Freedom of speech, to today's Republican Party, means they can throw you out of the country if you say something that hurts the president's feelings.

There's a word for people who dutifully repeat Nazi talking points. I think it's "Nazi."

Once again, he's grabbing his voters by the lapels and screaming "I THINK YOU'RE THE DUMBEST PEOPLE IN THE UNIVERSE" right in their faces.

Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it. If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why? Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

Whole lot of Trump supporters up around Lake Erie. Wonder how they feel about his pro-toxic algal blooms policies.

Another example of the regime telling MAGA that they think they're the most spectacularly brain-dead people in the universe. Makes you wonder if MAGA will ever get tired of their leaders calling them idiots.

Just another example of the new regime in Washington making life easier and more comfortable for child predators.

The obvious, blatant lies about Kilmar Abrego Garcia being a terrorist and gang member are of a piece with the obvious, blatant lies about the alleged president's physical condition. They serve as the most recent reminder that this regime thinks its supporters are the dumbest people in the universe.

The Washington Post may have been too scared to report on the protests this weekend, but at least they had the guts to report how the Musk administration is shutting down breakthrough cancer research so we can afford another huge tax cut for rich people.

Sure would be nice if the corporate media would give as much attention to Cory Booker's not-a-filibuster in defense of the rule of law as they gave to Ted Cruz's filibuster reading fucking Dr. Seuss.

The government’s statement is a flex, not a confession of error. The important elements of the flex are these: 1. We send enemies to brutal foreign labor camps. 2. We decide who enemies are. 3. We may decide you are an enemy based on a secret informant, or our view of your tattoos. /1

They're not saving you money, as their supporters like to claim. They're just wrecking things. And if some savings do result, you won't see a penny of them, unless you're already obscenely wealthy.

Trump has shown a clear pattern of freeing white criminals while imprisoning or deporting non-white people who have not been charged with crimes. We'd call this racist, but that would upset right-wing birthers who don't read our paper, so we'll call this "an unusual pattern."

The official position of the U.S. government is that there's no such thing as a Black war hero.

The Trump family is in talks to create a new cryptocurrency with a Chinese felon who was recently released from a halfway house. We would make this a front-page story with daily follow-ups, but none of the people involved are Democrats.

After years of alarm over unelected bureaucrats pulling the strings, what better example can you find than this moment the US government is in? DOGE is the thing it claims to fear the most. Elon Musk is the problem he purportedly wants to solve. Doge is the Deep State. @brbarrett.bsky.social:

I wonder how the people who voted for Trump because things are expensive are going to feel about him making clothing, produce, booze, paper, toys, technology, etc. much more expensive.

Imagine being so empty inside that you receive a warning telling you that your actions will result in hundreds of thousands of deaths across the globe and more deadly diseases making their way to the U.S., and you just ignore them and forge ahead, because those billionaires need their tax cuts.

Yes, the freedom-loving "small government" boosters in our Ohio legislature have once again decided that they need to undo what the voters decided, because the voters are too stupid to make their own decisions.

As they grow more and more AI dependent, these people reveal how little they read. See also Bill Ackman, who is constantly demanding “investigations” over stuff that would be solved by reading to the seventh graf. Arrogant, lazy, stupid.

I mean, I know my Congressman (Rep. Mike Carey) was too much of a cringing wussbucket to hold a town hall, or engage with his constituents in any meaningful way.

So the kids' home planet on "Skeleton Crew" is a place where your worth to society is 100% determined by your job and you spend every waking hour focused on being good at your future or current job and oh god I'm so depressed.

As though we needed more evidence that Ohio's corrupt, ultra-gerrymandered legislature cares not a whit about the voters, here they are undoing things that Ohioans voted for while claiming that they know better. I wonder if Ohioans are ever going to get tired of being lied to by their government.

Looks like violence against women is legal now in America, as long as you're a Republican. Add laws against domestic violence to the list of things that are too woke for this administration.

Right next to each other in my feed. In case you were wondering what the government is doing with all the money it claims to be saving by firing employees who actually help Americans.

A couple more things to add to the "too woke for our billionaire overlords" list: gainful employment for military families, timely rural mail service.
