I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

🤣🤣🤣

make no mistake - the horror with which we all watched Otto Warmbier be detained and tortured… that’s the same horror with which every other civilized country is looking at us for what we are doing to Kilmar Armando Ábrego García (and others). He did nothing wrong. The inhumanity is breathtaking.

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences

The Korean parliament vowed to impeach their president EVERY WEEK until his party either stopped protecting him or the guy resigned in disgrace. No other business could proceed until they got rid of the attempted dictator.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

I was not previously aware that we had a system of government in which tax rates would fluctuate wildly from one day to the next depending on the president's desires.

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.

NEW: Here's a photo posted in 2018 apparently of Joe Kent, Trump's pick to head the National Counterterrorism Center, from the Instagram feed of a family member, showing he had the word "PANZER" tattooed on his arm. Why? I asked him, the NCTC, and the ODNI, and, so far, no response.

Opinion | I like fascism. I also like my 401(k). I have never felt more politically homeless.

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. 😻

you know things are going well when they break out the turnip photos

Boat derangement syndrome

I realize the Left is used to challenging the GOP because they are so shitty to poor people on economic policy but folks need to understand that the "economically conservative" GOP does not run the GOP anymore and we are dealing with a Christian Nationalist GOP

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

Never had a doubt

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

Where is our humanity?

Y’all gotta go read books. There’s no way around it. Read books. Form your own opinions. LEARN THINGS. READ BOOKS WHILE LIBRARIES ARE STILL AROUND

Tariffs will be lifted on penguins who agree to be completely white. by Stephen Miller

Who did this?

The only relevant political point is that Republican members of Congress are all supporting these tariffs 100%. They could stop them at any moment. Each day is on them. Everyone with a messaging bullhorn needs to make that clear. They can pull the plug now or pay the price at the polls next year.

Imagine you’re Timothy Haugh, a decorated general, confirmed unanimously by the Senate to head the NSA. And while you’re traveling abroad, you find out the President just fired you on the advice of a 9/11 truther whose bigotry once got her banned by Uber.

Too bad we're not a snap-elections kinda country

Holy shit--the tariffs are working. High-paying manufacturing firms are sprouting all over town. There's a little sapling industrial fabricator blooming in my backyard, offering $95k starting with a high school diploma. It looks so precious, glittering amongst the dew. The madman actually did it.
