I lol'd at this.😆
Told my wife to have dinner ready at 6 or I'll obliterate her entire civilization.

So anyway, she now charges me a fee to use the bathroom that used to be free, and I didn't get any dinner, but I'm pretty sure I won that exchange.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

What do Donald Trump and foreign dictators have in common? ✅Attack free and fair elections ✅Employ voter suppression tactics All of these leaders are pursuing a broader strategy to prevent those likely to support the opposition, thereby threatening democracy, R. Maxwell Bone writes.

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Yeah, one of the many nightmare scenarios facing us is that a badly led and mostly destroyed intelligence infrastructure fails to prevent a major terrorist attack and that attack is then used as justification to speed up the fascism.

#CancelSpotify. Delete the app. Don't use it. They are proudly promoting ICE ads, and the CEO is just a trash human being. Make an example of one company. All they worship is money. The color green trumps all others.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

A mere 19 months ago, Trump’s net worth was $2.6B, and he owed hundreds of millions in civil penalties. Today, Trump is worth $7.1B, and most of the civil penalties have been tossed out. Presidential politics is by far the most lucrative business venture of Trump’s career. trib.al/BZC3lZB

Trump’s tariffs aren’t taxes on foreign countries—they’re a tax on you. Higher prices on groceries, cars, and fuel are the real cost of his trade wars. I break it all down—from his first Admin to the present. Read, share & know who’s really paying. www.livingitwitholiviatroye.com/p/the-tariff...

In the interest of saving your valuable time, here’s a summary of Trump’s address last night : “He lied and said some crazy sh*t.” Based on the lies the president and his minions are spewing about Social Security , they’re going to try to gut it in exchange for tax cuts for the ultra wealthy.
