Where is the grave so we can piss on it?
It's time for poetry
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."
Frey: "We need an assault weapons ban nationwide. We need to have a high capacity magazine ban. And if the federal govt and states aren't gonna act, give us the ability to protect our constituents. Give mayors & council members the ability to protect in Mpls 435,000 residents that call Mpls home."
"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." —The Declaration of Independence
Usually, I am no fan of gerrymandering by either party, but I am tired of fighting with one hand tied behind my back. Tired of bringing balloons to a gun fight. Tired of playing by the rules when one party stopped doing that decades ago. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...
Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.
A late night message from Gavin Newsom
Pritzker: "It's cheating. Donald Trump is a cheater. He cheats on his wives. He cheats at golf. And now he's trying to cheat the American people out of their votes."
Indeed she has.
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
He'll soon call them deplorables.
it's remarkably bleak that Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct by dozens of women, including an allegation that was adjudicated and in which he was found liable for sexual assault, and yet the American public needs still MORE evidence of his depraved character and unfitness.

Mr. Fetterman, it's really this simple: you're receiving $174,000 a year for a position to which you were elected after asking people to trust that you'd be an unwavering champion for working class families. I don't give a fuck that you missed your beach trip. Stop whining and get back to work.
We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that gives meaning to the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as the future.
This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.
Just no words...
Could there be a clearer metaphor for our country nowadays?
The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.
Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.
They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."
😂😂😂
Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most
In 1930, 6 months after the Smoot-Hawley tariffs were enacted by President Hoover, world trade decreased by SIXTY PERCENT (60%). Because of policies like the Smoot-Hawley tariffs contributing to the Great Depression in the 1930's, Hoover is considered one of our WORST president's. Sound familiar?
Truth. Right. Here. 😎✨
Correct.
Letterman for Pres!
Am I depressed because of what's happening or am I depressed because of the people who somehow didn't see it coming? Both. It's both.
Again.
And suddenly it all makes sense, doesn’t it?! 👇 More appeasement for Putin.
I assumed the post date aligns with your time zone not mine. Sorry if I got that wrong. It's a beautiful shot, btw.
What do they expect women to do after a miscarriage?
How do you post a picture dated before the post date?
If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.
Good question. Why DOES Pete Hegseth have a Russian phone number? 🤨
Well, they lied. Obviously.
NBC News: The Espionage Act contains a provision making it crime to disclose national defense secrets "through gross negligence." The law does not require info be classified, because it was written before the classification system existed. The law refers simply to "national defense information."
In a normal world Waltz and Hagseth would be fired for leaking the info and setting up the chat. Gabbard and Ratcliffe would go for possibly misleading Congress yesterday.
I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now
I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT
Make this go viral! Her husband’s life was put at risk by the Signal texts.
I had legit completely forgotten this.
Jawdropping. You would expect this in a dictatorship, not the United States. This country is unrecognizable.
Sad to say, but I agree.
This is the story that Karoline Leavitt said probably wasn’t accurate when it was first reported by Reuters because she said they aren’t reliable.
The people who are cheering on the elimination of the Department of Education couldn’t even tell you what it does without looking it up. 🤦♀️
Me too!

Asked, and answered…👇 Explains a lot, doesn’t?!
She's married to 59 year old real estate guy from her home state of NH. Had to get married so her Catholic reputation wasn't ruined by an out of wedlock kid.
She's catholic and so having her baby out of wedlock would be a sin. Curious how much time she spends with baby Nico. Don't think real estate husband Nicolas Riccio is a stay at home dad type. Pretty sure it won't last.
It will be New Hampshire, where she is from. We are typically a purple state. Democratic senators and congressman with a Republican as governor.
But she could bring her kids. They'd be the right ages for the pedophile brothers.
Maybe she's kinky and wants to be raped.
What a different world we could have.
Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds. Gov Mills: See you in court
Is this what they meant by peak government efficiency?
OMG! He's such a child.
Welcome to Florida.
If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
True.

I think @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com just said, Democrats in Congress are trying to fix stupid. 😂 “Every rational thing the opposition is saying to Donald Trump and to Elon Musk is just bouncing off that solid wall of stupidity.” And we need to keep asking them—what are you going to do about it?!
Pass. It. On. ✨
Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"
We're living George Orwell's 1984: IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.
The rush to destroy things like USAID and other agencies before lawsuits can stop them is to make it moot. When our stupidly slow judicial system finally moves to stop them it will be far too late. If all 10,000 USAID employees are home and projects abandoned it’s done. It’s evil.
This guy's in charge of shaping policy for airline safety. Scary stuff.

So naturally, you know what to do…👇 Enjoy. 😎✨
Some good news for a change…👇 Pay ATTENTION, now!
Pete Buttigieg responds to Trump:
FACTS.
I hate his demented smug face more every day.
Well said, Pete Buttigieg
Fourteen hours before the crash. 👇
I agree completely.
Exactly
Trump revoked the Equal Employment Opportunity executive order of 1965. The federal government can now discriminate based on race, religion, and gender. Pure evil.
Quite frustrated with the follower notifications. Keep telling me have new followers but won't let me see them for last 4 days!
Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
I really wish girls with only fans accounts would stop following me. Go Away! Not interested!
