How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14?

What about the White House?

Since we’re all talking about Greenland and Canada now would be a good time to remind people that Puerto Rico and Washington, DC actually should be added as the 51st and 52nd states.

Does anyone have a contact for Ann ? Would love to discuss with her the possibility of partnering with her to publish her cartoons exclusively on @bluesky
Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

It took me 4 years to build a following of 288k on Twitter.

It took me 2 weeks to build a bigger following on Bluesky.

This is the place to be.

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post
A Chinese national, charged with fraud by the SEC, just sent Donald Trump $18 million
Chinese Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun paid $6.2 million for a banana — sold by Sotheby's as conceptual art — and then ate it last Friday.

I am still unsure why any Democrat would feel differently, but let's clear this up.

Joe Biden pardoned his son.
Good.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk! 🙋🏻‍♀️

THIS NEW YORKER PIECE IS STUNNING!

Pete Hegseth has no business being in charge of defense when the military is dealing with an ongoing issue of sexual assault against women. This is some next level shit.

Good afternoon. My name is Joe Gallina and since 2017, I have dedicated my life to expose Trump any time he erodes our institutions.

We have a lot of lessons to learn about what went wrong in 2024, but I am committed to give it my all. My daughter, our country is worth the fight.

These words are engraved above the entrance to the United States Supreme Court. It's time for them to be removed. They're clearly no longer accurate.

If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble!

THREAD: Today is a sad day for justice. Jack Smith and the DoJ are bound by the Constitution to dismiss the charges against Trump. It's unlikely that charges will be brought again in four years, but the DoJ doesn't want to close the door completely and has asked for dismissal without prejudice. 1/
