Gotta love how brazen this White House is about completely making up numbers. Total Qatari GDP is <$250B

Breaking news: mob bosses who are paid protection money without explicitly indicating what will happen if they are not paid are not to be considered corrupt.

When’s the last time an American politician lost an election in Canada? New frontiers of being a complete and total loser.

Love spending more on groceries for literally no reason. Thank you tariffs!

Here’s to the man at the airport eating an Italian sub for breakfast. America.

American exceptionalism.

Trump tried to disappear a U.S. citizen

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

Imagine trying to deport someone for their "expected beliefs"

describing struggling people who need help as "playing video games all day"—all while giving $38 billion in gov contracts to elon musk to *literally* play video games all day—is vile on every possible level. failed state behavior

A very happy “I forgot today was taanit bechorot” to all who celebrate.

Being a lawyer is weird because sometimes you just say tortfeasor or estoppel instead of normal words.

Counterpoint: holidays are nice.

Thisi s the funniest fucking thing.

*whispers* 10% across-the-board tariffs are still bad.

Oh.

Fact check: I made burrito bowls for my family for dinner, and everyone was happy including me.
