F#ck. “A provision ‘hidden’ in the sweeping budget bill that passed the U.S. House on Thursday seeks to limit the ability of courts—including SCOTUS—from enforcing their orders *** The provision ‘would make most existing injunctions…unenforceable,’” per the dean of UC Berkeley Law School. 5/22/25

It’s not normal for the President of the United States to make official announcements and proclamations on his social media platform.

from today's post, about Qatar conning Donny into accepting an essentially worthless vulgar flying bordello that nobody else wanted. please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/4mlAMKU (and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

Can someone tell Trump not to salute foreign generals?

well shit

30% is an enormously high tariff!

The president who’s taking bribes wants you to know that the people noticing his crime are the “crooked” ones

Trump reaches a “deal” to pause the tariffs he imposed on China. I guess all those manufacturing jobs aren’t coming here now, the tariffs won’t replace income taxes, and all the other amazing things they were supposed to do for us are over. So much for Liberation Day.

If there's a silver lining in all of Trump's picks, it's that he's maybe reminding people that expertise is good and it sucks when you give power to people without it.

“A new CBO analysis shows that several policies Republicans are considering for slashing Medicaid spending would lead to millions of people losing health insurance coverage.”

it really is astounding that a presidential administration crashed the growth trajectory of the wealthiest country on the planet in basically two months

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption. Breathtaking. Heartbreaking. We cannot let this stand.

I don’t feel like I’m challenging authority by resisting the Trump regime.

He’s weakening our country. He’s weakening our economy. He’s weakening our alliances. He’s weakening the free world. He’s weakening our influence around the world. And Putin keeps smiling every single day.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Fuck all you GOP traitorous cowards, with your lips stuck to his ass, supporting the destruction of the US, and lying to protect him Even tho you know what he's doing is wrong. Even when he is defeated, and he will be, we will never forget you and what you did.

And no one in America doubts why he's doing this.

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

An actual opposition party would be all over TV for the next 10 days reminding people of this tariff bullshit, letting people know that Congress has the power to end this, and getting to work on doing just that. Instead all that exists is the Democratic party so none of this will happen.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

I’m doing this.

The fact that the Department of Justice has not, and will never, launch an investigation into this massive national security breach tells you all you need to know about this lawless and profoundly corrupt Administration.
