We did this to ourselves www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/w...
The United States had one of the worst COVID outcomes in the entire world from a body count standpoint. Anyone who argues with a straight face we were TOO cautious is an unserious imbecile.
No.
And Mitch McConnell.
He is 100 times more presidential than the felon in the White House plastering his face all over the place...
What a bunch of spineless suck-ups!
Bringing it closer to home for him, does he not recall that guns killed his father and uncle….not anti-depressants? What a self-centered and absolute moron. No wonder his own family has denounced him as a crackpot.
Promise tariffs ⟶ faff around ⟶ announce tariffs ⟶ pause tariffs ⟶ promise deals ⟶ court rules tariffs illegal ⟶ appeal ⟶ court order stayed ⟶ make no deals ⟶ 90 days expires ⟶ delay tariffs again ⟶ announce tariffs again ⟶ appeals court rules tariffs illegal again ⟶ you are here

We are not planning to just let this happen. We are not willing to base our patient care on ideology or conspiracy theories. We can prescribe anything we want, but if it is not covered, or pharmacists can’t give, we will see more illness more hospitalizations, more death.
What a creep.
💯. A complete nut job.
DOGE wasn’t a cost-cutting venture. It was a data mining operation for private interests. Trump opened the gates to the castle from inside for invaders with bad and greedy intent to plunder and exploit.
So, a live Ashli Babbitt would not be welcomed in Hegseth's armed forces, but in death she gets a full Air Force funeral. Wow. To paraphrase Apocalypse Now, "The bullshit piles up so high in America, you need wings to rise above it."💩
LanaQuest aka RosaSparks So dead Ashli Babbitt is now going to receive a full U.S. Air Force funeral for breaking into the Capitol and trying to attack lawmakers all in an effort to overthrow an election.
Shameful!
Oh look. And y’all let that white supremacist “genius” take a chainsaw to our government. Brilliant.
the founders envisioned a madman potentially becoming president what the founders did not envision was the majority of Congress and the Supreme Court becoming part of a cult of personality around said president. it’s both pathetic and horrifying
More like the world’s foremost quack.
Good.
Lol what a blessing for her constituents.
There's been ton of time spent by a lot of folks defending or criticizing Gavin Newsom's mocking and trolling of our ersatz president. Here's a take I hadn't seen yet. Have a listen. #GavinNewsom #whiteprivilege
Another moron has spoken.
💯 He has some bogus theory for everything, when the answers are totally clear to any normal person. What a moron.
I can’t stand his fat, smug face and manner. Another dope in a never-ending list of dopes.
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his historic I Have A Dream speech at the March on Washington 62 years ago today. Today and every day, we honor him and all those who demanded an end to racial segregation when they marched all those years ago. Our fight is far from over and we're not slowing down.
💯
🎯 An absolute quack.
Yes, it should. However, that would require an effective mainstream media in America — which we don’t currently have.
pritzker so far is the only one out of them who sounds like he understands what comes after extralegal military occupation of hostile urban centers
RFK Jr is truly a crackpot.
Good to see the administration laser-focused on the economy and other topics that actually matter to most people and their families. So dumb.
RUSSIA. STARTED. THE. WAR. YOU. LUNATIC.
What a creep. Only the best and the brightest for this administration.
Reminder 1: Ukraine didn't go into war. Russia forced them into war by invading Ukraine. Reminders 2-10: Trump is still a moron.
Make Sure Everyone Knows 😊💙 HOLY S**T look at this: Florida GOP Senator Rick Scott just quietly disclosed stock trades a year late – worth $26 MILLION – on companies HE LEGISLATED. 😳 This is corrupt to its core, and he's hoping no one will notice. You know what to do.
I will never forget.
"I" gave the Governor of Maryland money? I'm pretty sure those were taxpayer dollars. Your money. My money. Not King Trump's money.
My name is Josh Turek. I'm a two-time Paralympic gold medalist. I'm a proud State Legislator from Council Bluffs who represents the reddest seat held by a Democrat in Iowa. And I'm the guy who's going to beat Joni Ernst. Repost this, give us a follow, and let’s win together.

I am really begging media and Dems and political commentators: Recognize that key quality of the modern GOP is radicalism and extremism. This is arguably the most radical government in US history. Stop letting them claim the mantle of conservativism. There’s nothing conservative about this.
WHY IS THE GOVERNMENT OF MY COUNTRY HELLBENT ON TORTURING THIS MAN
The government is disposing of a witness.
I swear to God that every single person involved with ICE needs to (at minimum) spend several years in jail. This is fucking gross.
Chairman Mao touts his state-run economy
Trump is mentally ill and needs treatment. I say this as a mental health professional who is concerned about a person who appears to be a danger - if not to himself (because he is so closely watched) - then to others
What could possibly go wrong?
Corrupting economic statistics will change our economic reality. Here's how: Tariffs raise prices. Social Security is indexed to inflation. If Trump tells a partisan BLS head to downplay inflation, seniors' social security checks won't keep up. Rigged stats = stolen benefits.
lol. Big surprise. Hahaha.
Barack Obama has offered his approval to Democrats’ mid-decade redistricting attempts, praising Gov. Gavin Newsom’s bid to reapportion California’s House districts as a “responsible approach.”
If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.
Trump is a delusional narcissist unfit to be president and the unwillingness of the American political system to say the obvious has literally brought our nation to its knees.
lol. Would he even pass the Presidential fitness test? He looks pretty lost at the Gym.
Also, and not for nothing, they depend on the rule of law, too.
Trump must have had a bad night. Spewing lies about elections. Again. Every American citizen has a right to vote, Each state runs its own election. We don’t owe the president. It’s the president who owes us a duty to take care that the laws are faithfully executed. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...
Trump deserves a Nobel Piece Prize for his steadfast efforts to give Putin pieces of Ukraine. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...
Say it load and say it clear!!!! Wake up people!!!
If the President were to ask for my economic advice...
Unbelievable. The shame for America continues.
Headline that could have been written months ago:
What has he got to lose? He has no shame and everyone caves eventually.
Why not just not interview Navarro anymore?
Can’t get enough of the trolling lol “GAVIN NEWSOM (MANY SAY THE MOST LOVED & HANDSOME GOVERNOR) AND A VERY POWERFUL TEAM. DON'T MAKE US DO IT!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.”
There is absolutely no shame in MAGA-world.
Former chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under Obama👇👇
Disgusting.
Yeah, we won’t be trusting any info put out by the “Heritage” Bureau of Labor Statistics Department.
Hahahahaha. Morons!
From @juddlegum.bsky.social : “Hegseth is a member of a church that is part of Wilson's network, the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC), in Tennessee.” Wild that the Sunday shows ignored Hegseth promoting stripping the right to vote from Women. open.substack.com/pub/populari...
This, of course, comes after Tim Cook personally donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund. Since then Apple has received tariff exemptions. We're witnessing blatant crony capitalism. www.theverge.com/news/737757/...
The President should stick to stuffing his face with cheese burgers and watching reruns of the The Real Housewives of Orange County. He has absolutely no concept of diplomacy.
Apple doll face.
lol. Big effing surprise….
Shameful!
Cartoon by Walt Handelsman.
“Americans, now and in the future, will be paying more and buying less. Trump’s second-term economic ideology is not only one of protectionism, mercantilism, atavism, and cronyism. It is also one of degrowth.”
Trump's tariffs are no longer a negotiating threat, they're a reality that'll reshape our lives.
Seems Mike Johnson has been using campaign funds to pay his rent in DC, which is a major legal no no. www.rawstory.com/mike-johnson...
Not qualified for anything else lol
Priorities.
Ken Paxton is the most corrupt Attorney General in Texas history. This malignant clown was impeached by his own party. He has ZERO credibility on issues of law and order. Pipe down.
What an attention-demanding doofus. So dumb.
lol. Just when you think it can’t get any dumber….
Kill me
Another reality TV moron.
What a creep!
Okay, *now you can start to worry about data being manipulated.
Firing the BLS Commissioner — the wonk in charge of the statisticians who track economic reality — is an authoritarian four alarm fire. It will also backfire: You can't bend economic reality, but you can break the trust of markets. And biased data yields worse policy.

And we're officially at the end of being able to trust the jobs numbers in this country ever again.
He looks like the kid who wrangles the miniature pigs after at the local county fair.
Would we expect anything different from the King of Tacky? How absolutely dreadful.
Leaving his tacky legacy at the Whitehouse. Where do the cash registers go?
