Go Fuck Yourself you SCOTUS stealing piece of shit We’re in this mess because of you. 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Honestly impressive to have ~ 2.5 failed nominees a month and a half before you’re even constitutionally entitled to nominate anyone.

So tax the rich. Clean and simple. Find the funds from the rich. Why are Republicans so obsessed with taking away the benefits from the poor, while giving so many leeways and so much tax cuts to the super rich. It’s obscene.

I had a very busy day today. It was a busy but productive day. Ended the day with a new friend who I have a very nice dinner with. This quote captured my attention and I wanted to share it with you while I wish you good night. As always love and wish you all a restful night. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

I thought we were against helicopter parenting

The people of South Korea didn't wait, they showed up. Immediately.

He'll still ignore any evidence that interferes with what he wants to do.

Ron DeSanctimonious being floated for SecDef? To be fair, I guess Trump probably *has* run out of people he hasn’t insulted

So Trump attacked MeidasTouch in his motion to dismiss today and blamed us for losing his criminal trial. So, that happened. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Korea Expert here. I’ll explain what’s going on over there because the Orient can be confusing to Westerners. In Korea, there is a concept known as “the law.” (법) This is a set of rules which are enforced to encourage prosocial behavior and ensure stability which leaders aren’t allowed to break.

My goodness. We’re almost at 300,000 followers on Bluesky. I couldn’t be more grateful for this growing community. Your support gives me hope me every day. Serving on President Biden’s digital team in 2020 was the honor of my life. Let’s keep fighting for the values that brought us together. 💙💪

This is my gratitude, too.

TODAY’S EPISODE OF: WE F*CKING WARNED YOU Pittsburgh steelworkers who supported Trump aren’t happy that he’s opposing the US Steel-Nippon deal. “I am very frustrated with the news that came out last night…that was like a gut punch.” — United Steelworkers VP Jason Zugai

It sounds like Pete Hegseth really needs help. I hope Trump’s VA doesn’t slash his mental health benefits.

“…the United States "will deliver hundreds of thousands of additional artillery rounds, thousands of additional rockets, and other critical capabilities" to Ukraine between early December 2024 and mid-January 2025.” www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder...

FYI, that is the plan here, too.

#Florida sheriff nominated by Trump to run the DEA withdraws name because he had virtually no experience in the kinds of complex international investigations the agency handles www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/u...

🤦‍♀️ Republican voters are shocked by Trump lies and broken promises! Are you kidding me? 👇👇 This was all over the press in August! Their profound stupidity never ceases to amaze me!

So glad I left Florida.

"We cannot continue to participate in the social network feed of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists... X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the special ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies"

Good morning, everyone! Have you contacted your Senators about your objections to all these lunatic cabinet nominations yet? #callyoursenators

The American Experiment remains unrivaled! (And possibly unraveled.)

To recap, the guy nominated Ambassador to Israel does not recognize Palestine and the guy picked to lead the military gets drunk a lot and yells stuff like "Kill all Muslims". I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

When Trump takes office, we expect deportations to take place immediately Lawyers for Good Government is getting ready So attorneys can document human rights violations Provide legal services And help asylum seekers THIS IS HOW WE FIGHT nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

@mcuban.bsky.social plz run for Governor of Texas 🙏🏼

All of this. Every word of this.

didn’t see quite the same level of outrage about these pardons

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget

If you or someone you know is a federal employee please read this substack for great pointers on what to do if your job gets targeted by the Trump Clownshow Cabinet! open.substack.com/pub/keithedw...

Vivek is literally an unelected federal bureaucrat.

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy. It’s not rocket science.

If you’re upset about President Biden pardoning his son Hunter, wait until I tell you about the time Trump pardoned his son in law’s hooker hiring daddy and made him ambassador to France.

"Like" this post just because.

Sara Netanyahu joined President-elect Trump for dinner this evening in Florida. Mrs. Netanyahu is staying in Miami for 20 days as her husband testifies in his ongoing corruption case. The Netanyahu’s son has been living in Miami since 2023.

We want to emphasize this. The bill passed in December, 2020. The Republicans in the Senate blocked it. For a 330 million size population, a handful of barely 50 people prevented it. Pressure him for it. He was an antidrug zealot for years. If he can absolve his son for it, he can absolve everyone.

FACT: Donald Trump agreed to the release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners on February 29, 2020.

Pray on it…

In case you haven’t read the President’s statement, please do so now. Everything he has to say is entirely true, as usual. His communications skills may have been impaired during the election, but his judgment is completely intact.

Someone on Marsha’s team really needs to show her how to use Google

I can’t imagine there is a single person whining right now who would not have done the same thing for their son—especially given that his or her son would have been about to be at the mercy of the new Trump DOJ. Give me a break with the melodramatics.

Good call. Just changed the use of "loyalist" in an essay publishing in the morning dealing with henchman Kash Patel.

He’s freeing all the violent criminals. I know these guys. I’ve filmed them for years. The rule of law is dead. It’s going to be like Clockwork Orange out there. Let’s just see how long it takes for the rest of America to fight back.

"Way to go, Joe!" Says Rep Jasmine Crockett about the pardon of Hunter Biden. "We have a 34 count convicted felon that's about to walk into the WH. So for anyone who wants to clutch their pearls now, I would say take a look in the mirror."
