stupid.

Some more Master Race BS.
