The Trump “administration is a cruel farce. Trump ran for another term not because he had any clue how to transform America…He ran in order to stay out of jail and to get revenge on those who, with real evidence, had tried to hold him accountable to the law.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/o...

You mean to tell me that the guy who facilitated the release of 5,000 TALIBAN SOLDIERS can't manage to get back the one guy he sent to El Salvador by mistake? I call bullshit.

On this day, April 14, 2025, the President of the United States openly defied the Supreme Court’s unanimous opinion of April 10, 2025, ordering him to “facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador

At what time?

this photo of a charred haggadah (the book jews use at the passover seder) from governor shapiro’s house breaks my heart. www.thedailybeast.com/pictures-cap...

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @andertoon.bsky.social )

There is a 0.000% chance he wrote this one.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - President Lyndon B. Johnson

This is hilarious

Love her! ❤️

War hero schools a chickenhawk.

No criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelans deported to CECOT, the El Salvadoran maximum security mega-prison known as a “black hole of human rights.”

Polls close in Wisconsin in five minutes.

If billionaires are allowed to engage in this kind of vote buying scheme, that's pretty much the end of democracy

The President of the United States is such a pathetic, thin-skinned, insecure baby.

Casar: One of the most important things I learned is how so many of the most right-wing elected officials break things, do not want services to work, and then campaign on them being broken in order to gain political power.

Give me it. ❤️

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning: "As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

Tammy Duckworth served as a pilot in the Iraq War She lost both her legs when her helicopter was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade fired by Iraqi insurgents Her perspective on the Pete Hegseth Signal debacle demands attention And should be required viewing by every citizen across the country

Think about how many "oopsie" Signal chat posts or other comms mistakes Pete Hegseth will make while drinking on the job. His judgement is fogged by ignorance, arrogance and alcoholism. WE ARE NOT SAFE! Hegseth must resign!

This is the bomb!!! 😂😂😂 #HumiliateTheGOP

Democratic House Rep. Jared Moskowitz using Pete Hegseth's emojis in his letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson to form a select committee to investigate the Signal group chat texts is hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

“Under the previous administration, we looked like fools. Not anymore.” Pete Hesgeth, just before he became the lead figure in multiple stories about how this administration is run by fools

I'm going to post this every damn day (I hope you will share far and wide) and I hope Senator Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social does an update every week for us. This amount of corruption IS NOT NORMAL! youtu.be/hycoCYenXls?...

Elon Musk is fighting for his political life in Wisconsin. Here’s a race that could shape the future of the US.

The last few days made me feel so much better, knowing that this bunch is not gonna win a war against Canada.

So it turns out Pete Hegseth lied. And Michael Waltz lied. And Tulsi Gabbard lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And John Ratliffe lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And as ever Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic were telling the truth. This is why journalism matters.

On no planet is this NOT classified information

The last thing I’ll say about this epic national security fuckup by Hegeseth: It doesn’t matter if he was drunk or not, he still put this country and our lives in danger. He should be fired immediately and his security clearance must be revoked. This is astonishing incompetence by any measure.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

This is correct ⬇️

Lying is pretty much part of the job description when you work for Trump.

If this were Biden and Harris, Republicans would scream "impeach and remove" at the top of their lungs. This should be no different. Impeach and remove Trump and Vance immediately. This scandal warrants immediate action. We need arrests, firings, demands for resignations. NOW. Loudly, constantly.
