Emotional Support Trash Panda

Foresight isn't their strong suit.

Everything in this regime is the exact opposite of what it was meant to be.

The (real) NYT is going to take your job if you're not careful.

For one second, I really thought this was real.

This regime is only drawing more attention to these entertainers and, more importantly, that we are losing our 1A rights. It's going to backfire bigly for Trump, just like trying to silence Kimmel did.

Her whole being is an embarrassment.

In other news I have also shut down because I am underfunded

Used to? It's probably still going on.

Came here to say this. It's always the same 30%.

What they say without saying it says everything we need to know.

Me too, Toad. Me too.

The shutdown affects all of us personally whether we want to admit it or not.

The biggest lie I was told my entire childhood was that checks and balances would protect us from a dictator.

Very well said.

Trump's base thinks they're safe. They're not. He's already coming for them by taking away everything you mentioned above.

Rs throw the word "illegal/s" into anything these days and their base goes chomping at the bit.

This is probably just a coincidence too:

"Let's stop attacking the pedophiles."

The Deafening Silence I watched the coverage of Trump and Hegseth speaking to the military yesterday with a kind of uneasy fascination.

"A war from within" is us.
And by "us," I mean all of us, even those who voted for and still continue to support him.

He finally said the quiet part out loud.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown.

Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

State of play: King (Maine), Cortez-Masto (Nevada), and Fetterman (Asshole) caved. GOP will look for more on the next vote. Top targets are the others who caved in March:
Schatz (HI)
Durbin (IL)
Gillibrand & Schumer (NY)
Hassan & Shaheen (NH)
Peters (MI)

Keep an eye on Warner/Kaine in Virginia too.

🚨🚨🚨 SHUTDOWN INFO:
SSA is open and functioning (mostly)!!!! You should not miss payments you are expecting, if you do, please let us know. Field Offices and phones are open and staffed!!!! Here is the list of things we are not allowed to process during the shutdown so please don’t yell at us for it!

That's because they're criminals too.

People seem pretty damned proud of their psychoses these days

Using the word "illegal/s" always riles up the base. That's what this regime is all about. Their base will always go against their best interests if they're made to believe they're going against "illegals."

Can't wait to have a congress that actually does something.

Gee... I wonder whose in the Epstein files. Hmm...

I'm so disappointed in every part of our government. None of this should be happening. I feel like we've been lied to for decades. If we ever get out of this, we can't go back to the same old ways.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!
