And stay out!

"You voted for the guy because he was anti-immigration. Now he's going to let immigrants take the high-paying jobs but throw the fruit pickers out. His boss told you to go F your own face, then scolded you the next day, saying you should be nicer. What am I missing here?"

Definitely not him!

They should arrest him.

🚨 After an inexplicable delay, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals has affirmed the jury verdict awarding E. Jean Carroll $5 mil in the first of her defamation cases to go to trial against Donald Trump. The jury found Trump slandered her when he said she was lying about being sexually abused by him.

Mike Luckovich is incredible as always.

I wish I lived in a country where Mitch McConnell, John Kelly, Bill Barr and John Bolton had at least half the balls of E. Jean Carroll, Stormy Daniels, Christine Blasey Ford, or Anita Hill.

In addition to confirming what we all already know, this just underscores how little courage and how much thirst for acceptance by fascists @Disney and @ABCNews has/had in relation to Trump's lawsuit.

I’m sure he wants the history of it all told his way.

Rest in peace to Submariner LT James Earl Carter Jr, USN (Ret). Carter, the only U.S. President to graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy, leaves a legacy of service. The USS Jimmy Carter (SSN-23), a Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine, carries his name in honor of his dedication to our nation.

Welcome to Heaven, Jimmy Carter.

RIP Jimmy Carter.

This is so spot-on it’s scary.

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech? We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

It's all fun and games until these people are in charge of running our country for the next four years

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Cool. So there will be like 12-13 people left.

He’s just now figuring this out

Soon enough, Trump will start to execute his agenda. He will continue to lie about the 2020 election. Those of us who call him out for what he is — a deranged election-denying autocrat — will be vilified and threatened. That is how we know we are doing the right thing. That we are effective.

Should we continue to encourage kids to go to college ? Or push them to take up a trade ? I believe in college. Learning how to learn, IMO, is a critical life skill. Being exposed to people of different backgrounds, makes yiu wiser Qualifier- it should be a school you can afford.

🤣

But Make America Great Again… FOR SOME!

This this and just this

They are all getting exactly that which they deserve.

This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

Jigsaw vs. Elon is heating up, folks...

William Webster, the only person to lead both the FBI and CIA, is raising objections over whether Kash Patel & Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's picks to be directors of the FBI and national intelligence, are qualified to serve in the Cabinet. He says neither nominee meets the demands of top intelligence jobs.

I know it’s a weird thing to say so I’ll blame the narcotics from surgery. You really don’t have to be a shithead to other people because they like something. Especially strangers. You can just move along and not be an asshole. It’s a choice.

The MAGA faithful are finally beginning to realize that Elon’s tech bros think they’re lazy, uneducated and unmotivated. These self-serving tech bros took advantage of gullible MAGA voters just so they can slash regulations, lower their taxes, and protect their business interests in China.

This nails it perfectly.

Irony would like a word.

Not a perfect man. Not a perfect president. But such a better man and better president than either Elon Musk or Donald Trump that hopefully he's well aware his legacy will outshine theirs forever. He got bills passed no one thought possible, oversaw a historic pandemic recovery, and modeled decency.

Kash Patel is dangerous and should never ever be the FBI Director. Agreed? Send your letters to Senators via the link below right now! Help us get to our next goal of 75,000 total!

It looks like the pilots of the Azerbaijan airliner shot down by Russia, defied all odds and acted heroically. The fact that some survived was amazing

All the folks who have been screaming about World War III for the past four years are suddenly very eager to get into wars with the entire world.

IDK who needs to hear this, but you're allowed to like one part of a band's discography and not the other. You don't have to know the whole history of a band to be a fan. You can just simply LIKE the music. You don't need to know names of every album or song or band member. You can just LIKE music.

CNN is hopelessly broken. 1. This "expansion" would require military invasions of several allies in violation of international law. 2. It would violate several treaties. 3. The Louisiana Purchase was the sale of land by a colonial power (France). These are sovereign nations.

Not a day passes that someone doesn’t tell me that they are exhausted or, more candidly, afraid. It is okay to be tired and understandable to be afraid. Courage doesn’t come from being well rested and feeling safe. It is found in overcoming those emotions. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...
