I cant decide what’s a worse look here: the elected leader of an EU member state & ICC signatory hosting an indicted ICC war criminal, OR the elected leader of the self-proclaimed Jewish state excusing his counterpart’s history of antisemitism & whitewashing Hungary’s role in the Holocaust?

Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) just introduced a bill to reassert Congress’s power over tariffs. —President must notify Congress on new tariffs within 48 hours of imposition. —Congress must approve them within 60 days or they expire. www.cantwell.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

On the story itself, the #BrokenTimes says it was extremist nutjob Laura Loomer who caused the firings, but on its home page, where headlines matter, it shrugs and said no reason is given: a sin of journalistic omission.

Where are the Russian tariffs?

Show some gratitude to the financial geniuses in the White House, America!

We wanted to let everyone know that all of our resistance members are safe—thanks again for your help the other day. There was a situation involving Musk staffers, but it’s been handled.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

liberals have absolutely nothing for this moment. they’re flailing and they think we can’t tell

If RFK Jr. wants public health agencies to be transparent, why would he gut the teams at the CDC and FDA that handle FOIA requests — a key way the public gains access to government information?

OBAMA: “Imagine if I had done any of this.” Exactly.

I love this

The representative from McDonald Island has tried to filibuster our renaming of the island but did not have the same stamina as @booker.senate.gov and stood for only 24 minutes.

The GOP COVID Committee report is wild. The virus is a Chinese bioweapon designed by Fauci ... and it was so mild that the US should have taken zero precautions ... and Democratic governors didn't take enough precautions ... and we should have let everyone get it. oversight.house.gov/release/fina...

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

A more innocent time, before the threat of penguins forced his hand

Remember all the politicians, pundits, anchors, law firms, billionaires, and corporations that voluntarily bent the knee to Trump and threw America under the bus. They made a selfish choice, thinking Trump and MAGA would be in power for years. Well, the regime is cracking and people are waking up.

He hates the military. We are just props.

No tariffs on Russia. Huh?

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.

This guy has collapsed the economy twice.

Imagine you’re Timothy Haugh, a decorated general, confirmed unanimously by the Senate to head the NSA. And while you’re traveling abroad, you find out the President just fired you on the advice of a 9/11 truther whose bigotry once got her banned by Uber.

Bill Burr is a national treasure 🎯! "You journalists need to get your balls back"

“So unbelievably stupid, incompetent and insane.”

The tariffs are catastrophic. But so too are the abuses of power, so is the corruption, so are the police state tactics, so is the destruction of our health care infrastructure, so are the ways our national security is being endangered, so are the attacks on our core freedoms.

what if it just took one though

There’s so much GOP cope happening today. “At least Wisconsin approved voter ID so libs can’t cheat” Wisconsin has required voter ID since 2015. You spent millions of dollars and got your ass kicked for a rule that already existed and that fundamentally changes nothing.

How it started. How it’s going

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Remember: every single Senate Democrat voted for Marco Rubio, the man responsible for deporting students. Every single one. Including the asshats who put that n a nice show for you this week. If you want change, look elsewhere. Democrats are complicit.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

"We’re respected as a country again" no you're not - the exact opposite in fact. I pity the sane ones in the US right now.

Pushback works, part gazillion: "Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices." popular.info/p/how-the-so...
