I mean, except Trump?

Weird that Bezos announced the Opinion section of the Washington Post would only publsh columns that support "free markets" and then they published a column from a guy supporting punitive tariffs on nearly every country on earth.

Governor JB Pritzker just announced that Illinois will be defunding investments in companies controlled by El Salvador to punish the country for holding American residents without due process. More of this.

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

Guess that Columbia v Harvard rivalry has been put to bed. Forever.

this is the weakest an american president has ever looked on the world stage, just being proudly cucked by el salvador in an attempt to troll

Columbia fumbled the ball big time. Cowardice gets you nowhere.

MIT following Harvard's lead here

I guess it’s good to know that the next Democratic president can ship Trump and his cabinet off to a Central American prison without a trial and we won’t ever have to worry about them coming back.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

I have no respect for ANY athlete that visits this White House. You are unAmerican if you do so, as is anyone who supports or enables this administration. Let me repeat that. You actions are in *direct* opposition to the Declaration of Independence.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

every single time

America just shot itself in the nuts to “own the libs”

ICE does patently illegal shit, because no one is holding them accountable.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Please tell me someone asked Gabbard or Ratliffe the name of the CIA operative named I'm the Signal chat. It's not classified, right? So they should have no problem making the person.

They're just so fucking stupid and incompetent.

Pete Hegseth: “Under the previous administration, we looked like fools. Not anymore.”🤦‍♂️

Today I have attempted to delete my Facebook account and delete my date from 23andMe. Both attempts have failed in errors. That doesn't give me a great feeling.

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

Sen. Mark Kelly is ditching his Tesla

The provision of the 14th amendment that the Supreme Court unanimously wrote out of the constitution existed for a reason. Its drafters knew what would happen if you allowed insurrectionists back into power.

Do his supporters actually find his incessant whining macho or tough?!? Make it make sense.

I’m voting no because Trump and Musk don’t want just a shutdown. They want us to stand down in our fight to protect Medicaid, Medicare, and the social safety net.

New Yorkers: Call Sen. Gillibrand’s office to vote NO on cloture and NO on the Republican Spending Bill. They vote in the morning. ☎️: (202) 224-4451

Portugal has now ruled out buying the US-made F-35 fighter jet because of Trump’s attacks against Europe and NATO. This will cost America tens of millions of dollars.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

"I decide who is a Jew"

Congrats to ADL, AJC and the other mainstream Jewish orgs content to sit back while a fascist delivers antisemitic smears against the most prominent Jew in American government

one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

If Russian troops went back to Russia the war would be over

🚨 School vouchers are a taxpayer-funded pipeline to religious institutions. 🚨 Public money should fund public schools, not religious indoctrination.

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

If the White House can call the Gulf of Mexico whatever it wants, the media (and the rest of us) can certainly choose to pronounce DOGE "doggie"

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

This reads like the opening paragraph of a novel so bleakly dystopian you'd put it down after five pages

This is really good messaging from Senator Gallego 👏

Make no mistake. We are in the midst of a complete and total Constitutional crisis.
