This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

Nero would be proud.

Oh, the irony πŸ˜‚β€”talk about paid protesters! MAGA has filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk in Pennsylvania, alleging he failed to pay individuals who gathered signatures for a petition during the 2024 presidential campaign.

Has the Supreme Court really become so woke that it's demanding an innocent man be returned from an El Salvador torture prison?

It's amazing that 78 million people were this stupid.

Sorry, troops. No mental health care or research funding for you.

You do, however, get to march in dear leader’s birthday party! You belong to him now and he will have great pleasure parading you around to show Kim Jong Un & Putin how strong he is.

Maybe he will even sit in a tank or something.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?

No one is safe β€” not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens.

Fascism is here.
