Is "addled" the new euphemism for "hungover"?

Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands.

The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.

So good in so many things.
Also, one of my first childhood crushes.
May he RIP.

i think an important formative childhood/teenagehood experience is to go over to your friends house for a sleepover and realize some people's families are way more fucked up than yours

Because if you had their names, you'd discover that many of them aren't in the country illegally, and aren't criminals, gang members or terrorists.

Someone needs to clue in Pam and Chad that this isn't some good ole boy judge in Suwannee County that they can BS with a lot of big words and scary language.

Posting tonight ti shine a light on what the Alien Enemies Act looks like IRL. Our @immdef.bsky.social client fled Venezuela last year & came to US to seek asylum. He has a strong claim. He was detained upon entry because ICE alleged his tattoos are gang related. They are absolutely not. 🧡

It's going to take a national general strike to make any difference.
Fascists like protests because it gives them a chance to demonstrate how much they like to arrest and assault people.

Mizelles Must Navigate Ethics of Dual Trump Appointed Roles Chad Mizelle, the incoming Justice Department chief of staff, and his federal judge wife, Kathryn Mizelle, will need to steer clear of each other’s overlapping matters to avoid ethical conflicts.

Nope, they're married.

More than $3 trillion of wealth evaporated from the S&P 500 since Inauguration Day as policies meant to put us in the Golden Age hurtle us back to the Iron Age.

It’s not β€œperformative resistance” to vote against a BAD bill which contains things you supposedly oppose. Please rethink this.

STOCK MARKETS ARE CRASHING, JOBS NUMBERS ARE TERRIBLE, WE ARE HEADING TO WORLD WAR III, AND WE HAVE TWO OF THE MOST INCOMPETENT "LEADERS" IN HISTORY. THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!

So this was a campaign promise not an observation.

We're not going to stop Trump without having some help from right of center. I'm sorry you don't see that.

She is a centrist who won in a state Trump won. Her speech was intended to reach across to the mushy middle - which includes anti-Soviet/Russian Reagan Republicans.
The entire quote makes clear she's pointing out to them that Trump is not Reagan.

Why are you trying to make your point using a false quote?

Ronald Reagan is 'rolling in his grave,' Sen. Elissa Slotkin says in Democratic response to Trump Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan also had harsh words for Elon Musk and warned that Trump's policies "could walk us right into a recession."

Please stop spreading a false quote. This is what she said
β€œAs a Cold War kid, I’m thankful it was Reagan and not Trump in office in the 1980s,” she added. β€œTrump would have lost us the Cold War.”

Exactly. It's hard to argue this is the end of democracy when the only protest is wearing pink or just not showing up.
This is the time for "good trouble."

I'm sorry I disagree with this decision.
The Dems should go and fight back against his lies in real time.
Don't let Trump have an easy adoring audience to play to.

Trigger him. Make him say nasty things that few Americans will support.
It's easy to do - look at how Vance triggered him in the Oval Office with Zelenskyy.
We haven't much time left, we need to do this now.
