Finally. Say it out loud, General.

I wonder if the maga media is going to bother with this before their own cats die?

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Just think of the millions of dollars that will be lost to the trade balance with China because of this. Beyond how insanely stupid this idea is, the current administration is clearly shooting itself economically. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/w...

A Friendly Reminder.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

"In a culture that respects shame, they should be ashamed." A quote from a Rump appointed leader. Let's ask him if supporting a felon/sexual predator/domestic terrorist supporter/lying thief and bully indicates respect for shame. www.aol.com/doj-weaponiz...

Hear directly from some of the reporters and editors of our Pulitzer-winning “Life of the Mother” series — which exposes the fatal consequences of abortion bans — as they reflect on their stories, their process and the lessons they’ve learned. Read more: propub.li/3F1plXT

At a Hands Off rally on Capitol Hill, former Social Security Commissioner Martin O'Malley slams the Trump regime for their gargantuan lies about Social Security: "We have to put the brakes on Elon Musk and Donald Trump trying to wreck its reputation and wreck its customer service so they can…

Thank you Greyhound!

Republicans will be complicit in the destruction of America.

Never give in to the lies. Never agree with the lies.

So forcing tariffs onto the cost of items is "beautiful " but explaining the added cost is "hostile"? Bezos, we tried to warn you not to support this administration. www.aol.com/amazon-listi...

Illinois’ Democratic governor JB Pritzker possesses the kind of fighting spirit we need take on and topple a tyrant like Trump. Pritzker is teeming with fierce opposition to the madness of MAGA — precisely what Americans need at this dangerous point in our nation’s history. In a fiery…

A new tribute to Neil Young, a benefit for The Bridge School features new covers of Neil songs by XPN faves Kathleen Edwards, Courtney Barnett, Fiona Apple, Brandi Carlile and more.

Seems like the below author learned how to tell a story by reading about the emperor's new clothes. Spin the bad as oh so good.

No. Absolutely not‼️ This is exactly what shouldn’t happen. Farmers don’t get a bailout this time. Especially if they helped put Trump in office — they can suffer right along with the rest of us losing our businesses and livelihoods. Trump needs to stop this tariff madness—instead of bailouts.

The world is on Zelensky’s side. Zelensky applauded by world leaders upon entering church.

Impossible for an adult woman with even an average IQ to set her expensive bag containing $3k, passport and work ID on the floor in a restaurant. Especially for someone who is responsible for security in public areas (like borders). And no one in her job would carry $3k. Unless it was bait.

Perfect Saturday morning inspiration! And thanks for the reminder to visit an independent bookstore today, the official independent bookstore day.
