SEN. PADILLA: “Saying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”

youtube.com/shorts/EKfxb... I’m just as disgusted by this as any American. The video of this incident made my blood run cold.

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

Because free speech.

Jake Tapper's book is nothing more than the corporate media trying to shift the blame for 2024 off themselves. Unsure how people can't see this.

🔴Why Keir Starmer Is Wrong About Immigration In an interview with Byline TV, migration researcher and campaigner @zoejardiniere.bsky.social dispels misconceptions about immigration, and its political currency at the ballot box www.bylinesupplement.com/p/why-keir-s...

AOC, talking Medicaid cuts — after Rep. Weber chides her for addressing the camera: “.. There are 13.7 million Americans on the other side of that screen. .. They deserve. To see. What is happening. Here.” @aoc.bsky.social

Endless references in media coverage today to the rapid increases in net migration in recent years and often too little explanation as to why: (i) keeping UK HE/social care afloat and (ii) an attempt to deal with post Covid labour shortages/supply chain inflation.

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

Genuinely the stupidest motherfucker in the history of stupid motherfuckers. Aside from the question of how these could be administered and what counts as "produced elsewhere," the inevitable retaliatory tariffs would absolutely kill foreign box office for US studios. www.cnn.com/2025/05/04/m...

The fuck? This is untenable. Dude is a walking security threat.

RFK Jr. says he'll find out the cause of autism. I wanna know the cause of RFK Jr.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Staple this to RFK Jr’s forehead.

This makes my blood run cold. Shame on anyone who supports Trump and his fascist regime. Indonesian student detained by Ice after US secretly revokes his visa.

What The Actual F#%k!!!! Reporter: "Should the Defense Secretary.." MTG: What country are you from? Reporter: From the UK MTG: “OK, we don't give a crap about your opinion and your reporting. Why don't you go back to your country?” What an absolute disgrace!!

A really crappy night. Hardly slept. Needed some good news and relief from the doomscrolling. This is lovely. ☺️ Blind date: ‘Did we kiss? After the night we had, it would’ve been rude not to’

In a world of Matts, be a Derek.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
