It is objectively bad for democracy that both blue and red states are doing extreme gerrymanders.
But the only feasible solution — a national ban on partisan gerrymandering — has only been endorsed by one party. And it's not the one complaining about Virginia right now.
For the billionth time: DONALD TRUMP LIES AS HE BREATHES. Do not believe ANYTHING Trump says. Too much of the media in this country sucks bcuz they stopped covering his lying yrs ago. Only pay attention to & believe what’s actually happening.👇
Joe "Not Political" Rogan
Friday night Tequila Tweet: Here’s the sad, fucking truth: Iran’s leadership is more believable & more trustworthy than the President of the United States. Hey America, that’s the price we pay for electing a president who lies as he breathes. We. Can’t. Believe. A. Fucking. Thing. Trump. Says.
HARDER: The Trump admin allows coal plants to emit twice as much mercury. How are these actions consistent w/your agenda to make kids healthy?
RFK Jr: I'm not familiar w/ what's happening at EPA, so I'd have to ask Zeldin
H: You made a career out of fighting mercury pollution
RFK Jr: Call Zeldin
Donald Trump LIED. Again. He LIED. He LIED. Trump LIED again. He always LIES. He LIES every time he opens his mouth. He LIED about the Pope. He LIES all the time. He. Only. Knows. How. To. LIE. And we all need to say that. We all need to use that word - he LIES.

Reagan’s OMB Director:
Exclusive: The CDC delayed a report showing covid-19 vaccines reduced emergency visits and hospitalizations in healthy adults by half.
The move raises concerns about the Trump administration downplaying vaccine benefits. https://wapo.st/4sZ3ZOt
It’s TACO Tuesday!
So, Trump has agreed stop bombing Iran if they agree to open the strait that wasn’t closed until Trump started bombing Iran?
Screenshot of a post on X (Twitter) by former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (@FmrRepMTG) with a verified badge. Her post begins, “On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted.” She criticizes Donald Trump and members of his administration, saying those who claim to be Christian should “fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God” and stop “worshipping the President,” calling Trump “insane” and saying his supporters are “complicit.” She says she is not defending Iran but argues the U.S. and Israel started an “unprovoked war” based on false nuclear claims, notes that Israel has nuclear weapons, and says Israel can defend itself without U.S. involvement. She criticizes Trump’s threats to bomb power plants and bridges, saying it harms Iranian civilians. Invoking Easter, she references Jesus’ teachings about forgiveness and loving enemies, and states, “Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.” She calls for peace, says escalating war is hurting people, and concludes, “This is NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024… This is not making America great again, this is evil.” Below her post is an embedded screenshot of a Truth Social post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump), also with a verification badge. Trump’s post reads: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP.” The post shows engagement metrics of “84 ReTruths” and “335 Likes,” with a timestamp of “4/5/26, 8:03 AM.”
Marjorie Taylor Greene urges Christians in Trump's administration to stand up against him: “This is not making America great again, this is evil.”
Would be nice to have government officials who don’t fall for AI slop
NYT: Iran War Live Updates: Trump Escalates Threat to Hit Iranian Power Plants After U.S. Rescues Downed Airman President Trump used an expletive-laden social media post to taunt Iranian leaders, saying that the United States would attack if they did not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
NYT: President Trump on Sunday escalated his threats to bomb Iranian power plants within the next two days and taunted the country’s leaders in an expletive-laden social media post. Mr. Trump, seemingly emboldened by the successful U.S. rescue of an American airman in Iran over the weekend, issued a new ultimatum to Iran to end its chokehold over the Strait of Hormuz, a major Persian Gulf waterway for the transport of oil and gas, by Apr. 6. If Iran’s government did not, he said, U.S. forces would target the country’s energy infrastructure, which supplies power for millions of civilians. “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” Mr. Trump wrote on social media. The president has previously postponed his deadline to attack twice and the Omani foreign ministry said on Sunday that officials had discussed how to reopen the Strait of Hormuz with Iranian counterparts without reaching a definitive agreement.
“Praise be to Allah,” Mr. Trump added, before signing off in all caps. Iran has threatened to retaliate by intensifying its attacks on critical infrastructure in Israel and Arab states that are allied with the United States. An escalation could further derail the lives of civilians throughout the region and add to worries about the global economy, which has been rattled by soaring energy prices since the start of the war. Over the past two days, the U.S. military has been in a race with Iranian armed forces to find the missing airman after an F-15E jet was shot down over Iran on Friday, in the first known instance of a U.S. combat aircraft since the start of the war. The plane’s pilot was quickly rescued. But a second officer was stranded in Iran and injured in the incident. American commandoes found the airman deep inside Iranian territory under the cover of darkness.
The New York Times deleted Trump’s “open the fuckin’ strait” line to make him look less insane
Their write-up falsely says his post says only “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” and “Praise be to Allah”
I'm sure the oil execs are thrilled about this and will totally go along with it
It gets worse. Prayers up 🙏
Leavitt contradicts Jesus, who explicitly says in Matthew 6:5-6 to not do the exact thing she does here
Trump told a lengthy story last week about negotiating over the price of Sharpie pens.
The company says it has no record of any such conversation.
"We don't have any information about the conversation described."
Simmons: The president hasn't done anything to ask of his friends to put in the pot. They're only asking the American people to pay more at the gas station.
Lyman: He’s giving up his salary
Mockler: Trump doesn't take his salary, but he's made $4 billion on cryptocurrency..
Professors & university staff were targeted & fired for less than this just a few months ago.
Donald Trump's Pentagon is going to buy millions of dollars of drones from Donald Trump's sons.
But *do* go on more about the corruption of Joe and Hunter Biden.
Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is actively meeting with Saudi officials to raise billions for his investment firm — while simultaneously serving as Middle East peace envoy.
The world pays the price of war while Trump's family reaps the riches.
Nothing like a good god fearing Christian!
Joe Biden was absolutely pilloried when he said this...but about oil prices, not about service members dying.
FIFA Peace Prize material if I ever seen it
When US President Donald Trump addressed the American people on Tuesday night, he claimed that Iran is “working to build missiles that will soon reach the United States of America.”
That assertion is not backed up by US intelligence, sources told CNN. https://cnn.it/4tZsgoD
Oh.
BREAKING: Trump: "The lives of American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties - that often happens in war."
You sound like an unhinged person if you in plain words describe what’s happening, but the Trump admin demanded Anthropic’s AI be able to kill things for it w/out human approval and also do mass surveillance.
Anthropic said no, and now the admin is trying to destroy the company in retaliation.
