Jeffries: "These extremists want to be able to choose their voters as opposed to allowing the Texas voters to choose the people who should be privileged to represent them in Washington. It's theft. That's what gerrymandering in its extreme form is."

You literally can’t make this sh*t up

Donald Trump launched a youth sports initiative at the White House today, appearing alongside Lawrence Taylor, a registered sex offender who pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct involving a trafficked 16-year-old girl

A new low.

Ingraham translator: "It's okay if it screws us all over, because it hurts non-white people, too."
Big "let's fill the pool with concrete before we have to desegregate it" energy.

This is another way of saying the only working part of Trump's economy is hype-based services and even then, AI is only "booming" because investors are lighting billions of dollars on fire hoping to be the last standing; there's no positive revenue anywhere in it. An economy of the 1% for the 1%.

“.. Sure, we’ve seen an explosion in AI capital spending in recent years. But this increasingly looks like the only game in town for growth. Housing, consumption and government spending — nearly 90% of the economy — are now stagnant at best.”

“Job listings from the local paper at the time encouraged college students to apply. Trump’s human-resources manager said Trump wanted ‘young, attractive people.’”

'I don't care about Direct File': IRS chief says agency plans to end free filing program Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Bill Long said the agency will end its Direct File program.

The IRS's free Direct File tool is now "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief.

This comes after tax prep companies like Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the for years to block it.

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

The riders! Or as naked as they want to be. Many are completely naked, others have underwear, some are topless or wearing pasties. Some have costumes or colorful accoutrements. All (adult) ages, shapes, & races. Bikes and skateboards and what not. Spectators cheering. Everyone having a great time.

This year's St. Louis naked bike ride was hella fun to watch! So good to see joy!

My 11-year-old daughter immediately spotted the problem. But Trump couldn't.

Holy cow! I'm going to make a fortune every time my doctor gives me a prescription!

True Story. 👇

‘i think they want to die’ is one of the most evil things ever uttered and it won’t even be a headline.

If you have ever wondered if Trump sells pardons, and were curious about how much they cost, here is your answer:

It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.

This administration and its supporters have no values, no morals, no principles other than adherence to Trump and seething hatred for anything not-Trump. A despicable pedophilic predator is a hero if not-Trump opposed them. They are less than human.

“There is no indication that the government will provide some grace period before snatching up and imprisoning this new underclass of noncitizen babies; they are apparently subject to arrest from the moment of birth.”

By all means, let the guy who told the secretary of state of Georgia "I just want to find 11,780 votes" make decisions about whose numbers are wrong.

So now every civil servant compiling data in the Commerce and Labor departments for public reports will know if they put out numbers Trump doesn’t like they will be fired.

"WASHINGTON, D.C. (August 1, 2025) – The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) announced today that it will begin an orderly wind-down of its operations"

And we're officially at the end of being able to trust the jobs numbers in this country ever again.

So what if Trump’s FBI blacked his name out of the Epstein Files and Trump’s DOJ just moved Epstein’s fellow sex trafficker to a nicer prison, there’s nothing to be suspicious about here, ha ha, hey how about that Sydney Sweeney huh, ha ha?

I think the central premise that young men searching for information on how to have a sex life will invariably encounter just an absolute avalanche of right wing misogyny peddlers and very little actual helpful advice is a genuine problem.

Her and Trump are buds going way back, and a lot of the other members of DOJ and administration are tight with her, so, no, she's not going to go rogue on a mic. Every word will be preplanned and she will go back to her mansions at the end.
