Here's a tariff. Here's a deportation. Here's a Christian nationalist order. Here's the defunding of schools and libraries and museums and medical research. Here's higher prices on every good. Here's a cut to gut childcare. Here's soaring rents and stagnant wages. Are we great yet?

Remember when the economy was booming, stocks were soaring, we weren’t in a trade war with China, we didn’t have a day drunk for a Sec Def, a couch fucking Cabbage Patch doll for a VP or an evil, incurious idiot for a president & we still funded cancer research? Yeah, that was like three months ago.

It's up to us, guys.

Let’s be real: the cost of living is out of control. People are living paycheck to paycheck. Rent is sky high. And folks are choosing between medication and meals—just trying to survive. Meanwhile, billionaires aren’t paying taxes and are getting richer by the day.

Bill Owens, executive producer of “60 Minutes”, resigns: “I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it, to make independent decisions based on what was right for ‘60 Minutes’, right for the audience.” We’re falling into fascism. — Deeper and deeper.

If we are going to be disappearing people, can this annoyingly simple-minded goblin be next?

Treated my 5-year-old to lunch at the local crepery today. It's run by Ethiopians, but they make really delicious, French-style crepes. I got avocado, tomato, and cheese. This is the beautiful America they are trying to destroy.

If Pete Hegseth were a real man: a man of dignity, strength, and honesty, he would admit he is not qualified for this position and never belonged here in the first place. Since he is none of those things, he will willingly place the courageous members of our Military and our nation in harm's way.

Love Tim Walz.

Hey you know how people made the Tesla brand radioactively toxic and crashed its entire corporate structure? You can do that with authoritarian brutality and with neoliberal oppression and exploitation. You chase these motherfuckers from society until all that’s left is something real and better.

BREAKING: White House says that those who leaked the story about Pete Hegseth giving war plans to his family on Signal might be prosecuted… So apparently, ‘the whistleblowing’ is the crime, not the crime itself?!

This should be the top story in Axios’s morning read. But it isn’t. It’s the FIFTH top story. @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/23/t...

I don’t know about you, but every time I see the administration come out with the statement, I know it’s a lie. Every damn time.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Go to hell

Who else AGREES with Pedro?! 🤚

The Dow Jones is on pace for its worst April since 1932. Are we feeling great yet?

NBC has confirmed what we have been saying for weeks. Hegseth clearly copied classified strike schedules from a secure device to his personal phones. This alone would get a line service member thrown in prison. But when it’s SecDef we are supposed to ignore it.

WHO ELSE AGREES WITH BARBRA?! 🤚
