The party that claims to be bravely defending “Western Civilization” from its supposed imminent destruction by barbarian hordes, has empowered a guy who eats roadkill to shut down research on one of the most significant scientific breakthroughs in decades.
Millions of American voters wanted to be villains. They came to believe it’s the key to success, while goodness is weak, woke, loser stuff, done only to signal.
Offered the option of unvarnished villainy, they enthusiastically took it. Seeing others suffer more made them feel big.
And here we are.
again very funny to think that a critical pro trump message in 2024 was that he wouldn’t start world war iii
Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY!
The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.
I guess we're just waiting around to see if this demented psychopath kills everyone: defector.com/i-guess-were...
The truest post I've seen today...
The President is threatening genocide and possible use of nuclear weapons against Iran.
It’s clear the President has continued to decline and is not fit to lead. The members of his Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment immediately.
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
I don't think people fully appreciate how apocalyptic things are for US science. I haven't had any new funding since 2024, but I'm still ok since typical grants are for three years. This means next year I will be completely out of funding and will have to fire everyone in the lab. It's not great.
Republicans are in charge of the Senate
Republicans are in charge of the House
Republicans are in charge of the Presidency
Republicans are in charge of the Supreme Court
Republicans are to blame for everything
Have to impeach him before the election in Nov.
"people are starving but THE ECONOMY is doing great"
hey if "the economy" is completely decoupled from the welfare of the people, WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT OF THE ECONOMY
Do it!
I feel like I’m losing my mind. How on earth can you have a post about the state of the union without mentioning all of the absolutely insane crises he has created over the past year. We have an aging pedophile with fascist tendencies, and y’all are treating him like this is normal.
Rough few days for @fctulsa.bsky.social fans! 😢
Bummer for @fctulsa.bsky.social fans
this particular line is maybe the best statement of purpose i have seen for those of us who want a more militant opposition to this administration
They said "free speech" and "academic freedom" but never believed in either and now in texas you need a permission slip to mention race in class and they're fine with it. Might not have worked if people with large platforms weren't furious about marginal increases of black people in their offices
Christi Noem should testify under oath in Congress and explain why she lied about the facts around the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
Good statement. Hope the congressman can convince more of his colleagues to say the same.
ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.
Time to put grandpa in a home I’m sorry GOP
It’s really too bad that Trump’s cabinet are all spineless worms or equally crazy because “the President has gone insane and is going to destroy the transatlantic alliance because they didn’t give him a Nobel Peace Prize” is kind of exactly the thing we have a 25th Amendment for
The one thing authoritarian leaders usually have going for them is the general apathy of the majority when they make a move solely against a marginal group in society.
But when they occupy an entire city with clumsy, brutal force, that just forces everyone out of that apathy.
Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.
A citizen.
Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.
"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.
Agents took and sold his phone
And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.
Whether it's Barack Obama asking for Dijon mustard or Donald Trump screaming "fuck you" in a Ford plant at someone calling him a "pedophile protector," presidential norms have been challenged in the 21st century
