We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

It’s moments like these when we might consider it relevant that the current FBI director who might be charged with investigating this crime appeared eight times on the podcast of Stew Peters, a Christian Nationalist who recently called for a “final solution” to America’s “Jewish problem.”

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

China really upping their trolling game since the tariffs.

Cuddling a water sausage.

Tired of pretending that MS-13 is this big scary monster that demands invoking George Washington era laws when it's white nationalists shooting up churches and grocery stores.

lololol fuck these terroristic know-nothing monkeys

I just got back from a couple days in Montreal and the city is wonderful but it's a little weird being around unarmed citizens with healthcare who understand three syllable words.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services. This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage. Keep up the fight.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Keep pushing back. Every win matters. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

One tiny pinhead is terrorizing the entire global economy and every individual who relies on it. When this is over, however that happens, that should never happen again. And the U.S., if it still exists, must make restitution to our allies. And kill Citizens United and anything resembling it 4-ever

They should let a socialist state led by communists fall on its own one time just so we can have proof it happens naturally

Deporting people means a judge signs a final deportation order, and the person is returned to their own country. What we are doing is kidnapping a person off the street and paying for them to be held indefinitely in concentration camps outside US courts' jurisdiction. 100% deliberately extralegal.

Donnie “Pump and Dump” Trump.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

With plans to set it on fire again in the near future and keep some very hot embers burning in the meantime 😡
