Looks like Trump. Are we winning yet?

China is treating the orange felon like the moronic unhinged buffoon that he is and is using his temper tantrums against him. How embarrassing.

They used fear to get the media, the law firms, the universities and the private sector to comply. Fear of retribution. Retaliation. Revenge. Now, it’s the judiciary’s turn. This is what Fascism looks like.

Seriously, why is RFK Jr worried about dyes in food when his department is cutting safety standards for milk and chicken?

If it’s true that their only “evidence” against this judge is that she advised someone to leave out a side door, this is complete banana republic bullshit and should be unequivocally condemned by both parties.

They are auctioning off our Public Lands in the West for mining and drilling Many are Native American Sites Sometimes all this just shatters my heart

I’ve seen a very heartening number of Jewish people loudly proclaim that they don’t want to see due process gutted in the name of protecting them and I think it’s time we started to see more of that from Christians

Read this sentence from WaPo and tell me what jumps out at you: “Nearly two dozen crypto wallets acquired more than 100,000 $TRUMP meme coins, worth roughly $100 million.”

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.

Yeah, but he drank his way to the bottom of the fifth too.

The same shit, different assholes

Russia is being thoroughly crushed by Anonymous. Glory to Ukraine, glory to Georgia, and glory to the free people of the world. #OpGeorgia #OpRussia There is obviously way more that’s being done, but that’s best left known between the legion and the orcs. 🤫🤐

BREAKING: The Interior Dept just used a fake “energy emergency” to greenlight gas and mining projects on public lands. It’s a lie. There is no energy emergency. This is a giveaway to big oil.

imagine explaining to someone 10 years ago that this is about the vice president in 2025

Y’all, I think I found that welfare state the right wingers keep crying about

You know who actually has an anti-Christian bias? The Christian nationalists.

Greece has a budget surplus this year, and with that money they've decided to help people. 80% of renters will now get a month's rent from the government every year. The government will also invest in a Public Investment Program to build public infrastructure and create jobs.

It is time Generals! Take back our country from the Russian Asset!

Trump said no exceptions to his tariffs. Then, Apple CEO Tim Cook went to work “behind the scenes” — and poof, iPhone tariffs are cut. That looks like corruption, plain and simple. I’m pressing Trump officials — and Tim Cook himself — for answers. www.youtube.com/shorts/-RZH8...

It's wild that Europe, the allies the United States joined hands with to stand up against Russia (then doing evil business as the "Soviet Union"), is now having to stand up against *the United States* for enabling Russia's war crimes.

NBC has confirmed what we have been saying for weeks. Hegseth clearly copied classified strike schedules from a secure device to his personal phones. This alone would get a line service member thrown in prison. But when it’s SecDef we are supposed to ignore it.

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

What would he do if he were doing everything for Putin? I dare anyone come up with an answer besides what he's actually doing.

If you weren’t raised in an evangelical church, you might not know that those “Christians” think the Pope is burning in hell…

My ancestors taught me to freeze my flour, refrigerate my butter, wash my eggs before I crack them, and never buy meat that is pre-seasoned. I guess they prepared me for a country that doesn’t test the quality of milk…
