He does this little dance every time he gives criminal President more power.

In a less imperfect world, Musk and Trump would be forever cast as killers of children, and this would be front-page news for months and the subject of Sunday sermons in every church.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Via @fiona-ndre.bsky.social: For years, persecuted Christians abroad — including Iranian Christians — has been a cause célèbre on the right, including Trump. But this week, CBP arrested Iranian Christian asylum-seekers as their pastor looked on, despondent. religionnews.com/2025/06/27/p...

The killer was serving Trump.

Brilliant!

And it wasn't immigrants...🤔🤔

Saw an article suggesting that intentionally making yourself look weird is a sign of true commitment to Dear Leader. #Mar-a-LagoFace

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets? I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

Welcome to Trump’s Amerika.

Vichy France also supported the Luftwaffe's air raids on England, so this tracks for Democrats.

Lots of Americans who believe in traditional morality don't mind if the president says "fuck" on camera as long as he's white while he does it.

Green-card-holding army vet with a Purple Heart forced to leave US after 50 years due to long-ago drug violation, related to his PTSD. Stories like this do not make me feel safer. Do you? www.npr.org/2025/06/24/g...

Gonna continue my crusade against the NYTimes's obsession with not saying bad words to say this is so pathetic:

Seeing Trump flail trying to manage Musk, Putin, and Netanyahu makes me think Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham, and JD Vance gave Don a misleading view of how pliant fascists are.

Join us. Fight back by telling 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 story. Because your story is America’s story.

I don't know how to convey to Americans that they voted for an administration that wants these children to weep for their mother

What is Trump doing? Sending masked unidentified thugs after a hard working guy who raises his children right—beating him up, arresting without a warrant. Trump’s Amerika.

Can’t vouch for these numbers but it sounds right. Grand Old Pedophiles.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

OUTRAGEOUS: A man who witnessed an immigration raid at a shopping plaza in Los Angeles was forcefully removed from his car and taken into custody for simply filming the activity. Welcome to Trump’s Amerika. 😡 ktla.com/news/local-n...

The Seven Deadly Sins are Pride, Greed, Wrath, Envy, Gluttony, Lust and Sloth. US voters in 2024 were apparently looking for a president who checked all the boxes.

Omg what is wrong with these people?

Cartoon by @billbramhall.bsky.social.

The at home assassination of a state lawmaker should be getting a bigger reaction from the President than someone throwing a rock at a Tesla dealership.

More whitewashing of Trump by the Times.

Do these guys look like federal agents…or just street thugs?

“Hi yes I am a white supremacist and I am going to take my country back and I am too scared to ride the bus”

Great convo with my Inquirer buds: What was more force used on a Latino senator than on an alleged assassin www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Masks, no uniforms, badges or warrants. And they don’t identify which agency or why they are arresting. Just plain lawlessness. In Trump’s Amerika.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

Going to war or not isn’t really important because “We all are going to die.”

Trump created the problem. The single reason Iran was so close to obtaining a nuclear weapon is that Trump destroyed the diplomatic agreement that put major, verifiable constraints on their nuclear program.

Tucker Carlson, of all people, showing how easy it can be to pop the bullshit bubble if you don’t mind making a liar angry should shame every White House reporter.

A few years ago, Jon Lovett floated a theory that media treats Democrats like protagonists - to be challenged, accounted, and forced to be behave in growth-oriented ways - while the GOP are treated like antagonists - immutable, expected to disrupt, thematic obstacles. Thinking about that a lot.

The more unpopular and thwarted Trump becomes at home (polling, Congress, the courts), the more he'll look for ways to act as an unstoppable strongman. Stuff like ICE raids, pardons, but No. 1 is his ability to start a war I always feared this moment would come, but it's sooner than I thought

A reminder that Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the Iran nuclear deal on May 8, 2018 during his first term. The irony that he’s screeching about making a deal now is lost on MAGA.

Regrettably not enough good people in Utah. The voters here chose Lee over a center right independent candidate of good character and with superb credentials.

Good morning. If the the Senate passes the Republican budget bill, 40% of American families - those with lower and middle incomes - will LOSE money. They will become poorer. But the richest families will get an average $270,000 tax cut. Because they only care about the rich.

It’s not pleasant living among people who vote for a asshole like this.
