“Shipping ports are empty across the United States. Nothing is coming in. Businesses have cancelled the remainder of their 2025 orders.” (h/t FreightWaves)

@bsky.app should consider putting this skeet and this skeet only behind a paywall.

I respect farming. But it seems farmers are some of the biggest welfare queens out there? You need stimulus to buy your new pickup?

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

If you have to ask if we are in a constitutional crisis then we are in a constitutional crisis.

If a sheriffs deputy cannot keep their weapons safe…

The permission structure for lawlessness is 1000x more serious than inciting an insurrection. Ignoring the courts allows any MAGA to do the same. More violence will come of this.

Why do all these guys look like they still have half their baby teeth and on their second marriage?

Here's Trump saying to Bukele that "homegrown criminals are next" and talking about how El Salvador will need to build "about five more places."

There are a lot of things JD SHOULD be embarrassed about. Fumbling the trophy in front of all the cool football players is the thing he will continue to replay in his mind.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

HE IS PROMISING TO SEND AMERICANS TO FOREIGN DEATH CAMPS. This is it. This is where America ends.

I’d like to see some research on Facebook and ICE agent recruitment.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

nightmare rotation

By ending TPS for thousands of Afghans, the Trump administration abandons allies who risked their lives for U.S. missions. This move destabilizes families, shatters American credibility, and weaponizes immigration policy to serve ideology over human obligation.

The thing about Pete Hegseth is that he's just that infantry officer who thinks he's hot shit despite never going to Ranger, airborne, or air assault school. He likes to bash everyone else but never did a single thing to distinguish himself and he has no idea how much the support units did for him.

Kurt Vonnegut man

Am I the only one reading White House tweets in Bane’s voice in my head?

He misses his couch at home. Five Star hotel beds are getting to him

All these ICE agents are so doughy

I wrote about this a bit in my last book but it really shakes me that a defining feature of this catastrophic era is that we just keep going to work. We work through pandemics, we work through natural disasters, we work through economic calamity, we work through coups, we work, we work, we work.

floating through all this like a hungry ghost, a man who haunts his own life

It’s an honor to get shot by Kristi “Muzzle Awareness” Noem.

I can’t believe the guy who attacked the Capitol would do this.

I'm not sure which video to post--the fifteen paramedics in their last moments as one of them prays amid gunfire, the journalist being burned alive, the man holding a headless toddler, the people blown into the air, or the young man quietly rocking the shrouded body of a child. It's a genocide.

Tired: disappearing student debt Wired: disappearing students

Trump backed Israel mass murdered first responders. IDF ambushed multiple ambulances, a fire truck and their personnel (15+), executing them on-site, burying the bodies along with the vehicles and lied about it while denying safe passage to search for the missing first responders.

Fuckers were so mad about the possibility of student loan repayment that they tanked the economy.

A lot of white supremacy in how Trumpists responded to COVID. A lot of white supremacy in how Trumpists are responding to tariffs. It’s ok if black people are *more* affected.

Buy America 🇷🇺
