I’d celebrate if I weren’t so concerned about who will replace him. www.npr.org/2025/04/21/n...

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Looks like investors aren’t feeling great about that earnings report tomorrow.

BREAKING: The Secretary of Vodka shared actual battle plans on Signal with the Missus 🥃 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

To everyone celebrating today, Michelle and I hope you have a blessed and happy Easter.

Imagine that: a drunk Fox entertainment host can't run the largest agency in the world. It's a real shocker. www.mediaite.com/politics/the...

This is such a time...

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Meiselas: The public pressure was mounting. A 9-0 decision by the Supreme Court. Your voice matters. Senator Van Hollen showing up matters. The Trump regime can mock and post all the memes they want, but at the end of the day, the right result is finally starting to happen.

I call 🐂 💩.....

It would be nice if Trump didn’t do anything to screw us over today.

All day long yesterday, the MAGA dipshits on Elon Musk’s platform were screeching that the FSU shooter was a far-left LGBT Palestinian sympathizer antifa liberal prog. Huh. Weird. nypost.com/2025/04/18/u...

Donald Trump does not care about you. Plain and simple. Spread this video far and wide.

How about in the mid terms we nominate people who can actually win.

"House Republicans, in the middle of a financial crisis, when Donald Trump is ruining our alliances...the thing that the House Republicans spent time on is to try to disenfranchise millions of voters." Watch more from Marc Elias: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS8a...

Steve Kerr: "I believe in academic freedom. I think it's crucial for all of our institutions to be able to handle their own business the way they want to. And they should not be shaken down and told what to teach, what to say, by our government. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard."

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

At least we know who cares about America, freedom and the rule of law and who doesn’t. At least we know who will actually do something and who won’t.

Trump surrenders again.

WHAT DO THESE GENIUSES THINK WILL HAPPEN TO MANUFACTURING JOBS IN THIS COUNTRY IF THERE IS A RECESSION !?!?!?!?!?!!?

Tariffs? Out of control. Prices? Skyrocketing. Emergency powers? He’s abusing them. And yet… not a single question about whether he’s even fit to serve. The math ain’t mathing.

This was three months ago.

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

NEWS: The House narrowly voted to approve the GOP budget blueprint by a vote of 216-214, which aims to make massive cuts to Medicaid and give massive tax breaks to the wealthiest Americans.

All Of This….

Anyone else thinking that there’s going to be another pause for the tariffs on China so insider trading happens again?

We found the voter fraud!!!!!

The stupid... it b-u-r-n-s...!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

Hey next time I think it would be a good idea not to vote for a con man,

Yes

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke. It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it? He posted "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!" just hours before pausing the tariffs. It's time for everyone to ask House Republicans why they aren't fighting for an investigation into this.

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.

We are one people living on one planet. Isolationism, racism, & nationalism are backwards, regressive relics. Progress will require an evolution of consciousness. We must move forward, united in love, cherishing & protecting this miracle globe we call Earth. This is our home. This is the way.

A week after my remarks on the Senate floor I am more energized then ever to continue to fight for Americans on Medicaid, Americans worried about Social Security, Americans looking for opportunity in their local economy.

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

So, according to SCOTUS, the Trump admin can ship a person to a foreign gulag w/o due process of any kind, just so long as they have “access to due process” while detained in said foreign gulag, which of course they won’t. And MAGA actually thinks this shit will stop with people they don’t like?

Since Trump announced his worldwide tariffs: markets tanked, retirement accounts took a hit, and Americans are panicked. We can pass a resolution right now to stop this chaos–Republicans just need to grow a spine and put the American people over blind loyalty to Donald Trump.
