It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

A pregnant woman lost her baby after ICE refused to give her prenatal care. She begged for help and was denied. She was fed food full of cockroaches. She was forced to sleep on the floor. This is absolutely disgusting and we should all be outraged. nashvillebanner.com/2025/05/27/i...

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Blocking JD Vance is the only right move to his attempt to troll Bluesky. Don't give him any attention, just block and move on. It's sad that with everything going on in the world, our Vice President has stooped so low as to become an everyday forum troll, but that's where we are now.

I assure you, none of them are mine.

CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.

Three dozen horses, 28 Abrams tanks, 6,700 soldiers, and millions of taxpayer dollars later, and Donald Trump’s military birthday parade was still a flop at best. https://trib.al/KCC1rFu

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade. #SAD 🤣

The photos coming from Trump’s birthday parade are just incredible. No one showed up.

Tell me some more about how the left hates America. #NoKings

We’re at war with Iran, Trump’s gone into hiding, nobody will tell us our objectives, plan or end game, our Sec of Defense is a useless dipshit, our Sec of State lied about it, our DNI loves the leader of Iran’s greatest ally, & tomorrow we’re having a parade for Trump’s bday.

President Trump says he asked Elon Musk to leave the White House and that Musk has gone crazy. In a second Truth Social post, he suggests that he’s also going to cut Musk’s government contracts, presumably referring to SpaceX.

It's like a death cult

“.. these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

E. coli outbreak sickened more than 80 people, but details didn’t surface wapo.st/4kcl8Qo

“yea honestly transit is gonna keep being fucked up” is just what you want to hear from the guy in charge of fixing it

It really is this simple. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
