Fuck trump

Perfectly said.

4 ex-Dem grifters who all came to realize the Dems weren't gullible enough.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Fresh out of prison after Trump’s pardon, Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was arrested today for assaulting a woman protesting his event.

POLITICO: Judge Abelson said “longstanding court precedent bars the federal government from ‘leveraging its funding to restrict federal contractors and grantees from otherwise exercising their First Amendment rights.’” @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Congratulations to a great country.
