Himes: We’re negotiating with the Russians apparently right now over Ukraine, right? Is it possible that our negotiating position is on that Signal chat? Yes, it is. So anyway, it’s Christmas morning in Beijing, Moscow… because of the lack of operational security that these guys are showing.

WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree? TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know. WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution? TRUMP: I don't know

Just tried to buy a box of bolts from aliexpress from a seller I’ve used several times before. I figured I’d have to pay extra but I thought I’d at least see how much. Nope- the seller doesn’t sell to US customers anymore

New, from me: I am dorky enough to actually read (ok, skim) budgets, and have never seen anything like Trump’s, which has converted a formal and professional document into a propagandistic screed to justify draconian cuts. Lets take a look. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/budgets-as...

Trump screaming at corporations to not be transparent about the tariffs is setting us up for exactly this: permanent price increase. Otherwise known as inflation.

If Biden, who is actually Catholic, posted a picture of himself as Pope there would be a thousand op-eds and cable news hits for months about how it was the most blasphemous thing an American president has ever done and we’d assume he had gone insane.

Like watching a car accident happened in slow motion

She got $250k for calling a 5 year old the n-word And they say white people have no culture

they are literal segregationists apnews.com/article/scho...

Wow, what a horrific typo. Right on the cover.

We need to say more explicitly and clearly: this is happening *because of* Trump and Musk's behavior. The threat is coming from inside the house. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

On the eve of the Civil War, a secessionist governor took over the St. Louis police, worried the city may resist Missouri joining the Confederacy. In March, Missouri seized control of the St. Louis police again. boltsmag.org/missour...

I don't see what all the fuss is about. All US businesses have to do is build a few tens of thousands of factories and then hire and train 10 million specialised workers who'll be willing to work for $3 an hour. Should take 6 weeks, tops. 3 if they use ChatGPT.

This is bat shit crazy www.thedailybeast.com/pam-bondi-ma...

QAnon is now official Trump administration policy

We have gone too far in indulging people's belief in astrology, tarot cards, etc. They're all stupid. You're not being a Scorpio you're just a jerk.

RFK Jr. rejects cornerstone of health science: Germ theory. arstechnica.com/health/2025/...

Guy at bar watching me post about hitting the limu emu with my car: man this guy must be going through some stuff. I hope he's okay Me in head: I bet its blood would be yellow

God damnit I hit the LiMu Emu with my car. Somehow it bleeds bright yellow and it's everywhere

stealing like meme from my hellsite replies because lmao

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.

Yesterday Bondi said Trump had saved 119 million lives, and today "are you ready for this, media?" - it is 258 million lives. It's a challenge to the press about how willing they are to accept, rather than debunk, obvious lies from a regime no longer anchored in reality.

In about six months “coal miner” and “border guard” will be the only jobs left

"I've met two people."

The right-wing ideal of masculinity is a guy who refuses to read history, constantly whines about not being the center of attention and immediately becomes trans if a single person asks "hey are you trans?"

this would be so funny if this guy wasn’t president

Remember on 24, Chloe had the little cellphone sized monitor attached to her real monitor for video calls? Why didn't that catch on

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

The president is playing videos at his political rallies of people getting their heads shaved at what is effectively a concentration camp. He’s sending people to that camp with no due process, and 9 in 10 have no criminal record. The rallies are eating it up. Forget “can.” It is happening here.

As seen on TV en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Made_fo...

Trump’s war on disinformation research has escalated into full-blown retaliation—shuttering programs, targeting academics, and rewriting the truth. The field must unite and fight back, write Dean Jackson and Prithvi Iyer.

my reaction to this is not "oh Trump's losing it" it's "the entire point of fascism is that the leader declares reality and everyone else has to follow it".

A couple weeks ago, I wrote that the MAHA movement does not want to eliminate chronic illness- it wants to eliminate the chronically ill. Since then, RFK Jr’s actions and statements have only reinforced my belief that his HHS will target disabled and sick ppl. www.thegauntlet.news/p/rfk-jrs-ma...

Whenever someone asks “why didn’t that guy interviewing Trump push back on him lying outrageously rather than just moving on”, the unwritten thing is that if you don’t just play along, nazis will burn your house down

RFK Jr. is ending the federal Narcan distribution program credited with the recent steep decline in overdose deaths. This despite his own past heroin addiction and his own brother dying of a drug overdose in 1984.

Incredibly telling moment. Trump is completely sure he is right here. We have a president that is pickled in his information bubble, high on his own supply, can't tell his administration's propaganda from reality. Next the White House will insist Trump is right!

Last week people were saying “no they drew those letters on to illustrate, they aren’t actually trying to pass that photo off as real” yes they are

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

By the way, the CEO of ICE, the private data supplier CFPB leadership wants to outsource this key regulatory tool to, is Jeffrey Sprecher. His wife is Kelly Loeffler. A cabinet member. The head of the Small Business Administration.

yes, how dare a retailer break out taxes from other expenses on the receipt. this sort of thing has never before been seen in America.
