"Our profit from the post office is the post office. Our profit from a library is the library. Our profit from a school is the school." read about how efficiency, as defined by these little smelly men, is a prelude to our eventual enslavement.

Effectively a full repeal of the largest climate bill in history. There’s no strategy for America’s future. We all get sicker and pay more in energy bills and suffer climate disasters, while some rich folks pay less in taxes. That’s it. Disgraceful.

“Another sign of a dying republic.” Exactly right.

I like presidents who haven't raped anyone.

Your daily reminder that the U.S. Postal SERVICE is a service that is designed to benefit taxpayers and not a business that should be expected to turn a profit.

box wine all ‘round because absolutely nothing fucking matters

Remember — it’s the stations whose anchors aren’t senior govt officials that are biased

everyone’s outta pope jokes, someone push another jet into the sea

I made dis.

Trump continually hiring from his TV favorites, like a 5 year old staffing up with muppets.

Just sayin', as someone who grew up Catholic: if you can call the new pope by his chosen name instead of the name he was assigned at birth, you can do the same for the trans folks in your life. It's a sign of respect in both cases.

the "this fucking guy" theory of history is extremely compelling!!

"When it comes to .. unidentified foraged mushrooms, I want to be free to form a relationship with a local wood spirit, look him in the eyes, finger his mulch, and then decide if I feel safe to eat the toadstools from his glade."

Congratulations Canada! You don't need to apologize for this result!

Sure why not?

crazy that an incorrigible drunken dipshit who has failed at everything of consequence he has ever tried is also disastrously bad at leading the single largest bureaucracy in the world

The Boomers may go down as a world-historic example of the people Ann Richards quipped about being "born on third base" — having come of age at the peak of unchallenged U.S. economic and geopolitical dominance — "and thought [they] hit a triple."

Anyone else feel like every day we read about another case where the regime is obviously defying the courts and also opinion pieces predicting the crisis we’re facing *if* Trump defies the courts? No wonder people are confused.

Kind of keen to get behind whichever 2028 Dem talks about MAGA-friendly gulag countries in Axis of Evil terms.

"Trump, who has benefited from the protections of due process more than perhaps anyone else in American history, doesn’t see why it should be afforded to anyone else."

he is risen

#Andor Day!

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after. But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

Bro they lobotomized your aunt

When the veneer of discipline falls away.

FMK: JD Vance edition.

"Unlike other issues, Trump is polling OK on immigration" isn't a reason for Democrats to ignore that issue, but rather a reason for them to attack it head on. Public opinion can actually be moved, Democrats. And on this issue there's a lot to push back on.

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison. It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.

If you’re changing the definition of human rights, it means you plan on violating people’s human rights.

When American citizens have to worry about returning to their own country from travel abroad, you ain’t living in a free republic.

I will always hold it against the fake money people that they appropriated “crypto” from cool things like your Sasquatches and Mothmans. They should have called their dumb shit something like Goofbux

The Vice President of El Salvador has told US Senator Van Hollen that the reason they are still holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia is due to the Trump regime paying them to do so. Trump needs to be arrested and brought up on human trafficking charges. #3E

AOC: Some of the Republicans whose districts we visited just warned their leadership that they’re not sure they can vote for Medicaid cuts now. We’ve got them on their back foot. But our job is not done. We will rally every corner of the U.S. We will not stop until they actually vote no.

We are a global joke.

This should be every single Democrat and the fact that it isn’t really exposes the ones who aren’t.

I guess all this time the right's talk about "beta soy cucks" was aspirational?
