EVERYONE ELSE TAKING SHOWERS, NOT ME GETTING SMELLIER

They’ll believe any number they get fed.

Massachusetts decided to tax the rich, and collected $2.6 billion over the last 10 months. That’s $2.6 billion more to spend on transportation and education.

3 Dems have died in 2025 alone—with 7 of the last 8 over 70 y/o and battling significant health concerns. Democrats in Congress need to decide whether they're mentally—and physically—up to the task of thwarting the GOP's efforts to decimate America’s institutions. Or make way for those who are.

And if you think it's bad now, the Billionaire Bailout Bill that passed the House this morning will be the biggest transfer of wealth in history if enacted.

What’s important is that government is getting out of business’ way and just letting the free market work again

George Floyd's murder by a Minneapolis police officer shocked the national conscience. But what looked like historic momentum for racial justice has collapsed — eclipsed by a reactionary movement backed by the full force of the U.S. government.

I was a college student who took econ classes and believed in market-based solutions and means-tested programs, and 20 years later, the GOP has convinced me that we need confiscatory income and wealth taxation

I’m horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers at an event in DC last night. The fact that the gunman said he did it to “free Palestine” makes me nauseous. Murdering people for their nationality is never acceptable and this violence hurts Jews, Israelis, *and* Palestinians.

i think he is genuinely representative of the faction of the online left which has been DMming me death threats over the past 72h

I think if you're writing an obituary for Elon Musk's political career you should probably mention that he's still a federal employee, that his loyal right-hand man is still running his operation, and that people closely associated with him are employed in key positions all through the government

“The ironic part is that we were worried for our daughter’s safety in Israel,” Mr. Milgrim added. “But she was murdered three days before going.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/w...

Passage of Trump’s cruel multi-trillion tax and spending bill depended on intrasession Democratic deaths.

This gets the story wrong on a fundamental level because it assumes DOGE was about what Musk claimed. DOGE was about stealing data, getting Musk contracts, shutting down investigations and regulations of Musk’s companies, and terrorizing federal workers. On that front, it succeeded.

No weed and no porn, just crazy racists with guns and traffic

The murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum in D.C. tonight is horrifying. This is what happens when antisemitic propaganda is permitted to go unaccountable. We cannot condone hateful rhetoric against the Jewish community. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u...

So efficiency.

Hey, if the media is interested in a cover-up of a senile president who's not really in control of his White House, there's one going on right now?

If it was 1933 anntelnaes.substack.com/p/if-it-was-...

If DOGE were a private company it would be facing multiple class action lawsuits for FRAUD and false advertising. Almost everything they’ve stated has been full of lies — one giant SCAM.

This is so long overdue I’m actually boiling with rage. Do you know how many hours of phone calls supporting friends I’ve (we’ve all) had to have to mitigate the psychological and physical harm of this cruel medical policy?

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

The richest and most powerful country in the history of the world - once renowned for our soft power, now reduced to shaking down our ostensible allies

It’s pretty remarkable just how thoroughly Target got its shit wrecked for the anti-DEI stuff www.cnbc.com/2025/05/21/t...

Why are news sites taking this story at face value? His $290m investment in the last election has yielded massive ROI. Do billionaires typically find a profitable angle and then just willingly give it up? He also has a long history of saying he'll do one thing and then doing another.

starting to think we need a modern temperance movement to crack down on digital forms of gambling (crypto, sports betting etc)

We’re about to learn whether a bunch of people who’ve turned Biden bashing into their personal income stream have a shred of decency and humanity.

If you’re spending one fucking second wringing your hands about Joe Biden’s age while a new set of arsonists are burning the entire nation down, please go touch all the grass

There is a special place in hell for people who work for a presidential administration who decide to air out dirty laundry for a tell-all book, but who won't stand behind it and put their names on the record. Disgusting.

What world do these guys live in

I swear the mainstream press is just a pack of golden retrievers eager to chase any ball rolled for them, and that's how they themselves get rolled and roll the public in turn.

I was angry with Jake Tapper for cashing in on a former President while the current one sells off our country for parts, but now I’m pissed… We can’t get out of our own way.

Buddy, trust me, there is no fucking way to miss this even if I wanted to

like this would be party-collapsing if Democrats were in power it's just fucking maddening Republicans get to be unconscionable monsters and it's just baked in

Good one, @atrupar.com!

😳

He also halted arms shipments to Ukraine without telling anyone, until congressional Republicans found out about it and got it reversed. P.S. - Biden is old.

This is bullshit. When the issue now is whether Trump‘s authoritarianism will prevail, looking back at the Biden mess is a distraction that helps the forces of autocracy.

And the corporate media wonders why people are leaving them in droves.

Of course the greatest US president of the 20th century served this country from a wheelchair, so using mobility as an indicator of intellectual ability is both stupid and insulting, as is making a clickbait story out of something that didn't happen but someone said someone was thinking about.

It’s like Trump used the dinner fork instead of the salad fork.

lmfao I just realized the actual file for the US-UK trade deal has "FINAL rev v2" at the end of the name like it's a high school group project written the night before it was due

Pritzker would’ve pulled up with a Glock

That there were people cheering on the DOGE cuts because they thought the government would send them a $500 check from all the money saved firing scientists and park rangers is quite sad to me.

I hope when the victims of Trump’s unlawful human trafficking seek damages in the future, people don’t forget the family of Ashli Babbitt got 30 million dollars.

My new one @theatlantic.com: When judges act as partisan hacks, it is important to condemn their conduct. But just as important is lauding the Republican judges who stand up against election subversion, including the Trump-appointed federal judge Myers www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
