Sure, why not? Let's make Satan the next Pope.

Fake news? No. Search "Federal immigration agents raid home, but suspects don't live there". You'll find the story on a local Oklahoma City TV station website. The 5-minute story will show that we are living in a dictatorship.

Calling it an extension of a military base, critics say, skirts federal law: The Posse Comitatus Act. Wait till the same type of action makes liberal areas of California part of an army base. Then suddenly we're all trespassers and subject to arrest and detainment. abcnews.go.com/Politics/sto...

Our puerile president pulls on his pull-ups and tries to sound like a really smart 5th grader. (An American 5th grader... a European 3rd grader.)

We have not lost the will to fight. Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drum, there is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!

We fart in Donald Trump's general direction. PLPLPLPLPL!

Jesus is a victim of identity theft by the white christian nationalists. Whoever MTG and her ilk serve, it's not Jesus.

“That’s the life I want everybody to be able to live, and I think we can deliver that."

Who did this? 😂

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.

The FBI is arresting judges. We just blew through Constitutional Crisis and into fascism.

Rick Scott urges people not to buy the Trump Bible and most MAGA merch.

Jake Tapper: "One 60 Minutes source tells me, 'The lawsuit was baseless. Bill Owens wouldn't apologize. He wouldn't bend. He fought for the broadcast and for independent journalism and that cost him his job. It's shameful.'"

The Chicago GOP amplified a “protest” of Senator Chris Van Hollen so I dropped by out of curiosity and there were literally two people there lmao

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

On our first date, my wife and I came to a bookstore. I said, "Can we stop in here a minute?" She says my love of books is one of the reasons she married me. We still love books today. I have spurned Amazon and now buy my books from Copperfield's Books (copperfieldsbooks.com).

Greatest kakistocracy in history! Nero fiddling while Rome burned is number two now.

Only one of these men has a criminal conviction—and his name isn’t Kilmar Garcia!

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

A Chicago Bulls hoodie makes Kilmar Garcia a gang member the same way a shiny gold cross makes Karoline Leavitt a Christian.

Counterterrorism Czar: Opposing Trump’s policies is aiding and abetting terrorists — a felony. Your reminder that Hitler’s first concentration camp, Dachau, was built to imprison leaders of political, social, and cultural movements who opposed the Nazis.

LINCOLN: “Overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.” REPUBLICANS: “Cool, let’s elect him President instead.”

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm. "Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Love. This. Right. Here. ❤️✨

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

Well, he's already defied the Constitution multiple times, so why not? www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote
