I’m a caregiver for my mom with Alzheimer’s. She once said to my stepdad, as he was getting grumpy, “If we were monkeys, I’d be flinging crap at you.” He burst out laughing, she often had good ways of diffusing him. A must when one lives with a tyrant.

MAGA tears over comedians and satire are sofa king sweet. The 1st amendment is 1st for a reason, so Donny, don’t be as sensitive as Putin, it’s so unamerican, like everything else you’re doing. And, hating your actions is not the same as hating you, quit believing everything you think is true.

Agreed. We need to make the tent big enough for the entire human race to fit, we only have each other and this planet, if we can keep it … all together. We don’t need “big daddy,” we are enough to get the job done.

ABC's Terry Moran is suspended following his social media post calling Trump and Miller haters ABC News has suspended veteran correspondent Terry Moran for a since-deleted social media post calling Trump administration deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a “world class hater.”

Terry Moran is one of my new heroes.

So odd how Trump loves winning but wants to rename the fleet for a bunch of people that lost

So much for taking care of all the caregivers and everyone else that needs healthcare… HEY EVERYONE! THIS IS YOU! ALL THOSE PREEXISTING CONDITIONS, like MENOPAUSE, CANCER and whatever else is a cut on profits and you’re screwed. Capitalism is great, but not in healthcare or food where we all die 4 $

@nbcnews.com Tom,Could you tie in the sudden change in benefits for advair to what the big billionaire benefiting bill undoes for the ACA&how many more are going to face the same, or complete, loss of benefits like the family that lost their son?Don’t go soft on Trump like Lester did in the debate.

How huge health funding cuts in Washington 'put lives at risk' in communities Americans are losing an array of people and programs dedicated to keeping them healthy.

So much for keeping us healthy and seems to contradict MAHA.

I wasn’t worried about outrunning AI, I’m far more concerned with it freezing our money and it claiming us broke, while a human on the other side laughs or while it does,to keep itself alive by having funding for its energy consumption. I have a robovac, it’s not great, I’m not surprised by the race

Did I have to allow the IRS to withdraw my taxes today? I did, mainly because I don’t want an issue with my healthcare, thanks to the Affordable Care Act; thanks Obama (not sarcastically, most genuinely).
I don’t mean to make light, I do believe fully and unconditionally in the rule of law.

Thank goodness the Department of Education is being disbanded, so tomorrow’s children are too stupid to ask us how we could elect a felon that tried for a violent overthrow of a free and fair election.

Is it just me, or is DOGE comprised of nothing but bottom feeders? FFS, nefarious, little dark souls that know way more than they ever should’ve had access to.

Baby Sandhill cranes were out with their folks today. I wanted to share a glimpse of something beautiful today, as I think we could all use it.

@maddow.msnbc.com you’re a white girl, you have worked as hard as anyone, probably as hard as @joyannreid.bsky.social, but we know that black girl magic isn’t always honored like it should be, and that magic can’t always benefit reality or be seen or felt like it should. Help us make sense of it all

Who hasn’t worked three jobs, just to have a roof and barely food?

I know many that have worked as hard and harder than I have. Yes, we all want to have as much as Trump, but I don’t want to be ANYTHING LIKE HIM

🖕for feeling sorry for yourselves that it wasn’t served up on a silver platter, that we didn’t win the sperm lottery born with $400m,and that we all had to work as hard as everyone we know.
Who hasn’t had a hard time?

I’ve lost $20k in my retirement since January, you hate me for working for a company that provided a retirement account and see me as elite, when you, as Americans (especially my white friends, like me), had all the same opportunities?

He’s just out to show everyone how powerful he is and punish us all for never accepting his garish ways or him. He certainly showed us; he’s about cruelty and punishment.

Good thing we’ll still have social security, with our retirement accounts dwindling. Wait, what? Social security is getting robbed too? I’m not sure President Thump understands the definition of winning.
