It's pretty crazy how we have both the World Cup and America 250 this year and almost no one cares about them because the administration has wholly sucked the joy out of even momentous national events.

We need to boycott the advertisers on CBS. Let's start with one company that can be impacted. And don’t buy anything they're selling. And we have to let CBS and other companies know that this is a two-way street. They have to feel that.

FBI spent our tax dollars collecting this voluminous file on Epstein/other rich guys and never did a thing with the information?

A cartoon showing multiple FBI agents with cameras and notepads circled around a group of sea shells. Yellow crime scene tape circles the group. While outside the circle being ignored by the FBI are the bloody bodies of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Imagine being president of the United States, yet so easily triggered. It’s gotta be miserable for him. He always feels like a failure even when he won’t the presidency. His dad did a number on him. He’s still a little boy. It would be heartbreaking if he wasn’t damaging the country

ICE has violated almost 100 court orders. Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order. That's an out-of-control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
