The Smart People said "Abolish ICE" was too radical. Then ICE kidnapped students, sent innocent people to a mega prison, broke into a car to take a mom from her daughter, and tried questioning elementary kids while lying that they had parents permission. Ask yourself: which part is more "radical"?

One more... "Let me be clear."

The court was packed by Republicans for a moment like this.

CEOs upset about Trump’s tariffs sound like mob bosses shouting “I thought we had a deal!” at the Joker.

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Keep sharing this around.

We went pretty quickly from “we will fix it on day 1” to “we will fix it by four years from now.”

Adding one: “Prove me wrong.”

Put a tariff on golf equipment, see how long this bullshit lasts.

There’s a lot of wrong here, but I’d also like to point out that’s not what “cognitive dissonance” means.

Everybody should read “Commander-In-Cheat” by @reillyrick.bsky.social Just for shit like this 👇🏻

Wow that’s a lot of paid protestors. Maybe we shouldn’t listen to any fucking idiot who says shit like that about anything ever again?

‼️

Social media phrases that really need to be retired forever: "Explain it to me like I am 5 years old." "That's it. That's the tweet." "I was today years old when I learned…” “BREAKING: …”

"...it's because of the absolute dysfunction of this national security council as demonstrated by what just happened with Laura Loomer" is quite the fucking sentence.

So we’re 75 days into trumps second term, people are protesting everywhere. Markets have had two days of absolutely apocalyptic losses. There are grad students being disappeared and a man with an autism awareness tattoo was sent to a super scary prison in El Salvador. They’ve cut cancer research..

The Nazi sense of humor.

Just for you, Chicago. #BeHereForIt

the arc of the universe is long, but it bends towards "it's one banana, michael. would could it cost, $10?"

Every single paper in the U.S. would be excoriating a Dem President who was golfing while the stock market melted down. We all know this. The editorial boards would be screeching, state tv ie Fox would be playing NONSTOP clips, etc. etc. It's worth remembering.

We may win the midterms after all…

He had traffic violations so we denied him due process and sent him to die in a gulag in El Salvador is maybe not a winning political message but Republicans are welcome to try it, let’s see how it goes.

Trump is causing more economic chaos than Covid did. #TrumpTariffs

How quickly these complicit Republicans went from “lower prices on Day One” to “He knew he’d crash the market, give him time”

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

I know crashing the economy on purpose seems harsh, but it’ll all be worth it when the seventh Little Mermaid is white

So good. 🤡 @brendanvduke.bsky.social

The Economist: “Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era.” #TrumpTariffs

I honestly didn’t know someone could break so many things in so many directions all at once

Is there a more popular, modern name for groceries that we don't know about?

Do…do Republicans not know what due process is?

Friendly reminder: Due process is how we can be sure the people Miller and his henchmen are removing are legally subject to removal in the first place.

Strom Thurmond and Elon both taking an L on the same day is a hell of a white supremacy bankshot

Real whiplash watching the Trump message go from “we’ll fix everything on day one” to “suck it up buttercup, this is gonna hurt.”

What the Trump admin is saying is that they sent an innocent man to a foreign prison *and have no intention to try to get him back*. No decent person can support this.

HEY ZELENSKY !! THIS IS A SUIT THAT RESPECTS THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT!!! Get your shit together.

Sorry, liberals, the United States is not an oligarchic democracy, it’s an oligarchic republic.

EXACTLY RIGHT

I can’t believe this is real! It’s like the worst caricature of how the right says Soros does politics.

The **vast** majority of all this money comes from conservatives. Don't let people get away with the "George Soros controls everything" crap.

Even if this talking point weren’t fash nonsense used as a pretext for authoritarian population control, the most effective solution would be to make a world where people could thrive and all were cared for and the wealthy who benefited most from society paid their fair share for that benefit.

I bought Twitter for $44,000,000,000 and sold it back to myself for $33,000,000,000. I have 43 kids and no friends. Everything I make explodes

The whole point of due process is TO SEE IF YOU’VE VIOLATED THE LAW

Just for context the government he runs posted a celebratory tweet of a woman crying because she's being deported.
