Well, they do want more MAGAs in these roles... how else could they achieve this?

Good. Now, someone tell Nancy to get lost. She has lost her ability to guide the party, and her push for Gerry Connolly over AOC was a huge mistake. Connolly's death left yet another seat open, giving the GOP more wiggle room for votes. If you are over retirement age, you need to retire from office.
Unbelievable and disgusting.
Right... Rich men are smart and must be admired and respected, but independent wealthy women must submit to their future husbands because they don't know what's best for themselves.
Yeah, it's satirical. That's the point.
Or it's just a guy trolling Trump by doing all the things he does. Most Democrats don't view Gavin as the second coming.
No, they keep bringing in GOP guests that talk about the democrat "power grab." Sadly, it works.
This. 😉
Awww! Love penguins. ❤
Our big trucks in a country with a high population density and narrow roads? How many of these trucks do they believe they can actually sell there?
Scary. Since this study was focused on a time period before vaccines, hopefully, there will be a study that looks at how vaccines can affect the outcomes. I want to believe the probability of reigning the cancer cells would be reduced, since vaccines can help the body fight the virus faster. ❤
Same. ❤
What? We don't have unlimited money? Someone should tell Sean Duffy. He wants to build nuclear reactor on the moon. No, seriously.
If only Trump liked you more- things would have been different. I mean.. he pardoned two reality TV star fraudsters, who stole more money than you did. He also pardoned Steve Bannon, who defrauded thousands of people with his "We build the wall" scheme. Know that has to hurt..
We are so far in debt that we can't fund research to help people with illnesses, pay for SNAP, pay for Medicaid, or ensure that rural communities can have public news access... but we have cash for this?
The people pay tariffs, they are a tax. Should we all leave? That said, the future mayor shouldn't call it a "tax." Take a page from Conservative companies and call it a surcharge or better yet, since Fox News is trying to make paying tariffs "patriotic," call it a "duty."
Five bucks says it will be someone associated with the Heritage Foundation.
Trump has been a backstabbing con artist most of his life- it's public knowledge. You don't get pity for being being duped by him. Sorry.
I absolutely agree. This ridiculous law will only lead to more unnecessary deaths.
Had no idea! I'm with you, more game developers should be working on building/expanding accessibility. ❤
..and we're only 6 months in!
CNN was bought by a conservative, and Trump has shown he will use his levers of power to hurt anyone or any network that makes him look bad. Basically, many are caving to pressure like cowards.
He cheated in school, too! Mary Trump got his sister, Maryanne, to admit she did some of Donald's homework. Yes, he really does cheat at everything.
Republicans really have a problem with a person's right to choose what happens to their body. Act 861 will place a person's choice to have their organs donated in the hands of their family members after death. Organ donor? Nope, not if your family says "no." www.fox16.com/news/arkansa...
Yep, and the conservative base is okay with losing some freedoms and/or conveniences, if it means the people they don't like (or fear) lose more. This is how authoritarianism wins.
Of course. If you fire those who report negative things, eventually people won't do it. And no reporting on our environment is good reporting- thats the Republican way!
Same! No surrendering here. 😀
..we can't sit out, though. Just because we are annoyed, as that is how Trump won the second time. Democrats didn't vote, turnout, like they had before. So some of my anger is at them..
Can definitely understand that, but they are still the lesser evil. I think Nancy screwed up by pushing aging Democrats into lead committee positions- two who recently died allowing JD to be a tie breaker on bills. This weird push against younger Democrats in the party is super destructive.
Another ridiculous attempt to distract the public and make Trump feel better. Gross.
Exactly. He's in power and his party is the majority. On the media, conservatives have been buying up networks for the last few years, and no one seemed to care. They increased their social media reach, and there was a weak response to that, too. Democrats fell asleep at the wheel, big time.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the conservative Supreme Court give businesses more power to refuse service to individuals they disagree with?
Media lies, but there isn't much here. It's a claim by a person claiming to be formerly associated with the NSA, an agency that doesn't do election audits. It sounds as conspiratorial (even click-bait like) as some of the stuff on the right. Show evidence, have some consensus- otherwise hush.
There's no real evidence to it. It's some claim that's underpinned by someone who claims to have worked for the NSA- who did their own "research." The NSA doesn't audit elections, either. It's pure nonsense right now.
This claim is fishy, too. The NSA doesn't do election audits, and groups that do call this story a "claim." There doesn't seem to be any actual evidence- that's been verified.
Didn't Trump give her criminal husband a pardon?
Didn't he also cheat in school? I could be mistaken, but I recall Mary Trump getting Donald's sister, Maryanne, to admit she did some of his work in college. There is absolutely nothing this man does honestly.
Unfortunately, most of his base, and some Independents, will think Trump was justified because they don't know how things work. All conservative media has to do is make it seem like revisions are extremely rare, which will be easy to sell to an unaware group of people.
www.vox.com/science-and-... He's come a long way...
Greg Kelly would have been without the help of his dad's connections. Kelly was accused of sexual assault, but no charges were brought. His dad was an NYPD commissioner.
It's okay, half of the country has been carefully conditioned for the rising prices.. Fox and Newsmax have been making paying more for things "patriotic" since March. Prices are going up, but his poll numbers won't suffer.
Innocent? I guess, if you totally disregard all the actual evidence AND the multiple victims that came forward to testify under oath against her, specifically.
Still waiting on that clear evidence against Biden, Comer. Is it coming in two more weeks?
We are witnessing the dismantling/destruction of science- its achievements and many of its future hopes.. all the while people in positions of power push bibles on young children. Feel like humanity has been here before.
Hey! It's that guy that used an anagram of his own name to create a fake professional to support his economic views. Such a loser... and his desire to be dominated by a dictator is pretty creepy, too.
Justice Barrett refused to say whether or not she felt the Obergefell case was correctly decided during her senate confirmation hearings. If it goes to the Court, don't think we can look to her for help.
Great news!
With Trump, you have to continue serving his needs. The second you do something that makes him look bad without walking it back- you're done. That's how Trump gets people to continually cave to his demands/whims. It's lonely and cold on the side without any power.
Ah, he can pay for that because he hasn't been paying his small business partners.
Nah, I can definitely believe that unemployment is ticking back up considering all the ICE crackdowns, federal employee purges, and program cuts, like USAID, which purchased its food from American farmers. You can't do all that AND place tariffs on trading partners without causing harm.
He's projecting, again, which all but guarantees that the next person in the position will manipulate the numbers in his favor- to his credit.
Yes, they waived her sex offender status to accomplish this- so reports have said. Is anyone really surprised?
Never said "everyone" for either. The poorest have always suffered with little to no coverage or retirement- conservatives will do nothing to change that. The middle-class will be reduced, as a result of their policies. However, they will still try to profit from and control as many as they can.
So the party of "law and order" is promoting pedophiles, like Lawrence Taylor (who was at the WH today), and protecting them from harsh sanctions/punishments.
Greed is always a motivating factor. That said, conservatives like plans that can do two things (or more) at once. They can control people even more when they (corporations) control their healthcare AND retirement. Full stop.
www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/b... Privatizing it will make corporations, and those who own them richer, which is their goal. Corporations will put limits/restrictions on everything, which will destroy it. SSI needs to be federally funded/controlled to keep unbridled capitalism from destroying it.
Yep, it's their way to start the privatization of social security, which has always been one of their biggest desires. They'll get their way- someday.
I never trust anything coming out of this WH.
Trump had Lawrence Taylor, a convicted sex offender who attacked a 16 year old, help him roll out the Presidential Fitness Test for school kids today.. seriously.
The conservative pronatalists will likely try.
Conservative media would say that the ballroom is being funded by private donors. However, those private donors benefit the most from Trump's "BBB." Their huge tax breaks/benefits, paid for off the backs of the poorest and most vulnerable in our country, made their "donations" possible.
In other crappy news, Trump had Lawrence Taylor, a convicted child sex offender, at the WH to help roll out the Presidential Fitness Test (again) for children and teens. Yeah, we're doing great... 🙄
The people Trump hires are incompetent and usually woefully unqualified for their jobs. The administration is probably using ChatGPT, again, to set policy.
Pretty sure we've hit just about everything. Here's hoping scientists can find a way to reduce microplastics in the environment on a large scale.. soon.
Is he suggesting that food will be produced and distributed by bots powered by AI? Several tech CEOs have stated that they want to replace people with machines as much as possible- a threat they will fulfill if possible. Buckle up.
..and that U.S. growth report (3%) was largely due to a decrease in imports because of tariffs! No, the economy isn't doing "great." We don't know exactly how it's doing yet because Trump keeps on flip flopping on trade! Starting to think chaos is how they will hide a bad economy.
Done! Also, the wealth gap will only get worse. Thanks to Trump's bill, millionaires can now leave their children up to 30 million before they're taxed. It used to be an 11 million dollar ceiling. Glad they cut SNAP food benefits for the working poor, though. 🙄
Yes, boards are elected. Did not say they weren't. Nevertheless, there have been a growing number of those types of people getting on the boards across the country. I don't solely focus on my area alone. Finally, no. It isn't my fault because I voted against them when I could.
The land was already inhabited by people. Did these two get permission to come from them?
Yes, boards that are being filled by Christian Nationalist Maga Moms. Science will be replaced with tales of magic. Welcome back to the Dark Ages.
HHS is purging employees alongside the Department of Education, which was created by Congress and should be protected by law from being dismantled. SCOTUS gave the "ok" to destroy it with no reasoning. And yet, the story that is crushing the Trump administration is Epstein. Republicans are lost.
Sometimes, sure. Look at Trump and his close friends. Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Alan W. (Trump's longtime friend/CFO) all criminals.
Trump is impossible to reason with because he's a petulant child, who would rather burn everything down than accept a compromise. It is very difficult to reason with the lunatic- especially when he has the ability to place a triple digit tarrif on country without Congressional approval.
You nailed it. 👏
What are Republicans going to steal from to build their passion projects (not homes for those in need after natural disasters) when Trump ends FEMA?
Lies repeated can become the truth- for their base and a fair portion of independents. They know what they are doing.
Rural hospitals will not survive the loss of Medicaid money. They'll be playing doctor for grandma, too.
Absolutely. 😀
We are going to honor the military by forcing them to participate in a parade? How much will this spectacle cost the taxpayers? Also, why does it feel like Trump is just pointlessly spending money? Golfing, UFC fight nights, and his Super Bowl appearance cost us millions!
"...to the best of my ability" - Found the loophole! One with little abilities couldn't possibly be able to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution.
Overall, she didn't do a very good job with this interview. The price of eggs did go down, but not as much as Trump said; we know he's a liar. There were many things that have gone up in price that she could have harped on, but she hung onto this?
Yep, and the next jobs report is coming out on May 2nd. Don't know about you all, but I have a feeling it may not be "great."
Exactly. He believes whatever the people around him say- because they also say nice things about him. Trump is an unintelligent narcissist. Putin complimented Trump at a meeting, and Trump came away from it with the belief that Putin was a stand-up guy. If they like me; they must be right/smart. 🙄
This man's obsession with size is incredibly creepy.
Trump was right about one thing- Terry did do us a great disservice. He should have let Trump get the photo and continue on his crazy, idiotic, old man ranting.
Trump is so easily duped! Given that, are his people our leader(s)? They have to know how stupid he is- know that they can easily control/persuade him.
I want Karoline or Pam to provide us (the public) with the evidence from the court case(s) that found Garcia was/is a criminal/terrorist/gang member/human trafficker. If there isn't anything to show, someone needs to demand that they stop slandering the man.
That sounds more like Amazon.
The Constitution protects peaceful protests, but there are limits/restrictions. For instance, if officials find a protest presents "a clear and present danger" to public safety (potential for rioting/disorder), it can be legally broken up.
It's possible. There are a lot of independents that are "giving him some time." Even farmers, who have been decimated by Trump's policies, still favor him by a high percentage. Crazy? Yeah.
This! He always sends another to slaughter for his decisions before he gets to the "tell everyone I solved it," stage.
Here's hoping her personal phone wasn't in her bag... She might have had a classified chat open.
Wow! He managed to hold it right-side up that time! 👏
Thank you. This issue doesn't get as much attention as it should. Patel is just like Trump, who spent 15 million+ to show up at the Super Bowl & countless more to go home each weekend. Republicans are only "fiscally conservative" when it comes to programs that support the middle and lower classes.
How about we also get rid of subminimum wages for disabled workers, which is allowed under Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The act allows employers to pay employees with disabilities less than the minimum wage, often regardless of how well they do the job!
Oh, Jeez. Someone please make sure he doesn't watch The Real Housewives of name a place for next couple of weeks.
On your own personal phone, no less! Still, nothing will happen to him.
I believed Harris had better initiatives; more economists backed her for her policies for a reason. Trump was/is anti-union. There were many reasons to support Harris; we were talking about Gaza. With that said, "not that guy" is sometimes all you get. We get two options. I live in the real world.
Now, you are trying to shift to a different narrative? Pretty weak. You tried to defend your view and failed. Yes, there is a lesser evil. Yes, you have to vote for it, or the bigger evil wins. It is pretty basic. Now, I'm leaving, have things to do.
Because if you don't vote for one, the other one could (did) win!! That's the point! How do you not understand that? A vote for Harris would have kept Trump from winning- because millions of people will vote regardless.
