If you voted for Trump you are an imbecile.

Republicans say they’re targeting just criminals and gang members. Bullsh*t. They’re targeting anyone who “looks illegal”. And it will only get worse. They need to make their 3,000 a day quota no matter what. #MAGAKidnappers

What the hell is happening to this country?

Twenty years ago the Republican party stood for huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east, but then Donald Trump totally remade the party and realigned American poltiics, and now the Republica party stands for...huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east.

"Vance Boelter, the man accused of killing Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, voted in the March 2024 Republican presidential primary, belying online disinformation that has sought to paint Boelter as a leftist with ties to Gov. Tim Walz." minnesotareformer.com/2025/06/17/v...

Colorado's KNUS-AM played a key role in boosting unsupported claims that the 2020 election was rigged by Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems. KNUS' owner, Salem Radio, is now offering an apology and retraction.

Phang: You know where these things are happening? These ICE raids are happening at Home Depots, on farms and in fields, at construction sites. These immigration raids are happening in places where people are fucking working.

It's pretty notable that mainstream, establishment discourse never ever ever considers giving liberal politicians credit for crime reductions. It's almost axiomatic that if crime goes down under a center-left leader it's either unremarked upon, or must be driven by something else.

when 4-5M people march peacefully against the current regime it's the story of the year. NYT cannot bring itself to focus on that reality.

Donald Trump is such an obvious moronic grifting asshole who looks like someone dipped their ball bag in bowl of Cheetos. It will never make sense to me how anyone could like him, let alone vote for him for President. And they want him to give him total absolute control.

Trump's parade was like the Trump university of Trump steaks.

This man is a bonafide idiot.

Being uninvited from the White House caused Rand Paul to lose a lot of the respect he had for Donald Trump that Trump’s two impeachments, insurrection, four criminal indictments, criminal conviction, and sexual abuse damages verdict did not cause him to lose. Got it.

Why can’t half of adult Americans see this?
