You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

HE’S TALKING ABOUT HIS F*CKING GOLF GAME AS AMERICANS ARE LOSING EVERYTHING

The equivalent here isn’t “doctor gives penicillin for infection,” it’s “barber gives leeches to treat ill humours.”

I could think of a few medicines of my own!!

They absolutely could not possibly be clearer that they are going to try to cut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security.

Trump and Musk are slashing critical government programs like Medicaid and Meals on Wheels—lifelines people rely on—while turning the White House into a fucking Tesla dealership. This is not a serious government working to improve people’s lives.

BREAKING: Federal judge temporarily blocks the Trump administration from deporting a Palestinian activist who helped organize protests at Columbia University.

We predicted everything that has happened since Trump was elected over a year ago. None of this is a surprise.

🔥🔥🔥 Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested for civil disobedience after speaking against a MAGA display that the city council of Huntington Beach agreed to put up at the public library…..that’s what’s up….every word👇

Out for a coffee. It is a brilliant day, but it is nearly freezing here in Amsterdam. Walking past Anne Frank's Portrait "Let Me Be Myself" by Eduardo Kobra on the STRAAT, the Museum for Graffiti and Street Art.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

It's really this simple, folks.

Zelenskyy: "I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. Never."

Loud boos were heard during the US national anthem at the USA-Canada hockey game in Montreal. Thank you, Canada! Those of us still fighting to save our democracy, need all the help we can get! #ProudBlue #TrumpAGlobalDisgrace #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TheTurdReich

The sad fact is this lawless pronouncement by Trump is damn-near a quote from the democracy-busting presidential immunity ruling from a compromised Sup Ct. This is PRECISELY why Justice Sotomayor (joined by Justices Kagan & Ketanji Brown Jackson) said, “With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”

HORRIFIC: A woman shot her four young daughters before turning the gun on herself at a home in Wyoming. Three of the children were killed, and one remains in critical condition. Access to a gun can be the difference between life and death in a moment of crisis.

Dictator for a day has gone full Napoleon.

“Every system that has been hastily restructured without foresight, leaves behind exposed veins within the government’s framework. Anonymous watches. Anonymous waits…The time to act is fast approaching…We know how to strike...We are Anonymous. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.”

REPORTER: Is there an acting FAA director? DUFFY: *walks away* (The FAA director resigned on the day of Trump's inauguration under pressure from Elon Musk)

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here at Bluesky for the follows and the conversations and the constructive, substantive interaction. It's a great forum, a great resource for circulating and talking about the news, and -- most of all -- a pleasure. I'm grateful!

Just a sick broken man. Every aircrew I ever lost in peacetime accidents over 22-years of service and combat were white men. It’s dangerous.

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.

WOW I LOVE JOE BIDEN
