🔥 wow, someone's gonna need a drink tonight. It's always 5pm somewhere, Pete

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

🤣🤣🤣 Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss. No Kings Day 🤣🤣🤣

Good water level music in a video game should make you feel as if you have returned to the womb.

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

These are the people that make America great 🇲🇽🇺🇸

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Yeah it's really something to see a U.S. senator being hit with the same impossible compliance demands that the cops scream at people before shooting them during a stop

For those who are wondering when the line is going to be crossed, look behind you.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

"Digging into questions like “can Trump federalize the California National Guard because heavily-armed Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers picked a fight with a few hundred random Californians outside of Home Depot and lost?” is not a thing we should have to do, because the answer is no."

We’ve leapt over a lot of red lines in the last week. But one I find most worrying is Trump/MAGA/ICE have ceased even pretending to claim some criminal pretext for cracking down on protected speech. It’s just straight up “if you criticize us, you’re getting throttled/arrested/disappeared.”

I completely disagree. Being called “woke” is a f**king badge of honour. It’s the biggest compliment going. If people are so morally hollow that they turn basic human kindness into an insult then good luck to them. But woke is one of the few good things we’ve got going. So, woke it is.

she’s got a point

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

Umm... "Escape from LA II" is fucking dope. Really like the casting here.

True story bro.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

🎶 Just sold my car, to We Buy Any Car... 🎶

In South Park, San Diego, US citizens stigmergically rose up against Trump’s Gestapo. The revolt erupted midday when ICE began rounding up people at a restaurant; patrons and passersby alike dropped everything to confront the regime storm troopers. #3E #EndImpunity #StopICE

Trump still hasn't figured out that insane asylums and political asylum claims are different things

By Jake Tapper

I wonder how much Trump crypto you have to buy for a pardon as a dirty cop who got 10 years after getting caught on video accepting $75K in bribes from businessmen who wanted to buy badges?

You sure? Coz non-official acts of corruption are not immune from prosecution.

If they were all “monsters” you wouldn’t be afraid to afford them due process by standing in front of judge with evidence of said monstrosity BEFORE trying to ship them off to God knows where.

House chamber burst into laughter when Marjorie Taylor Greene called for "decorum."

Thou shalt focus on the current president's throbbing insanity and dementia. The previous president is no longer president and so it no longer matters.

Good morning and happy Tuesday to everyone. I don’t know who needs to hear this but tumors can be missed during routine checkups. But an ear will not grow back after being shot.

Tell me more about cognitive decline.

Ok. What sort of incalculable damage am I going to do today as an immigrant? I may write my next article or work on a book proposal

"Ice has become Trump’s private militia. It must be abolished" It's become fashionable for even progressive politicians to diss the 'Abolish ICE' movement. I make the political and moral case for abolition in my latest for @GuardianUS, with receipts: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

i'm hearing disturbing reports that Joe Biden is even older today than he was yesterday

I was going to summarize the article but there's too much. Nearly every aspect of rural life is being hindered by Trump's policies. Schools, farmers, coal, tourism, broadband and so on. Everything is more expensive, less safe, no longer active, understaffed and underfunded.
