Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

It’s FUKKKING tiring already!

The NFL removed the ‘end racism’ text from their endzones once Trump got elected, in a clear nod to the notion that racism won.

Do we even have laws anymore?

About the presidency, Harry Truman famously said “the buck stops here.” Trump is trying to pass the buck and blame everybody but his administration for the DC plane crash. This is a time for consoling the families and investigating the cause of this tragedy, not shameful finger pointing.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Once Pitched a Deadly Human Vaccine Experiment Revelations about the role he played in a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa keep getting worse.

Footage from last year is now resurfacing of Trump promising to “end inflation” starting on “day one.”

Hanging in there? It's been a week!

People with eyes: "Elon Musk make a Nazi salute."

Historians who have studied the rise of fascism: "Elon Musk made a Nazi salute."

Mainstream Media: "Elon Musk made a heartfelt gesture that was misconstrued as a Nazi salute."

Trump has still not introduced a single plan or policy to lower grocery prices.

But he is taking action on day one to raise prices.

No famous person has an automatic right to our attention. They have no right to loyalty that ignores bad behavior.

Consequences are hard, huh?

Brave yourselves for more of the like.

The richest man on Earth is a drug-addict Nazi with an office in The White House.

What are you going to do about it?

Trump's right hand man (literally) just casually giving the Nazi salute... twice.

Holy shit. Look at this Nazi c%t. In the United States of America.
