Rep. Thompson: " Is there an independent expert that you can point to that says that [the Big Beautiful Bill] will not add to our national debt?" Bessent: "Yes." Rep. Thompson: "What are they?" Bessent: "Art Laffer." Rep. Thompson: "Art Laffer? Great."

The larger issue is that the "immigration problem" the average American wants solved does not exist. There is no mass of illegal immigrants flooding into the country to commit crimes. The entire situation that would demand mass deportations is a fiction created by Republicans to stoke grievance.

Look at this shooting form. It’s the most clutch shooter in the NBA playoffs.

Someone make this make sense!

Forts. We built forts. What were we fortifying? Being found.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

The most incompetent administration since the last trade surplus.

POV: the Galactic Empire applies Section 232 to impose 50% tariffs on kalkite, synthetic kalkite, kalkite alternatives, kalkite substitutes, and most alarmingly: Deep, substrate, foliated kalkite.

Columbia completely caved and are getting their accreditation pulled anyways. Anybody that doesn't go nuclear on these people when they even sniff at you is nuts. *COLUMBIA NO LONGER MEETS ACCREDITATION STANDARDS, US SAYS

Again, I ask, if you're a leader of another country, how do you ever negotiate with this level of incompetence? When it's too dumb for even Kennedy to comprehend, that should tell you everything right there.

8 Years of this stupidity.

Liberty University already exists.

22 years ago I pivoted from working on antibiotic resistance to pandemic viruses. Since then, I've argued that if we care about saving US lives in expectation, advance capacity for producing bird flu vaccine offers by far the greatest expected return on investment. ... We were so goddamn close.

His grandfather was born in 1790.

The most useless President of all time. #TACO

Hey look, he doesn’t know how tariffs or the laws work. Who could have guessed? 🌮

My time as the superspreader is over, but I expect my virus to continue to grow.

The only big beautiful Bill I’ve ever cared about

There's a great investigative piece - or book! - to be written about who is actually governing in this administration. Who writes the EOs, who decides when they go to Trump, etc. This is a reality TV show masquerading as a presidency.

Tell me you don’t know how tariffs work without telling me you don’t know how tariffs work.

Take your masks off you spineless jackboot thugs.

I love basketball. What a great game.

It's so painfully obvious that when you let capitalists run the government they take risks, and they're used to it. Problem is that's not what government is for. And when they walk in and see all this risk mitigation they assume inefficiencies without understanding the premise.

Trump Truth Social Post: I declare 6,538% tariffs on Serbia.

What are 3 of the teams in the draft that don't deserve to win the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes? Probably, Dallas, Spurs, and 76ers. Oh damn. Go Hornets!?1

The Founding Fathers: OH WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!

I hope she sues the ever loving shit out of ICE and the DOJ. I hope her family makes Rubio and Noem's life a living hell for putting her through this. This administration needs to be drawn and quartered for these jackboot tactics against innocent humans. Despicable.

Not to mention ICE's habit of breaking into the wrong person's house. Using jackboot thugs to carry out a racist agenda is not going to end well.
