Could not agree more. One of the few voices that preserved my sanity through the first Trump administration.

Is her face going to fall off soon?

Wait. So Trump personally intervened to get a child sex offender off the hook? During the time of Epstein files being blocked from release by Trump?

The Pollster Who Sensed Democracy Was Faltering What does the road map to restore American democracy look like?

Good inteview with Luntz.

That is hilariously bad branding.

I guess the GOP can stand for Gullible On Putin as well as Guardians Of Pedophiles.

Gavin Newsom's moment Democrats have found their fight. Newsom is leading the charge.

New in PN: Gavin Newsom's moment

"Newsom and other Dems joining this battle are right to fight. And by fighting, they are demonstrating just how weak Trump is. When you bend the knee, MAGA looks invincible. As soon as you stand up, though, the orange god starts to look like a fetid bag of wind."

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump announces he will issue an unconstitutional and illegal executive order purporting to ban mail-in voting and certain voting equipment for the 2026 midterm election.

Such an effort would violate the Constitution and is a major step to prevent free and fair elections.

This is such a bad idea.

And the people who helped elect Trump are getting massive influence over all of us. And they happen to be delusional, unhinged, and generally psychopathic.

He IS invading America First.

Two senators and two representatives in the US congress could influence policy and get the policies that help the Puerto Rican people passed. Being a territory allows the US to take advantage of the labor force without providing services or opportunity.

The Senate budget report finds that was not the case. And it cost US taxpayers a lot to give tax breaks to companies under 936 www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Not just a moronic, regressive policy that is bad for every American, completely counter to the stated goals of energy dominance.

How did statehood advocates foster economic collapse?

Nice. We are finally entering the modern world of surface travel.

Things will get worse before they get a whole lot worse.

Go Gavin go! And also the rest of normal human beings with big follower counts should adopt this approach. Trolling with oetty insults and name calling combined with bullying and braggadocio until the dimbulbs of media start realizing that they have normalized this bullshit.

"There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

So many issues with allowing criminals to scam consumers with no mechanism of recourse.

I imagine that the constant presence of white ladies in yoga gear filming everything on their phones would go a long way toward helping people feel safer about these checkpoints.

True dat.

They want the dedicated staff at VA to be so tired, underpaid and demoralized that they quit, so finally they can screw up the best functioning single payer medical system in the country and make people pay more for lower quality care by privatizing services.

Maybe they are just there to pick up trash and plant trees and work on civic projects.
