Methinks Elon is one ketamine bender away from tweeting how Trump stole the 2024 election.

and I thought someone telling me that David Brooks called for a civic uprising would be the wildest thing I saw today

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

You are here.

I just ordered this book. Can't wait to read it.

Hooray for … {blinks} … {blinks two more times, harder} … Rand Paul?

ITS A TRAP! #cats #fluffycats

My dingus son plays with a ruler that might be older than me. #cats

You. Cannot. Take. A. Private. Company. Approach. To. The. Federal. Government. Dumb. Ass.

BULLSHIT

"We have a responsibility as a party to block absolutely everything when they are putting a match to the federal government." — @aoc.bsky.social on IG live just now

Bully: “Give me your lunch money.” Victim: “No!” Bully: “Then I will delay demands for your lunch money for one month.”

really weird how everything Kamala warned us would happen is happening

I think it was the inevitable outcome of millions of people not understanding and not caring how their own government works

This is it. This is the one. I think this is my most important report on Elon Musk as a Musk biographer. Read this and you will understand the man. Warning: dark stuff inside.

Ope.

I'm so tired. I don't want to have to worry every single day about what new fuckery is going down as our government is dismantled & sold for parts. It feels like I'm trapped watching a train crash in slow motion. Exhausted.

Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

What we are witnessing is not an incoming administration reshaping the executive branch to enact its policy agenda. We are witnessing the rapid and systematic installment of an oligarchy.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Ms Crockett once again NAILS IT

people being like "this was their plan all along" forget that while this administration is fucking evil it's also staffed by fucking idiots

I’ve come up with a secret phrase we can say when we really mean fuck Donald Trump. 👇 Fuck Donald Trump.

I am extremely proud of Phyllis Fong, illegally fired by Donald Trump from her job as Department of Agriculture Inspector General, for MAKING THEM walk her out of the office. This is courage, and fuck you to every MAGA cheering this on.

Having to be a functional adult while everything around me is falls to shit is definitely not what I thought my 40s would be like.

Democrats should not vote on a single Trump cabinet nominee until this federal assistance freeze is rescinded. Do not let up.

Another free and slightly helpful checklist

all you people who told us to calm down can go fuck yourselves

We informed everyone months ago that if Trump was elected, these very events would occur. Do you believe us now?

Name one thing Trump has done since elected that Vladmir Putin wouldn't approve of. Get it, now?

Methinks Rich Lowry’s logic circuits have malfunctioned

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

BREAKING: TikTok officially shuts down in the US.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House. Ronald Reagan had them removed. We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

Still guilty.

Just think if Bezos did something to help others MacKenzie Scott gives rare third gift to medical debt relief group abcnews.go.com/Health/wireS...

This speaks to my soul.

Well, this is thoroughly infuriating! A small music venue near me, owned by a friend, was hut HARD during the pandemic and got denied any sort of COVID relief. I have no idea if they applied to this fund or not but I forwarded this article to the owner.
