Can you imagine how many home solar panels could be installed in the U.S. with $2,000,000,000 a day that would make us substantially less dependent on oil

His whole life, Trump has always had someone else around to bail him out of the messes he creates: his father, Allen Weisselberg, the "adults in the room" in his first term. Now all those protectors are gone and he is openly begging for someone to save him from his own folly.
Plus he’s old and ignorant. Incapable of learning anything.
one of the earliest lessons in politics I learned as a kid from my parents was to always vote for a tax increase, because you're trading a dollar amount so small you probably won't notice in order to fund something important that benefits everybody.

Free message for Democrats on taxes: We will use them to improve people's lives instead of killing people for no reason.
An astounding statement from a federal judge about the executive branch, generally; the Justice Department, more particularly; and these subpoenas, specifically.

Donald Trump combining in one week the worst crises of the Jimmy Carter (oil prices/inflation), Reagan (Iran-Contra), HW Bush (massive deficit), Clinton (Epstein-related), George W. Bush (Iraq debacle) Barack Obama (Libya) & Biden (the economy is fine/doddering) presidencies is quite an achievement
Reading Hamnet.
End the madness!
End this madness!
Elon Musk has already started plans to launch a million satellites.

I thought it was because we use a special blend during the winter to cut down on smog. It's worked. I can remember my chest hurting on the playground when I was a kid. My kids have heard of smog days but never experienced one.
I’m watching The Pitt, and it bothers me that they repeatedly show the doctors using hand sanitizer when they leave a room, but none of them wear a mask except for surgical procedures.

If you’re an American service member who gets killed in a retaliatory strike, your family can take comfort in the fact that it was done in service of making the host of Celebrity Apprentice feel like a big man for a minute, before he moved on to something else and forgets about this forever

Why isn't this a WAY bigger story? Planning to be retired in 2040? Or still alive and on Medicare any time after that? Good luck with your healthcare.
This is truly some of the meanest shit I’ve ever heard of and I firmly believe the intended this to end with his death
The Rohingya have already survived one genocide, one driven by lies spread on Facebook. The horror show is now continuing here.
Electricity rates increased by 13% under Trump.
49 states and Washington, D.C. are already experiencing electricity and natural gas bill increases.
This is all John Roberts' fault
I don’t want my kids or your kids to die fighting Lindsey Graham’s next war.
