My Vietnam Navy Veteran sends a double finger salute to to the fucking, fat, felon, draft dodging, orange TACO POS through me. He wasn't a sucker or loser. 🖕 🖕

good GOOD (this whole thread is stunning)

Methinks Elon is one ketamine bender away from tweeting how Trump stole the 2024 election.

THE TRAIN TO LAX: it’s no longer a joke! Yesterday @metrolosangeles.bsky.social celebrated the opening of the new LAX Metro Transit Center! Congratulations to Los Angeles! (And a shoutout to LA spirit daddy Huell Howser who would have LOVED this news …) #latransit #metrolosangeles

It was GOLD and so obvious. Of course it flew right over his orange head.

Before the darkness falls and consumes us all with the coronation of a raging, criminal madman. Remember, the kindness, the decency, the days of joy and hope, and the smiles and eyes bright without dread and fear. #poetry #poets

Bought a slice of wilderness paradise last weekend up the Gunflint Trail. I can’t wait to get started building an oasis from all the chaos up here!

Chabria: ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means?

Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮

Okay, that’s enough internet for today.

It's a fantastic book - download it - buy it - or just borrow it and read it. The Dust Bowl Triolgy are worth the effort.

Ok I am completely broken by this. The Hague and UN need to see this. #Texas

We are in literal 'mad king' territory. The president is in obvious, undeniable cognitive decline. He's been obsessed with tariffs since the 1980s, when the big scare was the Japanese economic powerhouse. I don't think one person is secretly controlling him, I think everyone around him is trying to.

🤣🦅🤣

This whole clip is truly unbelievably great. I am genuinely astounded by how good this is.

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Given all that’s going on in the world, getting up the north shore of Lake Superior and the Gunflint Trail over the weekend with Winnie and Willie for a few days has helped my mental state more than anything these past few months. I’m pretty sure I just might disappear into the woods up there soon:)

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

🔥

I don’t even think I’m exaggerating to say that if a Democratic president tanked the stock market, bragged about doing it intentionally, and then went golfing for the weekend, a mob would lynch them on the golf course.

Impeach Trump.

Who did this?

This is his theory. Just unreal. If only it were 1913.

These aren't tariffs. They are a horse's head in the bed of (almost) every world government and business leader.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

Nancy stepped aside when her time came. Joe stepped aside but made the decision too late in the game. But it seems that Schumer is stubbornly going to hang on no matter what, and what the base wants doesn’t seem to matter a whole lot.

The sartorial choices indicate that we can fully expect the next election to be decided in a monster truck contest.

It’s well known that I was on The Apprentice. We were all covered by NDAs at the time, but mine has now expired. And do I ever have some tea to spill. I’ll post it later today after consulting once again with my attorneys.

Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone? Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.

Icymi, this is dynamite:
