Easy. The banks did. And the GOP did their bidding.

Trump just pulled Elise Stefanik’s nomination for UN Ambassador because he’s worried about her district flipping blue in a special election.

Her district voted for Trump by *20%.*

They know how deeply unpopular they have become.

From SCAD Savannah Film Festival to The Oscars: It was impressive to me that SCAD had the foresight to have already honored Mikey Madison, Kieran Culkin, Zoe Saldana, and Paul Tazewell at the 2024 Savannah Film Festival. The curators of the festival continue to impress! #TheOscars2025

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

NO OTHER LAND directors.

One of the co-directors of NO OTHER LAND, Hamdan Ballal was beaten by Israeli settlers and seized by Israeli soldiers from the ambulance Ballal called, per co-director Yuval Abraham. No one knows where Ballal is. (Ballal is second from right in the below photo.)

Why would thousands of international athletes and millions of fans from around the world come to a country where tourists, asylum seekers, and visa holders are being disappeared to foreign prisons?" Both accounts have blue checkmarks. Rothschild's profile picture shows a person in a suit.

A tweet from Tim Walz (@Tim_Walz) reads, "Pete Hegseth texting out war plans like invites to a frat party." Below is a screenshot of a tweet from The Atlantic (@TheAtlantic) stating that American war planning usually takes place in secure facilities, but the Trump administration planned strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor.

a president who gave an actual shit about national security would have fired Hegseth on the spot — and a Secretary of Defense who cared about his own integrity would have resigned before Donny had the chance to fire him.

that’s Donny’s Confederacy of Sewer Clowns for you. not one of them was hired for their expertise — or their integrity. they’re all a bunch of incompetent ideologues and toadies who fuck up spectacularly on a daily basis — and as long as they keep kissing Dear Leader’s ass, not one of them will ever face accountability.

I’m no expert, but it’s looking more and more like hiring a bunch of Fox News pinheads and putting them in charge of agencies for which they have absolutely no skills or experience is the worst fucking way in the world to run a government.

because here’s what happens when you do that: a bunch of them start casually texting each other about how they’re going to bomb the shit out of Yemen, like they were planning a neighborhood cookout.

Pete’s in charge of bringing the kegs.

let’s all jawdrop in awe as Donny Convict’s so-called ‘economic advisor’ Kevin Hassett grabs reality by the haunches and gives it a vigorous clownfucking.

Kevin says he’s seen photos of secret Canadian drug labs that law enforcement — and by extension, the Canadian government — are allowing to operate.

do you see what’s happening here? we’re being lied into some kind of conflict with Canada. it’s Saddam Hussein and the fictitious weapons of mass destruction all over again.

Donny has sided with Russia every step of the way. and we all seem to have forgotten that Donny got impeached for trying to extort Zelensky by threatening to hold up arms shipments until Ukraine announced a fake investigation into Joe Biden. thanks, Donny. thank you so much. you’re amazing. we’re all in your debt.
