We should have punished the Confederates.

When I hear tRump say crazy shit like this it just baffles my mind that people thought he was the better choice over an exceptional candidate because of her sex and color.
Our people wouldn’t be digging in dumpsters to feed their families and the world wouldn’t hate us.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

10th boat blown up in the Caribbean.

6 people dead this time.

Not a single arrest made.

Not an ounce recovered.

Not a shred of evidence provided.

Republican senators have lost all autonomy and are no more than Trump’s puppets. Don’t mistake them for democratic leaders. Listen to Stuart Stevens on MSNBC

convicted felon vandalizes White House, because fuck you, that’s why how is this even happening?

I’d like to think that after all the bullshit that’s been shoved in our faces over the last ten months, I’m beyond the ability to be shocked by anything new this vulgar pig perpetrates β€” but for the love of everything sacred, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?

In the midst of a government shutdown, and in the face of fundamental challenges to the rule of law and to democratic accountability, the House of Representatives--the people's house, the heart of our democratic republic--hasn't cast a vote since Sep. 19. An extraordinary failure of responsibility.

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Whatever you think of the White House as a building or a symbol, the fact is that the image of it being torn apart on a whim two days after 7 million people hit the streets against autocracy is going to make a HUGE amount of people really, really angry, and that's an energy that should be harnessed.
