Everyone has to know there's not a chance in hell any bank anywhere is going to hand out "Trump Cards" at 10% interest. Not like Trump has a way to put up the money to back that up. Either this way he can blame the big banks for hurting avg ppl, or another grift is coming. He's just shifting blame.

Just an update to Otis's vet visit. He's in good health, although they would like him to lose a few lbs, which I expected. His teeth are in good shape, but he does have the start of gingivitis and some plaque, so cleaning sched. Thank you again to all who helped!! pic of him hanging at the vet. ❤️

Tina Davis, who modeled for Ford in the mid-1990s, said in an interview that her Ford booker instructed her to get dressed up and attend a Mar-a-Lago party in late 1994. Just 14 and new to Miami, she was told to “dress sexy,” according to her mother, Sandra Coleman, who had accompanied her to Florida. Eight or nine other models came along on the bus. “All the girls were really young,” Ms. Coleman recalled in an interview. “Some of them could have been in training bras.” When they arrived at Mar-a-Lago, Ms. Coleman said, her daughter was promptly handed a glass of champagne. She took it away, but waiters kept offering more. Each time one of the middle-aged men at the party approached her daughter, Ms. Coleman would walk over and introduce herself as Ms. Davis’s mother. During a trip to the bathroom, they ran into Mr. Trump’s new wife, whom they had met earlier. Ms. Maples clasped her hands, Ms. Coleman recalled, and looked her in the eye. “Whatever you do, do not let her around any of these men, and especially my husband,” she told Ms. Coleman. “Protect her.”

These are the people who are willing to go on the record.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

URGENT: My cat needs dental surgery. We are facing a poss $2000 bill that I can't afford.
Binky has infection (bleeding, drooling) and is in pain. I'm unemployed due to my own health issues and have no savings for this emergency. She is family and I can't lose her. GFM in profile. Pls like and share

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

“They came into the building understanding it was a daycare. They did not have a warrant. It is a violation of our rights. It is a violation of these children’s rights. They are terrorizing our community.”

Trump’s ICE goons raided a damn daycare.

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Of course.

They just wanted him afraid. That was the only reason for this. To scare him into leaving on his own.

Oh I'm sure this will go over well.

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

Gods I am so tired of these stories. I don't know a woman without some form of one. The worse the disease, the longer it takes for a diagnosis. By then, women are lucky if the prognosis isn't drastically worse than if they had been listened to in the first place. Four years for me to get MS dx.

I don't understand why he keeps bragging about acing a test that people without cognitive issues are expected to "ace."

I'd be impressed if he took the citizenship test and aced that. Course we can't believe a thing from this admin so...

Per the DOJ's own webpage too.

Mark Cuban posts: Want to use rich people like me to your advantage? Incent us to help those who need it the most. Lower corp taxes for comps that pay a min of $25 per hour. Lower corp taxes if employees get stock at the same pct as the CEO. Bottom up incentives work. Dems never innovate. They bitch marthapearce55.bsky.social replies: You have more money than God. But you want incentives to do good, moral things?

Silhouetted cypress rise from the lake at sunrise. There is space between the trees, allowing for a view of much of the sky - a sky that glows with soft purple, gray, and orange hues as the first light breaks the horizon and is mirrored on the water's surface.

FBI agents are not trained to patrol streets. And every agent that is assigned to do that is NOT investigating:

*foreign spies stealing gov’t and trade secrets
*foreign and domestic terrorist threats
*crimes like fraud, corruption, trafficking, and violent crimes (among others)

Do you feel safer?

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

And then that guy was "silenced" forever.

And now we will just not talk about anything else until they...
