But this is the administration for the Middle Class, right? Union Busting helps nobody but those in power. That, has never been the middle class...

Conservatives are all about "The Children" until their immigration policies cost them their migrant labor, then it's okay to put children to work in the fields, rather than school. #StayMad

Ex-Sen. Kyrsten Sinema shames AOC, Dems who wanted to abolish filibuster before government funding fracas β€œChange of heart on the filibuster, I see!” the former Arizona senator needled Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who had lashed out Sinema for not bowing to left-wing pressure to scrap the…

Sinema is a literal waste of space. After the fact, snark aimed towards a situation that wouldn't exist had we nuked the Filibuster under Biden. Had that happened, much more of his agenda would have been passed, and the outcome of the 2020 election would likely have been different. #Staymadbooboo

RFK Jr. has postponed indefinitely the yearly meeting in which the projected strain of influenza is identified and agreed upon, so that vaccines can be made for the fall 2025 flu shot. Add this latest development and we are running out of time to have flu shots ready. By design?

True in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Stop lying to your kids. They can't be anything you as an adult would be unwilling to support.

Yes. Trading one Russian bought opportunist for another isn't a net gain.

Just so we are all clear...
63% of vegetables in the US come from Mexico.
60% of Crude Oil in the US comes from Canada.

Your groceries are about to cost a lot more.
Your gas is about to cost a lot more.

This was unacceptable to you under Biden. We will all watch you be silent about it now.

Point of Fact: There are currently more measles cases in Texas, than Transgender athletes in the nation.

One of those kills. The other is a political talking point used dozens of times last night.

'The Daily Show' accepts Musk's terms for interview with Stewart: 'We'd be delighted' Elon Musk agreed to come on "The Daily Show" after host Jon Stewart delivered a takedown of DOGE, the cost-cutting initiative he unofficially leads.

And today in "Things that will never happen" (while the DudeBros still talk about Kamala not appearing on Rogan)... #Staymadbooboo

The CEOs of Meta, Google, Apple, and Amazon attended the Inauguration along with Elon. Now, all of those companies are mimicking Elon's DOGE actions with federal employees by firing staff for "low performance" without proof. This was never about saving the middle class. #Staymadbooboo

This is misinformation. This is how it is packaged so that after decades of eroding your will to question, the mere appearance of data is enough for you to believe.

A count of SS#'s in the database, grouped by age doesn't indicate payments, or if those SS#'s are active. Yet, ppl believe it anyway.

"What if Sejanus was self-diagnosed with autism"? Elon has never been formally diagnosed with autism, it's simply a claim he's made with nothing supporting it. Personally, I'd love to see Elon answer ANY question, time honored or not.

The GOP takes advantage of short attention spans and poor memory. Write.Things.Down. Price of groceries, gas, eggs. Unemployment %, GDP, Dow Jones average.... force them to justify "Trickle Down" using ACTUAL DATA you've collected. It will come in handy come midterms and 2028. #staymad

Outrage exhaustion is the goal. Outrageous cabinet picks, 3rd term bills that have no chance of passing. State bills banning jacking off...this is the plan. So while you're busy and your attention is divided, they can move the pieces of the REAL agenda in place. Conserve energy, play chess. #Staymad

1) Asperger's is no longer an accepted diagnosis. It has been removed from the DSM and is considered part of the Autism Spectrum.
2) Musk has never been officially diagnosed. He is self diagnosed.
3) Claiming disability as an excuse for inexcusable behavior, is ableist.

Yep, kissing the ass of the guy on their way out the door doesn't keep the bills paid. Just pointing out that TT wouldn't have reactivated before an executive order from Trump, if Biden planned to enforce that law.

The ONLY reason they dared bring it back today, is bc Biden said he wouldn't enforce the law if it passed. Thank you, President Biden for another day of the app we know, before it becomes meta-cized.

Explaining in Five Paragraphs the Scam Donald Trump Just Pulled on 150 Million American TikTok Users Make no mistake, one of the most popular apps in the world was just down in the U.S. for 14 hours because Donald Trump ordered that it be taken down. Why? So he could be seen as a hero in β€œsaving” it.

I hope this helps clear up what just happened. It is short, free, and sourced.

Tom, it's back today (19th) because Biden said he wouldn't enforce the law if it passed. Trump doesn't take office until tomorrow. Can we NOT credit the man with things he doesn't have the power to do yet? The ONLY reason they dared bring it back today, is not bc of Trump.

Just a reminder, Trump isn't President yet and Biden said he wouldn't enforce the Tiktok ban. That's why they were able to bring it back....before Trump takes office. Tiktok coming back on the 19th, has nothing to do with Trump, who takes office on the 20th. #staymadbooboo

10M ppl that voted Biden in 2020, stayed home in 2024. Harris lost by 3M across key states. It's easy to say "Sexism/Racism" and call it a day. It's harder to acknowledge the DNC, post primary with 107 days left took choice away from voters and put up a WOC who said she'd be the same as Biden.

Can we take a second to focus on the "Democrats staying home" part, and why? The easy answer is misogyny and racism. The rest of the answer is the mirror the DNC needs to look at in order to change the outcome.

In High School, I hid flasks and smoked cigarettes behind the school at Homecoming. Now, I'm chaperoning the Homecoming Dance. My transition from John Bender to Principal Vernon is complete.
