People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.
This administration is filled with the absolute dumbest, meanest, cruelest pieces of shit.
And they're so *proud* to be dumb, mean, cruel pieces of shit too. They delight in it. They brag about it.
It's vice signaling as a way of life.
Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.
Obviously, the top denaturalization priority should be Elon Musk, who constantly breaks the law (including the ongoing poisoning of Memphis), promotes bigotry and extremism, and lied during his naturalization by falsely claiming he had never been in the U.S. unlawfully.
And yet, I doubt it will be.
Anyone still quibbling that this isn't fascism?
Ro Khanna tweeting that Democrats should embrace Musk and should have embraced RFK Jr.
I'm not the most unbending person politically speaking. I understand strange bedfellows and big tents and all of that practical stuff. But you have to have some principles and no principled person can look at Musk and RFK and say "if only we embraced them things would be better." Fuck this guy.
End Citizens United
Let's go. Pistols at dawn. Settle this shit, you losers. Alexander Hamilton thinks you're both pussies
As Trump and Musk attack each other, don't forget: their ongoing DOGE cuts have made your life worse.
It doesn't matter who wins the Trump-Musk feud.
Thanks to them, millions of Americans have already lost crucial public services. youtu.be/M5LD2CSOzmI?...

I believe that everyone should be allowed the space and time and opportunity to become who they truly are. I am sad that some people, given the space and time and opportunity, choose to be assholes.
@realDonaldTrump I am considering taking Three Billion Dollars of Grant Money away from a very antisemitic Harvard, and giving it to TRADE SCHOOLS all across our land. What a great investment that would be for the USA, and so badly needed!!! 2.14k ReTruths 8.64k Likes May 26, 2025, 8:27 AM
FYI to media outlets, you're misleading your readers if you repeat this at face value.
There's no lawful way for him to redirect these grants elsewhere. It's a lie to distract from how the GOP budget guts educational funding, including Pell Grants at trade schools.
The brilliant concept here is "finding a way to get users to consent to constant tracking and recording so their data can be sold to advertisers, collection agencies, scammers, and the government." It will provide negative value to every single person who owns one.
Race animates a lot of ICE/CBP, but I can't stress enough how—as with all law enforcement—a key factor is sheer *laziness*.
They're not tracking down drug gangs, they're going for the easiest targets they can find. Official hearings (citizenship, court, etc) are fish in a barrel to run numbers up.
The video doesn’t show a congressperson “body slamming” an ICE agent, but it does show that ICE agents are unprofessional thugs who seem to delight in escalating confrontations
Not weird, plus we've already seen the effects of people outsourcing their thinking to others. "AI" doesn't even think.
Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.
“Shared sacrifice” is not very Trumpian. Should be “more for me,less for you”.
Friends, the Senate resolution to roll back all of Trump's tariff will be voted on tonight around 530pm.
If you have the time please call your Senators and urge them to vote for it. Particularly those of you with Republican Senators; especially Collins, McConnell and Murkowski.

Using "recently deputized" ICE agents who don't follow procedure and perform arrests in plainclothes wearing masks and refuse to show badges is a great way to generate a violent situation.
It's only a matter of time before these cowboys encounter "stand your ground" and it'll be 100% their fault.
And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.
We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.
SCOTT PELLEY says ‘60 Minutes’ executive producer Bill Owens resigned after Paramount started meddling in their content, because they wanted to get their merger approved by Trump — specifically mentioning their coverage of Israel and Trump.
The bullshit machine spits out some doozies 🧵
🔥 “I don’t think it’s ever wrong to stand up for the constitution.”
Senator Van Hollen responds to Governor Gavin Newsom calling standing up for #KilmarAbregoGarcia’s due process a “distraction”
Van Hollen: "I'm very glad that the killed of Rachel Morin has been convicted in a court of law. That is how we hold guilty people accountable ... I'm not sure why Abrego Garcia's rights should be denied based on an awful murder he had absolutely nothing to do with."
Hegseth really feels like the ultimate expression of the anti-DEI backlash, a sloppy drunk who can’t stop texting the nuclear codes in response to scam job offers who is treated as qualified because the president saw him on TV and did the Leonardo DiCaprio point
People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.
A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.
Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,
Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.
