Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

It’s almost as if the message is: You’re no longer in business with America. You’re now working for Donald Trump.

Wait wut????

Trump’s “America First” isn’t biblical; it’s a xenophobic death sentence wrapped in a cross. Slashing foreign aid, mocking desperate allies, and invoking Jesus to justify cruelty is not Christianity—it’s blasphemy in a red tie. Christ fed the poor; Trump starves them with smug indifference. 1/2

PUSSY RIOT protesting in NYC!! 😱🔥

Scraping the bottom of the petri dish...

"The Truth is, These are Not Very Bright Guys, and Things Got Out of Hand"

Pay-as-you-go isn't supposed to work like this.

All of the things are happening. Trump and Musk are gutting NOAA; firing forecasters and killing weather data while storms grow deadlier. This isn’t reform; it’s state-sanctioned stupidity. Next time a tornado hits without warning, blame the fascists who fired the scientists. 1/2

The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory. www.ft.com/content/8459...

Q: “How concerned are you about what’s happening to the U.S. Dollar?” Lutnick: “I am not.”

Trump’s ego war with China just shattered our supply of rare earths; now factories may shut down, killing jobs and spiking prices on everything from cars to phones. Missiles, drones, and medical devices? Screwed. This isn’t patriotism; it’s economic self-immolation for a fascist photo op. 1/2

Pending medical treatments include a rectal craniotomy

Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.

“Erik Prince wants to cut a deal to transport detainees from the US to El Salvador *** The proposal would “target ‘criminal illegal aliens’” and “attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison…as American territory.” 4/11/25 1/

Minority Report 2.0

DOGE is trying to claim the $500 million real estate assets of the U.S. Institute of Peace.

This is fascism in the flesh: a peaceful scholar grabbed off the street by masked agents and caged in a filthy Louisiana cell for co-writing a college op-ed. No charges. No due process. Just Trump using ICE as a political death squad to terrorize dissenters and silence Muslim voices. 1/2

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Marco Rubio has ensured his place in history for war crimes.

Idiocracy. Giving credit where it's due.

"Brexit’s backers sold the project as a magic bullet that would solve the problems caused by a globalizing economy — not unlike Mr. Trump’s claims that tariffs would be a boon... In neither case, experts said, does such a panacea exist." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/w...

Trump's approval rating on the economy is dropping. @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social joined @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social today on Bulwark on Sunday to explain why that gradual slide matters.

It sounds like Mossad is doing Netanyahu's dirty work in America as Canary Mission.

"What emerges is a more intimate picture of Öztürk and how a child development researcher charged with no crime ended up in a crowded cell in Louisiana." www.propublica.org/article/rume...

If Rubio's goal is protecting the US from alleged threats, there are very real threats posed by militias and Jan6'ers but he's taken no action against them, nor pushed back on fElon47's pardons. So which is it?

international students are a lynchpin of the finances of many universities - they pay full-freight tuition and are not eligible for most types of financial aid - its hard not to read this as a particularly cruel and callous part of the right's attempt to defund and destroy America's universities.

This sweet pup stole the hose... and just wants to give it back 😂🖤 🔊 📽️dogzig

Florida has issues with Medicare fraud, too. Their US Senator Scott

If they had anyone worth noting, their face would be plastered across state media. They don’t. This is human trafficking.
