If Pete Hegseth were in charge of D-Day, every Allied soldier would have drowned on the way to the beach, and Trump would have secretly alerted Hitler that it was coming.

A friend of ours was able to be a test subject for an mRNA vaccine for an aggressive form of breast cancer. Completely worked. It is one of the greatest miracles of science and like 40% of the country turned it into The Jab because they are mushheaded simpletons.

Is it me, or does it seem like Tim Walz is the candidate Republicans are most afraid of in 2028?

None of these people are particularly clever, thoughtful, or disciplined. It's the most ridiculous cabal of nincompoops ever assembled.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

One of the most important charts in the world - from Rush Doshi in the New York Times. Without its allies, the United States is woefully behind China in metrics of raw economic power. Too bad the US president does not seem to get it. 1/

I call bullshit. They are just making shit up now and while we are at it there are legitimate questions about Tyler Robinson now as well. Starting with he didn't have a rifle when he went up the stairs to the roof and he didn't have one when he jumped off the roof.

The Skydance - Paramount merger moved forward because Paramount fired Colbert. Firing Kimmel is how Nexstar will get Trump's FCC to approve their purchase of Tegna broadcasting.

People are slamming Mamdani for “trying to do too much at the age of 33” and frankly they have a point because we have zero examples from history of a 33-year-old brown immigrant who opposed the elites & condemned greed while demanding access to food, healthcare, housing, & loving all thy neighbors.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Democrats voting with crypto bros and talking about "abundance" instead of actually talking about the policies people would actually vote for is, at best, negligence and at worst, sabotage.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien." Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway. This is Fascism.

I've been saying for a while that it's only a matter of time before Union organizers become targets. I'm reality, if we don't become targets, we're probably not doing our jobs.

VERY IMPORTANT: This is just a trick. It's a way for Democratic senator to say they oppose the bill while letting it pass. It's not much of a trick. I mean, everyone will see it. But still this is simply a way of hoodwinking constituents. If they want to vote for it just vote for it.

I feel as if we're capable of acknowledging that a one-day boycott is mostly symbolic without becoming contemptuous and dismissive of people finding a little meaning and comfort in such a symbol. The scorn seems petty.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
