To my Republican colleagues: are you ok with this? Our dedicated workforce has been harassed, maligned and decimated by Trump-Musk. You have been silent. When will just two of you have the courage to stand with us and support the law and the public servants who work for America?

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

The latest one line zinger from "ItsLuke" (TikTok): "Donald Trump...the human fucking skidmark!" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Can't wait to see how the Republicans attempt to spin this pile of garbage from Diaper Donnie. If Trump wants the respect of being called "President" Trump, he needs to earn it by actually acting, you know, PRESIDENTIAL.

History has consistently shown that autocratic leadership never ultimately prevails. Trump and his ilk should enjoy their brief moment in the sun, because it won't be long lasting. And it will be a glorious sight to behold, as karma is undefeated. Don't lose hope, friends. This, too, shall pass.

β€œWhen the president does it, that means it’s not illegal” β€” Richard Nixon, 1977 β€œHe who saves his country does not violate any law” β€” Donald Trump, 2025

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Out. Fucking. Rageous.

"coffee is only good when it is served in jim crow conditions"

Absolute fucking insanity tonight on Gaza. Our country is being run by a madman. Two weeks of complete chaos and lunacy.

To make Trump's Gaza proposal even worse...and to illustrate how truly ignorant and tone deaf he is...he makes this proposal public during a VERY delicate cease fire between Israel and Hamas and a large number of unreleased hostages still being held. Absolutely inexcusable.

Just when you think Trump cannot get any crazier...he today essentially declared war on the Palestinian people with his vision of the U.S, "taking over" the Gaza Strip. I am BEGGING any reasonable Republicans in Congress to STAND UP against this absurd proposal. This cannot come to fruition!

Is there ANYTHING the Orange Turd can do that anyone in the Republican Congress will ever stand up to as a patriot? This is the most spineless, ignorant, selfish group of legislators in American history.

Eggs are now the least of our worries...

Trump and his supporters...

Was hoping I wouldn’t have to dust off this gem again.

It's way past time time for the Little Hands Orange Turd to put on his Big Boy pants (over his diaper) and accept that the critical, discerning news media is a good thing for the country and, ultimately, for him, so long as what he tries to do is legal. And therein lies the rub.

Fucking exactly. It's been the bird flu all along. Give me a fucking break.

With Trump, he's always about the shell game and distraction. Always ask what his motivation is, despite what he says. For the proposed elimination of FEMA, it's NOT about saving money or forcing the States to take more responsibility.

Oh my stars...I first saw this dude on TikTok. Love his content: usually spot on, hilariously profane, always topical. Cannot recommend a follow to him enough. You'll learn a thing or two, get challenged, and laugh your a-- off the entire time! Definitely not a MAGA fan! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

This is a joke. But until (if?) the Republicans controlling the House and Senate grow a conscience and spine and actually provide this man with some reasonable guardrails to control his worst impulses, is it REALLY a joke?

From the AP: President Donald Trump on Wednesday demanded an apology from the Episcopal bishop of Washington after she made a direct appeal to him during a prayer service marking his inauguration to have mercy on the LGBTQ+ community and migrant workers who are in the United States illegally.

(Intentionally) lost amidst the shuffle of yesterday's Inauguration activities was this: Trump--again--removed the security detail for his former national security advisor, John Bolton. If the Iranians are finally successful in assassinating Bolton, that blood is fully on Trump's hands.

'Merica post January 20, 2025...

Before the election, I warned that Trump would pardon all of the Jan. 6 defendants and some of them would form the core of a new rightwing paramilitary organization loyal to Trump. At the time, people dismissed me as alarmist. I stand by that prediction.

Well that didn't last long! πŸ˜‚ Let's hope that the good folks of Ohio see through this abrasive nut job and soundly defeat his ambition to become the next elected governor of Ohio.

They win when you: - lose hope - give up - become cynical and withdraw - keep silent to stay off their radar Don't let them win.

Trump's "speech" prior to signing the flurry of executive orders on his first day is an incoherent, incompetent, rambling, every-other-word lying mess. I can't imagine anyone feeling comfortable with seeing THIS man as the leader of the free world. Well done, America. Well done. 🀬

The only positive that I can glean from tomorrow's Inauguration is that it's one less day that we will ever have to endure the chaos, ignorance, and hypocrisy that is Trump for the rest of our lives. Happy Inauguration Day!

Little Donny is concerned about the crowd size optics, that's all this is about. Don't believe for a second that he cares, in any way, for the health and safety of those attending the Inauguration. That and...he'd be uncomfortable.

#ProudBlue This is the mentality of the MAGA cult. Stupid, uneducated and unhealthy behavior. Following their role model Felon.

🚨🚨 Breaking: The French Human Rights League (LDH) is asking the public to join them in a mass exodus of #X, formerly Twitter, on January 20. 🧡 www.euronews.com/next/2025/01...

This is the last (relatively) peaceful weekend we will experience for the next four years. Get out and enjoy yourself! Life is good.

"Rather than exert so much energy trying to thrust Trump out of the presidency, liberals would be well served to spend their time thrusting the presidency upon Donald Trump. Instead of searching for illusory quick fixes...start demanding the Trump administration fix everything quickly." πŸ˜³β€ΌοΈ

Happy for the Plaintiffs here in that they can move on with their lives with a (presumably) acceptable settlement. BUT...the Court must hold Giuliani accountable if he suffers even one more bout of diarrhea of the mouth toward them with significant jail time!

Particularly amusing when you consider the President-elect is 78. πŸ˜‰
