I'm embarrassed to be an American right now. I hate knowing that the rest of the world thinks Americans are pieces of shit. I do not stand with this administration. These horrific, nazi ghouls do not represent me or what I think America should be. I stand with Zelensky and the people of Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Lindsey Graham immediately following up an Oval Office meeting at which Trump and Vance disgraced themselves and the United States with a call for Zelenskyy to leave Ukraine's presidency only makes me feel more strongly that this whole event today was pre-planned and in service of Kremlin interests.

Wouldn't it just be a damn shame if EVERYONE emailed their five accomplishments, or 5 thoughts, or insults for Elon, to OPM as they requested of federal employees, thereby crashing the site? Sounds like good trouble to me. PASS IT ON.

“If DOGE is a federal agency, it can’t shield its records from the public. If it’s not an agency, then DOGE’s tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend.” www.propublica.org/article/doge...

It's the Gulf of Mexico, and it will always be the Gulf of Mexico, no matter how many deluded fucks try to rename it, and I truly hope all other news organizations stand in solidarity with Associated Press against the insane bullshit.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good. Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

the most perverse thing about social media is it makes me feel that if I don't comment on something terrible (ie. the fires in LA), it'll make people think I don't care about or that I even endorse it. Not everyone needs to hear my stupid thoughts on terrible things.

Yep. The LA fires have made it abundantly clear the response will always be: 1) Blame environmentalists 2) Try to buy their way out of it. Tbh Australia has now had a 20 years of so of bushfires being blamed on Green groups.

The selfless acts we're seeing as we fight the fires in Los Angeles are extraordinary — Good Samaritans jumping to aid neighbors. Humanitarians like Chef Jose Andres providing meals to responders. Bipartisan support from leaders across the country. California thanks you for your generosity.
