Our electric bill shot up.
And our monthly grocery bill spiked, too.
And to those MAGA numbskulls who say βbut the gas prices!β? WAKE UP AND PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR UTILITY AND GROCERY BILLS!!!
But apparently weβre winning the tariff war & weβre super-respected internationally, so everythingβs fine
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeareβs 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.

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

Poor babies.
Mike Johnson, probably: βImagine how long it would take to convict someone accused of murder? Itβd be a whole lot easier and quicker to just shoot them.β
Oh, wait. Thatβs what theyβre doing to the βnarcoterrorists,β soβ¦nbd.
Pretty easy for him to say that.

Itβs disheartening.
MIKE JOHNSON YOU IDIOT!
This guy is so smarmy and smug. Iβm not sure if heβs lying or if he really believes this nonsense.
Also, when ICE was created in β03 did they wear masks? (I canβt find proof that they didnβt, but Iβm 100% sure they havenβt worn masks for 23 years. CBP certainly hasnβt.)
In between all the fascism, it's also a MASSIVE crime wave.

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 βI 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.
Letβs deal with the biggest fish in the pond first, and then go after everyone elseβ¦.
I recently heard someone refer to immigrants as people who want to join our national family.
Why wouldnβt we want our national family to grow?
Why wouldnβt we want to expand our understanding of the world?
Why wouldnβt we want to adopt people - as we were once adopted?
Iβm so grateful he got the SB slot. I hope every word of it is in Spanish.
