Last place. Loser.

Oh look, Ron DeSantis is totally not corrupt — he just sent $10 MILLION in taxpayer money to his wife’s “charity,” which then “magically” funneled $8.5 MILLION to a PAC backing his crony. Nothing to see here, folks. Just good ol’ wholesome Florida family values. 🙃 #DeSantisScandal

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

Days since Navarro said this: 10 Trade deals: 0

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

From now on, no matter what job she holds, I’m calling Kristi Noem the “Secretary of Handbag Security”

I will never understand how a group of bigoted women go all out to destroy the rights of a tiny, marginalised group of predominantly harmless women instead of using their centuries of built up rage to actively destroy the patriarchy and the actual men who do us real harm.

It’s good to cut waste, fraud, and abuse. It’s not good to destroy value add government agencies with reckless abandon in a way we’ll pay for in other, much more terrible ways later.

Springtime sunset

Corporations who donated to Republicans were more likely to get tariff exemptions during Trump's first term. Now, tech companies like Apple are getting major tariff carveouts. Who donated $1M to Trump's inauguration? Apple CEO Tim Cook. It's crony capitalism.

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

When will farmers learn?

From Sweep NJ ANYONE entering the US: Do NOT sign form I-407 🚨Warning!🚨 We have heard reports of green card holders, who are returning to the U.S. from trips abroad, unknowingly signing Form I-407 and getting their green cards taken away.

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

Rand Paul: "I can't support a fallacy that is gonna make us lose our wealth. I have a retirement account too. I want my retirement account to stay there. And I think tariffs is gonna decimate it."

If you changed your name, don't have a passport, or can't easily jump through red tape, the Republican SAVE Act will make it harder for you to vote. They don't want voters to decide elections. They want the billionaires who spent $2.6 BILLION in the 2024 elections to decide.

my humble opinion is that if your job is to manage risk and make big decisions about markets and you screw up your judgement this badly you should be disqualified from ever managing money and also shunned completely from speaking on the subject in public again

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”. He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”. The job was helping people with disabilities.

when it looks like corruption and sounds like corruption it’s probably corruption www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Attention White House: Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

Defence Ministry Update: Border surveillance has not detected any abnormal activity. We stand rock-hop-ready to rock, set to defend ourselves against all threats both foreign and domestic (elephant seals mainly)

Sen. Jim Banks told a laid off U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) employee who approached him that they “probably deserved it” and they “seem like a clown.”

Everything they do is filled with chaos and cruelty: today HHS workers discovered they were fired when their security badges stopped working. This is the way you treat your fellow Americans? 

From 2001-2018, tax cuts cost us $5.1 TRILLION. Almost 2/3 of that went straight to the richest 20% of Americans. 22% went to the richest 1%. Those numbers have only gotten worse since. Don't let anyone tell you we have a "spending problem." We have a trickle-down problem.

The Department of Government Efficiency, for example

WATCH: Did you know? ProPublica is keeping a list of who works at #DOGE. We’ve also been reporting on who’s in charge. Is it #ElonMusk, his lieutenants, or a bureaucrat named #AmyGleason? 📰: @chrisbing.bsky.social, Avi Asher-Schapiro and @anniewaldman.bsky.social 🎥: @josesepulveda.bsky.social

What do you get when you combine leaked phone numbers, public Venmo transactions, personal Gmail threads, and a Signal group chat about launching a military strike? Apparently...Trump’s national security team. whatwasthat.show/p/trumps-tea...

if the first words out of @hillaryclinton.bsky.social’s mouth every morning aren’t “are you fucking kidding me with this shit” then she is far less profane than I am

Padilla: By the time the water was released, the fires were already contained. There was no way that water could even make its way to Southern California. When the hot, dry months come and farmers need that water for irrigation, it’ll be gone. And you can’t get it back.

Reminder in Wisconsin: polls close at 8pm; you can same-day register if you bring your photo ID and proof of address; if you’re in line, stay in line; any questions, call WisDems VoPro hotline at 608-336-3232

If you’re in Florida—it’s go time. @joshweil.bsky.social and @gayforcongress.bsky.social are proven leaders who will fight for Social Security, veterans, and public schools — while keeping Trump and Musk in check. Find your polling place at:

WATTERS: You've been talking about this gay barber from El Salvador with some stupid tattoo for weeks. Weeks, Jessica. It's just a gay barber. GUTFELD: He's not into you.

Wisconsin and Florida have real chances to send Elon and Trump a clear message. Get out and vote today!

Here’s an update on the guy in charge of finding fraud in our government.

just days after Trump declared himself the "fertilization president" the entire team focused on Assisted Reproductive Technology (which includes treatments like IVF) was laid off at the CDC

Some very fine people
