There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

Trump doesn’t keep promises

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

Texas sepsis = Tepsis?

Yep

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

Due to massive firings of federal employees, JFK’s Presidential Library has been closed until further notice. What a fragile pathetic weak deranged little felon.

Sad to say, I would not be surprised if journalists mysteriously started "falling" out of windows in the USA

Dear third-party voters, you’ve been awfully quiet. What’s up? What’s the game plan for the next 3 years and 11 months? Asking for 75,017,626 friends who did the right thing because we wanted to avoid all of this shit!!!

I almost feel bad for the MAGAs on Medicaid. Almost. Too bad all the non-fascists will suffer along with them.

Fox guarding the henhouse

Out of the 12,000 civil rights complaints the Education Department has put on hold since Trump took office: • 6,000 relate to mistreatment of disabled students • 1,000 are specific to sexual harassment/violence • 3,200 pertain to racial discrimination

Apparently whomever is doing the firing knows nothing about not just our nuclear program, but the rest of the government as well. Who would have thought www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Nothing says "I support democracy" like an oligarch whining that law-abiding protestors should be thrown in jail on President's Day. #elon #presidentmusk #uspoli #presidentsday #protests #usa #aoc #bernie #trump #potus #doge #donaldtrump #berniesanders #musk #elonmusk #vptrump

@gilduran.com At the 50501 protest in Baltimore

Today in Baltimore. #50501protest

📍California protests. Keep checking events.Pol-Rev.com for more listings, they are being added all the time. We are working hard to vet and approve events as quickly as we can. Nationwide protests THIS MONDAY, Feb. 17th, #NoKingsDay. @polrev.bsky.social #50501movement #fiftyfiftyone

In the 80s I protested KKK marches in Atlanta. Police in riot gear protected the skinheads & klansmen, a riot broke out just as I ducked into a store to see police battle protestors while I was safe inside. I suspect we will see more violence at protests. Stay safe Monday & in coming months. #50501

There's no bottom here.

Yall 😂😂😂😂 The marketing team, chefs kisses 😘

I saw a video of known alcoholic Pete Hegseth drinking multiple scotches in the middle of a televised presser and started laughing so hard I began coughing as I believe we're less than 2 weeks removed from him promising never to drink a single time as Secretary of Defense and nothing matters anymore

I am finishing up a Netflix documentary series on the Cold War. And while I usually think of how close we are to totalitarianism in terms of year (is it 1933? 1935?) I now suspect it's more like the beginning of the Putin Era. Year 2000, Russia. So many similarities.

6 questions, 3 scotches.
