I'll take three. Wordle 1,402 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟩🟩 🟨⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Gotta say, I struggle on some days to reconcile the fact that millions of Americans actually WANT to live in a country with viruses spreading freely, thousand of people getting kicked out of their jobs, billionaires feasting on the government & people being snatched off the street by secret police.

It turns out a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and financial fraudster does not make for a good President.

Impeach and remove djt, jdv, and mike johnson. Have the House elect a new Speaker with a 2/3 majority required and allow the new Speaker to ascend to the presidency. There really is no other way to clean up aisle 47.

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

April 14, 1993: Chicago Bulls fan Don Calhoun attends his first Bulls game in three years and throws in a 75-foot shot that wins him $1,000,000. Per Sports Illustrated, Calhoun was selected to shoot because a Bulls employee felt his β€œsuede hiking boots wouldn’t scuff the court."

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

What a joke American president. What a dangerous joke American president. I received my commission when Reagan was President. Never in my wildest dreams did I believe in the 1980s that one day the GOP would nominate such an imbecile as djt. Turns out, I'm not a profit.

Every time someone tries to explain to me how Liberation Day tariffs will bring manufacturing back to America.

Relieved of duty for implementing damage control. This Colonel deserves a medal.

90 day pause? That's like saying, "B!+*h I'm leaving you in 90 days." B!+*h got 90 days to plan da exit. July 10 gonna be epic!

As a reminder, when Trump says he is putting massive tariffs on China, or any nation, that means he is putting a massive tax on YOU. China doesn't pay a single penny. You, the consumer, do.

BIG UPDATE TODAY: This afternoon, the ACLU filed a new "class action habeas" lawsuit in New York challenging the Alien Enemies Act removals. They are seeking a temporary restraining order which would basically replicate the same thing they previously had with Judge Boasberg's order.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

This is what happens when you’re willing to risk it all over ending pronouns and Black history. Hope those cultural wars pay the bills.

β€œThis is not what we voted for.” Yes, yes, it is. You just didn’t think it could destroy you, too.
