How did we go from Buttigieg to this clown?! Let's, for arguments sake, say he wasn't grossly exaggerating; funding it is exactly how this problem would be fixed! Other countries with questionable governments somehow have good public transit, but we get a shitty government AND shitty transit.

Trump Republicanism in action. What could possibly go wrong? www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

Hold your Fox News loving relative tonight, this is going to be hard on them.

What makes this chart so terrible is that it assumes the LEFT and RIGHT columns to be one-to-one comparisons, when the people on the RIGHT column are much further right then the people on the LEFT column. It also pushes the CENTER to the right instead of being a true, reasonable political middle.

You know things are dire when the best case scenario of our collapsing economy is that it's just short term market manipulation so rich people can get richer.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I would say unbelievable, but it’s completely believable. According to Trump, January 2024--when Biden was in office—was Trump’s market. Meanwhile, April 2025—while Trump is in office—that’s Biden’s stock market. Some idiot is going to say this makes sense, too.

Just in the bridge of the Enterprise-D because we can all use a little escapism! 🖖🏻

Right now, we know we CAN get accurate information if we know where to look. Big media is going down fast, wait until they find the small media or platforms who can't afford to fight lawsuits. Or, worst case scenario, the ISPs and cell phone carriers! Scary, scary stuff.

BREAKING: In the most predictable of predictable news, trump has just ordered a 90-day pause on some tariffs. HE CAVED AGAIN. What a fucking clown.

So I understand the Trump is a narcissistic sociopath who is losing his mind & drunk on power, but what is the end game for congressional Republicans? Why aren't they growing a pair & stopping the madness. Just stop the chaos, have Trump play golf for 4 years, and do normal shitty republican things.

Imported cars getting 25% more expensive also means that domestic cars are about to get 24.9% more expensive. Do you really think that Ford/GM/etc. are going to just let their cars be 25% cheaper instead of profiting big time?

🔥 “Without a level playing field — without Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion — Meritocracy fails spectacularly… it’s ok to at any point stop and admit you didn’t think this all the way through.” cc: Rep. Aron Maberry (who is carrying yet another an anti-DEI bill)

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Yes, America You voted for this

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Hot take: stop vandalizing and burning Telsas. It's what they want, it feeds their narrative. They want a repeat of the chaos of the summer of 2020; whether you feel it is justified or not is irrelevant, it was ugly and made leftists and progressives look bad. Be disruptive, not destructive!

Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity. He thinks climate change isn't real, so he thinks these groups have committed fraud. Which of course is fucking crazy.

Happy International Women's Day to my amazing wife 💕. She is the greatest! #internationalwomensday

Terrifyingly true 😕

The only state of the union I'm interested in tonight is the state of my mouth to the union of this beer by the fire 🍺🔥

Hillary Clinton told you the truth about Trump and Putin. You didn't vote for her and she was right about everything. Kamala Harris told you the truth about Trump and Putin. You didn't vote for her and she was right about everything. I hope your misogyny was worth losing your democracy. Dummies.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Donald Trump has betrayed America. If you couldn’t see it before, you just saw it today.

What just happened at the White House with Zelensky was disgraceful, to put it nicely. Ignoring the MAGA cult (they are a lost cause), I want ever other "Biden didn't help me much so I guess I'll vote Trump" person to admit that they f-ed up, no more excuses. We are a worldwide embarrassment!

There are more cases of measles than there are trans athletes in America. Guess which one Republicans in charge are focusing on?

The whole "there are extremes on both sides" literally exists just on the internet. Left-wing anarchists are not running as Dems, but oppressive fascists are running as Republicans. Stop saying that Dems need to move to the right to win, that would not be "meeting in the middle."

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker. Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

Trump's latest threats against "fake books and stories" is terrifying. With a compromised FCC, how much longer will we be able to exchange information on the internet. Eliminating "content moderation" is a trojan horse for content control, and platforms like Bluesky are too small to put up a fight.

Crockett: Mr. President, guess what? Russia invaded Ukraine. Can we at least agree on that one? Facts matter. Is there anybody in here that has enough courage to say Russia invaded Ukraine? …. Crockett: This is the problem

1. It’s Trump’s not Trumps’. 2. U.S. Attorneys are not the president’s lawyers. They are the government’s lawyers and therefore in the U.S. the people’s lawyers. 3. Ed Martin is fully on board with transforming a government of, by, and for the people into a government of, by, and for Donald Trump.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

I repeat…

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen
