Every accusation is an intention.

The accuracy of the political cartoons recently is incredibly painful.

I’m sure this is just an innocent coincidence. *coughs discreetly*

If Trump was president in 1940: “Britain, Germany has all the cards. Your Army fled like a dog in Dunkirk! You don’t have any cards and you need cards!! I just want peace and i don’t care who has the advantage! CARDS!”

Somehow, in the war between Russia and Ukraine, the first country to surrender was America.

Now that English is the official language of the United States, I look forward to everyone understanding the difference between “your” and “you’re,” “their” and “they’re,” and “to,” “two” and “too.”

Sadly, it’s time to revive this 2017 TIME cover.

Looking beautiful Time Square. 🇺🇦

He didn't wear a suit, but he received a pardon and was treated better than Zelenskyy was.

I had no idea of the horrific history of Retin-A. Thank you for educating me. 🤯

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable. 2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.

I’m lucky because my rare disease is relatively manageable. I have Addison’s Disease. It was caused by Covid in September 2023 and diagnosed last summer. Protect yourself and be kind to each other.

A reminder for these times.

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

aint no way we cut medicaid and housing assistance so jeff bezos could buy this shirt

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

This! 👇🏼

I cannot wrap my head around the madness we’re witnessing today . It’s beyond shameful . (via) @shayan86.bsky.social

This. It’s shameful beyond words. 💔

Kash Patel is doing such a great job on fighting crime that we are actually having to import sex traffickers from other countries.

Weird coincidence that the contract MUST absolutely go to the unelected person dismantling the government

This whole country wants bad things for others more than they want good things for themselves.

These stories amount to "the left was so annoying about pronouns or liberals made people feel so guilty about plastic straws they had no choice but to get on board with the second coming of the Third Reich and the destruction of the planet."

Excuse me?! What the actual…

It’s like we’re living in a fucked up modern day Oregon Trail. Ricky has polio Tommy was shot in school Bandits have run off with your social security Susan has died from an ectopic pregnancy You have died from a preventable disease Nazis have vandalized your grave

THEY'RE GOING TO ISSUE PERMANENT VISA BANS TO TRANS VISITORS TO THE US. This isn't just for athletes. The directive as stated applies to all visa applications made by trans folks and declare it material fraud to use a different gender marker on applications. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Studies show that funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) contributed to 354 of 356 drugs (99.4%) approved by the FDA from 2010 to 2019. Recklessly slashing NIH funding will mean that patients will be waiting much longer for life-saving treatments.

Can you please get it together @nytimes.com? The big problem here isn’t precedent. It’s the threat to our #democracy.

„Die Quote schadet ja in aller erster Linie den Frauen selbst.“

In 2025 Indiana wants 14 year olds to go to work instead of going to school. But it’s actually even worse than you think because the only reason anyone would prefer child laborers is because they’re easier to take advantage of.

Shame on the new US administration and all the GOP members that are standing by silently.

Not that you needed any more evidence that Musk is an utter buffoon but JFC.

Such a brilliant cover. Thank you!

Back in 2013—2013!—we at @motherjones.com warned people that Elon Musk was attacking government subsidies even as he built his whole empire on them. Yeah, we didn't know how bad it would get, but the signs were there: www.motherjones.com/politics/201...

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

My 2025 bingo card is full and they’re still calling numbers left and right

When your country’s leading party has gone too far Nazi for French far-right leadership to participate in a conference.

Ahem

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge
