“.. it’s unclear why the children were zip-tied during their detention or why they were detained at all.” @mysanantonio.com www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

See the richest man in the world. High as a kite and with a black eye.

It’s not Zelensky’s war or Biden’s war or Trump’s war. It is Putin’s war. Why can’t Trump simply say that? Why is he obsessed with blaming everyone else? It is a simple and obvious truth that should be stated with moral clarity. But the US president is a liar and a coward.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

It’s so fascinating to watch. How one man can sow such destruction. How one very bad, stupid, ignorant, cruel, dishonest, and psychopathic man can/will ruin and destroy so many lives. But here’s the thing. None of this is a surprise. Every single voter knew exactly who he was.

If the Trump administration’s sudden assault on thousands of foreign students legally studying at Harvard seems unprecedented, it’s because it is.

This is insane. www.bbc.com/news/article...

House Republicans passed a federal budget bill by a vote of 215 – 214 early Thursday morning that includes massive cuts for Medicare and Medicaid in order to extend tax breaks to billionaires. It now goes to the Senate.

The man with the nuclear codes walked into a wall. 😬

My God, how low can we go?

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

Insanity

Dear press: Why do questions of mental acuity activate only with the prior but not the current administration? Asking for a nation.

Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."

😳😳😳

There are no words left.

To the cartoonist who drew this, well done.

For Sure....🤚✋️ Tuck Frump

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @DennisGoris) 🇺🇸

Prices are rising nationwide and Trump’s gaslighting everyone about why. His tariffs and failed policies are driving costs up. He’s spent $200 billion more in his first 100 days than the same period last year, delivering less to Americans at a greater cost.

Gather your evidence. Rally your support. When the time is right, play it again Sam. The third time is the charm.

Remote control.

On a 45-50 vote, the Senate blocked an effort to hold the Trump admin accountable for the mass imprisonment of people in El Salvador without trial.

Heard Trump traded Melanomia 4Jet…

Trump lifts sanctions on Syria after Syria’s new President pitches a Trump Tower in Damascus.

Spending the last few weeks in Mexico and viewing the United States from the outside, it’s very clear that the United States has fallen to a coup.

Aaaand there it is.

China made ZERO concessions and American consumers will still have to pay a 30% import tax, driving up prices. It’s just the latest proof that Trump is a TERRIBLE negotiator.

Bribery in plain sight.

First they arrested a judge. Now they’ve arrested the mayor of a major American city. This isn’t normal. This is an assault on democracy.

How about some basic rules? --All law enforcement officers should wear identification --No law enforcement officers should be allowed masks --All law enforcement officers should wear and use body cams ...oh and... --All law enforcement officers should understand, respect & follow the law

The USA has neither “rebellion” nor “invasion”. Without habeas corpus citizens and non-citizens can be arrested and detained for no reason. www.bbc.com/news/article...
