Hmmm… 📌Republicans in Nov-Dec 2024: Biden's economy is only doing great because Trump is about to be president. 🤔Republicans in March 2025: Trump's economy is not doing great because we are still in Biden's economy.

Sounds like a plan

🚨 Trump and Musk want to fire federal workers, gut public services, and hand our government to billionaires. We’re not letting that happen. 📢 Join us this Thursday at 8PM ET for a mass call to hear how we fight back—together.

Trump and Vance yell and trash talk Zelensky while sucking Putin’s dick. That’s where we are at. A century of global leadership vaporized in a month.

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

whether or not you’re a fan of zelensky, the usa trying to force an election in a foreign democracy during wartime–when it can’t be held safely and securely–against most ukrainians’ wishes (including much of zelensky’s opposition) and in violation of the ukrainian constitution is unacceptable.

Really don’t think we can understate how much troll culture is now political culture

US Senator Roger Wicker, head of the US Senate Committee on Armed Services, commented on the talks with Putin: "No, Putin cannot be trusted. Putin is a war criminal and should be in jail for the rest of his life, if not executed."

Yes, the employee at McDonald’s should be able to afford rent, groceries, bills, health care and retirement plans with their paycheck alone. That’s what jobs are for.

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey has called on Keir Starmer to recall Parliament to discuss plans to support Ukraine

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

I absolutely agree 💯💯 🎯

Word of the Day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet individual whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich. How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?

“Elon Musk said the British Gov’t, elected by the British people just a few months ago, should be overthrown..Elon Musk has to be held to account” Sir Ed Davey 👏

The climate crisis is here. So how can the Chancellor maintain that we can’t afford to uncancel the northern legs of HS2, which would supercharge low-carbon transport capacity around the UK, but claim that we can’t afford *not to* expand Heathrow? https://buff.ly/40xkhkV

Thoughts and prayers are back on the menu.

Sounds like a plan
