As always, their accusations are confessions. They've been accusing others of pay-to-play for years.

He's not scary. That he has the nuclear codes and commands the world's biggest military budget is. And the evil folks in his orbit, who know he's feeble and take advantage of him to get their evil deeds done, they scare me.

That's a classic conservative move. Take something cool that people like and make it stupid and boring.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

Most nights I do "bedtime yoga" where I try to ease into a spot on my side of the bed that isn't taken up by a cat, and get into sleeping pose, all without waking my spouse. Pets seem to know exactly where to settle in that causes you maximum inconvenience. But they're totally worth it.

And don't forget that while the government is shut down, economic numbers aren't being released.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This is what happens when you live in a bubble and everyone you know thinks exactly like you. You don't think people's lives are being ruined by authoritarian thugs. It's just entertainment you see on Fox News and worthy of a silly joke.

Because when you don't know what's real anymore, 2 + 2 can equal 5.

There’s always a tweet

Are we gonna find out that her plane went down over Epstein's Island?

Gov is shutdown. Let’s see who picks it up this time 🤣

Who's radical? Schumer? Jeffries?!

We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

I used to live in Utah and saw the protests near the Mormon temple. So that also was the first thing I thought. But they'll say it was a leftist, anti-Christian attack and their audience will believe it without question.

I _think_ the North Carolina mass shooter this weekend was also an Iraq veteran. I think the facts there are pretty sketchy right now though.

Ideology only matters if it's a liberal one. If it's a conservative one, it becomes a mental health issue.

I think of that scene in Andor where they start singing the Ghorman anthem.

It's possible, but super unlikely. The president is declaring war on half the country for made up reasons. Most of the other half thinks it's justified. Where do we go from here?

And when you try to explain to them how bad things are, they either get defensive or turtle up and say that politics is too stressful and they want less news.

^^ this. The people who didn't get the memo that democracy is mostly gone are either blissfully ignorant, or they watch Fox News on purpose.

But Fanta Face said they shut him down because no one watches him?

How does it? That's an honest question. We don't yet know the motive of Kirk's killer.

It's a new Gilded Age.

Democrats need to rent out an arena for the next black man tragically shot by a cop and make sure NBC airs the memorial like it’s the DNC

Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

I love this idea, positioning soldiers who won WW2 as antifa. I hope it helps some folks realize some things.

Yikes. ♥️

Bingo.
