They need to do whatever it takes to stop Trump.

I think the USA is about to find out in real time just how bad the SCOTUS ruling that made Trump pretty much untouchable really was.

He can do whatever he wants, without consequences. Itโ€™s the LAW now.

America, girl, youโ€™re in so much trouble. Wake up for the love of Zeus wake up.

What a damn good season finale for #GildedAge. So pissed it's only an eight episode season, but they did such a great job with the finale. I did not cry, though, and you can't prove I did, when that one scene happened that I won't spoil. It was just... ugh... so sweet. Sooo sweet.

Phylicia Rashad plays a phenomenal villain in #GildedAge, mainly because it is easy to see her being a scheming, awful person after her support for Bill Cosby. Frankly, I don't buy her story that she didn't know, nor do I appreciate her approach to the issue on an ongoing basis.

"So we're getting this information from multiple sources [...] within the mayor's office and within Metro Police Department, that President Trump, come tomorrow, will deploy the National Guard along the streets of DC."

โ€˜The courts are helplessโ€™: Inside the Trump administrationโ€™s steady erosion of judicial power | CNN Politics Six months into Donald Trumpโ€™s second term, his administration is at war with the federal judiciary, evading court orders blocking its agenda, suing judges for alleged misconduct, and veering toward w...

Until the US media recognizes their country is WELL PAST the point of a mere 'constitutional crisis' they are destined to aid its transition to total fascism.

If you claim you were a hippie in the '60s and you spend all your time today railing about how woke young people are ruining the world, I have news for you: you were never a hippie. You were just cosplaying.

When the Americans get a real President again, hopefully all that shit can be scraped off and perhaps donated to a nursing home for retired drag queens OR, you know, melted down and used to benefit the many, many, many victims of the Trump Administration. #USPolitics

Seriously, #GildedAge, only eight episodes this season? That's crazy. I want a proper season! I can't believe we're only getting eight. Not cool.

The United States is broken. Canada is not, in spite of what Pierre Poilievre says. The Conservatives in Canada are broken.

Seth MacFarlane Says TV Shows Have Gotten Too โ€˜Pessimisticโ€™ and โ€˜Dystopianโ€™: โ€˜Give People Hopeโ€™ Seth MacFarlane says popular TV shows are too 'pessimistic' and 'dystopian.'

He's not wrong, but that the message is coming from the same man who made "comedy" out of a character that was clearly a pedophile on Family Guy is a bit hollow. He should look in the mirror. Despite that, I agree Hollywood needs to rethink the antihero obsession. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Being aligned with one of the most notorious child sex traffickers wasn't the "unforgivable sin", which is itself shocking and says so very much about conservatives.

He's not wrong. The whole "corporate speak" thing has always reminded me of the creepiest manifestations of evangelical religion.

How Kentucky bourbon went from boom to bust Tariffs, oversupply and teetotaling Gen-Zs have all contributed to the downfall of one of America's most iconic liquors.

The @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social completely missed the reason why the Kentucky Bourbon industry is tanking, their largest market, Canada, is boycotting their products and we aren't going back.

the wild thing about Cuomo is that he *literally* resigned in disgrace, and then after that launched some kind of delusional redemption narrative that makes no sense

Canadiansโ€™ opinions of the U.S. and its president are at or near historic lows About a third of Canadians (34%) have a favorable opinion of the United States today. This is down 20 percentage points since last year.

โ€œBut a 59% majority of Canadians also name the U.S. as their countryโ€™s top threat. Most Canadians who say this perceive the U.S. as a great deal of a threat to their countryโ€™s economy (77%), and 53% say it is a great deal of a threat to their national securityโ€

I have had religious pitches and the bikini women, too. I am pretty openly gay so I find that a little dumb and lazy. They could at least try sending me a fake but hot tattooed body builder. That would at least make sense!

When my mom hit the serious stages of Alzheimers, her expression changed. Her face changed. Connectedness left her eyes. And something weird and blank took its place. Disconnected. Confusion. At first intermittent, then always. I swear to you I now see it in HIS face. It's unmistakable.

So many troll accounts here now. Seems the favourite scam now is to list a number of users and then attach a meme. I honestly see it and block. Don't care who. It gets a block. Also... I am not buying these Gaza fundraising accounts with two followers. It's fucking gross.

@crockett.house.gov: "They pledge their fealty to some idiot who's obviously struggling mentally. Whether it's mental decline or whether he's ever had the capacity, they decided they're going to do whatever he wants them to do..

This takes her absurdity to a whole new level. She reminds me of every other whacky housewife neighbour from an 80s sitcom. And that hair just proves the gays hate her.
