You know in 4 years time, Republicans will be blaming Democrats for this #BigBeautifulBill and the $3.3 trillion it adds to the national debt.
"I am shocked. Shocked that Democrats spent all that money. We must get the deficit and debt under control. Vote #GOP."

Maybe we need to take a different approach: who in this administration is *not* in the Epstein files?

I don't know why it took a video posted by Trump for the media to realize he's racist when DHS is engaged in an ethnic cleansing campaign in Minneapolis.

Please, please, media outlets, remember the C word: context. You can’t discuss Trump’s apes post - or his ‘blame a staffer’ excuse - if you’re not also factoring in and reminding your viewers/readers about his birtherism, his ‘send her back’ remarks, him calling Somalis ‘low IQ’.

I don't want to hear about any more "condemnations."
It's a one-word demand to Trump, our racist-in-chief.
RESIGN.

I don’t want to depress you all but the entire media and political class will have moved on from this latest Trump racist outburst by tomorrow, Monday at the very latest. He gets away with it every time - because he is allowed to get away with it, and because he floods the zone.

The United States is so well respected worldwide that they had to have the International Olympic Committee to ask fans not to boo the US delegation led by JD Vance and Marco Rubio during the opening ceremony.
Fucking hilarious.

Ten countries have launched investigations related to the released Epstein files.
Norway, UK, France, Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Australia, North Macedinia, Turkey, Poland.
Conspicuously absent is the United States, the epicenter of this scandal.
We know why.

Urging people saying this speech is about Trump first of all to recognise that other countries have agency AND to at least brush up on the IOC and the person making the speech. #Olympics

Did NBC really mute the booing of JD Vance at the #Olympics in the U.S.? To my American friends, I can assure you it was brief but it was loud.
NEW: Huge cheers earlier for the Ukrainian athletes at the Winter Olympics opening ceremony.
Then huge BOOS as JD Vance comes on the big screen in the stadium.
Even the commentators can’t hide it…

Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

Very disappointed to see what looks like AI animation used in the Olympic opening ceremony
proponents were surely hoping to use this as an opportunity to 'show what AI can do'
With the world watching, in a tradition that is FUNDAMENTALLY based on what PEOPLE can do, that really stinks.

Imagine having a country full of creative people excited to make cool things for your Olympic opening ceremonies...but instead you put forth lots of little bits of AI slop.
Every one of those is silencing what could've been a huge moment in the life of a human artist.
Plus they look like trash.
