Trump is ordering all flags in the country to fly at half mast until Sunday. For Charlie fucking Kirk, not for Melissa Hortman and her husband shot and killed by a MAGA loon though

Am I supposed to care about this guy getting shot when children are killed on the regular in this country due in large part to โ€œconservatismโ€ and their refusal to pass responsible gun laws? HARD PASS

3 high school students in Colorado right after this shooting. Think the right will care?

Gun loving divisive racist misogynist fuels violent rhetoric Republican that mocked school shootings & gun violence seconds before that gun he fought so hard for turned on him.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this countryโ€ฆ

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.

House Speaker Mike Johnson just got caught fabricating a claim that Trump was an FBI informant in the Epstein case, then quietly walked it back like nothing happened. These people lie like they breathe.

Up 60c per gallon in Eugene, OR since Trump took office at cheapest station. Costco's Kirkland gas now $3.59. I was paying $2.95 a month before the election. Of course, food prices have also gone up. In general the purchasing power of the dollar has dropped. He LIED! No surprise there.

DOGE uploaded live copy of Social Security database to 'vulnerable' cloud server, says whistleblower | TechCrunch The Social Security Administration's chief data officer has publicly blown the whistle, alleging DOGE put hundreds of millions of Social Security records at risk of compromise.

Trump and Musk claimed DOGE would cut โ€œfraudโ€ and โ€œabuse.โ€

In reality, DOGE staff are so unqualified they canโ€™t even be trusted to safeguard Americansโ€™ Social Security numbers.

Let's fire those risking our dataโ€”not the workers just trying to help folks get their checks.

If Intel is such a "Great American company" why does America own only 10% of it? Nice deal making, Donnie.

My b'day's the 18th but made a wish & blew out a candle in a Mexican restaurant with friends last nite. TV on in the corner. assface on screen. My friend says loudly, "The wish didn't work! He's still president!" Whole restaurant exploded in laughter.

Hope must spring eternal. It is imperative. If we give up hope, we give up on ourselves, and on shaping this country into a more perfect union.

American corporations are on pace to spend $1.1 trillion on stock buybacks in 2025, an all-time high.

Buybacks don't create more jobs, increase wages, or grow the economy โ€” but they do help juice CEO pay that's often tied to stock performance.

Nothing trickles down to workers.
