that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Kudos to GOP Senator Thom Tillis for calling out Trump’s dangerous policy of surrendering to war criminal Putin. Now, he and other pro-Ukraine Republicans should start using their power as U.S. senators to restrain Trump as much as possible.

200 million dollars of waste.

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

He nails it.

This is absolutely disgusting!

This is how it’s done.

There’s something happening in this country.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

If you’re ever in public while high on ketamine, this DEA pamphlet suggests you might want want to wear sunglasses, even indoors. www.dea.gov/sites/defaul...

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

It really is pathetic that the President of the United States and the richest man in the world are doing a joint interview together on how they’re running the country.

Kind of strange that Trump digs coal or Farmers for Trump or Build the Wall or Drain the Swamp or the Caravans are Coming just isn’t a thing anymore I guess maybe it was all bullshit

Acosta: It’s hard to see somebody out-Spicer Sean Spicer or out-Huckabee Sarah Huckabee Sanders, but Karoline Leavitt—she’s making a run for it. Unless they’ve already done it on SNL, I have to think something like that is in the works, because the skit writes itself.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Ok that made me laugh

Bernie Sanders: "We're not only dealing with a move toward authoritarianism, we're dealing with what is new to America -- politicians have always lied, nothing new about that. But the level that we're seeing right now. The big lie, over and over again ... "

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

AOC calls JD Vance out for his hypocrisy, preaching about ‘free speech’ in Munich while Tom Homan threatens her for exercising her First Amendment rights thehill.com/homenews/hou...

It really is this simple.

Joy Behar on The View: "Egg prices are supposed to come down, not airplanes." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Food safety chief at the FDA quits saying Trump's mass layoffs make his job "fruitless" www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The crudeness of the boilerplate fake performance complaints in these mass firings has an unsettling echo of how the banks in the financial crisis couldn't begin to prove they owned the loans but got away with foreclosing on people's homes with forged or missing documents anyway

Ok @meidastouch.com we see you 🏆 👀

also can't help but notice that John Roberts, like far too many other MAGA men, now has the complexion of an Oompa-Loompa

“Absolutely heartbroken… I am a father, loving husband, and dedicated civil servant.” While Kevin O’Leary says “cut cut cut cut more” — as if 🇺🇸 is a business (it isn’t) — these are the people whose lives are being ruined by Musk/Trump to pave the runway for greedy tax cuts.

here's today's post: "Mexico has had it up to here with this ‘Gulf of America’ bullshit" — and Marco Rubio wants Germany to reopen their Nazi Bar. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Border czar Tom Homan went on TV Monday, bumbling and sweating like a madman to keep his feud going with AOC. AOC responded with this fire: “This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing.” More here:

Michael Steele: “ I’d just like to see somebody wake the hell up and get excited about the fact that your country is under assault! “

Trump has begun firing several hundred FAA employees. Guess who is visiting the FAA command center today to "suggest improvements"? Elon Musk, of course. The billionaire grift continues. https://apnews.com/article/doge-faa-air-traffic-firings-safety-67981aec33b6ee72cbad8dcee31f3437

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

67 fake bomb threats on Election Day 2024. Almost all of them targeting heavily Democratic cities — which had lower turnout than in 2020. Many of the threats were clearly traced to Russia. And the mainstream media and establishment have somehow COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.

Here’s the thing. Every one of these people in tears heard Trump on the stump before Nov. They knew he was cruel. But they were fine with it, thinking he’d only hurt the people they didn’t like. The problem with cruelty—It spreads. You don’t get to control it. Sooner or later, it comes for you too.

JD Vance and Pig Hogsbreath have separate messages while Trump just appears to say the last thing Elon whispered in his ear. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

i helped develop/run policy workforce capacity-building programs for the CDC when i was there—training early career scientists on how to do policy (and to do it better) the damage done here to public health cannot be quickly or easily reversed. it will be felt for many years & it will cost lives.

INCOMPETENCE OF NUCLEAR PROPORTIONS Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile. Now, they are rushing to rescind their terminations.

Mark Cuban shared his frustrations on Bluesky about the “broken” US healthcare system. His biggest proposed solution is to make medical school FREE for all students. Doing so would encourage many more people to become doctors, ultimately shortening patient wait times and improving access to care.
