I don't know if this is actually true personally, but hey, if they can believe that Trump has a 99% approval rating, and they're all going to be rich soon because of him, and that the 'other country' pays tariffs, I can believe this is true with a significantly higher chance of being correct.

100% certain that the average Apple product consumer will be okay with a 25% price hike on things unless Apple brings back factory manufacturing to the USA (which will raise the cost of Apple products by around 35-40%) because FREEDOM! ...and tax cuts for the wealthiest 5%.

MUST WATCH! The numbers don't lie, this bill doesn't just cut Medicaid, it adds $20 trillion in new debt. #HealthCareCutsKill

@sandieglo.bsky.social thank you for sharing this

Maybe it's called a corpse flower because that's a dead ballerina stuffed in a bucket.

I'm a lunatic leftist fringe AND a Trekky (yes, believe it or not, you can be both,) and if you're still on Instagram and NOT following Jeri Ryan for her "stories", you should be... www.instagram.com/jerilryan/

Thanks to the literally hundreds of people who foolishly clicked "Follow" on my profile over the last 24 hours... I wonder what's brought you all here? {{Looks through personal skeet history...}} Ah yes! Cute animals! Of course!

I wanna wait about six months when the US budget really kicks in and the world's reaction to "diplomatic" things insinuated are better known, and (long shot) some of the lies and BS come home to roost, then ask a LOT of that 33% of America who are proudly MAGA... Was it worth it to "own the libs"?

Who has two thumbs and after two years has 1,000 followers today? {{counts thumbs...}} Yeah, yeah... it's me! Thanks all! I will continue an attempt to amuse while screeching at injustices and stuff!

This is EXCELLENT news. So here for Canada becoming a place where science and innovation is not only welcome but encouraged AND given great opportunities for funding. #Canada #CanadaStrong #Elbowsup #Europe

The GOP Tax Scheme represents the largest wealth transfer from the poor to the rich in American history.

Bit late for the afternoon for me here, but indeed... a genuine cleanse o' the timeline...

There go my weekend plans.

Pretty sure it died of embarassment.

Just four more "Meh, sure... I guess I'll follow this account maybe..." people and I've hit 1000! Gosh! It's only take two years of dishing out my political screeds and craptacular humour to get here, but it's been worth it... kinda sorta maybe.

...but I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you continue to put your bag on the empty seat beside you on this busy subway car...

Pass the word, donate, volunteer, ANYTHING, show hand job lackey. @RepBoebert the door!

Not sure what we'll do, really but it's a start... and I'm glad Canada is a part of it.

KARL: Is a trade deficit subsidizing Canada? RAND PAUL: No. They're really not related at all. What happens if we trade with another country because they have less expensive goods is we become richer. You also have more money you can spend.
