Will they put butcher paper down on his table with crayons so he can draw?

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

On the contrary, the American people have shit memories. In just 4 years, they forgot what it was like having a moron reality game show host in the Oval Office.

ABOLISH ICE. We don't want masked, armed thugs that terrorize America. We don't need ICE. Enough.

It’s lowkey hilarious that a group of alleged Alpha Males who love Jesus, freedom and/or fitness have fully cucked themselves to a corrupt degenerate slob.

"The Only Democracy in the Middle East" is arresting protesters for wearing "Stop The War" t-shirts. One officer said the slogan "is something that's illegal to have on a shirt." Gift link www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

Senior officers of the United States military have an obligation to speak up and be leaders. Where is the Army chief of staff? Will he or others speak truth to the commander in chief and put a stop to the assault on the integrity of his troops? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

@maddow.msnbc.com on how autocracy isn’t knocking at our door…it’s already arrived.

“This is intimidation. It’s authoritarianism. And it’s a betrayal of our Constitution.” — USMC Veteran Keegan Evans He served in Iraq. He helped fight wildfires in California. Now he’s sounding the alarm as Troops are deployed into U.S. cities over the will of local officials.

This is so insulting. So vile. Where are the Democratic politicians defending urban America where most AMERICANS live?

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

A plurality of the country is regularly exposed to this drip feed & it is destroying the Republic

The Democrat’s top line ad theme for the midterms…

Dumbfuckery

Democrats need to make it very, very clear that if Trump continues to abuse his power and weaponize government against the citizens that Chuck Schumer will write another strongly worded letter. A VERY strongly worded letter.

With regard to the matter of Donald Trump and Bruce Springsteen, the President of the United States has been called unfit, and in furious reply, he has demonstrated that he is entirely unfit. This is malignant narcissism. This is untreated and overt mental illness.

Great question

Republicans just blocked their own "big, beautiful bill" that would kick millions of Americans off their health care...because it doesn't cut Medicaid enough.

And as soon as Democrats stopped flying to the gulag and everyone stopped talking about it, Trump’s immigration numbers started climbing back up

The first thing Trump/Doge/Duffy did about aviation was to fire FAA staffers, including controllers. The second thing was to see whether a long-standing technology contract could be siphoned to Musk. The third was to blame DCA disaster on DEI. Fourth, calling controllers 'unpatriotic' Next?

Let's all play our favorite fun game "how would the media react if this was Joe Biden?" 🙃

Absolutely no one should die from measles. Not one single solitary person. Why is this even a debate

A fascist government in the United States is testing boundaries daily, ignoring the courts and getting no repercussions. None. Zero. If you don't think you could be next, you're not paying attention.

I really don't care that Melania has spent only 14 days in the White House since Trump's inauguration 108 days ago. But Republicans would have had a fit if Michelle Obama or Jill Biden ditched the White House and spent their time grifting with a new meme coin and a $40 million deal with Amazon.

I mean, ideally you'd want people to come for the games and then stay and travel around the country for as long as possible to spend their tourist dollars but I guess Trump and Vance have to find as many ways to torch the economy and our reputation as is possible.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be: We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

Trump on Day One: Your costs will be lower immediately. Trump on Day 100: Your kids will now have fewer toys and also you're going to pay higher prices.

They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.

The same fascist idiots cheering the end of due process once called Obama a "dictator" for using an executive order to extend the ACA signup deadline.

Trump is now desperately lying. He played himself. There are no negotiations. President Xi is going about his business solidifying deals w/Mexico & countries in Africa. The tariff gambit failed, and Trump is panicked. So off to the Pope’s funeral where no one wants to see him.

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!!!

Exactly as Elon and the oligarchs want.

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top. #HandsOff2025

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

The media should never, ever let this blow over. This is deadly incompetence.

The United States now playing the role that communist satellite states once played in the UN: sponsoring resolutions in its own name but on behalf of Moscow.
