I hope the takeover of InfoWars by @theonion.com and @timheidecker.bsky.social that resulted from the bankruptcy brought on by Alex Jones’ evil attacks on the victims of Sandy Hook brings you as much joy as it does me.
🧵 White House issued a Christian nationalist proclamation:
"Together, we will honor Holy Scripture, renew our faith, usher in a historic resurgence of religion on American shores, and rededicate the United States as one Nation under God."
Why is this dangerous?

Karoline Leavitt tweet about Trump's Freedom 250 Rededicate event on May 17, "rededicating our country as One Nation under God."

The event's stated purpose is "rededicating our country as One Nation under God."
Corporate sponsors of Freedom 250 / Rededicate include Deloitte, Mastercard, Scotts Miracle-Gro and United Airlines.

They will never boo Russia. But they will boo our allies.
"The Flynn settlement is an ominous test case as the President and his political allies are all lining up for their free-government-money payouts."
It "offers a road map for" Trump "to keep paying out his political underlings and private militiamen with taxpayer money."

The grift will never end. They keep testing how far they can go and find out they can go farther.
Plus! Abortion is time sensitive, so it’s about DAMN TIME that urgent care centers are getting in the medication abortion game! Read up, rage out, and get in the fight!
Going back to 1958, the Pope has spoken out against war AND was never attacked by our president..until now. "Never again war! Never again hatred and intolerance! War is a defeat for humanity." • Pope John Paul I1 "War is a useless slaughter and a failure of humanity" Pope Benedict AV/ "Never again war! With war everything is lost. War is always a defeat" - Pope Francis "Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life" - Pope Leo N/I
#Trump attacking #PopeLeo is unprecedented, yet par for the course for this deranged imbecile.
There’s a special place in h👿ll waiting for TFG…..

It’s frustrating, but not unexpected, that the administration has continued to downplay China and Russia’s involvement in helping Iran target US troops.
If/when this ceasefire fails, I would expect to see a big initial strike from Iran - they’ve had plenty of time to plan.

MEMORANDUM OPINION
April 16 * 2026 [Dkt. #65, 71]
On March 31, 2026, I granted the motion of the National Trust for Historic Preservation in the United States ("National Trust') for a preliminary injunction to halt
construction of a ballroom on White House grounds as ultra vires. In recognition of the
national security and presidential security concerns raised by the ongoing construction
project, I excluded from the scope of the injunction "actions strictly necessary to ensure
the safety and security of the White House and its grounds, including the ballroom
construction site, and provide for the personal safety of the President and his staff."
Defendants now seek to turn this exception on its head and unreasonably insist that the
entire ballroom project may proceed. Based on the record before me, I cannot possibly
agree, but I will clarify the scope of the injunction as described below.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreibireds4jsufjxxjnd27nwqkom42vhzhwdalcxogbtbckb4gbplm4)

Trump admin doubles down on denial when confronted with inconvenient facts When U.S. President Donald Trump spoke at the 2026 World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland in January, he angrily berated the United States' European allies for using green energy and claimed, without any evidence, t
This is crazy if correct. No10 and Keir Starmer were reportedly unaware that Peter Mandelson failed his security vetting. How is such a thing even possible? With all the questions that were apparently asked of Mandelson surely someone would have thought to ask “did he pass his security vetting?”

I can’t believe I’m posting Candy. We truly are living in bizarre times.
HOW EMBARASSING! Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during a Pentagon sermon. 🤣🤣
This is old news I think
Don’t care
It cheered me up

BREAKING: We just won our antitrust trial against LiveNation and Ticketmaster.
Live Nation has raked in billions in profits from an illegal monopoly that coerces venues, restricts artists, and exploits fans.
This is a massive win in the fight for fairness for local venues, artists, and fans.
BOYLE: The CBO says the big beautiful bill eliminates healthcare coverage for more than 15 million Americans. Are they really all, according to you, illegals and defrauding the system. That's really your position?
RUSS VOUGHT: Yes
BOYLE: That's laughable!
I can sum up Pete Hegseth’s comments this morning:
Hegseth called a press conference today to attack the press.
Again.
This GOP war with the Pope might be the new dumbest thing they’ve done, and as usual, it’s completely self-inflicted.
The president of the United States of America is completely delusional & demented. Please remove at once.
THIS IS NOT NORMAL!

Would someone alert Piggy and whoever is in charge of FEMA that Guam is a US Territory and that its residents are US Citizens!
Also, remind Whiskey Pete that there are two military bases there, too.
honestly it’s hilarious that he’s trying to fight the pope and the pope is like “I don’t think about you at all”
I did some research to try and figure out when my death date would be if there had been no treatment for my cancer. I don't know why I assumed it would be some date in the future, but, in fact, I passed the middle of the "no treatment survival" bell curve more than a year ago. Thanks chemo.
