I want politics to be about a better everyday life. Here's what that can look like:

Tesla is done in Germany: 94% say they will NOT buy a Tesla.

Christian Nationalists talking about "Anti-Christian Bias" has me raising a perfectly penciled eyebrow. Because the most biased things I've ever heard about Christians didn't come from atheists or Muslims, they came from fellow Christians. For example, Baptists mock Catholics as "Mary Worshipers."

Trump just signed an exec order to end paper Social Security checks by Sept 30—screwing over 485,000+ Americans, many of them elderly, disabled, or without bank access. Cruel, calculated, and cowardly. tinyurl.com/Fool-Trump #HandsOffMySocialSecurity

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

The grift is obvious…

There’s a total disregard for the humanity of others. They are cruel like it’s their kink.

We have been begging trump to "stop!" for years now, it's laughable to believe trump thinks for one minute telling putin to stop will make any difference whatsoever. Hi trump-ego, meet putin-ego, have fun screaming until you're both blue in the face. #VladimirSTOP

Last month, after news broke that Hegseth was using Signal to discuss sensitive military operations, one of his closest military aides made an unusual inquiry to DoD's chief information officer: Would they grant an exception so Hegseth could keep using Signal freely? www.cnn.com/2025/04/24/p...

F*ck rUssia! F*ck USA!

Keystone cops

“Gun registry? No. Can't do it. Impossible. Autism registry? Yes, we need to know where you are...” “Fuck all the way off, sir.” Seriously! 😎✨

The sad thing is, if the key people who work at 60 Minutes all leave, Trump ultimately gets what he wants: A compliant broadcast which will be favorable to him so he can lie with impunity Because he’ll have the veneer of authority from a formerly independent press apnews.com/article/60-m...

988 is suicide hotline for LGBTQ This administration doesn't care about anyone who isn't them! This needs to be thwarted by the legal system and by people around the country standing up for the community Please share and do whatever you can for our friends and family

He’s already fired everyone that can investigate his companies! So now’s he’s going to throw a fit and blame the Dems for hurting his feelings and leave to make $billions unimpeded!

We cannot normalize the Abrego Garcia case. Remember, the Nazi extermination camps weren’t in Germany. They were placed in occupied territories to strip people of legal protections. Trump’s regime is using the same strategy by removing people from U.S. jurisdiction. They won't stop here. Stay alert.

Does Kristi Noem carry $3,000 in cash in her Louis Vuitton because she can't get a credit card or because she doesn't want a credit card recording of where she spends money?

Another stellar day in the markets cuz President Toddler just can’t provide any sense of consistency or respect for the law. 😡

Bull Shit 😡🖕💥

No court order. No charges. No Miranda rights. Any American citizen could be subjected to the same unconstitutional treatment, and be arrested and jailed. "They are acting with complete impunity. It's the most vulgar and brutal thing I've ever seen. I'm ashamed of what this country has become."

While the Rs in Congress sit back and cede their power to dear leader while he trashes our country's economy and leadership in the world, how many of you think they've been threatened with violence already?? It's their country too!

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Many maga voters are happy that finally "real change" is happening. Sort of like cutting off your nose to spite your face... change. :-/

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Hey, Justice Roberts, is this what you meant by "“facilitate and effectuate the return" of Mr. Abrego Garcia? Because I'm not a lawyer, but it sure as hell looks like contempt of court to me.

••••MEASLES UPDATE•••• The measles crisis in the U.S. continues to grow. Infections have now resulted in 800 cases across 24 states. 88 new cases have been confirmed in just the last week. These numbers do not reflect a plateau. In fact, experts warn these numbers are a severe…

Nailed it.

Due process is constitutionally afforded to anyone in the USA, citizen or not. I would like Marco Rubio and every GOP Congressperson and Senator to go on record NOW that they no longer support due process. It's what they're saying by their silence. One reporter needs to make them SAY IT out loud.

Don't let the last words said by Americans before our country completely collapses be "We were just following orders."

ICE Agents should never be able to hide behind “just following orders.” They are Gestapo for a dictator and it should never be forgiven nor forgotten.

Republicans are trying to steal an election in North Carolina. For the sake of our democracy, let us hope the courts once again prevent that from happening. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/repu...

"This isn't a battle of your choosing. But it is the battle for which you will always be judged. This is the moment you must show the world and history which side of the Edmund Pettis Bridge you are standing on." - Stuart Stevens

Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key. That right?

The White House basically gave Boasberg no choice. And unless they start cooperating very quickly, possibly even if they do, they’re looking at criminal contempt like a freight train. That’s going to raise some tricky issues of penalty, but the underlying finding should be secure. What total jerks.

oh ok give me a moment while I look for my shocked face 🙄 oh wait that’s not it 🤮dang where is it 😵‍💫oh wait here it is 😱
