"What the fuck man?"
"Fuck you, motherfucker"

Haven’t been consistently here. After deleting Twitter I vowed to stay off if not delete FB & Insta. How the heck can I cut the social media cord!!! FB has become a cesspool of divisive rhetoric and hate. Insta, I haven’t even looked. Again, I hope to become more familiar here. Ideas appreciated!

Raskin: "Speaker Johnson described the exercise of 1st Amendment rights across the country by 6 or 7 millions Americans as part of No Kings as a 'Hate America Rally.' The Hate America Rally happened on January 6 ... there were more than 140 police officers who were wounded."

Ignore all laws about altering historic properties ✅
Pave over Rose Garden for tacky Mar-A-Lardo Patio ✅
Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅
Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅

#Ugh🤢✅

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

AZ AG Mayes: We have people in Arizona who are being actively harmed by Mike Johnson playing politics and apparently trying to protect the Epstein files. That’s not okay. We’re going to fight as hard as we can to put an end to it and to get Adelita Grijalva sworn in.

Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

If I were ever elected president, the first thing I’d do is take a sledgehammer to that ballroom.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Trump’s delusional if he thinks this ends with Bubba from Oklahoma landing a tech job. Tech firms will just move operations overseas to reach top-tier talent.

📌 After Trump slapped a $100K fee on new visas, several passengers bailed minutes before takeoff, afraid they couldn’t get back into the US.

Gupta: The impacts of this—H-1B visas—are going to show up once Trump is out of office.

If fewer people are able to take those jobs, what happens? We’re just not going to have enough people to meet the demand for medical services..

And the irony here is it’ll probably impact red states more

I have been away from here & let fb suck me back in. I swore off and deleted twitter but still need to delete insta & fb. Fb is difficult because of the number of years & some of the connections I have made. But still every time I get on it I end up frustrated because it’s full of hate & lies.

With remarks on Charlie Kirk’s death, Trump flunks yet another leadership test If we’re going to do something about political violence, it’s going to take responsible leadership. The president has yet to provide that leadership.

In 2018, after one of his followers targeted several Democrats with mail bombs, Trump was asked whether this might lead to a shift in his tone.

“Tone down?” he replied. “No. Could tone up.”

This came to mind anew last night, as he flunked yet another leadership test.

I didn’t post this last night because it felt so surreal. I needed to sleep on it, but I still feel the same.

They’re talking about a white nationalist as if he was a saint. Flags lowered because, why?

The right is leveraging a murder to blame Dems.

Jesse Watters is convincing Fox viewers the killer was a liberal. Based on what? The chyron says “assassin still on the loose” as he speaks.

Trump dropped a video too, blaming the left with zero evidence.

The goal is violence. And it’s coordinated.

When public media disappears, so do the stories that bring us together.

With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection.

Kerr County officials waited 90 minutes to send emergency alert after requested, dispatch audio shows Kerr County officials waited 90 minutes to send emergency alert after requested, dispatch audio shows.

"At 4:22am on Friday, as Texas' Hill Country began to flood, a firefighter in Ingram – just upstream from Kerrville – asked the Kerr County Sheriff's Office to alert nearby residents. But Kerr County officials took nearly six hours to heed this call."

Yes, incredible. 🙄

Piers Morgan calls out Alina Habba for hyping Epstein files that never materialized ‘We have flight logs, we have information, names that will come out,’ Alina Habba said in February, adding that multiple people would be face prosecution for their involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.

I think we all know why they are saying there’s no list now. Guess who’s all over it and in lots of pictures and videos?

Maga backlash over ‘botched’ Jeffrey Epstein investigation

During last year’s election, Trump said he would have “no problem” releasing more files related to Epstein if he returned to the White House

"The U.S. media must draw a line in the sand: Surrender no more."

Trump announces tariffs of at least 25 percent on Japan, South Korea Financial markets are on edge about higher import taxes, but White House officials say they anticipate “a lot of deals very quickly.”

The Trump administration’s 90-day pause on tariffs that Trump rolled out in April is set to lift Wednesday, though White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said an upcoming executive order would delay that date to Aug. 1.
