Kinda wild to me that explorers were looking for India and got it wrong, so they called the native Americans already inhabiting the land Indians and started a centuries-long racial slur that exists openly to this day

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

So, not to be a cynical millennial, but I don’t actually believe Netanyahu has any plan to stop attacking Palestine. He told Trump he would so he could get hostages back from Hamas. His plans will continue, as usual, just like every time he has told Trump one thing and done the opposite

Check out the newest member of our family, Cappuccino the Huskita. He got off his leash and put an entire elementary school on lockdown Monday

I love my parents. I really do. But they are classic Boomers who only share their money when they see fit and celebrate themselves more than anyone else. As the country is burning and the govt is shut down, they are on a cruise.

Anyone who is surprised by the revengeful behavior of the POTUS has not been paying attention.
Why was he allowed to run for POTUS again anyways? Because the SCOTUS came him permission.
I wonder what would have happened if Obama had let an insurrection?

I say we take away taxpayer-funded health care from members of Congress and see what kind of shutdown they’re willing to stage when their coverage is on the line. Maybe then they’d stop playing games with the ACA and the lives of millions of Americans.

I have stopped counting the number of time that TACO and the muskrat admitted out loud that they cheated the 2024 election.

The reason my party infuriates me is because the other side spent 4 years spreading lies about 2020,

while Dems refused to spend even 4 minutes investigating what

Why did the GOP shut down the government? Oh, that’s rightβ€”because Fat Satan demanded it.

I know it’s fun to point out that the generals didn’t clap for Hegseth, but the more important thing to focus on is that fact that they were called and all complied. This is a terrifying time for our country.

The president just told all of the military's leaders that all Democrats are evil and promised to send the full force of the military into Democratic cities to assault the "enemy within," and there's *still* a chance that Democratic congressmen provide the crucial votes to keep this regime running.

The American right has picked, or more accurately invented, enemies on the left: blue-haired baristas, β€œAntifa,” Soros. In the interest of equity, I’m declaring war on suburban Golf Guys, electricians with four poorly paid employees, and MAHA moms. That’s fair, I think.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

How is this a lie? He literally made the announcement today. If I am misunderstanding, please explain it to me

So, now our own government is attacking its citizens and declaring war against us?? Hello! @democraticpartyhq.bsky.social what are you guys doing in response?!

The Democratic Party is barely fighting for us during a time when fascism is overtaking America. Rules and regulations, committee meetings and retreats will NOT stop bad actors in power. This is not a time decorum. It’s time to fight for your country

Anyone else bothered that Congress gets to decide who gets Healthcare, financial aid, food assistance, debt relief, and access to a comfortable life?
Should our lives be decided by people who refuse to acknowledge what we have experienced?
Shouldn't we demand a system where our voices are heard?

That vile, racist AI video Trump dropped last night made it loud and clear: he has zero interest in stopping the shutdown, so the countdown continues.

This is Trump’s shutdown!
