Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth appear to be in a fierce contest to prove who is The Most Incompetent.

Alas, their time is wasted, as their boss, Donald J. Trump, will always win that contest.

Two weeks in Poland have radicalized me on this. America is worthless if we can't stand up.

This is an absolute disgrace from a country that is supposed to be a beacon of freedom around the world. Rewarding war criminals like this surpasses Chamberlain's worst missteps. www.wsj.com/world/u-s-pe...

The Epstein coverup will go down as one of the greatest scandals and miscarriages of justice in U.S. history.

Everyone involved with Epstein’s victims or with the coverup needs to be prosecuted and go down in shame.

It does not matter if they are GOP or Dems!

Repost if you agree.

If Trump has nothing to hide, he'd tell Pam Bondi to release the Epstein Files like they all promised.

Mike Johnson would have sworn in Adelita Grijalva yesterday.

Ghislaine Maxwell would be sent back to Florida prison instead of being pampered in Club Fed in Texas.

And...

He's guilty as hell.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

At a time when Trump wants to double premiums and throw 15 million off the health care they have, please remember that the U.S. is the only major country on Earth not the guarantee health care to all as a human right.

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.

Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.

American capitalism is off the rails.

These big wins will embolden Dems to take on Trump's lawbreaking and show there's a price for GOP enabling of him. Folks hate to hear this, but normal patterns are asserting themselves: Liberalism isn't dead, Rs are likely to lose in 2026, and Trump is really unpopular, not a magical exception.

The post from the Reagan Foundation is just complete gibberish.

The ad did not, in fact, misrepresent Reagan's views. But the idea that anyone needs the Reagan Foundation's goddamn permission to use the publicly broadcast official remarks of a former president and/or edit them for brevity is crazy

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

I can’t believe Trump just promised Argentina another $20 billion, bringing the total to $40 billion.

American farmers better be paying attention and rethink their unwavering support for the man.
