#FACTS

At 9:00 AM this morning the entire Pentagon got an email inviting them to a “Christian prayer and worship service” from the Office of the Secretary of Defense. A Cabinet member directly violating the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

Taking a bribe in a very public way doesn't mean you aren't corrupt, it means your corruption is shameless.

Trump has indefinitely withdrawn federal funding for: • Investigating child sexual abuse and internet crimes against kids; • Responding to reports of missing children; • Preventing youth violence New, @propublica.org

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Impeach him! What are we waiting for. Bring the articles up over and over and over. This is crazy. Make loud noises!! Embarrass them.

Just a coincidence, right?

Well said Maureen! “My Netflix algorithm searches for “revenge,” “lives ruined” and “mayhem.” But I don’t want that in my government.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/o...

Hope everyone had a great #recordstoreday. I picked up a new Air record and then got a gem from the used $1 bin from Focus. Always a surprise going blind from that pile.

Is this who we are? 😳🇺🇸

Nintendo delays Switch 2 preorders over tariff concerns

This guy has collapsed the economy twice.

Well this won’t go over well

MSNBC just showed a montage of world leaders calling the USA idiotic, illogical, hostile, unhinged.... literally never seen anything like this. From the shining city on a hill to an object of global derision and contempt.

A more innocent time, before the threat of penguins forced his hand

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

I really hope @corybooker.com smashed Strom’s record. That guy was standing up for hate. Cory is standing up TO it. Keep it going man. We’re all proud of you. Read the letters, read the analysis, make noise and give them Hell! You got it. The world is paying attention and what you’re doing matters!

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred. As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

Give me it. ❤️

My guy, I would have been fired from Borders for accidentally sharing Oprah’s Book Club selection to a member of the media ahead of time via group text This fucken world, man

Happy to chime in!

The Trump administration's efforts to end DEI programs is hitting some unexpected targets, including a nationwide effort planting shade trees in neighborhoods to reduce extreme heat.

We 💙 links! Starting this week, we've made it even easier for newsrooms and more to track how much traffic Bluesky is sending to their sites. For those setting up analytics, Bluesky's referrer is go.bsky.app.

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

Elon Musk's DOGE says it's found $105 billion in savings. About $8.6 billion of that is actually verifiable. If we taxed billionaire income the way the rest of our income is taxed, we would raise $557 billion. But I guess no one wants to have THAT conversation.

Just thinking about what the US looked like before the EPA existed

There are more kids with measles in Texas than there are Trans Athletes in the NCAA but you don’t hear MAGA out there talking about that now do you?

One of these things is not like the others

Trump ran on lowering the price of eggs, restoring freedom of speech, ending the war in Ukraine and making America “great again.” Eggs are more expensive than ever, peaceful protestors are being arrested without cause and we’ve abandoned Ukraine. So, when exactly does the “great again” part start?
