Please check out this thread below with videos of Trump’s absolutely pathetic parade. Honestly much worse (for him) than I expected. It’s pretty fucking hilarious!

No worries, guys, they moved coverage of 5 million people marching in every American city down even further to make room for the president's birthday parade that nobody went to.

has that dude had his little birthday boy tank man parade yet? it’s hard to tell because the only thing the news is showing right now is how much people around the country hate him

Dude's wanted a military parade for himself for years and he finally makes it happen and turnout is worse than at a medium sized city's farmers market on a rainy day while like 2% of the entire country went out to protest his bullshit

This is fewer people on the mall than a typical summer saturday

Donald Trump does NOT want you to share this footage of his pathetically tiny birthday parade crowd.

LA #NoKings!

Mt Trashmore

Minnesota State Capitol. Stay safe out there. 💙💪
#NoKings

The contrasting images of a DC ghost town/military parade and 1800 American cities and towns with well-attended protests is going to drive Trump batty.

A few hundred Americans of all ages standing in dappled sun with flags and signs

Hello from Berlin where a few hundred Americans are outside the embassy, currently reading aloud from the Declaration of Independence. #nokings

Death of a Cybertruck Salesman: How Trump Killed Tesla Schadenfreude is a bargain at $5.60 per mile.

The anti-Tesla movement is one of the most successful cases of social coordination in American history. In the span of six months the Tesla brand has been made radioactive.

This isn’t a subjective view. You can see it in the data.

Trump 2.0 is a good time to stop overspending, consuming, and shopping for shopping's sake. Thrifting and upcycling's gonna make a comeback. Sitting on my hands, as a treat.

Poll: Trump loses trust on the economy as 100-day mark nears Most Americans now express opposition to Trump's tariffs and little confidence in his economic leadership, a shift since the election.

"As Trump approaches the 100-day marker of his second term, nearly 6 in 10 disapprove of the tariffs he has imposed, while their predictions about what's ahead in the economy have darkened."

Laura Ingraham’s Angry Rants at Dem on Fox Reveal MAGA’s Dark Endgame An Arizona Democratic Congresswoman shoved the Fox host’s talking points back in her face Tuesday night. Why can’t more Democrats do that?

Everyone should watch @repyassansari.bsky.social speaking truths about Abrego Garcia to Laura Ingraham last night. She told Fox viewers *five times* that Trump is defying SCOTUS and that his renditions are illegal/authoritarian, which they never hear.

Let’s talk about a civic uprising What does that mean? How do we get there?

The increased media attention to anti-Trump protests signifies a growing recognition that we are in a period of civic unrest – that the public rejection of the Trump/Musk agenda is going to be a big part of the American story in the coming months. www.headsupnews.org/p/lets-talk-...

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while:

@dgraham.bsky.social’s new book, “The Project,” is a topic-by-topic guide to Project 2025—and how the Trump administration is using it to remake America.

He’s answering your questions on Reddit at 1:30 p.m. ET about what Americans could expect to see as a result: www.reddit.com/r/politics/c...

So basically the position of the Trump Admin is if Ukraine doesn’t agree to all of Putin’s demands, and hand over their power plants and mineral rights to the US, then they don’t want peace so we should walk away from them.

Noem is a fucking evil psycho.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”

He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”

Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Marriott still has my business.

Couldn’t have happened to a more despicable sociopath.

A headline from the website Gothamist: "4-year-old migrant girl, other kids go to court in NYC with no lawyer: 'The cruelty is apparent' In a May 2022 file photo, unaccompanied migrant minors deported from Mexico wait to eat a meal at a shelter in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. They were rescued and deported while trying to reach the United States. JOHAN ORDONEZ/AFP via Getty Images By Arya Sundaram Published Apr 22, 2025 at 11:01 a.m. ET 101 comments

Text from the Gothamist article, "4-year-old migrant girl, other kids go to court in NYC with no lawyer: 'The cruelty is apparent'." Paragraphs from the article read: "'The reason we’re here is because the government of the United States wants you to leave the United States,' Judge Ubaid ul-Haq, presiding from a courtroom on Varick Street, told a group of about a dozen children on a recent morning on Webex. 'It’s my job to figure out if you have to leave,' ul-Haq continued. 'It’s also my job to figure out if you should stay.' The parties included a 7-year-old boy, wearing a shirt emblazoned with a pizza cartoon, who spun a toy windmill while the judge spoke. There was an 8-year-old girl and her 4-year-old sister, in a tie-dye shirt, who squeezed a pink plushy toy and stuffed it into her sleeve. None of the children were accompanied by parents or attorneys, only shelter workers who helped them log on to the hearing."

The fact that we're allowing this as a society makes me want to burn everything to the ground. There are many such inhumanities in our world, of course, but to think of little children struggling like this just brings out a rage I cannot properly articulate.
