Lives upended for 4400 people, their families, their employers, their communities. The tax revenue to local governments lost because of missed work. All of the children traumatized because their parents were away from home…or worse, they were separated from their families, and detained themselves.

Or, you could stop using it because Jeff Bezos doesn’t need more of your money to undermine democracy and send his besties into space for shits and giggles.

Trump breaks silence on Kristi Noem’s alleged relationship with top aide President Donald Trump says he β€˜had not heard’ about the rumored affair, which both the secretary and her adviser Corey Lewandowski have denied, but pledges he will β€˜find out about it’

Love is blind...sometimes because of untreated syphilis.

Silent but deadly, unlike that time two weeks ago when the President of the United States shit his pants on camera at a press conference. That was loud but deadly.

People shouting "U-S-A! U-S-A!" on tv coverage of the Olympics has never seemed more crass to me than it does this year...
...And I've always been averse to seething patriotic fervor, so that's really saying something.

Sign the Petition Call for Judicial Removal Proceedings Against CCSD District E Trustee Lorena Biassotti

School board trustee and Moms for Liberty Wing Nut Biassotti made social media posts targeting trans kids, and there's now a petition calling for her removal. The GOP has turned into a child abuse cult -- they'll stop at nothing to make sure that kids are unsafe.

If someone dies in prison, do they bury them in the orange jumpsuit? I hope so.

How about this: The Administration disrupted air travel into a Blue City in a Red State to prevent Brown People from engaging in commerce.

Stock market points represent units of measurement for index levels (e.g., S&P 500, Dow Jones), not direct dollar amounts. Pam Bondi isn't smart enough to dye her roots before going on tv, let alone understand the stock market. Also, she's a liar who deserves to die in prison.

Pam Bondi should be impeached as a first step, disbarred as a second step and then arrested and convicted. She deserves to die in prison.

Back in my day, backflips were illegal, your music couldn't have lyrics, and a quad was something we walked across to get to class. If you sparkled that much, it was probably a medical condition. Whatever happened to tracing figure 8s with alarming precision? #skating #olympics

I'm watching the #Biathlon on the #Olympics right now, and wondering how many of the competitors are just experimenting with this while they're in college...

Musk Offers To Cover Legal Fees Of Anyone Who’s Sued For Speaking β€˜Truth’ On Epstein Musk’s offer was in response to an ad released by the survivors of Epstein’s crimes demanding the release of all remaining documents.

If you are on X. If you drive a Tesla -- a portion of your money is going to support shit like this.

Watching Enten on TV is exhausting. I wish there was a different way to get this information.

Maxwell wanted clemency in exchange for answering questions about Epstein. Of course, rather than expecting answers from a convicted felon and perjurer, seems it would be a lot easier to...oh, I don't know...believe the women who were victims?

The media is tripping over themselves to make sure they mention the bipartisan nature of the condemnation, while failing to mention that only one party consistently posts racist shit and enjoys the full-throated support of white nationalists.

@nbc-sports.bsky.social should fire the director of their Olympics figure skating coverage. Each performance starts with a close up of the skater(s) faces, and then they move out of frame so you can't see how any of the performances start. Amateurs.

Oh, for fucks sake. Tell him he gets the naming rights, and then after he releases the funds, pass a law that adderall addicts who shit themselves at press conferences can’t have public works projects named after them.

If by β€œgone way too far,” you mean raping kids, covering up the rape of children, and murdering citizens in the streets… well…I would agree with the majority of Americans. But let’s not be politic. They should die in prison.

Within half an hour of when Deputy AG Blanche told reporters that DOJ "complied with the statute...we did not protect President Trump," DOJ deleted multiple documents from the database with damning information about Trump. Among those deleted were first-person accounts of Trump raping kids.
