It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

Just so we’re clear what just happened: Republicans tore apart their funding agreement with Democrats after Elon Musk told them to. They created a new bill that defunded child cancer research. And then they failed to pass that bill too.

We need a whole party of THIS. #letsgo

Just insane that the left treated the tech industry with increasing hostility just because they undermined organized labor, flouted the regulatory state, and bragged that they were going to get rid of everybody's jobs for a decade straight.

The jealousy is off the charts in the bad place about this news. GO RIVIAN!

When I was a child, I learned that the Constitution didn’t apply to people like us. I said the Pledge of Allegiance from inside a barbed wire camp, the words “with liberty and justice for all” wholly meaningless. But I did not give up on America. I’ve spent my life fighting for its ideals.

I feel like this should be getting a LOT more attention. 4 million salaried workers will be denied OT pay. www.fastcompany.com/91230653/ove...

Thought by now we would have spotted a trial balloon or two in which Teamster President Sean O'Brien was at least considered for some Department of Labor sinecure in the new administration. You know, a little something-something for keeping his union politically neutral. Nah. He did it for bupkis.

our ancestors accomplished more, with less, against worse. stay locked in.

Republicans exploit the loopholes. Democrats complain about the norms. We need to be playing a different game. youtu.be/HNcmo-K5Xsg

Do you think Nancy Mace and her MAGA Republican enablers in Congress realize the bathrooms they are all using on their flights back to Washington DC this week are unisex?

So did all these news orgs just schedule these pieces for *after* the election or what

Wow she really hates this country. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/18/u...

Jarvis: His generals called him fascist. Joe Scarborough called him fascist, and now the fascist is in charge and it is journalism's job to cover it that way, not to back off and say okay, well that's it, we lost. Let the fascism happen. No

BREAKING: A Wyoming judge has ruled that the state's total abortion ban and medication abortion ban, which she had already blocked temporarily, are unconstitutional. Abortion will remain legal for now, but this is almost certain to be appealed to the WY Supreme Court.

Republicans want to cut $30 billion from SNAP, because nothing says “save the children” like starving them.

It’s wild that you could say America chose a rapist over a highly-qualified woman and people wouldn’t even know which election you were talking about.

Why do I have the feeling that the Dems have nothing planned to mitigate any of this before Jan 3/20? Am I the only one?

This place is like being able to breathe clean air again after being trapped in the smoking section on a 6 month flight. #bluefuckingskyitis

Deus vult’ began as a rallying cry for the Crusades. More recently, it’s been adopted by the far right. And we’re not even supposed to wonder/ask why it’s tattooed on the arm of the next defense secretary?

Welcome to Trump 2.0. It’s gonna get way worse.

Ok so we’re all here…what’s the plan?
