Exactly

We are screwed

Same as it ever was

Chip was my congressional Rep for awhile. Awful. Before him, it was Roger (gimme that sweet, free PPP $$$ - one of the wealthiest members of Congress) Williams. Also, awful.

Instead of a Bible verse, I will share a meme about how it's time to flip-the-tables. Enjoy

"What Trump possesses instead is something rarer and more dangerous than most of his critics have been willing to name: he may be the greatest con artist and mob operator the world has ever produced — quite simply the most effective sociopath to ever walk this earth."

What Your Cat Understands About Donald Trump That Most Democrats Don't I offer these posts freely, but your support is necessary and appreciated.

"When Dems dismiss Donald Trump as too stupid to be effective, they lose. They’ve been losing that bet for a decade, and they will keep losing it for the same reason a person might call a shark stupid for not doing algebra. The shark isn’t trying to do algebra."

Not sure wtf we're doing but it definitely doesn't feel like winning.

The number of deaths in ICE detention centers this year is already greater than the number of deaths in the entirety of 2024.

The Trump Administration’s negligence is killing people.

There is no excuse for this many deaths under their watch.

Yep, he did not win the election (thanks Leon) and the fake assignation attempt in Butler was a stunt to drive up ratings for the GOP convention and to take oxygen away from Kamala Harris. We are living through Putin's bamboozlement of the US. I hope we make it to the other side.

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

If the Pope is suppose to stay out of political matters..

Shouldn’t the politicians stay the fuck out of religious matters?? 🤔

Wow. This is the FBI Director.

Several officials say Kash Patel’s drinking has been a recurring concern across the government.

At the FBI, it’s called reasonable suspicion. That’s enough to trigger testing or administrative action. So what are we waiting for?

Ossoff: I don’t know who placed those trades, but I’ll tell you this: the SEC better find out. And if they won’t, when you elect this new majority in Congress and you give us gavels and subpoenas, we will.

Traders placed over $1bn in perfectly timed bets on the Iran war. What is going on? Suspicious wagers on the US-Israel war in Iran are creating huge windfalls and raising concerns among lawmakers

I have a real good idea what's going on.

Pope Leo today: "Blessed are the peacemakers."

"Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth."

What’s with the spike on top of the Trump-Trump delusion?

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater.

This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning.

Never doubt your power to change the system.

Someone is dying in ICE custody EVERY WEEK.

And that doesn't even include the American citizens ICE has killed in the middle of our streets in broad daylight.

It could not be more clear, ICE needs guardrails, not a blank check from Congress.

Why?

Given the huge early turnout in Hungary odds seem very high that Magyar wil defeat Orbán very decisively; the question in that case would be whether Orbán goes with the Ukrainian electoral interference lie he has been preparing and whether foreign actors support him.
