So it would seem.

Trump Promised to ‘Drill, Baby, Drill.’ The New Rigs Are Nowhere to Be Found With clean energy more cost-competitive than it once was, the White House’s oil-first strategy is faltering.

Trump's promise to "drill, baby, drill" has led to less drilling.

One culprit: tariffs

“The Liberation Day chaos and tariff antics have harmed the domestic energy industry. ‘Drill, baby, drill’ will not happen with this level of volatility.”

Another Trump promise he will never fulfill.

In the midst of Trump's Epstein scandal, it's easy to forget about his concentration camps.

AP — The U.S. government is building an immense 5,000-person detention camp in west Texas, government contract announcements said.

TXGOP = cheating and intimidation

They “invite” the public to testify against their rigged gerrymandering, praying for a moment like this.

But they chose the wrong man.
@isaiahrmartin.bsky.social is a beloved Texas leader!
What he’s NOT is trespassing, disrupting or resisting.

The Scottish press reacts to a visit by a felon.

Trump has actually been remarkably successful in implementing his agenda and at the six month mark he's hit a low point in Gallup approval ratings. That's because the agenda is fundamentally unpopular! Something we tried desperately hard to communicate in 2024.

It never ceases to amaze me how people who claim to follow Christ and are trying to get into heaven use some of the nastiest, most vile language I have ever heard.

They're gonna try and kiss Jesus with that mouth?

It's on-brand for Republicans.

He envisions a system of concentration camps — we've seen that movie before.

"Well, I think would like to see them in many states. Really, many states ... and, you know, at some point, they might morph into a system."

The concentration camp system in 1930s Germany was initially created to hold Communists, Socialists, gays, Catholics, people with disabilities, and people declared to be enemies of the Reich.
By the mid 1930s the focus shifted to Jews and anyone declared to be physically or mentally inferior.

For literally decades climate hawks and progressives have warned that internal combustion will die off and the tech of the future is electric + battery power and that if we didn’t seize the initiative China would eat our lunch and…welp!

By definition, Trump is establishing a system of concentration camps.

#FEMA Didn’t Answer Thousands of Calls From #Flood Survivors, Documents Show.

Two days after deadly #Texas floods, the agency struggled to answer calls from survivors because of call center contracts that weren’t extended. | NY Times 🎁 article www.nytimes.com/2025/07/11/c...

This was always the plan. Try anti-immigrant laws out in Alabama. Put in place enhanced requirements for voter ID. It’s why nothing under Trump has surprised people down here. I call it the Alabamization of America. Looking forward to reading this book!

Instead of immediately sending vital swift water rescue teams to Texas. Kristie Noem spent the weekend running online polls about what photo she should use for her official Governors photo.

Puppy Killer Kristie is now Child Killer Kristie

This disgusting POS allowed Texans to die

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?

Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.

She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.

Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

The Enabling Act of 1933 gave Hitler carte blanche to enact laws without parliament.
Precisely what Trump wants.

I’m sorry but shouldn’t it be an inviolable journalistic rule that if you’re writing about someone who calls himself “Big Balls,” that nickname must appear in the headline and the first graph? What happened to standards smh
