Trump is just a means to an end. They needed a stupid, easily manipulated, ridiculously popular person to implement what they have been planning for years. He’s the false idol they were waiting for. That’s why they do not care that he is conservative, they do not care that he is not religious.

Newsom & Pritzker.

When he wasn’t working for the administration….so he took the $50K.

Mark my words, the Republicans are setting her up for a run for Senate.

Just disturbing.

Remember how many of you voted for no more wars and lower gas prices?

Don’t worry, we won’t let you forget.

Good.

Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”l

Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.

Ironic, how quickly Trump moved to seize the California National Guard and threaten to send in the Marines to quell a handful of protesters in LA...

Yet he never bothered to call anyone to quell the violent Jan 6 rioters...who have received pardons & cash awards from Trump's corrupt government.

God, why is he such a ghoul?

Well, Musk has all of Trump’s details too. LOL

Hey Joni, why wipe when you’re just going shit again anyway?

At least his advisers should know the difference. They’re banking on MAGA not knowing the difference to feed the hate and perpetuate the lies.

She’s such a CUNT and I mean that sincerely.

Penny, oh, Penny, who shimmers like gold,
A poet’s mirage, in sunlight’s bold hold,
Your verses curious, magic art,
Weaved enchantments on my heart.
A golden penny, in shadows you gleam,
“I am nobody”—yet you’re my dream,
Take my ode, sweet Penny, or let it fall,
For like my blooms, I give my all!

My name is Penny. I love this!

Ironic c when the federal government settled with Babbit’s family today for storming the Capitol. 🙄

My goodness, cocaine is some recreational drug now?

The October Story That Outlined Exactly What the Trump Administration Would Do to the Federal Bureaucracy Historians have hindsight when they look into the past; journalists have the facts on the ground and context to help them look ahead. That means we can sometimes be surprised by how prescient a story ...

NEW: In October, we published secret recordings of Russell Vought discussing plans to eviscerate entire agencies and decimate the morale of federal workers if Trump won a second term.

It's hard to imagine a more prescient piece of journalism, our editor-in-chief @sengelberg.bsky.social writes.

Came here to ask that exactly.

Trump says: "he who saves his country does not violate any law" and is cheered on by Elon Musk, who posts 14 American flags

Attributed to Napoleon, who ended democracy in French, this quote was also used by Anders Breivik, the far-right anti-immigrant terrorist who murdered 77 people

Unfortunately, that won’t work because judges rely on the Marshals and they take their orders from the Executive Branch.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
