Really? Yesterday I bought one of those little square fish sandwiches, a medium fries, and a medium iced tea at McDonald's. It was a mere $14.01. I could buy a Subaru!

So the plan is not to give money to the insurance companies it is to give money to the people to give money to the insurance companies. I see. You’re a genius, Mr President, and may I say sir, you’re looking very young and handsome today.

Farm workers were hard at work the raisin drying process under the hot California sun. Thanks to their hard work we will enjoy raisins in our morning oatmeal and in our Thanksgiving stuffing. #WeFeedYou

"Miscalculation"? I bet she has different words but she's too afraid to say. She knows things. They all do.

Important to remember that on top of the fascism and incompetence, everybody in the Trump admin is also stealing everything they can as quickly as possible.

The Tohono O'odham Nation has declared a state of emergency due to the federal shutdown and cuts in SNAP, WIC. This tribe of 34,000 members is on 2.8 million acres of land in southern Arizona. They were without representation when Trump's Little Johnson failed to swear in Adelita Grijalva.

No, Venezuela Is Not a β€˜Small Latin American Country’ And talk of a quick invasion and easy β€˜regime change’ is dangerously misleading.

A campaign that could evolve into bombing a nation thirty times the size of Panama, larger than Ukraine, and home to nearly 30 million people cannot be slipped past either Congress or the American public as an extension of drug policy. www.thebulwark.com/p/no-venezue...

"Camilo" is harvesting pomegranates in Firebaugh, CA. "We earn minimum wage. It's very tiring work. We climb up and down ladders with a heavy sack of fruit. We then rush to empty the sack into the bin. Today was a good day as the ground wasn't wet from the rain." #WeFeedYou

Anyone think him calling trump "donad" was NOT a typo, but what Epstein called him behind his back

Jesus Fucking Christ! What kind of person has a mind like that? What kind of sickness is it that gets off on this, that sends it to someone else who also gets off on it? Hell, I'm a psych pro, and I can't find an acceptable explanation anywhere.

"The dog that didn't bark"

is a famous clue from a Sherlock Holmes story,

"The Adventure of Silver Blaze,"

where the absence of a guard dog's barking

indicates the thief was someone familiar with the dog.

Yes, Trump got booed at the Commanders game.

But the real story is 2025’s wake-up call: Latino men swung, Black men returned to baseline, and voters who backed Trump in 2024 flipped blue.

Democrats are adjusting and meeting the moment while Republicans are using the same tired talking points.

Also, I bet Marge is smarting over losing her status as one of Trump’s a favored children to Laura Loomer. Also she's complaining that higher health and food costs are hitting home with her kids (as if she didn't vote for it).
