I also want to comment on his language. I think - me - Donald Trump - has decided that you get three dolls. Not our government. Not Congress. Not you. Me. I get to make the decision that you get 5 pencils. This is my decision and mine alone. He has completely lost his fucking mind.

All of us…

Facebook tracked when adolescent girls deleted selfies so it can serve a beauty ad to them at that moment. 😳

Trump is stumped when it comes to abiding by the Constitution. Trump was asked on “Meet the Press” whether he believes that he needs to uphold the Constitution during his presidency. Casually dismissing the oath of office, Trump responded, “I don’t know.” In all probability, Trump has…

Stephen Miller doesn’t fear outrage. What really rattles him is being laughed at. For someone obsessed with power and relevance, nothing stings more than being dismissed as a punchline. So, let's get to work. Add your Miller mockery below. 👇👇

I interrupt your regularly scheduled doom about all things Democratic Party to report that Something is Happening in Pennsylvania

Musk built Grok to flatter MAGA, but now they're furious it won't lie to them on command. Watching them argue with a chatbot for refusing to parrot nonsense is like seeing toddlers yell at a toaster for not making chicken nuggets.

Tell em, @libradunn1.bsky.social and @semperwry.bsky.social <3

By this Pam calculation, one pill has to kill more than five people. Math is hard.

BOOM....

Hey evangelicals and seventh day Adventists… come get your antichrist.

I could believe he'd wear white robes and a pointy hat. But not these ones...

I hate the internet

While they use antisemitism as an excuse to go after students and universities, they support antisemitic political parties in Europe.

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

Me and a friend and a couple of Eurorail passes and a copy of “Let’s Go” getting thrown off a train in the middle of the night when we weren’t even sure what country we were in. Come morning, turned out it was Czechoslovakia, a year before the Velvet Revolution. The best times. Prague is gorgeous.

There is no limit to their unconstitutional audacity. Shocked/not shocked. Trump Allies Sue John Roberts To Give White House Control Of Court System talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-a... via @TPM

The President just effectively signed a statement that he is committing a crime, violating a criminal statute enacted with overwhelming bipartisan majorities (it passed 96-2 in the Senate). Here is the law and his post. 1/3

It will irritate me to my dying days when I think about how Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts delayed Trump’s immunity case for 9 months When he’s now ordering parties to file briefs on Trump administration emergency applications within 10 days

modems screaming at us in the 90s was a warning and we didn't take it

I’m still convinced that a large number of these protesters are psyops. Last year, they followed my Dem congresswoman around everywhere she went. Since the election, they’ve disappeared. 🤔

Hell yeah! Put this on loop—this wise man speaks for me. 🔥

crazy that an influx of dense infill housing can lower prices and make homeownership more attainable

Weird that Bezos announced the Opinion section of the Washington Post would only publsh columns that support "free markets" and then they published a column from a guy supporting punitive tariffs on nearly every country on earth.

In Reagan's 1980s, America had just 35 undocumented immigrants behind bars. Today, nearly 48,000 sit in squalid detention, many thrown there by a mask-wearing U.S. secret police that smashes homes, cars and violates human rights It's time to abolish ICE. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

When you’re getting lectured by the <checks notes> German government on failing to account for the dangers posed by right-wing extremism, it might be time to take a seat.

This is SO powerful. Please read the English transcript of @anntelnaes.bsky.social’s excellent speech. How far is 🇺🇸 from jailing political cartoonists? How shameful is it that those who own our press bow to fascism in advance?

It happened. My BlueSky count just passed my count from the hellsite. You guys are the best. It’s just better here. Thanks for having me.

What is the definition of #QuidProQuo, anyone...?

When confronted by Trump, so many people and organizations look to polling for guidance, get paralyzed, talk in circles or just fold like a cheap suit. Disabled American Veterans, on the other hand, has taken the right approach. This is how you respond.

This is what you’d expect in a dystopian film set in the near future. Shitty cyber-esque graphics, insanely dark fucking policy, unbelievably Bratz-ass Homeland Security secretary, maybe put some little flying cars in the background.

Trump’s string of losses on EO’s targeting law firms continues unbroken: “Using the powers of the fed’l govt to target lawyers for their representation of clients..in an overt attempt to suppress & punish certain viewpoints..is contrary to the Constitution” www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-e...
