AOC, Jasmine Crocket and Chris Murphy need to address the nation tomorrow night and announce their plans for a nationwide work strike. The whole government is going to shut down in two weeks anyways. Why not do it on our own terms, and actually try to get something out of it?

Americans are largely disappointed that the Rule Of Law has failed to provide consequences for the most powerful criminals in American History.

“No, it’s totally cool that you shared this picture of me as an obese caveman hillbilly, Mr. President. I like it. It’s sooo funny. These are tears from laughing so hard, not rage sweats. It’s great. It’s soooo great.” - JD Vance

Call your elected representative and let them know how disappointed you are they didn’t listen to their constituents. (202) 224-3121. #pbs #winstonsalem #northcarolina #votethemout

I hate to break it to you, but if you are fine with ICE arresting/deporting people from the parking lot of a Home Depot, it’s not the “dangerous illegals” you’re afraid of, it’s just immigrants.

Can you imagine if Biden or Obama had sent in the national guard to deal with protestors in a red state who were just protesting one of his policies? Mitch McConnell would passed a bill to reinstate burning at the stake as a punishment for impeachment. 🔥

Hot take: Elon Musk doesn’t really have anything against the Big Beautiful Bill. He just realizes it’s a shitty bill and it’s going to be wildly unpopular and potentially career ending for anyone who doesn’t successfully distance themself from it.

Vietnam vets’ annual ceremony relocated from D.C. due to Army parade The upcoming military parade made it “impossible” to host an annual Vietnam veterans ceremony on the National Mall, where it has occurred for more than three decades.

Draft-dodger Donald Trump wants an authoritarian-style military parade for his birthday and is pushing an annual ceremony for actual Vietnam War veterans out of DC to make it happen.

Petition to Impeach and Remove Jefferson Griffin from NC Court of Appeals We the people of North Carolina must make our voices heard so that this never happens again.  Jefferson Griffin lost this time but he was a just a breath away from winning and forever crippling o...

It’s time we show these craven politicians that their anti-democratic actions have consequences.

Just checking in: Anyone get their DOGE refund check yet? Bueller? Bueller?…

Was the College of Cardinals trying to troll the Trump administration? 1. They pick an American…who isn’t Trump to be pope. 2. Pope Leo is 69 years old which they know happens to be every single member of Trump’s cabinet’s favorite number? Suspicious!

Got Eric to stop saying supposably and killed woke Pope

Donald Trump, I fixed it for you!

North Carolina Democrats just re-elected Anderson Clayton as Chair for the 2025-2027 term. Together, we will continue to build a strong future for all North Carolinians! Onward!

Inflation is a feedback loop in which higher prices force workers to demand higher wages, resulting in higher prices, then higher wages. Today, as prices skyrocket and corporate profits soar, wages remain pretty flat. GOP blames inflation, but it's price gouging and greedflation.

Kristi Noem Says $200 Million DHS Ad Campaign Thanking Trump Was His Idea Donald Trump’s Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said he instructed her to make ads that “thank me for closing the border.”

It’s a shame all the classic science fiction writers from the 50s-70s that Elon Musk clearly idolizes are all dead. It would be really gratifying to see a Harlan Ellison or an Isaac Asimov sit Elon down and explain to him how profoundly he has misunderstood the lessons from their works.

CDC scientific report resumes publication after unprecedented pause But three studies about bird flu remain on hold even as the outbreak spreads.

uhhh kinda feels like maybe they should publish those birds flu studies?

So tired of his glib partisan hackery. This proud North Carolinian can’t wait to vote Thom straight out of office. And take your mom jeans with you!

I don’t know if we’ll still be doing those quaint election things anymore in 2028 but I would kill to see Josh Shapiro debate JD Vance. I’m 100% sure Shapiro would trounce him and I’m fairly confident Vance might cry in the end.

I’m going to be honest. Shutting down CFPB, OSHA, and USAID after they investigated Starlink. I’m seeing a lot of Musk priorities fulfilled, not too many Trump ones. What’s next the Department to be EOed into existence the “Come on, Taylor Swift, just go on one date with Elon. Please!” Bureau?

I had planned to just lay back and let Trump dig his own grave for a while and then like the first freakin’ week he was like “you know what sucks? The separation of powers spelled out in the constitution. We’re going to go ahead and do away with that.” (Sigh) Back to the fight I guess!

Elon Musk has broken the law. He is not the treasury secretary. He is essentially a private citizen. If I showed up to the treasury and tried what he did, I’d be arrested. He should be arrested.

Get them out of government. Most not old enough to be elected to anything. One suspects they are part of Musk’s gaming posse.

I’ve always been a huge jewel fan but honestly she can go fuck herself now. That apology only made it worse.

Screenshot of a tweet from Acyn ((@Acyn) The tweet quotes Vance saying, 'When you don't have the best standards in who you're hiring, it means on the one hand, you're not getting the best people in government. But on the other hand, it puts stresses on the people who are already there.' Below the tweet, there is an image of a person speaking at a podium with the White House seal in the background. The person is wearing a suit and red tie, and there are American flags on either side of the podium. The broadcast is live on C-SPAN2.

We don’t have any standards on who we’re putting in charge of our government now. And that’s putting stress on the people already there.

Can we still donate?

They feel if he can have all his faults and still get to the White House surely they have a chance. I have no idea how we do this but I think we need to find a way, not to tear him down in their minds but to lift them up. (Part 3)

Coming out of the pandemic, people are disappointed with their finances, their careers, their physical health, etc. and social media only serves to reinforce (falsely) how mush better everyone else is doing. Trump represents, for them, the embodiment of every fault they see in themselves. (Part 2)
