Why yes! Yes you are!

Listen up.

When you want to stack agencies with cronies and or steer contracts to friends, first think u do is get rid of inspectors generals. Yep! fits in perfectly with the Trump corruption agenda. So where are the democrats, no one has a clue to what the inspectors generals do unless you tell them.

I remember when advocating for mercy and compassion was considered Christian. Now it's considered radical ideology.

Any chance there are three more Republicans in the Senate who care enough about the country to stop a wildly unqualified drunken lech from becoming the Secretary of Defense?

As per usual, Trump has someone else pay for his fuck-ups.

THIS! 100% this…

He’s still a sexist. He’s still a predator. He’s still an angry drunk. He’s still a dangerous pick for Secretary of Defense. youtu.be/Q4Es-IDBDao?...

Carrie Underwood has gone from singing disapprovingly about an unfaithful man to singing approvingly *to* an unfaithful man.

January 7, 2025:

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

If your mom has to step in to help you out, you probably aren’t up to the job. Just saying.

It’s really telling that the NYT buried a single story about how Kash Patel wants to prosecute Trump’s political opponents underneath 6 Hunter Biden pardon stories.

Trump pardoned a dozen drug traffickers, bypassed & ignored DOJ input, pardoned dozens of Republican elected officials, business cronies, lawyers, friends, donors and campaign officials. Promised to pardon J6ers who beat cops. I don’t care about Joe pardoning his last son.

Trump "I had a great call with President Shinybum of Mexico. She will stop rapists and criminals from coming here!" President Sheinbaum "I informed Mr. Trump the best way to make rapists and criminals feel unwelcome in America, is for people to stop electing them." ow.ly/AP9R50UhcgT

Dark ages #2 coming at ya!

Don’t mess with Gen Z.

Tommy got his Putin talking points scrambled.

The guy spend a chunk of his childhood in an internment camp because our government thought he might be dangerous because he was of Japanese descent. He was also gay when you were forced to hide it. It’s been much worse for a lot of people in our history. George knows what he’s talking about.

Not sure if Elon is throttling me so I’m posting both this post and the same post on the other platform as an experiment. Let me know if you see this!

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system. He had help. It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms. Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court. 70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon. There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.

Good thing Trump had no connection to Project 2025.

People who think professional wrestling is real think that the allegations of covering up sexual assault against Linda McMahon and her husband Vince are fake. Make it make sense.

Hot off the drawing board.

I’m contractually obligated to tell you guys the Boston Red Sox added Jhoestynxon Garcia to their 40-man roster and his nickname is “The Password.”

Word of the day. Or week. Or next four years.

Zing!

When you think about it, it’s quite on brand for the GOP to seek to protect alleged pedophiles among them by preventing the truth from ever seeing the light of day. Eh hmm, Jim Jordan (cough).

I remember when attorney general nominees were nixed because they had paid their nannies without filing the required form with the IRS.

Good morning. I need Herschel Walker to be named Director of NASA to fill out my Idiocracy bingo card. Fingers crossed.

The plot thickens …

Someone said matt gaetz thought a “recess appointment” was where to meet his next date, and oh myyy
