Anyone who has worked somewhere with a walk-in fridge knows about this coping method.

Putin is an inhuman piece of shit. And, disgustingly, the Russian Orthodox Church, allegedly a Christian denomination, supports his actions in Ukraine.

Wishing a Happy Passover to all my family and friends who celebrate!

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history. (And yet, in true Orwellian fashion, they claim to be champions of free speech.)

So the man who is actively dismantling our democratic institutions, the man who is currently saying fuck due process, snatching innocent people off our streets, and dumping them into foreign gulags, that man is “charming” in private? Do I have that right @billmaher?

Miss Rachel is on the right side of history.

Imagine that. Is there any doubt in anyone’s mind they were tipped off? They are laughing at us all. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Crockett: "My Republican colleagues are here using today to continue pushing this false narrative of sanctuary cities harboring criminals, yet right here in DC we have a 34 count felon being harbored in the White House."

We found the voter fraud!!!!!

IMO A couple of days ago it got leaked that trump was going to pause tariffs. WH claimed it was fake news. This allowed the rich time to scoop up stock cheap. Today, trump does put that 90 day pause out. The market rebounds giving the rich a stock boost. This is market manipulation.

A refresher on Donald Trump’s Rules for Governing: Step 1: Create crisis Step 2: Blame Democrats Step 3: Rant on Truth Social Step 4: Profit from crisis Step 5: Claim to resolve crisis Step 6: Declare victory Step 7: Golf Step 8: Repeat

Trump: “I won’t back down on tariffs!” Trump: “I’m backing down on tariffs for 90 days except for China.” Trump next week: “I’m backing down on tariffs on China.” Trump in 90 Days: “I’m lifting all tariffs. I never liked tariffs! Fake news. Oh, yeah, I’m implementing the Insurrection Act!”

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

So sick of that douchebag Felon

O.K., at first I thought this was a joke or from the Onion. But I checked it out and, as far as I can tell, he really did say it. Which makes him dumber than a bag of Doritos. And that’s probably an insult to Doritos. If anyone finds out differently, let me know.

Idaho Falls yesterday. Unfortunately, all this guy and every other MAGA gun carrying fascist needs is the o.k. from their fuhrer Trump and his fascist A.G. to start shooting and they will. Let’s all be as careful as we can out there, folks.

Hahahaha! Love this! @maddow.msnbc.com

This is Salt Lake City, Utah. Amazing turnout for #HandsOff rally in a deep red state.

Proud to be among the thousands of New Yorkers & hundreds of thousands in all 50 states who took to the streets today to tell Trump, Musk, and all the fascists & oligarchs gutting our government, destroying our fragile democracy, and taking away our freedoms & futures: #HANDSOFF!

What an amazing day. I’m in awe of the photos and videos I’m seeing from across the country—and even abroad! From Utah to Iowa to Minnesota to New Mexico to Florida, folks showed up in huge numbers to send a message to Trump & Musk: #HandsOff our futures!

Our latest: America ain’t dead yet We’re down but we’re sure as shit not out
