A dying breed, soon to be a fossil: conservative, compassionate, empathetic, supportive, believer in facts, truth, honor, integrity, democracy, science, education, liberty. In other words, the antithesis of MAGAts.

These people are not even intelligent enough to lie about this shit convincingly.

America’s safety now hinges on a guy whose emergency contact is still his mom.

It’s almost as if it’s a bad idea to privatize mission-critical programs vital to national interests. Letting such programs be subject to the whims of egomaniacs and narcissists comes with certain…er…risks..

Elon Musk's companies getting DOGE'd is not how I expected all of this to end. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Let’s check the score here: TSA bungling puts a man on the watchlist who, in the end, shouldn’t have been there. A Senator cuts through red tape and gets this corrected. The man and the Senator are married. Therefore, THIS is the ‘scandal’ that CBS headlines. Meanwhile, over in The White House…

Let’s point out that this military operation of Ukraine far exceeds anything the US military has ever done against Russia or the Soviet Union.

The biggest mistake the Founders made in creating the checks and balances was leaving off some system to create legislation independent of the legislators. Expecting Congress to limit their own insider trading and lobbyist donations is classic fox guarding the hen house stuff.

Remember when this pic of Elián González was a national scandal instead of a daily occurrence?

In this interview we witness Musk lie about DOGE losing people’s Social Security checks, try to cozy back up to the public and restore Tesla value by distancing himself from Trump, yet also try to stay cozy with Trump so that all his work to stop federal oversight into his businesses is not undone.

What, exactly, do MAGAts think is the end game for all the civil rights abuse of trafficking people to foreign gulags? Once we have a Democratic President again, do they think people will stop immigrating here seeking a better life? The fix is not the border. It’s better immigration laws.

Fun Fact for all the MAGA rooting to see Americans kicked off of Medicaid and/or hurt by Medicare cuts: As those people move to private insurance, those corporate insurance companies will raise premiums FOR ALL to cover their increased cost burden. A Big Beautiful Hidden Tax.
