Dear Leader has claimed that 300 million Americans died from drugs last year. The population of the U.S. is estimated at about 340 million in 2024. I expect housing, gas, grocery etc prices to be much lower due to vastly decreased demand. With only 40 million left, we'll all be rich!

Israel is deliberately luring starving people with food in order to slaughter them. This is genocide in action.

It appears that the United States is going to celebrate its Semiquincentennial Anniversary by burning itself to the ground and then salting the earth. Glory!

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow? Freedom? Democracy? Both are either dead or dying in this country. So what are we celebrating?

DOGE has reportedly gained access to sensitive NLRB data β€” including info on union activity, workplace complaints, and names of organizers.

Coincidentally, the NLRB has multiple lawsuits against SpaceX and Tesla.

The conflicts of interest just keep getting more blatant.

RFKjr fired 40% of the staff that administers Meals On Wheels. The whole program is now at risk of shutting down. The entire staff of the division that helps low income people pay heating and cooling bills were also fired.

Republicans want to fully repeal the estate tax.

This would result in a massive tax cut for the wealthiest families and further entrench an American aristocracy.

How will Republicans pay for it?

With major cuts to social programs like Medicaid and SNAP.

Trickle up economics.

Black people were desperate to be slaves in America, traveled here in luxury and were fed on sweet cream and strawberries as they contentedly and with great satisfaction picked cotton and tobacco in the blazing hot sun.

Now they're going to whitewash the Smithsonian. Native Americans happily gave America their land and skipped joyously onto reservations.

Notorious political strategist, Lee Atwater, in 1981 explaining how the GOP can be more subtle with its racism. Stop using the N-word. Instead, talk about government cuts because racist white voters would assume (often erroneously) that this would hurt Black people more than them. Sound familiar?

The reason the Trump administration has so many incompetent opportunists who make bad choices is because the only criterion for getting any of these jobs is that you've shown loyalty to Donald Trumpβ€”and that's a huge sign that you are an incompetent person who makes bad choices.
