Absolute horse manure.
Trump on RFK Jr., the CDC, and vaccines (a translation). He seems to be saying that he was shown data about COVID19 vaccines being safe and effective, but that the pharma companies didn’t show those amazing data to anyone else, like RFK Jr. He thinks this is why there is a “mess” at CDC.
If Trump is so adamant that drug companies publish their vaccine data for the good of the public, then why doesn't he publish the Epstein files?
Yes!Yes!Yes!!!!
The news media continue to treat the Trump regime as a normal political entity. It's not. The USA has never had to endure a presidency as corrupt and destructive. It should be reported on like the national disaster that it is.
I just don't believe him. Not for one minute.
I wonder if he remembers why he ran for office.
And so far, silence from the White House.
Since Trump won't leave, we'll have to act as if he has. It's time we announced that Trump is dead. Put it out there, put it on the Sunday AM news shows, get the talking heads to start questioning Trump's actual existence. Cite ambiguities in photos and clips, instill doubt. Trump is dead.
This seems exceptionally unhinged, even for Trump.
I don't think Trump understands what's coming. In fact, I'm sure of it.
In celebration, every 4th of July, towns across America allow people to draw and write stuff with colored chalk on their sidewalks. It's not the chalk or the writing that DeSantis can't handle. It's the memorialization of a mass shooting. Because somehow that's woke and unamerican.
Will someone please post an actual video demonstrating that Trump is alive and walking the Earth? A real, verifiable video. Not some clip from last week or a couple of months ago.
RFK Jr.'s relationship with public health equates to Stephen Miller's relationship with the truth.
Electricity prices in LA aren't down. We have the bills to prove it.
Doing Trump's bidding. Not worthy of his office.
Either Trump doesn't understand how tariffs work or he's lying. Tariffs are NOT paid by the countries upon which they're imposed. Tariffs are paid by American companies that import goods from those countries. They pass those costs on to their consumers. But Trump still bloviates about them.
All this hoopla and they're illegal. Good grief.

Nobody has to burn an American flag to protest Trump. All you have to do is breathe, hold up a sign and curse.
Fox's shit doesn't fly if the viewer can think critically.
Those quotas can be hard to meet.
This is like making Mike Lindell head of the CIA.
A private meeting isn't enough. If they choose to speak out, the victims deserve to be heard in a public hearing, unfettered by the interests of either republicans or democrats. Their tragedy transcends partisan politics.
Honest, independent thought will almost certainly engender criticism at some point. While we may disagree from time to time, your ideas and observations are sourced from intelligence, not ignorance. Hope to see you here.
PERINO: Do you think specifically there has to be some sort of accountability on the transgender front? SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON: I think so. I mean, there's a common denominator to so much of this, right? The last one of these school shootings that we all saw and remember was another transgender.
Ninety-six percent of mass shootings are committed by straight men. The number of transgender shooters can be counted on one hand.
President Truth is probably the most inane, hypocritical nickname in the history of nicknames.
Tom Homan's message to Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "Get out of the way. Because we're going to do it."
Message to Tom Homan from ex-Chicagoan: Go fuck yourself.
A completely illogical statement: everybody likes the individual parts of the bill, but when you put them all together, people hate it. How does Johnson look at himself in the mirror every morning without cracking up?
Lori Chavez-DeRemer on Portland: "Oregonian, Americans, they want sanctuary states for themselves, and they want to be safe. We are a nation of law and order and I would expect we'll see a crackdown on a lot of other cities that are not following the law."
What exactly do your remarks have to do with labor? You're just another Trump toady mindlessly echoing his anti-immigrant policies.
You can't have vaccines or cancer research but RFK definitely wants you in a wearable that can transfer your health data to unsecure databases or have it shared with third parties, as Charlie McGill writes. prospect.org/health/2025-...
There are too many people sleeping through the Trump regime. This is not normal, not even close. Wake up.
Quack is whack.
RFK Jr. is nuts, irresponsible, and should be fired: "An estimated 1 in 5,000 people has a genetic mitochondrial disease. It’s common for mitochondrial diseases to receive a misdiagnosis due to the number and type of symptoms and organ systems involved." my.clevelandclinic.org/health/disea...
I can't imagine what it must feel like to walk your children to school through a phalanx of gestapo agents toting automatic weapons.
Building a wall is one thing, but building it inside a wildlife refuge is heinous.
He is surrounded by sycophants. Name one member of his toady cabinet who says no to him.
I'm tired of taxpayer money being spent to inflate Trump's already titanic ego.
He is also one of the leading public health scientists in the nation, responsible for saving countless lives in and outside the United States, so there's that.
Because saying "pregnant people" is so much more offensive and unprofessional as "grab them by the pussy."
If Trump is ever convicted of a crime and given a sentence, part of it should include his attendance in a beginning US history class. Not only should he be required to pass the course, but he should also have to pass the US citizenship test as well.
If this uber rally takes place, somebody should hack into the visual display system and put the Trump-Epstein videos up on the big screen.
RFK Jr. should have a wearable wrapped around his ankle.
I want her to stop sucking our oxygen.
Paxton's accusation that Beto "buys off politicians" rings hollow, considering his own corruption.
“Vladimir Putin is in trouble. Isolated, outmanoeuvred, and stalled on the battlefield, Russia is tottering financially and militarily, while Zelensky's Ukraine continues to hold the upper hand.” A good piece from @EngelsbergIdeas Engelsberg ideas.com/essays/russias-reckoning-is-coming/
You've got Putin, who won't stop until he gets all of Ukraine. You've got Zelenskyy, who rightfully refuses to give Putin any of Ukraine. And you've got Trump, who wants them both to cave so that he can get the Nobel Peace Prize. What could possibly go wrong?
Willful ignorance is now considered educating.
NEW: Alabama asks the Supreme Court to reverse a lower court ruling that the state’s congressional map violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Alabama argues that race-based districting under Section 2 is no longer constitutionally justified.
"Today, no one contends that the same degree of 'pervasive evil' persists." Degree? Oh, you mean today it's only 50% as evil as it was in 1965. Yeah, that works.
It was only the most sycophantic cabinet meeting in history. Totally nauseating.
What if Russia sends sharks with lasers on their heads and they grab onto the windmill at the bottom and then the centrifugal force hurls them onto our territory and then boom, there's laser sharks right on your street, President Trump is very concerned about that and every American should be too
"A swarm drone attack through wind farms." Gee, Doug, don't give them any ideas.
RESIGN.
Nothing says lowering the crime rate like picking up trash in a park.
Oh swell.
The best people.
You came away from Anchorage with nothing. No cease fire, no concessions, nothing. So you blame Biden. Do the planet a favor and resign.
Trump: "I'm not walking in Baltimore right now. Baltimore is a hellhole"
The fact of the matter is that Trump can't walk anywhere. He is physically unable to walk half a mile, even if it's in the Garden of Eden.
Please make it stop. It's starting to hurt.
Just an absolutely insane pair of sentences.
In that it is a direct assault on the well being of the planet, Trump's call to amp up the use of fossil fuels may not be an impeachable offense, but it's certainly something the International Criminal Court should take a look at.
Every time Trump opens his mouth, the planet gets a little bit dumber.
"Murders something"? Like the truth?
What a shit show.
Never have so many oral copulations been offered by so many for so few.
I guess I'll have to get all my pills from strangers now.
Frankly, I'd rather have a stuffed owl running the government.
Someone tell the cruise lines to cancel all those alcohol drink packages
It's also illegal to be under Trump's influence while acting as Attorney General.
Texas is expected to be where IRS’ new stance on religious leaders endorsing candidates will matter most, one expert said. More than 200 megachurches call Texas home. “Texas will be the epicenter for testing all these ideas out,” the expert said.
If churches want to advocate politically, then they can damn well pay taxes like the rest of us.
Hey Ronnie, please provide evidence that Florida was shortchanged during the 2020 census. Whom didn't they count?
Truly evil.
Somebody please ask him to name all 10.
Get him out of there now. Before it's too late.
Trump: "We have a very pretty violent fish that has, uh, comes from China. China carp, Chinese carp. And uhhhhh you see them jumping out -- they jump into boats and they jump all over the place. They have a lot of energy."
The next thing carp expert Trump will tell us is that he removed a Titleist from the great fish's blowhole.
Trump on tariffs: "We were richer then proportionally than at any time in the history of our country, and then stupidly in 1913 then said 'let's go to the income tax.'"
It would be interesting to watch Trump run the government without collecting income tax.
Sleep tight tonight. Trump is on the alert.
REPORTER: Do you plan to investigate Chris Christie? TRUMP: Uhhhh. Look, Chris is a slob. Everybody knows it. I always felt he was guilty. If they want to look at it they can. I always thought he got away with murder.
The very last thing Trump should ever say is that somebody got away with murder. He is the poster boy for corruption.
One aspect of personalist regimes is that they will prioritize going after dissidents from within their own coalition. Trump appointee Bolton targeted this week, now Trump's former debate prep partner.
I wouldn't cast aspersions about somebody else's hair, buster. It's poor salesmanship.
Trump's National Guard ruse is designed to be provocative and has nothing to do with actually lowering crime rates: www.theglobalstatistics.com/most-violent... Please note that Chicago is #25, ranked lower than Birmingham, Little Rock, Miami, Tulsa and other metro areas in red states.
The Governor of Maryland is providing Trump the opportunity to see first hand what's going on in Baltimore. This is a constructive, civil offer. So what does Trump do? He threatens to send in the National Guard. To hell with the Constitution and the democracy; what he wants is what we get.
Russia didn't negotiate an end to its war with Afghanistan. They walked away. The United States didn't negotiate an end to its war with Afghanistan. We withdrew. Not every conflict concludes at the negotiating table. Sometimes the invading nation just quits and goes home.
Traditionally, the FBI doesn't raid someone's home until an investigation is nearing its final stages. Vance's remarks are a sure sign that the raid on Bolton's home was retribution, not the result of fact finding. In other words, Vance is lying.
WASH POST: “The Pentagon has for weeks been planning a military deployment to Chicago… involves several options, including mobilizing at least a few thousand members of the National Guard as soon as September…” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Trump wants to provoke a violent reaction in whatever city he can do it in. Then he declares that a state of (civil) war exists and declares martial law. He suspends the 2026 elections, and all elections, indefinitely. Thereby circumventing the 22nd amendment and staying in office indefinitely.
