Spare me the fake outrage. None of these people showing up for court are criminals of any kind. As a prosecutor, I worked with many ICE officers who arrested violent criminals. None of them wore masks. Many of your agents are clearly ashamed to carry out your orders.

Phang: I fell out of my chair laughing my ass off—this idea that Donald Trump has suffered some kind of emotional distress because of the editing from 60 Minutes, which wasn’t even deceptive. We know you live in a state of emotional torture, Donald Trump—because: you’re the taco toddler.

Remember when Trump claimed the Biden administration wasn’t doing enough to help North Carolina recover from Hurricane Helene? Well, his administration just denied the state’s request for continued FEMA relief assistance. This hypocrisy isn’t just staggering. It’s cruel.

Lying: It's the Lord's work. Glory!

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

again all of this stuff is resignation-level for literally everyone involved www.notus.org/health-scien...

The internet is so quick

Our current president is severely mentally unwell, and the media needs to cover it now.

Kudos to whoever fixed this lunatic’s Memorial Day post…

it's unfathomably messed up that the president of the United States is using the power of his office to go after a single high school kid.

Yay Minnesota Frost!! Congratulations! 🎉🍾

I was a history teacher and I know we have to be documenting this moment. When we look back, I don’t want us to say we didn’t know what was happening. Stephen Miller, probably the most joyless man in America, wants to take away one of our most foundational rights, habeas corpus.

This wasn’t a foreign policy discussion with South Africa. This was a Klan prank show.

Flood the zone?

Expose the lies… REUTERS: Trump falsely claimed a photo showed evidence of mass killings of white South African farmers being buried—but it was actually a screenshot from a Reuters video on February 3 in Congo, showing victims of conflict with Rwanda-backed M23 rebels.

What radicalized you?

This man should not be in charge of anything—parking meters, the ring toss game at the carnival, a bouncy castle—nothing.

I want a Covid booster!!

I don’t understand “work requirements” for welfare If they had jobs, they wouldn’t need welfare! Hang on, my assistant is giving me a note. Hmmm hmm. Oh, it seems that the jobs don’t pay enough to survive. Ah ha, so I’ve identified a problem with this system

the stupidest fucking people on Earth are in charge of our government and they're burning down centuries of progress in a matter of months. WHO RUNS THE RADAR, TIM? FUCKING RADARMAN?

Ashli Babbitt tried to climb through a barricaded door and into the House Speaker’s Lobby while lawmakers and staff were still in there. She was warned. She ignored the warnings. She is not a martyr. She is an insurrectionist. Giving $5M in taxpayer money to her family is disgraceful.

One of the many differences between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is that Biden has a cancer, whereas Trump *is* a cancer. Wishing the former one well.

The Qatar bribe is *initially* going to the Department of Defense so Donald can avoid paying for jet fuel, pilots, and maintenance. It is *then* going to his "Library" so Donald can can continue avoiding personally paying such costs--and avoid paying taxes. The entire scheme is a scam.

"I did the math and it checks out. 8+6+4+7= 25th amendment"

No, Qatar‘s royal family gifting a $400 million Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet known as a “flying palace” to the government that will reportedly then go to Donald Trump‘s presidential library is not the same as France giving the Statue of Liberty to the American people.

the French didn't "give" us the Statue of Liberty. It was built with $250,000 of funds raised privately in France and $300,000 of funds raised privately in the United States.

Back the blue? Your followers BEAT the blue on Jan. 6 and then you pardoned them. Shameful.

Amazing how three additional panels can immediately correct the Trump/Lincoln portrait in front of the Dept. of Agriculture HQ’s in D.C. 😂 h/t to whoever made this. Bravo.

That’s why you’re still here.

Happy Friday to everyone who knows that fluoride in water is recommended by all dentists. Reduces tooth decay by 40-70% in children. Reduces tooth loss by 40-60% in adults. Cost-effective: For every dollar spent on water fluoridation, $38 is saved in dental care costs. #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory

but seashells!

AFM International President Tino Gagliardi issued the following statement in response to Donald Trump’s attacks on members Bruce Springsteen, member of Local 47 (Los Angeles, CA) and Local 399 (Asbury Park, NJ), and Taylor Swift, member of Local 257 (Nashville, TN) ===============================

BREAKING: The House GOP just failed to pass their Big Ugly Bill out of the Budget Committee. They're fighting over how many Americans to rip health care and food away from. Keep up the pressure.

“Poor man wanna be rich. Rich man wanna be king. The king ain’t satisfied ‘til he rules everything.”—Springsteen, Badlands

He wants Comey arrested for his 86 comment and then he goes online and threatens Bruce Springsteen. I can’t believe this is the world we live in…

Somewhere Taylor Swift is crying on a bag of money she earned legally on a plane she bought herself.
