It’s disgusting to watch billionaires, corporations, universities and foreign countries prostrate themselves to a thin skinned, grifting, common criminal!

He’s such a piece of shit, as are those that continue to allow this to happen!

If only Congress would do their job! 🤬

Pretty clear what’s going on here!

Pay your tribute and your legal problems go away!

Hey 77 million Americans that voted for a felon, this is the corruption that you apparently wanted!

And thank you Congress and the media for totally normalizing presidential extortion!

Farage really exposes where his interests lie in supporting Trump. He is no friend of our country, he is a Fascist traitor.

@gtconway.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social discuss the acquittal of the 'Sandwich Guy': "The jury said, we're not buying it. We can't swallow it. You've given us a lot to chew on, and we're just spitting out these charges."

🚨 💰 WOW — @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn snuck a provision into the spending bill that would let them sue the government for $500,000 because Jack Smith looked into their phone records around Trump’s insurrection.

ICE detained a man in Bowling Green this week while he was doing something every Kentuckian does without thinking: stopping at a gas station.

It wasn’t a raid. It wasn’t an operation. It was a roadside snatch-and-grab with badges.

The truth: ICE raids don’t make Kentucky safer.
They traumatize immigrant families, destabilize neighborhoods, and turn routine errands into arenas of fear.

Nobody is safer when your neighbor can disappear between the gas pump and the car door.

This is how ICE works. No warning. No explanation. No transparency. Just federal agents materializing in everyday life like a weather system nobody asked for.

And our leaders call this “public safety.”

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.
Every single time.

Ghislaine Maxwell is an unrepentant child sex predator. So why would an American President even consider commuting her sentence? This would be a national disgrace.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.
