Someday soon, he'll get his parade. We'll ALL watch it. The whole world will remember where they were. The cheering and applause will be insane. We'll have tears in our eyes, and there will be commemorative merchandise. It will be the best funeral ever.

He's not just an exploding car salesman and the unelected President, he's also the Surgeon General.

The Government Is Shutting Down Because Elon Musk Has Factories in China
There’s a mundane reason for the late-term chaos, and it’s called a conflict of interest.

The nominee to take over the FBI has publicly published a list of innocent Americans he plans to target if given the power. This is more important than finger wagging about norms and traditions.

The appointment of Stephen Miller as Trump’s deputy chief of staff is an ominous sign of how extreme the Trump White House will get. Miller’s core focus has been immigration policy. He will oversee illegal deportations, asylum seeker expulsions, and anti-immigration policy.

Exactly November 27th. I guess now it’s a tradition for Elon @elonmusk to spout off with some absurd conspiracy. Bruh, maybe spend some time with your family and take time to be thankful for your blessings.

Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m old fashioned, but I’m pretty sure our president shouldn’t be a rapist, our DNI shouldn’t be on a TSA watchlist list and our head of counterintelligence should probably be able to pass a background check. Right?

Donald Trump’s Most Dangerous Cabinet Pick
Pete Hegseth considers himself to be at war with basically everybody to Trump’s left, and it is by no means clear that he means war metaphorically.
