MAGA TikTok is desperately trying to keep their Kool-Aid drinkers from panicking as Trump crashes the economy.

I’m definitely believing those allegations that someone else took the test to get Trump into Wharton. #TariffBloodbath

Most Accurate Headline of the Day 🏆 www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

After Republican indignation about Democrats skipping their sham Ad Hoc Committee to Avoid Helping Desperate DDD Families, Dem Leader De Los Santos breaks it down for them: Over $3.6 billion and 70+ supplemental appropriations under GOP Gov. Ducey. youtu.be/0hIKDFT-nRY

Rep. Matt Gress and his fellow Republican lawmakers desperately wanted to change the subject away from their refusal to help desperate parental caregivers of disabled kids. Their stunt failed. Stop playing politics and gotcha and help us help these families. #AZleg www.azcentral.com/story/opinio...

Trump-induced bloodbath.

This is murder. LIHEAP literally keeps low-income elderly from freezing to death in cold places and dying from lack of air conditioning here in Arizona.

Shawn Cutting’s 6-year-old son with autism has started to thrive under AZ’s paid family caregivers program. In 29 days his progress will halt if GOP leaders don’t let us take action to keep this vital program funded. youtu.be/77LAmWJjVH4

Elon’s Downfall

Sad to see you go, Val Kilmer.

You know that scene in Saving Private Ryan where Tom Hanks and his squad are pinned down on Omaha Beach and somebody brings up a Bangalore torpedo and blows a hole in the seawall? With Wisconsin and @booker.senate.gov that’s how I feel right now. Let’s get in the fight!

Yes! Go shit in your hat, Elon Musk. Thank you Wisconsin!

“When Quantá applies for a job, she doesn’t even get an interview. But when Marie applies, she does.” Rep. Quantá Marie Crews checkmates MAGA Republican Matt Gress’s arguments for punishing state colleges if they embrace diversity, equity and inclusion. #DEI www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwb5...

This is why due fucking process is thing in this country, you incompetent clowns.

When a high pressure zone of privilege mixes with a polar vortex of persecution complex then runs into a heavy downpour of delusions of grandeur it forms the conspiracy hurricane known as Justine Wadsack.

Just got this on Signal. Could be spam, could be Stephen Miller accidentally adding me to a top-secret White House group chat. What to do, what to do?

“People need to know this is not a budgeting issue. It is a life-or-death situation for these families.” — Assistant Democratic Leader Nancy Gutierrez on Republicans holding back funding for developmentally disabled kids. azluminaria.org/2025/03/27/d...

“This was an act of disrespect and contempt for Indigenous nations that all of us felt very personally…First they tried to delete the history of the Navajo Code Talkers, Ira Hayes, and Lori Piestewa from their website. Now this.” — Rep. Mae Peshlakai. lastrealindians.com/news/2025/3/...

Arkansas-Texas Tech, instant classic. Crazy good game. #Sweet16

Wherein a potty-mouthed post by yours truly seems to have inspired a helpful consumer protection story. Thank you @phoenixnewtimes.com! Arizona doesn’t have toll roads. No one told these scammers www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/arizona...

#SignalGate Follow the stupidity and incompetence. It goes all the way to the top.

DNI Gabbard testified she maintains her "First Amendment rights" to post comments through personal accounts regarding views that might be different from her official work positions. Yet law firms & lawyers (incl me) are being targeted by Administration for excercising their 1st Amendment rights. 🤦‍♂️

What in the name of Jonah Ryan is this shit?

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Complete incompetence.

You couldn’t get hit harder by a nicer guy. #RIP

It was recently reported that Arizonans have lost more than $145 million last year to scams and fraud, a staggering 20% increase.

"Stop the politics and political games around a life-saving critical program for people with disabilities!” — House Dem Leader calls out former Gov. Ducey budget director Rep. Matt Gress over a Sept. request to move money within the DCS budget to cover some unanticipated costs. youtu.be/qtaDH6mpbwg

It’s time for Republican members of Congress to “stand up for the people they represent and defend their role in the American system of government” before Trump takes that away too. youtu.be/eEnpPkEJAYM

It’s always the ones you most suspect.

Culture war censors at Secretary Pete Hegseth's DoD are purging books and learning materials from military-run schools. Military families deserve best-in-class education access and the First Amendment rights they defend for us all.

PRESS RELEASE: House Democratic Caucus Statement on Passing of Congressman Raúl Grijalva #azleg

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Assistant House Democratic Leader Nancy Gutierrez, a public school teacher, rallied with teachers today calling for a clean version of Prop123 to raise educator pay, guardrails for the ESA voucher scam, and a vote on her bill to provide free lunches to all students who qualify. youtu.be/XNVA2o47rfs

Trump’s rapid unscheduled disassembly of your 401k.

Washington Post under Trump: "151,000 jobs is solid" Washington Post under Biden: "194,000 jobs is another weak month"

Evil dumbasses are the worst kind of dumbasses.

Joe Biden handed this dumbass a strong and growing economy. Trump has run us into a ditch.

Can’t wait to hear Trump’s new policies on drinking fountains and lunch counters. #SOTU

“Decorum in the House!” from the party that pardoned their buddies who beat cops, shit on the floor, wiped with the curtains and dragged a Confederate flag through the halls of Congress. #SOTU

MAGA went from blaming President Biden for high egg prices/grocery prices and threatening to impeach him to the MAGA agriculture secretary now telling people to buy chickens and put them in their backyards instead of just lowering prices as promised. The stupid never ends.
