Is this just kind of like repeat it until you believe it yourself? Your boss pardoned everyone who assaulted law enforcement on January 6th. Ass!!!

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

ICE is evil

Breaking news: The sell-off erased $153bn from Tesla’s value, the biggest one-day drop in the electric-car company’s market capitalisation on record, and comes as Donald Trump threatens he will terminate US government contracts with Musk’s companies. www.ft.com/content/a14f...

i know no one cares about hypocrisy or shamelessness or anything anymore but these people really used to tell us they were scared of an armed govt being turned against americans, they made an entire career out of it

This rules for a lot of reasons, but especially because it dispels the myths that A.) old games were never political and B.) games like this are just stories, they aren't "about" anything. Should serve as a reminder to anyone writing about games why we should be close reading 'em.

It’s called taxing the rich, buddy.

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

Shocking!

Happy Pride 🤦‍♂️

New data from North Carolina indicates that a whopping 87% of new vouchers in 24-25 went to kids who had never been in public school simbli.eboardsolutions.com/Meetings/Att... (cc: @jenjennings.bsky.social @sosarizona.org @jeffbinnc.bsky.social @pfpsorg.bsky.social)

“I didn’t vote for *this*!” I mean okay but you voted for some other heinous shit he promised so that doesn’t really change my opinion of you

This explains why a Fox News viewer I spoke to over the weekend thinks that Joe Biden is the most corrupt President ever, and doesn’t know a single thing about Trump’s blatantly corrupt activities around crypto, pardons, etc.

Trump uses massive amounts of federal resource to visit his golf clubs. Why won’t House Republicans cut these trips instead of Medicaid?

Sarah Huckabee Sanders was once politely asked to leave a restaurant and it generated 100x as much handwringing from the media as this will

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

I’d love to see you at this event tonight! secure.everyaction.com/-qY77kFFDUOV...

Because free speech.

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.

@jamellebouie.net I know you're not Google, but do you have any book recommendations about Gabriel's Rebellion? I appreciate it!

The GOP’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is Robin Hood in reverse: it takes from the poor to give to the rich.SNAP (used to be Food Stamps…which Tabby and I used back in 1972) is gone. Medicare is going.

The country with the most sophisticated intelligence capabilities in the world, and the president is holding up "a months-old blog post" from an obscure, conspiracy-mongering site "featuring a photo from the Democratic Republic of Congo" while making allegations against South Africa to its president

RIEDL, on the House Budget: “.. [It] will cost more than the 2017 tax cuts, the pandemic CARES Act, Biden's stimulus, and the Inflation Reduction Act combined.” @yahoofinance.com 🇺🇸

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

🚨🏥 A Republican-backed US House bill could block Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood in New Hampshire, threatening health care access for thousands who rely on Medicaid for basic services. GOP leaders hope to pass the bill through the Senate by Memorial Day. 🔗 in thread! #NHPolitics

This is, and always has been, the entire ballgame for Republicans: steal from poor and working people so billionaires can pay less in taxes. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/u...

Feeding the children is far more important than any stupid parade!!!

Just to be clear, that’s not who uses Medicaid. It’s a false stereotype that dates back at least to the 1970s and is steeped in racial animus.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc. And get the money out

You get two dolls and/or five pencils. Trump gets a $45 million military parade to make himself feel like America’s most special boy.

We spend $800 billion a year on our military yet our greatest enemy lives in the White House and we fly him to his own golf course for play dates on the weekend. We also fly him abroad to facilitate his emoluments violations while we fly others to concentration camps. #RemoveTrump

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.

NEW: U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi sold between $1 million and $5 million worth of Trump Media stock the same day Trump unveiled new tariffs that caused the stock market to plummet, according to records obtained by ProPublica. By @robert-faturechi.bsky.social and @bxroberts.org

Yeah, that tracks. @nbcnews.com

Good lord. 🤡 @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

NPR has identified three Trump administration officials with close ties to antisemitic extremists, including a prominent Holocaust denier.

The Trump Organization has entered into real estate deals in all three countries Trump plans to visit this week wapo.st/3F11lnU

The offer, which comes on the eve of Trump's visit to the Middle East, raises major ethical and legal questions.

the same people who were pissed video game journalists accepted a free bagel at a press event ten years ago are now totally chill with the President accepting a 747 from Qatar makes you think!
