I hope congressional Republicans realize how hard Trump and Hegseth are laughing at their "demands." They cut off their own balls and now they're going to throw a whiny tantrum about it? They, and everyone who voted for these fuckers, can fuck right off in hell.

The Onion Made an Absolutely Unhinged Jeffrey Epstein Mockumentary
"Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile" is a very silly deep dive on a very serious issue. In the current media landscape, it’s a wonder it even got made.

New Yorkers! Call Schumer! Call Jeffries! DO NOT LET THEM CAVE!
Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are prepared to roll over to avoid a shutdown. That cannot happen, because it is exactly what Trump wants. Now is the time to fight. Call their offices and tell them.

Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.

Taken with no warrant, no formal arrest, no evidence of illegal activity, no due process...all because she wrote an op-ed in her college newspaper criticizing the government. She was here on a perfectly legal H1 Student Visa, and had done nothing to violate its terms.

BREAKING: We and @aclum.bsky.social are joining Tufts student Rümeysa Öztürk’s legal team after plain-clothes ICE agents unlawfully detained her because of an op-ed she wrote.

This is an appalling violation of the First Amendment.

If @schumer.senate.gov were a true patriot he’d step aside and endorse this guy to take his place as minority leader.
Chris Murphy: "There has to be criminal investigations as well here. If the criminal code doesn't apply to powerful people, if it only applies to people without power, then we don't have rule of law in this country."

Don’t stop pushing for Hegseth to be fired. They think we’re going to let this go. We’re not.
"What is most enraging about this incident is the pointless stupidity. Bragging. Flexing. Putting on a proverbial costume and playing Army Boss. Trying to look tough and strong in front of the MAGA cool kids club."

The subject line of a whistleblower email at the Defense Secretary’s previous employment provides the only responsible path forward.

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.

It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.
