If it was a “personal” and not a “presidential” meeting, why the presidential seal?

The current resident of the WH is clearly suffering from dementia and @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social wants to beat up Pres. Biden! Disgusting!!

The ignorant, fragile man-child who couldn't admit he lost an election also can't admit he doesn't know how tariffs work. This is why we're screwed.

The hit piece on Pres Biden this morning on @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social was disgraceful. All of you should be ashamed!

Dear Immigration Jusges: STOP HOLDING IN PERSON HEARINGS!! ICE is ambushing people at your courthouses, who are trying to play by the rules. REMOTE hearings only!!!

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.

Jeffries: We will stand up today, stand up tomorrow, stand up this week, stand up next week, stand up this month, stand up next month, stand up this year, stand up next year, stand up at all times until we end this national nightmare and restore the American dream for every single person

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

trump 2.0 has: - measles running rampant - planes falling out of the sky - FEMA not responding to disasters - citizens being snatched off the streets - Americans paying more because of tariffs. But hey, at least you got to make trans people uncomfortable. Fucking jackasses.

“You’ve talked about $4 billion a day being saved,” Husain said. “And I think everyone can agree that combating waste and inefficiency in government is a very good thing, but if you add that up, it’s not gonna get to $2 trillion over the lifetime of DOGE.” www.thedailybeast.com/musk-insults...

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

You know you’re winning when you post “We are NOT the Gestapo!”

It’s still hard for me to believe that after so many years of deranged posts like this, we’ve still never had a serious national conversation about this man’s mental health.

the 'Joe Biden is old' crowd needs to shut the fuck up right now

Is Trump now threatening to prosecute Beyoncé?

I'm a white person who doesn't want to live in a nation made up of nothing but white people. I have no interest in MAGA's dream of seeing us become a gated community of inbred supremacy that cuts itself off from a world it believes itself superior to. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/im-a-white...

Since we’re in a relatively safe space…this post is terrible messaging and I am baffled that it gets likes. Its root message is “who cares about the truth, just do the stuff /I/ think is right!!”

And I thought Comey was getting the shaft here….

Fox News's lead 9am story is Comey Shell-gate, which I think is right up there in terms of the dumbest and most braindead fabrication of the Trump era

🚨 WALMART RAISING PRICES DUE TO TARIFFS “We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible but given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO says.

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?
