Sara is MAGA.

Trump, who bankrupted his own airline, is about to use your money to buy Spirit Airlines


I hate it here

Tulsi’s next

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

GOP - *gerrymanders*

DEMS - hey stop that no fair

GOP - *gerrymanders even more*

DEMS - we mean it we’re gonna sue

SCOTUS - *legalizes gerrymandering completely*

DEMS - *start gerrymandering*

GOP - HEY STOP THAT NO FAIR!!!! 😭

“For 250 years, it has never been the case that either of America’s two political parties has been anti-Preamble, anti-Declaration of Independence, or anti-Constitution . . . until, that is, the past 10 years, when the Republican Party led by Donald Trump has acted as if it were all three.”

The Most Important Speech of Political and Constitutional Philosophy That Never Should Have Been Given The speech that Justice Clarence Thomas gave last week at the University of Texas could prove to be the single most important speech of political and constitutional philosophy that never should have b...

“the political and constitutional philosophies he described and embraced are neither doctrinal conservatism nor Republican nor political conservatism, and they are manifestly not constitutional conservatism.” open.substack.com/pub/judgelut...

April 17, 2026 This morning, after a 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon took effect Thursday, Iran announced the Strait of Hormuz was open to commercial ships.

“Iran’s top negotiator, speaker of parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, posted on social media that Trump had made seven claims in an hour, and all seven of them were false.”

“He cheated on the golf course. He cheated on his taxes. He cheated on his wives. He cheated the business contractors he stiffed. He tried to cheat in the 2020 election. And now he’s trying to cheat on the 2026 midterms - because he knows he can’t win.”

Given divine powers, the first thing Trump does is resurrect best friend Jeffrey Epstein.

Anthropic’s Mythos Will Force a Cybersecurity Reckoning—Just Not the One You Think The new AI model is being heralded—and feared—as a hacker’s superweapon. Experts say its arrival is a wake-up call for developers who have long made security an afterthought.

“Mythos and models like it will accelerate the pace at which attackers will be able to group vulnerabilities into sets that can work together. Some people are going to be grumpy about it for a long time, but I do think the dynamic has shifted.” - Edera Zenla

There's always some dude who is like "Well, the right got Kavanaugh so why can't we have--"

BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT OUR OWN FUCKING KAVANAUGH, ZERO KAVANAUGHS IS ENOUGH KAVANAUGHS.

Netanyahu openly admitted, on the first day of the strikes, that this was a long-held dream come true. He used those words.

Art of the Deal doesn’t work on Iran … what else you got dummy?

“ICE and TSA are part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The agencies have historically shared information related to national security ​threats, but they began focusing on routine immigration arrests last year as part of Trump’s mass deportation effort.” www.reuters.com/world/ice-ar...

Trump’s new budget adds an extra $500 billion to fund wars abroad — about $3,700 more for every household in America — while cutting health, jobs, housing, and education.

Put simply, it takes more of your money for foreign wars, while making life in America even more unaffordable.

Everyone but Trump Understands What He’s Done Allied leaders know that any positive gesture they make will count for nothing.

Trump has insulted and tariffed his European allies, persuaded Denmark to prepare for a US invasion and, by pressuring Ukraine and not Russia, encouraged Putin to keep fighting. All of which he has forgotten.

DRW: “.. The 6-month average for payrolls has been negative in four of the last five months. .. This might matter because every time the 6-month average for Nonfarm Payrolls falls below zero it occurs during a recession, usually in the opening months of the recession.”

"The Secretary of Defense is a disgraced major that was kicked out of the DC National Guard."

My fave!

There's a long, bad journalistic tradition: All conservative grass-roots political movements are fascinating heartland phenomena, all progressive grass-roots political movements are ineffectual bleating. This one is written off as powered by white female college grads--the wine-moms slur, basically.

The economic lesson of Covid is that you can save the economy even during a huge shock by applying massive deficit-financed stimulus of the kind the Democratic House passed in the CARES Act (and future relief acts). The lesson Wall Street took was "Trump is magic and it'll all work out eventually"

The Iran war is exposing some of those gaps. The State Department and FBI have shed employees with specialized expertise on Iranian energy and counterintelligence. The Department of Defense gutted the office working on civilian casualty minimization — a fact became newly salient following a U.S. airstrike on a girl’s school in Iran. The National Security Council’s director for Iran, Nate Swanson, laid out exactly how Iran would respond to a bombing attack — unfortunately he was fired last year at the direction of online nutjob Laura Loomer. That expertise might be useful right about now.

Gee, maybe it was a bad idea for Trump to fire the people in government who knew what the fuck they were talking about when it came to Iran.

incredible job, idiots!

Are you tired of winning yet?

TRUMP TO 🧑‍🌾 FARMERS: “I just gave you $12 BILLION — you make enough money it doesn’t matter to you, right?”

Reminder: His trade war crushing farmers is why the bailout was even necessary.

‘Sausage of financial risk’

We don’t need food, right?

Counterpoint, Heritage: If you’re pretending non-citizens vote despite your own study showing otherwise, you’re probably trying to cheat.
