Link to this article from Feb 5, 2025. I hate posting it because of my giant head. tucson.com/opinion/colu...
Where do I get inflatable lips?
One thing Sensible Centrists refuse to acknowledge - and this was true during covid when people were also saying this stuff explicitly - is these people are eugnenicists who welcome a good plague to get rid of the old, botched, and bungled
In police state capitalist America, getting bodied by a cop for exercising your first amendment rights as directly as any founder could ever say you are is you doing felony battery on a cop
Time to fire your writer's room...
The most impressive thing about this campaign is how *creative* they are. They’re trying new stuff! Multiple times during the last few months I’ve thought “wow, I’ve never seen a campaign do that.” Much more of that needed everywhere.
Holy shit. This legit gave me chills. Texas State Rep. Ann Johnson clapped back at GOP members amid Wednesday's redistricting vote. WHITE WOMEN, this is the model. We have more power than others. We are the last to be silenced. We have a responsibility to SPEAK so others are HEARD.
Pam Bondi is deplorable open.substack.com/pub/contrari...
She kinda undermined her Trump exoneration by exonerating *everyone*👇👇
I suppose we all have our own definition of what is actually appropriate....
Perfect. No notes.
Release the full Epstein files with victims names only redacted. Until that happens, children in Ukraine and Gaza suffer and we will be entering a civil war at home and controlled by Putin still. I also believe Israeli intelligence has the goods on Donald and others.
To quote the late, great Carrie Fisher, things are getting worse faster than we can lower our standards.
donald is meeting with Putin this week. The Russian news agency posted this on November 11, 2024.
LMAO ~ I bet this really pisses off the ICE Barbie puppy killer! 🤭😏😆
It ain't going away, no it ain't going away....
If you aren't fighting for a righteous cause, you shouldn't be anywhere near power.
Trump’s dehumanization strategy is ripped straight from the Nazi playbook.
I am enjoying him on The Daily Show now. A new voice for me.
An occasional reminder. We are not related.
It is crappy $10 a gallon ice cream. Trader Joe's vanilla is much better.
Trump praises Epstein “secret” in lewd letter www.youtube.com/live/u_GbhTI...
27 different named women accused him of sex assault, he’s on video with Epstein where they are grossly leering at young women, Miss Teen USA contestants said he came in dressing room when they were naked, he bragged on the Access Hollywood tape about grabbing women. It’s obvious.

Nice picture with the article that shows half of his belly chopped off. Very flattering for the fat POS
Wow. So he votes to gut Medicaid and throw 17 million people off of their healthcare and then dumps his Medicaid related stock to cover his own ass? That’s just evil and cruel.

This is SO perfect.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.
Two observations It's just dawning on Trump now that Netanyahu has been playing him all along And when he pledged-in 2017 no less-that it would be relatively easy to achieve peace in the Middle East It was Trump who didn't (and apparently still doesn't) know what the f*ck he's doing
It is amazing that the three women that he singles out also happened to be people of color. Misogynist, rapist, racist - we really picked a winner with him.
Speaker AOC would be my pick. We need bold leadership.

We have long passed the point when impeachment is justified
Being uninvited from the White House caused Rand Paul to lose a lot of the respect he had for Donald Trump that Trump’s two impeachments, insurrection, four criminal indictments, criminal conviction, and sexual abuse damages verdict did not cause him to lose. Got it.

A few years ago, I filmed this bizarre protest with Polish people in Foley Square in New York. It was Pro Trump and they were doing the heil Hitler.

Democrats who support this legislation are stooging for donors. They deserve to be, and must be, called out.

Wonderful idea
I think she did. We had a long chat 10 days ago & she talked about how she got the writers to let Margaret evolve into a strong, amazing woman from the sterotypical comic Hot Lips character. She was proud of that & how that character was a breakthrough in the way women were portrayed at the time
If morons were idiots, then the name “morons” wouldn’t need to exist. You’d just call them idiots.
I hope you are seeing this as the compliment the OP means it to be. Cheers

Just got home from another hospital stay. Today I have to set up home health care between our house and her group home. Her meds alone cost 40-45k per MONTH before insurance.Between that and her routine care, we’d be bankrupt in months without Medicaid. #HealthCareHorrorStories
Trump's Medicaid cuts are a betrayal of the American people. He promised to protect our healthcare, but instead he's trying to destroy it. We won't forget this. We won't forgive this. #MomSky Save Our Medicaid
What is it called when you take people, provide no due process & send them to another country to work against their will? 🤔
I am grateful for investigative reporters!
Trump regime getting its money's worth from this absolute asshole.
The fucking deputy director of the FBI. How embarrassing. I'm so sorry, FBI.
What Bluesky is doing to Palestinians is violence and assisting in genocide.

Right. Purposely, to do things with no oversight. No FOIA. And this will not stop them.
who did this
Some breaking news in my latest. Others pointed out that Witkoff appeared to be in Moscow when he joined the Houthi PC Group chat. Sky News has a detailed story on his timeline in Moscow. I ran that against the timeline from the Atlantic article. Witkoff was waiting for Putin when he was added.(1/2)
Escalating the language in order to escalate the response. We are in an ugly and vicious cycle.
Opinion | I am a Republican because I believe in traditional family values. Here's why I support a government run by two men who between them have 19 children by 8 different women.
Once the social security administration is shut down, people will take to the streets. At that time a national emergency will be called. You can just imagine what happens after that, because there is no limit.
Hey Miami Cubans. How do you feel about Trump now?
I don’t know who wrote this, but is perfectly said.
Welp, there goes the US defense industry.
Hero!
A bad comb-over is a flashing red light.
It finally connected for me. Trump's coveting Canada is IDENTICAL to Putin's desire to annex Ukraine. Putin is the richest Kleptocrat in the world. Trump envies Putin like no other world leader.
I love this
The Barney Rubble blouse is an interesting fashion choice
SHAME ON YOU SCHUMER FETTERMAN DURBIN HASSAN GILLIBRAND KING SCHATZ PETERS SHAHEEN CORTEZ MASTO KING VETERANS WILL DIE TRUMP UNLIMITED POWER
Let’s face it, Schumer has been terrible even before this. It is time for new leadership. He isn’t the person for this moment in history, and the longer he clings to power the worse off we all are.
What an incredible afternoon with my idol @gloriasteinem.bsky.social ❤️ She inspired me to be a feminist, become a teacher, and start a feminist club at my school. I got go tell her that in person today. Thank you @ashantigholar.bsky.social & Emerge for an inspiring time and for all the work you do!
I'm a hard NO on the Republican spending bill. On cloture. On all of it. When a wannabe dictator is trying to seize power, it must not be given to him. Not without a fight. open.substack.com/pub/schiffno...
AOC slammed Mike Johnson, saying: “You run the government. If you have the votes, then go ahead. If you need Democrats, then you need to negotiate with Democrats. Those are your two options. Blaming someone else because your shoes are untied isn’t one.”

Nausea: How I feel under our current adminstration.
I’m not sure that Canada wants Donald Trump as their president, which could present one obstacle to them becoming “OUR CHERISHED 51st STATE!!!”
If we could just steal their form of government....
You need to take a break....
one of the things i truly believe is that a significant portion of this country is in the grip of a death cult
Being an asshole has consequences.
This.
This is the kind of grit that we need. Thank you to Mary and the 7 others for showing up even in the middle of a blizzard.
This is INSANE. Even if you think Zelenskyy was out of line or rude or whatever in the Oval, the US government is going to just throw the entire country of Ukraine under the (Russian) bus over this? Toddlers in kindergarten behave better, and more strategically, than this.

Tate is like Trump in this sense: the most grotesque thing is not that he exists, but that he’s hugely popular, and what that says about us as a species.
