To RFK Jr. and all the anti-vaxxers: this is your handiwork. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/o...

Heck, I'd gladly pay for a chance to grab a mallet or whatever and take a few whacks at these monstrosities.

My Senator, Dave McCormick, is apparently an awesome judge of character. Are you sure you and Kash Patel were out there FIGHTING fentanyl, Dave? Is this why you never answer your phone, either?

“Part of me is glad he’s wasting his time on bullshit, because it’s less dangerous for rule of law, for the American public,” one official told me, “but it also means we don’t have a real functioning FBI director.”

I learned it as the "six-pack rule." Which kind of unreasonably gets one's hopes up wrt ppt.

New Treasury Report Shows Trump Administration Officially Kills Popular Direct File Tool as a Favor to Tax Prep Industry - Economic Security Project Washington, D.C. – In a quietly posted Treasury Department report to Congress, and subsequent emails from IRS officials to state tax officials as reported by TaxNotes and NextGov, the Trump Administra...

This tax filing season, Donald Trump rigged the system for his billionaire buddies and against hard-working Americans.

While he made it easier for his wealthy friends to cheat the system, he killed the program that allowed Americans to file their taxes for free.

I am begging people: for the love of god, stop sharing "news updates" from Polymarket. They're a slop org. They share bullshit for engagement. Don't spread their misinfo.

Wow. Maybe this meeting could have just been an email.

Only one guy who makes deals badly...

She reportedly parted ways with Bezos with a jaw-dropping $38.3 billion in Amazon stock. Their divorce settlement included a 4 % stake in the online retail giant or 19.7 million shares. Under the agreement, Bezos kept 75% of the couple's Amazon stock, along with voting control of her shares. Jan 11, 2023

MacKenzie Scott has given away over $19 billion in the last 5 years and experts say she's 'changed entire fie... MacKenzie Scott acknowledged another $2 billion in donations as 2024 comes to a close.

MacKenzie Scott, worth $41.1 billion, is on a philanthropic tear and has donated an estimated 46% of her net worth.

Just to give a sense of the insane scale of billions of dollars…MacKenzie Scott got about $38 billion after divorcing Bezos in 2019. She has become the world’s most generous philanthropist, giving away over $19 billion…and she’s currently wealthier than she started.

Just. Tax. Them.

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

Dire, all of it. And this: "A whole sector of mainstream media now functions as spirit mediums attempting to interpret Trump’s actions to try to fit them into the context of competent leadership and coherent and consistent agendas." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Fetterman shrugs off concerns about rising gas prices, blames media The thought that there is an "energy crisis" is "just not true," said Fetterman.

Paying more at the pump, PA? Our senior senator, John Fetterman, thinks it’s just a media hoax, bringing new meaning to “gaslighting.” www.pennlive.com/politics/202...

Viktor Orban accomplished so much of what the Trump movement wants to accomplish here

he ruled for 16 years and rewrote the rules in his favor

and still, they threw him out

and you know what? they did it by voting

don’t let anyone tell you voting doesn’t matter

So, we're pirates now?

A reminder that this is the President of the United States, who spent last night attending a UFC fight while Iran controlled the Strait of Hormuz and his Vice President and some buddies were in Pakistan trying to find the diplomatic equivalent of Super Glue to fix what his war shattered.

Shorter Trump: No extortion except by me

"Every Major U.S. Airline Has Now Raised Baggage Fees to Cover Surging Fuel Prices" As you pay increased bag fees please make sure to thank the GOP for their Iran war. This is 100% because of them!

The "duped voter" narrative is a comforting myth. If only we had better messaging.

The reality is tens of millions of voters looked at a platform of mass deportation, ethnic cleansing, state violence, and the dismantling of civil rights, clearly understood it, and said, "Yes, that is what I want."

We’re all clear that this absurd two week excuse doesn’t mean we forget about impeaching the rotten orange bastard, amirite?

Or are we gonna let this happen again and again? Because it will, you know.

What we fail to say is also a message. Not calling for Trump's impeachment and removal conveys he has not committed offenses that warrant these actions. Or, at best, that you feel he has and are unwilling to do your duty and use the remedy written into our Constitution for presidential crimes.

I am glad he did not commit yet another atrocity, but the fact that no congressional Rs spoke up or opposed him is fucking bleak.

Two weeks to remove him. Now.

Great, we get a breather. Remove him immediately.

Right, but I understand they are wearing buttons and picket squares so that changes everything. Those are the rules.

No one who loves violence this much should ever be in charge of the military

"No stupid rules of engagement"

Sorry, America, but as a democracy we own the actions of our leader. We may despise Trump. But his actions are on us, will be associated with us by history and the world. Our democratic and institutional failures have put a genocidal monster on the world stage.

The next administration is going to have a hell of a time attempting denazification throughout the federal bureaucracy, especially the security services. Distinguishing yourself for refusing illegal orders is a rocket ticket to the top.
