He thinks sitting behind a desk and covering his hand makes it go away.
Isn’t this shooting the messenger?
Wait… weren’t slaves illegal aliens?
It is a classic because I can move.
It’s backwards now. He should be approving bills from Congress.
They are driving the wrong way on a one way street. The director should be submitting her recommendations. She was terminated for not following Trump’s plan.
Those Reform nutjobs reminded me: "Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, grabbing an Indian curry or Turkish kebab takeaway, then going home to sit on Swedish furniture & watch American shows on a Japanese TV, while being suspicious of anything foreign."
We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.
the biggest thing i hope studios take away from the success of Sinners and K-Pop Demon Hunters is that, wow, audiences actually DO like and want original stories and don't need every goddamn movie to be a sequel or reboot
Shout out to everyone who can remember every word to some random 80s song but can't remember the password they created yesterday
Rep. Greg Steube: "As more and more illegals are deported from our nation, it'll give the opportunity for more citizens of our country to take these jobs."

If you think a golden ballroom is more important than childhood cancer research… I have nothing left to say to you. Please unfollow me. #pediatriccancer #cancermom
Thanks, Joe!
"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937
I work for the government. We were already reducing staff size and returning to the office when he took office. All he did was wreck it.
A Pentagon source tells me the Ukraine arms cutoff is "the tip of a really ugly iceberg of these assholes freelancing."
Who is going to tell her these are NON health benefit offering jobs? So the net will be zero.
The United States has recorded its highest annual measles cases in 33 years. The milestone marks a public health reversal in defeating a highly contagious, vaccine-preventable disease as the anti-vaccine movement gains strength.
We have a third grader for president.
Susan Collins comes to mind.
If we ever vote her in

I can guarantee a Harris/Walz administration would not be stacking its Cabinet with MSNBC hosts and asking Rachel Maddow whether they should start a war in the Middle East.
It has helped me understand how my body reacts to different food types.
Making up reasons to end it.
A great nickname for Hegseth: “No balls”
My first comment to the man in the bird shirt is I asked to speak to the person in charge. When he said that me, I would have said not dressed like that.
He left because Zelinski showed up.
The others. This was supposed to be about the others. All of a sudden it’s a bad plan when it’s about them.
If I can’t pay my bills, I wouldn’t work less hours.
We have a path to citizenship problem. Deporting people doesn’t fix it.
We have a path to citizenship problem. Deportations don’t fix it.
So after terrorizing communities and ripping families apart with ICE raids at farms and restaurants, DHS is suddenly “pausing” because of labor gaps? Wild how the war on undocumented immigrants stops the second your rosé doesn’t pour itself and your salad’s missing veggies.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Maybe he was making Dukie?
So based on numbers , the Taco parade wouldn't have filled a fifth of Michigan Stadium The Big House. The No Kings rallies would have filled over 98 Michigan Stadiums. To give some perspective.
We had a deal. They tore it up.
💯
He could have just had his party at a Chuck E Cheese
If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼
It shows how feckless he is. He started it. Tells everyone it’s a bad idea. It’s still happening.
Why are they still investigating Biden?
It’s clear to me Trump picks on people he thinks can’t fight back.

Jeffries: "We will not be lectured by Donald Trump and anyone in the Republican Party about issues of law and order ... he pardoned hundreds of violent felons, criminals, who brutally assaulted police officers and attacked the Capitol on January 6. That's what Donald Trump did on day one."
The legitimacy of a protest does not depend upon who is protesting or their grievances.
She was right.
We appreciate you Anne!
Key word, deserves. They are changing who deserves.
lying is all they do
Key words: right people Who are the right people?
Make this make sense. 🤷🏼♂️
The GOP wanted to impeach Biden for a fake $5M bribe from Ukraine that was made up by a guy sitting in prison for lying about it, but they’re cool with a $400M plane from Qatar. Do I have that right?
She lies with conviction.
Didn’t he take an oath?
“Holy rusted metal, Batman!"
I am a government servant. We don’t treat ourselves like this.
The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM
How dos he know this?
🤣🤣
Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
I’m not. I am an EdD working as a training specialist for the VA. I could do better elsewhere. I’ll have 35 years of federal service and I feel like I’m fish wrap.
Until September which now makes sense. Cuts to the workforce that don’t show up.
Rich people acting stupid is embarrassing
This part
Donald Trump has made himself—and by extension, us—the laughing stock of the world.
Good morning 💙💛
Another solution in search of a problem.
Good morning 💙💛
Plain clothes ICE officers showing up armed to do “welfare checks” on people’s houses. What if the lawyer hadn’t been there? Zoom in on the faces of these ICE officials-they are complicit in the terrorism of the Trump administration.
Is the administrative state anyone that gets in their way?
Real whiplash watching the Trump message go from “we’ll fix everything on day one” to “suck it up buttercup, this is gonna hurt.”
Just the fact that he is considering a third term means he has no respect for the constitution.

The fact that the Department of Justice has not, and will never, launch an investigation into this massive national security breach tells you all you need to know about this lawless and profoundly corrupt Administration.
The guy who kept top-secret documents in his bathroom doesn’t think sharing war plans with reporters is a big deal.
Trump doesn’t know there is a measles outbreak in DC?
Thank You Jared Moskowitz, Elizabeth Warren, Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, and Pete Buttigieg for speaking out against our leaders who have committed espionage.
In case you missed it: the Pentagon--that's Hegseth--got warned about using Signal a week ago.
A person drives drunk (on average) 80 times before getting a DUI. How many classified attack plans have been compromised w/adversaries, vs. US journalists?
It take long
People are making an "L" shape with their fingers to their foreheads at me when I drive around in my cybertruck, indicating they Love the car
I don’t believe X should be where we get official government information.
Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.
He knows they screwed up so he’s distancing himself from the situation.
Disgusting
:)
Wait for the international tourists stop coming.
The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.
The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.
