How many felons do you think are working for ICE at this point? I definitely think it's a a non-zero number. If they weren't a felon when they started, I suspect many of them are...now.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

Sometimes I can’t tell if it is better for these folks to stay or do this. Either way, admirable.

Susan, I hope I look as good as you at 102!

They’re going to fire a US attorney because they couldn’t find evidence for a crime that was manufactured by the administration?

Banana republic shit

Imagine weaponizing the Justice Department to chase phantom crimes against your political opponents… then punishing prosecutors for not making them up. That’s not America, that’s authoritarianism.

RFK Jr. says America is terribly unhealthy. If you compare the US to, say, the UK the EU Australia, Japan, Canada, or any other developed country, he’s absolutely right. The difference is not vaccinations, though. Those countries all have vaccinations. The difference is universal healthcare.

We don’t celebrate his death, but we won’t hide the truth about his life.

You’d think after their cult leader tried to hang his own VP for not helping him steal an election, they’d be familiar with the notion of right on right crime.

Yet it befuddles them to this day.

The rhetoric is maddening.

“Senseless tragedy”?

No.

A senseless tragedy is women dying from lack of life saving care for common pregnancy complications.

This wasn’t a tragedy. It wasn’t senseless.
It was CREATED by the very people present in the White House.

Sitting President calling for violence!

It’s not “both sides”

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

I can understand the anguish from losing someone you looked up to politically.

What sits wrong with me now is that we see none of that from some of the same people whenever children are murdered in school. Maybe we all agree it should all end

How the right spread ‘brutal and cruel’ misinformation after Minnesota lawmaker killings The rightwing media ecosystem spins up narratives to serve their agendas after tragic events, regardless of accuracy

NOT ONE PERSON WAS FIRED. To this day, no consequences, no correction, no apology.

I'm sick after seeing the video of Charlie Kirk being shot.

Violence against civilians is never okay. Political violence — no matter who is hurt — will always beget worse political violence. And it has no place in our country.

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

How a Top Secret SEAL Team 6 Mission Into North Korea Fell Apart

So Trump approved a botched military mission during which SEALs killed a number of North Korean civilians, and then likely illegally the Trump administration never briefed Congress about it

A hoard of people march in the streets with protest signs. Even in heels, I am too short to properly show the massive scale of the crowd.

The streets of Chicago are full with tens of thousands of people standing up to ICE and Trump.

“This is racial gerrymandering at its worst.” Rep. Al Green told Mother Jones during the Texas House proceedings, where they passed a redistricting plan that could give the GOP five additional seats in the US House.

As your Governor, I won’t stop fighting to defend your reproductive freedom.

Not saying anyone should do this but, you know, if you have the means...

Florida ordered to dismantle Alligator Alcatraz over environmental impact The ruling, which gives the state 60 days to act, comes as Gov. Ron DeSantis plans to convert a prison in North Florida into a second immigrant detention site.

Of course there will be an appeal and possibly a stay, but hopefully this decision sticks www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...
