Sadly yes

This is a pretty dumb war

There we go. Support this man.

They don’t care. They don’t care that the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring an innocent man home to his family. They don’t care. They think it’s funny.

A reminder that Donold feeds off of fear. He wants everyone to be afraid at all times. He wants you to stop discussing Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He wants you to stop discussing SignalGate. So he sows fear and panic.

THIS. 🙌

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

Exactly. Trump and Miller want to make El Salvador their Generalgouvernement, and Bukele is stepping up to be their Hans Frank.

Imho, I’m really not sure if Roberts or any of the rest really care what rational people think.

He said today "HOMEGROWNS ARE NEXT"

Israel's military is expanding buffer zones inside the Gaza Strip and taking over more areas of the territory, shrinking land Palestinians can access by more than half.

NEW from me: Amid increasing reports that U.S. citizens have been caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration dragnet, a dozen members of Congress have written to the government with pointed questions. None has received a reply. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

The most revolting Oval Office presser since Feb. 28 (the Zelensky one). Even just hitting a few of the lowlights of this will leave you sickened and dismayed. BUT it's also clarifying. Anyone who has been talking about "the road to authoritarianism" can stop that now. The road is behind us.

. Trump wants 60 Minutes canceled for exposing truths meanwhile, he’s out here lying like it’s cardio. Suing CBS won’t undo your bromance with Putin or erase your role in this global mess. Ukraine bleeds, and all he cares about is his ego. Pathetic. .

Just getting to this @nytimes.com article about what a jawdropping bullshit factory, failure and fraud DOGE is. Musk is an historic disgrace, and what they've done is an incredible national scandal. Gift link. READ IT. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/u...

They love to bring up this small study when larger and more thorough studies have shown the difference being about 1800 words more and only during child rearing age range.

Crosswalks across Silicon Valley were hacked this weekend. Pressing the button now triggers a message impersonating Elon Musk—mocking him in the process. Videos have been circulating online all weekend. 😂

Not when your strategy depends foremost on ignoring facts and changing course only when those facts punch you in the face for your ignorance, dipshit.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

Will just leave this clip here of Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings talking about what’s wrong with America from a 1991 interview and it’s still all very true today

Coolest Subaru I have ever seen

This is insanity

Tech execs declaring all-out war on creators who don’t want their life’s work pillaged for profit

Club Champion?

Oh. Donald Trump is exempting smartphones from tariffs now? Guess Apple CEO Tim Cook personally donating $1 million to Trump's inaugural committee paid off. Exemptions also include semiconductors, solar cells, and memory cards. Solar cells? Elon Musk is getting his money's worth for Tesla too.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.
