The same fragile clown that threw a chair off a 6 story roof bar in downtown Nashville?

Time to vote him out!! Make politicians scared again—they forgot they WORK FOR US!!

Schoolchildren are routinely slaughtered by AR-15s. Hundreds die.

[*crickets* "Thoughts and prayers" *crickets*]

A couple unoccupied cars are set on fire. No one is hurt.

["THIS HORROR WILL NOT STAND!!! We MUST act to STOP it from ever happening AGAIN!!!!" We will pass new LAWS BANNING IT!!!]

Needs to be a travel ban against the US.

Wait, did that shellacked shit-for-brains actually brag about his college student son’s “aptitude” for turning on a laptop?

Trump during the election: No new wars!

Trump after inauguration: We’re going to send the U.S. military in to conquer Gaza, Greenland, Canada, Mexico, and the Panama Canal!

“On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST). For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming. Thank you for your service”

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

Let Denmark cook.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

Adolf Hitler died on April 30, 1945.
Donald Trump was born on June 14, 1946.

Evil doesn’t die—it just reincarnates in another body.

YouTube video by Democracy Docket Pam Bondi, Election Denier, Starts Attorney General Hearings Today

NEW: Confirmation hearings begin today in the U.S. Senate for Pam Bondi, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general. Paige and I discuss Bondi's work to suppress voters and efforts to overturn the 2020 election. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gZF...

Jack Smith’s final say: Takeaways from the special counsel’s report A defense of Merrick Garland, a criminal charge not pursued and a few new tidbits of evidence.

NEW: Jack Smith defended Garland’s pace, laying out DOJ’s frenetic, secretive efforts to win privilege fights with recalcitrant witnesses — Scott Perry, Mike Pence, John Eastman — that took months.

More takeaways from the Smith report.

A map of the South China Sea and surrounding countries, which are marked as ASEAN members. There's a circle on the sea with the label, "Fight with China."

I made a little picture to help explain to the MAGAts why Pete Hegseth's utter ignorance about ASEAN actually matters, especially for a guy who says he wants to roll back Chinese influence.

Sadly, it is not perplexing.

She is an election denier, period.

i am watching clips from the hegseth hearings and it is a goddamn insult
to this country that this chucklefuck was even nominated

You can’t claim national security reasons to silence 170 million Americans, then nominate a drunk 🤡 to secure the nation.

As 2025 begins, so does the year’s first full moon, which also marks the last of four consecutive supermoons, according to NASA. Known as the “wolf moon,” it gets its name from the idea that wolves howl during January’s long, cold nights.

Mexico and Canada are sending firefighters to risk their lives to help fight the fires in California. They aren’t asking for anything in return.

Meanwhile, MAGA is busy denigrating Mexico and threatening to annex Canada.

YouTube video by Pearlmania500 The Reasons For The TikTok Ban

With a week left of TikTok before the ban hammer drops, here’s an explainer on why the app is getting banned (the answer is the algorithm):

As long as we’re renaming places, I’m renaming ‘Texas’ as ‘Old Mexico.’

Trump won’t be going to prison. What a f””king joke. But he’ll carry that 'felon' title to the grave. Meanwhile, the idiots who voted for him? They’ll serve the 4-year sentence right alongside the rest of us. Wish they could get double—they deserve every f*king minute of it.

One thing is clear: The 11th Circuit is not acting with urgency to DOJ’s emergency request to lift Judge Cannon’s hold on the Jack Smith report.

There is a universe where courts tie up the report until Trump is in charge. A few more dominoes to fall before then though.

Alito and Trump make the Supreme Court’s troubles even worse As the far-right justice faces yet another controversy, he doesn’t exactly have a deep reservoir of credibility he can turn to in response.

"It’s unclear why the president-elect would personally 'make a call to check references, a task generally left to lower-level aides'..."

My favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.

Another sad day in America. Go home, sir. You won’t be going to prison. The presidency is afforded extraordinary privileges. You’re free to run the country and fuck it all up again. Now please, get the f**k out my courtroom—I have a busy schedule—you disgusting piece of sh**.

A 10 minute YouTube video takes me 600x longer to make than a 3 minute TikTok.

They are completely different platforms, audiences, and mediums.

JUST IN: DOJ has notified Cannon it is appealing her order blocking Jack Smith’s report.

I bet that odor is truly horrendous.

From seeing the online reaction to this image, a lot of y’all have never been trapped in an hour plus work situation where you gotta play nice with an enemy before, and it shows.
