The way Bukele was treated in the oval vs. Zelenskyy is all you need to know.

I try to teach my kids that no one is inherently “bad” or “good,” that we all make choices and are capable of doing good things and bad things. That said, Stephen Miller is evil. Straight-up evil.

anyway i guess a country that has successfully gotten people back from the moon can't get them back from central america

Yesterday’s visit to Billy Earl Dade Middle School reminded me why I fight so hard. These kids deserve the world—and I’ll keep showing up to make sure they get it.

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

If the Supreme Court decides that the government can "erroneously" disappear you off the street to a foreign torture prison, and that federal courts have no power to do anything about it, that is, in a meaningful way, Pretty Much It www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

The goods news is that Peter Navarro has literally never been right about a single thing ever in his lifetime.

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Quite a bit of officiating to bail Auburn out of bad basketball here.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Which team are you on? Vim with tons of plugins or emacs, or IDE?

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford on her victory, and to the people of Wisconsin for electing a judge who believes in the rule of law and protecting our freedoms.

No one voted for Elon Musk to have unlimited power. They voted for lower costs. So yes, we need to fight back against the chaos. But Democrats also need to lay out a clear vision for the new American Dream. And how we’re going to build it.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Everyone is blaming Waltz, but why did no one—not even the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard—say that they should not be discussing classified information on Signal.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Live shot of literally all of America.

An entire administration of 12-year-old boys trying to act tough. Read the statement below and then look at this dweeb.

Since the story on the @DeptofDefense's website on Jackie Robinson has been deleted, here are the details of his service in the United States military. In 1942, Robinson was drafted and reported to Fort Riley, Kansas. By early 1943, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant before joining the

“Polestar wants to deliver the final blow. … Polestar is offering anyone who owns or leases a Tesla $5,000 off a lease on a brand new Polestar 3. Combined with their latest $15,000 Polestar Clean Vehicle Incentive, any Tesla driver can buy a Polestar 3 for a whopping $20,000 off.”

If we are deporting all men who have extremist tattoos without hearings, this dude would be in El Salvador by now.

www.nytimes.com/2025/03/17/c... English vocabulary is insufficient to express how stupid this is.

You may not recognize it at first, but life in this country will never be the same if people stop coming from abroad because they are not guaranteed protection under the law. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/u...

I think that anyone who unironically uses terms like “The Laptop Class” is kind of a self-important moron

Get in loser, we're tanking the economy
