Are they going to keep changing Musk’s title like Deniro’s character in Casino? He’s lucky Harry Reed is gone. Musk will be Government Entertainment Director by next week.

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

You can’t study warfare for at least the last two centuries without realizing that wars are mostly won & lost by logistics, supply, command & control, strategy. So aside from radiating Chernobyl levels of small dick energy this is just wrong abt what a sec def needs to do.

Pro life party everyone. I guess that never specified which lives.

I can’t believe this woman had a shot at a statewide office in NC. The sad part is, she is the face of the current GOP.

Go birds!

For those following along at home, Jefferson Griffin and @northcarolinagop.bsky.social has now lost every single court case they've brought in their quest to overturn the result of this election they lost. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

"The chaos of these past few weeks shouldn’t mask that in this period, Trump has also waged as direct a campaign against a single, vulnerable minority as we’ve seen in generations."

i wonder why these guys hate the CFPB so much ohh

They hate the CFPB because it stops companies from ripping you off. It helps stop the scam economy.

I would add we need to break the propaganda that “everyone who went to any Ivy League school is smart.” Just because you are good at memorizing facts and regurgitating it on a test doesn’t mean it has real world applications.

Affirmatively stating that you are a racist is no longer a fireable offense. But supporting workplace diversity is.

again this is a full scale attack on constitutional government

It’s only been 11 days since Ohio State won the national championship, and look how bad everything is getting.

HARD TIMES create DEMOCRATS DEMOCRATS create GOOD TIMES GOOD TIMES create REPUBLICANS REPUBLICANS create HARD TIMES

My biggest worry about 2026 is if Cooper gets the nomination and is too polite to throw some sharp elbows. Tillis is a fake moderate. He is MAGA all the way and it should be called on it.

Jennings: This salute trutherism is outrageous.  Rampell: Do it right now on TV! If you think it’s a normal way to greet people, do it right now on TV. Why won’t you?!

This is the predictable result of people thinking that immigrants have no access to law enforcement or justice. I’m glad that the GOP is the party of Jesus. In the sense that when I see them turn a blind eye to the obvious results of their policies I say “Jesus, what is wrong with them!”

This is the modern GOP. It is only about patronage and dividing up the spoils. Everything else is a distraction.

Good for McConnell. Shame on Tillis. VOTE. HIM. OUT.

Sending law professors to the mines not as a punishment but just as an education that there is a real world that exists

I think Dems need to simplify their message and just state unequivocally that the GOP hates women. They welcome abusers and misogynists with open arms. Repeat this in every interview.

Velázquez: Donald Trump did not care a bit about safer communities when he released those who were convicted of beating the shit out of police officers. So, don’t come to us and talk about security and safer communities when you do that

We need to stop letting lawyers think this is some kind of game. They are attempting to do real damage to real people. Playing word games to get to your desired outcome isn’t clever. They are destroying people’s lives. We should state that plainly and clearly.

I'll never get tired of posting this...

Are states going to start running deficits to pay for disaster relief? Most states are required by their constitution to break even in their budget. This seems like a really bad idea especially in red states that already have budgets cut to the bone.

You know, because “free speech”

thank you for your heartfelt story that is tangentially related to my skeet about dildos

I think we are so poisoned by Congress and the filibuster that we think all laws and regulations are permanent. We can just try something, and if people are harmed we can adjust the policy. The idea that bad policy will live forever is ruining a lot and discouraging us from trying new things.

Outrageous! This needs to blow up. They want to throw out 60,000 votes and steal the state Supreme Court election in NC!
