The felon in the White House treats reporters so horribly, especially women. I wish that other reporters would stand up for their fellow reporters when this happens. He is a misogynistic piece of crap! #impeachTrump #trumpForPrison

Ahh, so this is what president dazed and confused meant when he said he'd start testing our nukes immediately. Makes perfect sense now.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.
And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

The NY Times published an editorial citing Susan Collin as "a moderate Republican." Collins is a reliable vote for Trump's agenda, has voted against democracy at every turn and supported extremist judges.
This is why people are abandoning legacy media--even while enjoying games, puzzles & recipes.

The White House is starting to look like a gold-plated whorehouse straight out of a bad Vegas fantasy. F47 clearly thinks he’s some kind of Saudi king, lounging in tacky opulence while everyday Americans are just trying to afford groceries. It’s not leadership; it’s delusion wrapped in gold foil.
