These older Republicans make me sick. They could have helped stop the cruelty and ineptitude along the way. But they went along with it. And then when they retire, they pretend that it's so upsetting to them.

Sounds like too many people in the US are finding ways to get news that isn't vetted by the Trump administration.
... but I give you my solemn oath, I will keep pushing towards one!
I could see someone who is not from NY staying out of it. But Jeffries is from NY - barring misbehavior, support the Democratic candidate!
Is it the lies that make the skin turn bizarre colors?
All I can think is how awful the man has to be to make John Fetterman look like the better choice for Senate.
We ain't inching. We are there.
There was the possibility of a cease fire before DT started meeting with Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago
Why is anyone surprised? He said this months ago. When he says horrific things, he means them.
It's not slipping. It's done. Even our oldest allies will take a wait and see approach when the MAGA years end.
This is how Tea Party/ MAGA did it.
The whole point seems to be to isolate the US and its citizens. It's one way to trap everyone inside the country. From the abusive spouse playbook.

It was ALWAYS in the plan. Everything that's happening was in Project 2025 & Agenda 47. As Walz said back when he was running, you don't put together a plan unless you intend to use it.
The R's likely believe they have a better shot with someone who will toe the line like she did but isn't on record saying the quite part out loud.
People like Johnson invoke God because it gives them coverage for doing nothing for others... they just leave it to God. Like offering thoughts and prayers.
This is one of those times I'm okay with the US health care system. At a minimum, let people who spread this dangerous disinformation end up with crushing medical debt for the rest of their life.
I'm not surprised to see the NYT on this list. They did the same thing to help Trump get reelected & continue to hide the outrages taking place in the US (& downplay the size & scope of the protests taking place).
It was all there in Project 2025 and Agenda 47.
There are protests, you just need to follow music festivals on-line to see it.
Cheers to the Miccosukee Tribe for suing the government!
Yeah but - I'm sure he's leaving with a huge amount of stock.
He's not stepping down, he's stepping up to the Board of Directors. Mediocre white men tend to fail UP.
RIP Terence Stamp. Great actor. The Limey will always be one of my favorite films.
I'm sure the fact it was a WOMAN who put out the corrected numbers helped to get her fired.
The attacks on higher education started way before Trump by Republicans. That's why there are so many more women attending college than men. Men bought into the lie they don't "need" college & then can't put it together that their earning power has dropped. Women know they need an edge.
Let's keep it even more simple... so you're saying that it doesn't matter if deaths are preventable thanks to modern technology. And it was a choice by the far right to pull that lifesaving technology & twist themselves into pretzels to justify it. Why don't you go live in a cave already.
I love her already.
If there is an election.
Don't forget not recognizing (a visibly older) George Clooney.
I have a hard time believing that a Murdoch newspaper, after all this time, would publish anything negative about 4547. Maybe it's just a way to pass funds. I sue you, you settle for X million & I can't get impeached for it.
This isn't the only corporation kowtowing for a merger.
I'm going to watch Colbert for as long as he is on but it's bigger than CBS, it has to be everything under the Paramount banner.
Colbert cancelled. So another corporation can kowtow to Trump. 6 months before mid-terms too. Another voice shut down.
It's part of the foxification of the Washington Post. It's sad to see that once great newspaper fall to darkness.
It is no accident. They are taking away any semblance of an independent media in this country. They'll come after Tik Tok again soon because they want it safely in the hands of a "friendly" billionaire.
Any outrage over Jan 6 on the part of Republicans (with the exception of TWO House members) was always performative. Their votes tell the story.
They did the same thing during Trump's 2016 presidency. They said in Project 2025 that they were going to erase all mentions of climate change. No one should have been taken unawares.
Fantastic news.
I was wrong. I DO care about the Epstein files. How many elected officials with a R behind their name are on that list anyway?
Those fools. They've been red-pilled.
He runs like a couch-f**ker from suburban Ohio.
I cannot believe someone voluntarily mated with that man.
She doesn't know the difference between entitlement & being able to realistically assess the importance of the work one does.
Almost there, but call it what it is, a concentration camp.
They can object now or be a war criminal later.
"government officers"? Doesn't he mean law-breaking government contractors?
The point has always been to break the government. Why pretend anything else?
Who you vote for (or don't bother to vote for) matters.
I don't give 2 hoots about the Epstein files. It's just a distraction. Dead kids in TX thanks to Doge cuts? Look over there Epstein! Massive hospital & nursing home closures expected b/c of the "Beautiful Bill"? Epstein! Concentration Camps built in the Everglades? Epstein!
I've been wondering when the people arrested by ICE & then given out to corporations to work start striking.
I tried to think of something to say to make it not hurt, but it is what it is. Taco n his Cult killed these Americans. We r in Dark Times. It’s ok to be sad, angry, afraid, but don’t let them break u. #notofascism
Over 30 dead in Texas b/c of cuts to NOAA, weather satellites, national weather service. On 5/16, the tornado sirens didn't go off in KY because of cuts to the national weather service. The warning system was there prior to 1/20/2025 but DOGE just went through and slashed.
Part 2 is eventually privatizing what they destroyed. Because there is money to be made. The people who die in the meantime? No big deal for the greedy & soulless.
Don't give them ideas.
They take something that works (national weather service). Destroy it. Let people die and clamor. And then replace it/ privatize it with an Elon Musk satellite product & let the billionaire rake in more billions.
More likely, his personal brand is suffering so he's now trying to appear moderate.
"... while enriching ourselves. Yeah God!"
It's what Republican Voters said that they wanted back on 11/5/2024.
This is what Republican Voters VOTED for. The information was all there. This is on Republican Voters. Nursing home closures, hospital closures, $2 Trillion to the deficit. Own it Republicans.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Guns, suing to get women's medical records from other states, maternal death rates so high the numbers are suppressed at election time, some of the highest personal property taxes in the US, power grid so bad that the Gov asked people to keep the thermostat below 78. "Not nuts." Huh.
This has been happening in rural towns for decades. The impacts are right there to be seen, if anyone cared to look. Just as the Republican plans for Medicare, Medicaid & SNAP were right there in Project 2025.
All anyone had to do was look at Project 2025/Agenda 47. The information was available.
It makes sense. That $280M in artillery is corporate welfare for US arms companies. Millionaire/billionaires get their pockets lined & grandma/grandpa can end up on the streets. It started with Reagan/Gingrich, Republicans just carried on.
The Olympics should be boycotted anyway. It's not safe to enter the US.
Not to mention that only 3 months ago, US intelligence was saying that Iran was NOT a threat for nuclear weapons at this time.
ineptitude in action
Weird thing just happened to me on threads. It says I was suspended for violating policy. But I never comment on threads - so what violation? I tried to submit an appeal & it rejected saying I was suspended for some other reason. Is it b/c of the posts I like? Mainly in support of No Kings?
He did practice escalations during the George Floyd protests. And Project 2025 specifically talked about Magats desire to put the military in US cities. So no one should be surprised.
What a wonderful lead in to the 250th anniversary of US Army! Our parents joined the National Guard in the 30's and ended up fighting against the Nazi's. Their grandchildren/great-grandchildren are deploying in the streets of the US in support of Nazi's. Way to go.
I think discussions of the male loneliness epidemic are one of the few times when it's appropriate to respond with "but not all men".
Does Illinois law really cover/ protect mercenaries though?
Around 20% of Iowa residents are on Medicare. Those are the people she is supposed to represent. She's a ghoul.
An immigrant!
... so it can be monetized
When all of their assets are transferred to the billionaires buying everything up for cheap & they are desperate, who do they think is going to be doing the jobs of all of those immigrants? They (& their children thanks to the rollback of child labor laws) will do those thankless jobs for pennies.
Klan members gotta Klan.
For 6 years. Which he believes makes him an expert on Catholic doctrine. Over a Pope.
If you don't have to take the risk, don't take the risk. When US citizens are worried about returning to the US after travelling internationally, rethink your choice.
Maybe she realizes there's a good chance she can't be voted out by 2026.
We just need a little more time to take all of your savings...
Rebrand as a "church"
That this particular Catholic convert of all of 6 years thinks he can speak on Catholic doctrine.... Just f off already JD.
If there is "blame" to be had outside of the people who are breaking the law with impunity, I'm putting it on the 50% of voting age US citizens who could not be bothered to cast a vote.
Economic Blackout 2.0 starts today. April 18, 19,20. Do not fund your own oppression.
With the shit storm taking place right now, this is what you want to talk about?
Isn't that what the Supreme Court laid the groundwork for?
#1 stop calling it a prison, it's a concentration camp. Then you begin to understand who is being sent to the camps.
The tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas...
Don't fall for it, as seen under the current Trump administration, it's just a way to divert your money to billionaires after some market manipulation.
The one woman I respect on that trip was Amanda Nguyen. The rest... not so much.
If they can get away with doing it to Kilmar, they will use it against everyone else - including US citizens.
Look at them testing out disappearing citizens.
I'm nervous about re-entering the US after travel as a citizen. I wouldn't risk it if I was not a citizen. It's not worth it. There are other places to visit.
In other words, he was targeted & you are naive if you believe that they won't cross more lines to target others.
Sounds like something you would do to keep people IN
This country isn't going to recover from the brain drain for decades. If ever.
When Trump crashes the economy for real, a fair chunk of people won't have a choice. They'll work in unsafe conditions for poor pay. And given that Trump is also attacking public education, factory or field work or the military is all they will be fit for.
Especially if you see one close at a stop light & notice all the fingerprints on that stainless exterior.
