Who would want that orange taint?
Just saying.
An ‘ultracrepidarian’ (19th century) is one who loves to give their opinion, at length, on matters they know nothing about.
Can’t trust the numbers anymore.
Nate Silver can eat it.
Great actor. Great Canadian.

They eventually eat their own.
WTF?
Even that display made him sick.
You break it you bought it.
Aren’t we all?
Rinse and repeat this message of worker support. It just never gets better.
You
That’s not confusing at all. Might be plain the incompetence, irresponsible behavior and irrationality of it all.
They want the babies they just don’t want to take care of them when they get here.
More MAGA millions down the drain. Wouldn’t therapy been cheaper than Grumpa’s second revenge tour?
MAGA stupidity has a price tag.
Keep it going. Russia is a house of cards just waiting for that final push
He’s a fucking moron.
Can’t be that good if he’s yelling about it again.
Party of family values.
No, that’s 40 years of stupidity not branding.
Who is the child trafficker?
Propagandists need people to prop them up. This is picture of the whole prop department.
That’s called an assault on civil rights.
They were wage slaves.
"They're takin' our jobs!" has NEVER been true. It's a lie to make US-born people resent immigrants and get them to support harsh, cruel, anti-immigrant measures. No US-born citizens are rushing to fill the jobs undocumented people were doing.
He’s been mentally incapacitated since he first ran in 2016. Good job MAGA, Trump has more age related ailments than Joe Biden could even remember now.
In the words of Father Michael Pfleger, a priest for more than 50 years, they should look into the “mirror and address the violence coming from the White House … address the violence of cutting Medicare and Medicaid … address the violence of refusing to ban assault weapons.”
They should also accept responsibility for the loss of human life and liberty that attends their dismantling of an imperfect but salutary federal government 250 years in the making.
No this is murder and a war crime.
Don’t trust this guy.
This is what happens when you have a cracker over a barrel on the Epstein files.
Garcia: “We finally heard from the Epstein estate. They’ve agreed to provide the actual Epstein book, along with other documents that haven’t been made public yet.”
Worst Chief Justice in history.
Don’t forget the $500 million to paint the American side of the border wall. Said it would burn the hands of those climbing it. Shouldn’t they have painted the Mexican side first? Their trying to keep Americans from escaping this mental asylum.
Beautiful
Burn.
Five times five deferments.
History repeats.
🚨BREAKING: Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe (R) reinforced GOP power grabs sweeping the country, calling a special legislative session Friday to redraw congressional districts and weaken the ability of voters to pass laws through ballot initiatives. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
This is what the bottom of the slippery slope looks like. Goons casually ignoring civil rights without repercussions and even less shame.
AI is stealing not creating new information.
What color is the sky in this scumbag’s world? Mullah Miller is an ideological moron of the MAGAT movement.
The only thing that is consistent with Trump is the incompetence.
How is this winning?
Who are they and what’s their problem?
Keeping it classy by Donny Douchebag.
Coincidence, I think not.
They’re still trying to bury the past.
Rage, rage for the dying of the right.
That would be the theme of the Trump years.
🔥 @mizzwelch.bsky.social : “It’s the complete moral collapse of the 🇺🇸 government… the cabinet meeting with 3.5 hours of superficial praise is so cringeworthy… he redecorated the Oval Office like Marie Antoinette and built himself a ballroom because he has zero intention of leaving…”
Child abuse has been legalized by these ICEholes.
Wow going for Putin’s record for rambling shouldn’t be a thing any American President aspires too, even this malignant moron. No wonder he wears diapers, his ass must be chapped after this display by all these butt-snorkelers. What a Chump.
Best book ever.
Putin is the perpetrator while Trump is his patsy.
These people are Sick-ophants.
Performative cruelty at its finest.
They couldn’t handle the truth.
Shameful.
Disaster of a human being with a small penis to boot.
Truth
Brilliant
I see that Australia has its share of snowflakes. Triggered much?
Put proper pressure on Putin’s regime with secondary sanctions and it will fold like the house of cards it really is.
This is the correct response.
Fuck that traitor.
But I thought Putin wants peace? Trump is criminally incompetent.
That’s not the joke, he’s the punchline. What a delusional loser.
How to say you’re intellectually dishonest without saying the quiet part out loud - give justification for slavery and other past transgressions.
A murderous dictator has kompromat on the US President and is making him do his bidding. The Cold War never ended for Vladimir Putin. What is happening to America right now is his greatest triumph.
Yes, Drudge. Donald is being blackmailed. I see a lot of folks saying this is a "distraction" from the Epstein files, but I think they're directly related.
Keep your foot on his neck.

Wolff: This is a key issue right now in the way the White House is looking at the Epstein scandal. The fear is that Ghislaine Maxwell can tie Donald Trump to the details of what Trump and Epstein called the P*ssy Committee. The Committee consisted of their efforts to get girls for Prince Andrew.
Rachel is Right ! Chump is At War With Democracy, and Our American Values and Institutions...
Gross, just gross.
As Jan would say: Russia, Russia, Russia!
Insanity is doing the guns don’t kill people dodge every time and expecting it to get better. How’s that working for you?
Schools Theaters Concerts Malls Churches Synagogues Mosques Parks Nightclubs Offices Festivals Stores Military Bases Bars Post Offices Yoga Studios Super Bowl parades Nowhere is safe from the scourge of gun violence in America. You can't tell me we must simply accept it.
The war on garbage has started. Maybe they should start with the removal of the piece of shit that lives across the street.
One has to wonder what convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell had to promise for her to move to a less secure prison facility. #Voices4Victory
When you're ignorant of history and incurious about anything which doesn't just stroke your paymasters' egos and your ethnocentric revanchism, every idea that serves your purpose seems new and exciting, no matter how old, evil, and tediously stupid it actually is.
⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 Today's thread contains material that you will find disturbing, and rightfully so. Lynching Black people was horrific in and of itself, but what happened during & afterwards was gruesome. Pull up a seat.🪑 #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
This is why MAGA can’t have nice things. They kill their own when they don’t pass the stupidity test.
Another disaster waiting to happen.
They’ll have to pry my sub from my cold dead hands.
