"The Poop."

Wasn’t expecting that….love it 🔥….the kids are alright!

Has the Trump Department of Defense team restored masculine warrior energy to the military? We asked three makeup artists touching up Pete Hegseth's foundation and eyeliner.

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

I don't want to dismiss what Trump and his people are doing as because they are stupid. They are many things from arrogant to incompetent. But...it really has been 100 days of stupid and Pete Hegseth is literally the poster child of it all. My latest. Subscribe for free!

MAGAts are now confused why they have to pay $100 for that t-shirt on Temu and apparently still can’t figure out what’s going on.

This is what courage looks like. Kudos to the team at 60 Minutes.

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

This Hegseth thing is funny and all — but the unprecedented incompetence, frivolity, and treachery of the entire cabinet puts us all at very real risk.

Vatican to announce its choice of a new Pope in a Signal group chat.

So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

This is something we can all do.👇🏼 File a complaint with the FL and DC Bar to have Pam Bondi disbarred for not complying with the 9-0 Supreme Court ruling to return Mr. Garcia from El Salvador.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

I’ve just posted this video message to members of the DC Bar, urging them to vote *AGAINST* AG Pam Bondi’s brother to be its next president. Please pass this on to anyone who is eligible to vote. www.instagram.com/reel/DIcQFxt...

The trade war between the US and China has spurred Brazil’s agricultural sector and pummelled American farmers. “It is a boon for farmers in Brazil and Argentina, and it will help their industry a lot,” points out a lead agriculture analyst. on.ft.com/42oB1f2

No need to wait until September: We’ve identified the causes of autism and even some of the environmental chemicals interacting with autism genes involved early fetal neurodevelopment during pregnancy

The VA is having mental health clinicians work in cubicle farms and tell veterans they can’t guarantee their privacy because of SecVA’s asinine return to work order. There isn’t room! Veterans will suffer. That’s the real goal. Force VA to fail. The price? Veterans. Enough is enough.

RIP Kurt Vonnegut. Gone 18 yrs. Dang.

Missouri lawmakers are considering a tax measure that would privilege the state’s wealthiest by fully exempting all capital gains income from taxation. This change would force low-middle income Missourians to shoulder a larger share of financing for state public services. www.epi.org/blog/missour...

The only things Republicans want to save with the SAVE Act are their asses.

The president may be a brainwormed idiot who's tanking the global economy but at least he's also an authoritarian monster renditioning innocent people to foreign slave labor camps.

We’re getting an economic nuclear winter. But it was a small price to pay for ending free speech on campus. by Bill Ackman

@60minutes.bsky.social finds no evidence of criminal records in US or any other country for 75% of Venezuelans kidnapped and rendered to El Salvador. Of the rest, 22% had non-violent arrests for things like traffic violations.

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

The Army is quietly considering a sweeping reduction of up to 90,000 active-duty troops, a move that underscores mounting fiscal pressures at the Pentagon and a broader shift in military strategy away from counterterrorism... www.military.com/daily-news/2...

American Bible Belt Evangelical Christians have gone all-in with Donald Trump, and in doing so they've had to sell their souls and abandon their namesake. Jesus has been rendered nonexistent in their midst, deported from their gatherings. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-loving...
