In a nutshell. 😊
Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?
I don’t think it’s just he’s avoiding the Epstein files. I think he out of this goddamn mind.

If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.
Alt text: Screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Abdulkhaleq Abdulla (@Abdulkhaleq_UAE), with a verified badge. The post reads: “This is what I told Reuters today: The UAE no longer needs America to defend it, as it has proven during the Iranian aggression that it is capable of defending itself with distinction.

NEW: UAE scholar Abdulkhaleq Abdulla says the UAE no longer needs U.S. protection, calling American bases a “burden, not a strategic asset” and suggesting they should be closed. The United States’ standing in the region has been obliterated.

A country that produced an Obama and a Mamdani must have a lot more promise ahead to give to not only America but to the world.
DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.

Dear Media:
Blindly quoting the President without fact-checking or context is just misinformation with a press pass.
We don’t need stenographers; we need journalists. Do your job.
Over 40,000 people are currently incarcerated for Cannabis. Not a SINGLE Epstein files co-conspirator has been arrested.
And rape and sex trafficking children are wrong now? Does that mean they’ll take action on the Epstein files?
Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell could not have sold children for sex without rich perverts buying them for sex. I feel this needs to be emphasized much more than it is.

French MPs withdrew a bill against 'new forms of antisemitism' after 700,000 people signed a petition opposing it. The bill would have effectively banned criticism of Israel — It is attempt to weaponize antisemitism to shield Israel from criticism

Mike Levin: It should be a much bigger story that JD Vance flew to Hungary, stood on a campaign stage, and told voters to return a head of government widely documented for human rights abuses and democratic backsliding. Then, after his candidate lost, Vance said what had happened during the Hungarian campaign was “one of the worst examples of foreign election interference that I’ve ever seen or ever even read about.” Was he describing himself?
Says “provably” but it’s always worth putting in the full details 🙂

How do they continuously topple each other's stupidity 🙄
Wait… is Mike Johnson Christsplaining the Pope?
Temporary Squeaker Mike is so dumb it hurts.
I’ve more or less stopped finding them funny as the various situations they’ve caused are so serious and harmful. I do chuckle though when they want to “teach” the Pope about concepts like that.
