A decade from now this is how Bondi will be remembered. Akin to when other politicians sealed their fate.

That kind of openly vindictive use of the federal purse undercuts trust in the department, invites lawsuits the government is likely to lose, and wastes time and money that could have gone to making roads safer.

Another example of administrative incompetence. A competent administration uses federal programs to improve safety and infrastructure for everyone. Duffy says that blue states will be punished because they do not treat immigrants the way he wants: partisan retaliation, not neutral enforcement.

Let me say this about that: Duffy can’t do what he’s threatening.
Duffy’s claim that he can β€œpull their money” amounts to asserting a personal veto over appropriations β€œpassed by Congress and signed into law,” which is a textbook separation‑of‑powers violation if attempted.

I hear trump's approval ratings are down 400%, 500%, even 600%

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was β€œunanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

I want that legroom back.
And hot meals.
And a blanket.
And no center seats.

Republicans aren’t even pretending anymore.
Mike Collins’ Senate campaign just used an AI deepfake to mimic Jon Ossoff because apparently the GOP needs fake Democrats when the real ones keep beating them at the ballot box.

If they’ll fabricate a candidate, what won’t they fake?

This isn't fateβ€”it's a choice. If Americans don't fight for fair taxation, strong unions, and robust public programs, we'll stay trapped in a rigged system that rewards wealth over work and keeps poverty alive.

Why? Years of policies that favor the already-rich, gut worker protections, and let corporations write the rules. The wealthiest pass fortunes down, while everyone else faces skyrocketing costs and shredded safety nets.

Staggering, but true: the richest country on Earth has created massive poverty while a tiny elite hoard wealth. Wages are stuck, costs are up, and millions work full-time only to stay poor.

If anti-fascism is now terrorism, does that mean being pro-fascism is a government-approved lifestyle choice? That’s like saying: β€œFire is bad, so from now on, water is illegal.”

The reality is antifa has about as much structure as a bowl of spaghetti. No leader, no office, no batcave. Declaring it a terrorist group is less a security measure and more a sign that someone tried to fight an abstract nounβ€”and lost.

It seems to me that if the testimony from females is a hoax, they should release the files to PROVE IT'S A HOAX.

This image appears to be manipulated and is not an authentic photograph. The apparent mismatched proportions and lighting between the hat, shirt, and background are typical of digitally altered or staged images.

As others have pointed out, it's the fringe groups using trump as their excuse to terrorize civilians, just like ICE raids. Here are some:

A terrorist organization is generally defined as a group that uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, for political aims. There is no evidence that the Heritage Foundation engages in, finances, or advocates for violence, unlawful acts, or threats to human life.

Everyone can see similarities with the Ukraine "negotiation" in items 1,2, and 3 at least.

Example of trump's negotiated end: Afghanistan
1. Sidelined Afghan Government
2. Concessions Without Gains
3. Weak Counterterror Provisions
4. Released Hardened Taliban Fighters

Weak negotiations collapsed Afghanistan's government government and the rapid Taliban takeover following U.S. withdrawal

links immigration directly to the β€œerosion” of culture and social cohesion, ignores the principle that dissent, protest, and calls for reform are part of our patriotic tradition, lies the Right β€œbuilds” while the Left β€œdestroys,” that only conservative policies have delivered prosperity and unity.

alongside a deeper American tradition of dissent and reform that makes the United States resilient and dynamic.

Vance’s speech relies on caricatures, rhetorical exaggeration, and selective analysis of voting blocs to paint a negative image of Democratic politics and urban voters. Real pluralism, issue-based organizing, and positive policy vision is present in Democratic movementsβ€”
