Our electric bill shot up.

And our monthly grocery bill spiked, too.

And to those MAGA numbskulls who say β€œbut the gas prices!”? WAKE UP AND PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR UTILITY AND GROCERY BILLS!!!

But apparently we’re winning the tariff war & we’re super-respected internationally, so everything’s fine

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

It’s astounding to me how many family members/friends in this country are so very blind….

I went to visit my fourth grade teacher when I was in college. I found her in the phone book and called her. She knew me immediately. I ended up going to her home and we chatted for a couple hours. It was an incredible time….

Homan said he wants to end operations in MPLS (a lie), and said doing so β€œdepends on people who want to intimidate, and interfere, and put hands on ICE officers.”

Sounds like he’s describing ICE itself….

I don’t believe until it happens. And how will anyone credibly verify that it’s happened?

I wouldn’t trust Homan any farther than I could throw him. That guy is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Though I guys it’s somewhat more rough than a sheep. I can’t figure out what, though

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.

Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.

Hello?

Poor babies.

Mike Johnson, probably: β€œImagine how long it would take to convict someone accused of murder? It’d be a whole lot easier and quicker to just shoot them.”

Oh, wait. That’s what they’re doing to the β€œnarcoterrorists,” so…nbd.

Pretty easy for him to say that.

It’s β€œmore work for thee, but not for me.”

If all Trump’s unhinged posts get sent while he’s in the bathroom (reference his angry late-night toilet posts), does that mean Miller’s in the bathroom with him? 😬

The fact that ”nevertheless” shows up in here tells me he’s getting help.

That’s a 25c word….

Jesusunfollower (on instagram) has a funny post in which a guy at an eye doctor can’t tell the difference between Jesus and Trump.

One, or two? One, or two?

I guess it just points out the overwhelming depth of depravity among fellow Americans.

It’s disheartening.

MIKE JOHNSON YOU IDIOT!

This guy is so smarmy and smug. I’m not sure if he’s lying or if he really believes this nonsense.

Also, when ICE was created in β€˜03 did they wear masks? (I can’t find proof that they didn’t, but I’m 100% sure they haven’t worn masks for 23 years. CBP certainly hasn’t.)

In between all the fascism, it's also a MASSIVE crime wave.

Here’s a serious question I’ve asked several folks recently:

If Trump channeled his inner Jim Jones and rolled a big tub of grape-flavored potassium cyanide out in front of the WH and demanded his base drink it, how many would?

Also:

Is the man who said β€œI could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?" still president of the United States?

Yes.

Yes, yes, CNN. The Clintons, the Clintons, the Clintons.

Meanwhile the SITTING PRESIDENT is in the files.

Let’s deal with the biggest fish in the pond first, and then go after everyone else….

I recently heard someone refer to immigrants as people who want to join our national family.

Why wouldn’t we want our national family to grow?

Why wouldn’t we want to expand our understanding of the world?

Why wouldn’t we want to adopt people - as we were once adopted?

I’m so grateful he got the SB slot. I hope every word of it is in Spanish.
