Thinking about the tut-tutting Democratic politicians who spent their two years in power warning that Supreme Court expansion was too radical an idea to even think about taking seriously. You absolute fucking rubes. You gigantic, credulous losers. I hope you are ashamed of yourselves today.

PSA: The Burger King at the Connie Chung Service Area in New Jersey is OUT OF HAMBURGERS. It is not clear how they ran out of their signature sandwich, nor when they will be able to restock. They are still offering fries, onion rings, and chicken sandwiches.

Respectfully, if you're a white person with a lot of privileges I think posting publicly that you are scared to attend a rally is some real bullshit. It has to be said.

Up is down. The ghost of George Orwell is undoubtedly demanding royalties from the afterlife. "After the state forced a Long Island school district to abandon its 'Chief' mascot, federal education officials said the policy discriminated against Native Americans." www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/n...

Just did a bunch of news searches for every Cabinet-level member of the administration and almost all of them have a page full of stories highlighting their recent blunders. Cruelty too, but so many of them are clearly just so bad at their actual jobs.
