MAGA figures fuel idea of Derek Chauvin pardon Pardoning Chauvin would keep with MAGA's own-the-libs and anti-social justice mentality.

Prominent supporters of President Trump — led by Ben Shapiro — are fueling a major push to pardon Derek Chauvin, the white former Minnesota police officer convicted of killing George Floyd in 2020.

The funniest part is an allegedly grown man talking this much trash while wearing a hat that says PROUD BOYS.

It’s like thumping your chest in a t-shirt that says I’M MOMMY’S LIL STINKER

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia.

Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist.

Extraordinary.

Leon dumped his human shield.

“We fired all the guards at the bank so they’re not roadblocks to anything that happens.”

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social @richardblumenthal.bsky.social Dems need to do more of this. And tell Jahana Hayes to get on this platform please.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp' Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

Believing that Tulsi Gabbard — longtime Russian asset and newly confirmed Director of National Intelligence — is acting in the interests of the United States requires an extraordinary level of self-delusion.

Donald Trump illegally fired 19 inspectors general.

The law requires notice to Congress and a case-by-case justification. It is not optional.

Congress must convene a bipartisan hearing to examine these unlawful acts and how they can be remedied. Immediately.

Jacobs: It's so funny to me that my colleagues on the other side spent 30 minutes talking about how we don't want unelected bureaucrats making these rules when they're literally allowing a unelected Elon Musk run roughshod over congress' power of the purse

The ‘American First’ crowd is awfully quiet about Trump’s pledge to build free housing for 2 million Palestinians in some random country they don’t want to go to that also doesn’t want them. I’m sure this will all work out fine and that’s what people thought they were voting for.

Middle schoolers showing more guts and morality than Republicans in Congress.

Shuttering of USAID could mean the end of millions in income for Midwest farm operations Frozen by Elon Musk’s DOGE personnel, the USAID program purchased $70 million in commodities in 2024 from Minnesota vendors.

MN is proud to help feed the world (in fact, this program was created by Hubert Humphrey). Now not only is that in jeopardy, but millions of dollars in income for farmers is too? Disgusting.

This food, which we’ve already paid for, is waiting on ships to be delivered to those who need it.

I come from the right. It’s the cruelty. For the right, the cruelty is the point. The cruelty sells.

Schiff: Why is this firing of FBI agents such an important piece of this whole effort by Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and their enablers? Because .. if they're going to raid the treasury... They don't want an FBI that's going to examine anything they're doing.

Senator Raphael Warnock ahead of the vote on RFK Jr. for HHS Secretary:

"I simply do not trust him to oversee the CDC. He's unqualified, and I dare say that everybody here knows it."

BOOM!

Elon Musk says we should allow more WHITE South Africans to emigrate to the US. Not South Africans of any other race - specifically WHITE South Africans only.

There are a lot of big words in this letter. He won’t understand.

cannot be said enough that for a decade a critical number of americans have simply refused to accept that he means what he says

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, or scream... or all of the above.

Pritzker: "He promised he was gonna lower costs & make us safer. He's done none of it. I realize he's only been in office 2 weeks, but it's gotten worse, not better. You think grocery prices have gone down? No, they've gone up bc of what he's threatening or what he's already put in place"
