Hound them all out: speak out, protest, & march every chance you get! 🇺🇸

Today, we are again seeing such whims of a very vain and stupid man who has no coherent world view.
A tweet by Devin Duke (@sirDUKEdevin ) reads, "The Toronto Star showing US newspapers how it’s done. " The accompanying photo shows a hand holding a copy of the Toronto Star newspaper. The front page headline in large, bold letters states, "TRUMP LAUNCHES GOLDEN AGE OF STUPID." Below the headline is a photo of Donald Trump raising his fist, wearing a suit with a red tie. The newspaper includes various articles and subheadings, such as "U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest binge..." and "BRUCE ARTHUR," with smaller text detailing political commentary. The publication date on the newspaper is "Saturday, April 8, 2025," and the section is labeled "NEWS A21."
The press is alive and well up north.

But courage is also contagious.
Idiot! We are in free fall!

Trump bankrupts everything he touches. Now, it’s each American’s financial security! Shame on anyone who supports this dangerous, chaotic, and pathetic excuse for a leader.

Trump's shocking project to relocate federal agencies away from the National Capital Region is designed to dismantle the government itself.
Let's stop them before they put the White House in Moscow to be closer to the home office.
Of course Kristi Noem would send migrants to a hell hole El Salvador prison. Remember what she did to her own dog. Heartless and cruel!

Public sector workers in democracies fought fascism and genocide. In totalitarian states, some went along with totalitarian crimes; some resisted. What kind of “public sector worker” will Elon Musk be? www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...

Symphony orchestra audiences aren't known for their rowdiness, but the Vice President and Second Lady Usha Vance were loudly booed by the crowd as they entered the Concert Hall Thursday night.

Federal employees being fired is illegal "under any statute in the history of the universe."
Don't you love it when the rule of law comes together!

Elon Musk Fact-Checked by his own AI platform Grok! What an embarrassment this “genius” is.
For my full statement and questions posed to Mr. Musk, see below.
But for my support of its great writers and this being my hometown paper, I would cancel WAPO now too. Totally understand the national response from former subscribers. On the cusp!
28.02.2025 19:49 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0One of the very most disgraceful things I have ever seen in my decades in Washington. Shame on Trump-Vance and their despicable, very dangerous, and amateur-hour tactics! Thank you, Chris, for calling it like it is.
28.02.2025 19:03 — 👍 10 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0What we saw in the Oval Office today was beyond disgraceful. Trump and Vance berating Zelenskyy — putting on a show of lies and misinformation that would make Putin blush — is an embarrassment for America and a betrayal of our allies.
They're popping champagne in the Kremlin.
