Quick reminder for a lot of older dudes out there that testosterone therapy (AndroGel, Testim Gel, etc) is gender affirming care. Go forth and vote accordingly.

Unless and until smartphones are a government subsidized right afforded to all and not a privilege among those affluent enough to afford them, and the associated data being used is properly protected, F*CK this proposal and anything like it. First world BS at its finest.

He's mentioned "good soul" in statements a couple of times now. There has to be a lickspittle in his orbit that has a habit of saying that to him.

Trump exempting computers & phones from the tariffs today means that Chinese-made laptops now have lower tariffs than European Cars, Mexican Steel, & Canadian Lumber. Also means Vietnamese-made laptops have a lower tariff than Ethiopian coffee, Indian tea, & Guatemalan bananas

Of course, seeing as the US has no official religion, I imagine this order actuality applies to ALL religions, right? I mean, anti-Islam or anti-Hindi bias should be reported all the same, yeah?

AI-powered enforcement at work. Natural born US citizens are already being indiscriminately targeted, and they will continue to be until there are actual, tangible consequences for doing so.

Thing is, the most likely scenario is the dogebros were told "find me evidence of voter fraud", and the bros complied. Torture data long enough, and it'll tell you whatever you want to hear.

“Exclusively to Twitter” - just makes open corruption and conflicts of interest with the Trump administration and Musk. What they imagined about Soros is real life on steroids with Musk.

That limiting all communications from a federal agency to a privately owned social media platform which users must enter into a service agreement to use is only like, 8th or 9th on the list of absolutely corrupt abuses of power is really telling of where we are right now.

Further proof that most of this administration was chosen specifically because they are clueless about their respective departments. Makes it much easier to further dogshit agendas without pushback.

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy. But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

WATCH: @RepSwalwell explains why the SAVE ACT — just passed by House Republicans (and 4 Dems🤔) — is voter suppression that would disenfranchise millions, especially married women who changed their names. PSA: Non-citizens are not voting.

Makes me so sad. At least as American Millennial, there was a joke rivalry, but Canada were supposed to be our literal closest bro's in the world? The nicest people you could possibly meet. Like literally comically loving of Americans, you would NEVER do ANYTHING to hurt them. What have we done...

We still have blanket 10% tariffs on all countries in place, 125% China tariff, and a can kicked 90 days down the road on the rest. Please, don't pull another GW Bush Mission Accomplished on this.
