Apparently some people are upset that this is who they’re casting as an elf princess. Explain why this is a problem to me like I’m 5 years old.

It makes me feel sick knowing so many Americans believe him

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

basically did a whole photoshoot of swans the other week on the Isle of Dogs because the light was so good and honestly I have no regrets, perfect use for like a fifth of my camera roll

Number 1 most evil thing in America...Faux media broadcasting. It's like having our very own Hanoi Hannah spewing propaganda at Americans every hour of every day. #TakeFoxOffTheAir #FoxLies #LockUpMurdoch

Trump loves it when the media does his bidding. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

This right here......

She’s the first woman and first Black person to hold the job, so obviously, Trump says she has to go. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Disturbing thought: How long (assuming they aren’t already) before rapists just start putting on masks, grabbing random women off the street & throwing them into a van? Apparently they just have to claim to be ICE and no one will bat an eye.

The President said of the U.S. economy: "We are a department store, and we set the price. I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, what I consider to be a fair price, and they can pay it, or they don't have to pay it." And then... I lost it.

Big thank you to Ali @velshi.com for giving me a healthy chunk of air time to explain the Econ 101 of bilateral trade deficits. It matters because this is the intellectual foundation for the President's trade war.

Saying the quiet part out loud

This is how insane this country is!!⬇️ ⬇️

Trump's Transportation Secretary blames Elon Musk and DOGE for cuts after multiple fatal aircraft crashes

I needed to hear this. Maybe you do too. “Fear has a way of being contagious… courage is also contagious.” — Kamala Harris Man, I miss her.

On a related note, around 7 million Medicare enrollees are under 65 because they have ALS, ESRF or have been on SSI disability for at least 2 years. I’m guessing they’re gonna start accusing those folks of fraud soon as well.

I definitely had to see this. Brightened up my morning. 😀

Happy Liberation Day to those who celebrate.

The Trumpcession is coming. Very soon.

The moment when @corybooker.com displaced segregationist Strom Thurmond for the longest marathon in Senate history. 24 hours, 33 minutes and counting

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Oklahomans who voted for this, including parents of the children on the program, it really is time to start rethinking your allegiances.

GOP Rep. Don Bacon: "We were the leader of the free world, but it appears to many leaders and people all over, to include Republicans in Nebraska, that this administration is walking away from that legacy."

What a front cover...

More of this please.

Senators are asking the DC Office of Disciplinary Counsel to look into the torrent of abnormal and rule-shattering statements Jan. 6 organizer Ed Martin has issued since Trump gave the conservative activist his first-ever prosecutorial job: DC US Attorney. www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

No more watching The Flintstones on U.S. military bases. Can’t allow anyone to have a gay old time.

BREAKING: Job losses spiked a whopping 245% in February. This is higher than any month since July 2020 (the middle of pandemic) and the highest in any February since the Great Recession of 2009.
