I don’t wish anything bad on that poor kid, but good lord, concepts of thoughts and prayers for the dimwitted parent.

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much you’re cutting from congress’ own $6.5 billion budget….

know one thing, Trump isn’t going to dig Elon’s 34% approval rating dragging his ass underwater like an anchor indefinitely. Because that anchor is firmly attached to Trump.

When he passes, I think he should lie in state in an eastern Kentucky gas station, so all the people he ignored, who needed so much help, can come and piss on his coffin.

The 'find out' phase is here.

Dear Americans, The only way anything ever gets better is for all the spoiled morons of America to suffer the consequences of their own vile, stupid, hate-filled plans. They may destroy the Department of Education but in time they will learn that pain is a wonderful teacher.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Calling for a national ban on same-sex marriage - my advice work on things that will help Americans not harm - this can only harm people who love each other, to support this bill is to contradict real Christian values- heartlandsignal.com/2025/02/18/n...

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Donald Trump resorted to threats against Maine's governor, after they came to verbal blows over the state's compliance with an executive order.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

DEI is good for our business, Coca-Cola says- msn.com/en-us/money/... Coca-Cola has warned that DEI policy changes could negatively affect its business. The company said fostering an inclusive workplace culture was "critical" to its success. Pepsi rolled back all of theirs. Drink Coke!

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

Brilliant segment on the vital role the NIH exercises in advancing Alzheimer’s research to unlock future treatments. Strong and very recent bipartisan support. Well done and thank you @maddow.msnbc.com

How long until they realize FAFO

This is not how federal criminal investigations work. —me (former federal criminal investigator)

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia has published a letter sent to him by Trump’s Department of Justice threatening to potentially prosecute him for criticizing Elon Musk.

This.

gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

This is literally the headline of the British Daily Star this morning: I thought the “world respected Trump…”

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Keep in mind that the probationary federal employees who are now being fired are NOT just newly hired ones. If a long-term employee is promoted to a higher-level position, such as a supervisory or managerial role, then the employee may be subject to a probationary period for that new position.

And you’d better believe the Chinese and other actors are ready to fill the void." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-human-...

Cretin of the decade, no other contenders, so you dont have to cheat for this you prize prick

So as I mentioned earlier, Claudia’s Corgi puppy Gracie was fixed yesterday. According to her discharge papers, the veterinary hospital gave her ketamine. So: Does that mean she was a good DOGE?

In a crisis, you must be willing to do things you've never done before. You have to have the behavioral flexibility to respond intentionally vs. react. The best practice for this? To be able to do things you've never done before, you need to start doing things you've never done before.

This is also what she voted for

“Zelensky survived a dozen Russian assassination attempts including a special forces assault on his presidential complex.He stood up to Trump. I’m sure he’ll be deeply impressed to learn our Congressional Republicans live as terrified hostages of their own party leader.” ~ @michaeldweiss.bsky.social

I cannot tell a lie: George Washington would have gone Revolutionary on trump over that "King" bullshit

Projection much?

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

It’s amazing to me that when Donnie calls himself a king, everyone listens. But when the Supreme Court crowned him king last year, crickets.

MAGAconomics: Fire the IRS! Nothing says ‘fiscal responsibility’ like laying off 6,700 IRS workers right before tax season. Good news: the ultra-rich can keep dodging taxes. Bad news: you might be waiting until 2026 for your refund. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/b...
