We are serfs ruled by obscenely rich, omnipotent masters who loot the U.S. Treasury, pay little or no taxes & have perverted the judiciary, the media & the legislative branches of government to strip us of civil liberties & give them the freedom to commit financial fraud & theft.

During the Soviet era, at times of govt instability, the state broadcaster would typically preempt scheduled broadcasts by airing performances of Swan Lake
And, tonight, the network's flagship news program -- 60 Minutes -- ran a clip show of old celeb interviews to "celebrate the movies" rather than put together an episode focused on what's going on in Minnesota.
The person who publishes the Free Press — where the words “Minneapolis” and “Minnesota” never appear tonight — also runs CBS News.

They are morally, ethically and intellectually bankrupt. They have no soul...
I do think that a possibly underrated dynamic in The Horrors is that the Right as it has reconstituted itself under Trump legitimately can’t understand sincere moral or physical courage

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Just a reminder that Trump's immigration plan during the election was "mass deportations now" and Harris literally campaigned on being tougher on immigration than him, for people who call those who wouldn't vote for her "single issue voters"

As a reformed Jets fan I'm really happy for Sam Darnold.

Nine people have died in ICE custody or during ICE operations in 2026.
Every one of them mattered.

Call Congress. ICE should NOT be funded.

People who did not trade through 2000-2001 crash have no idea what is coming man...seven of the top twenty Nasdaq down days are from 2000-2001 stretch. The only other time in history that saw draw downs like that was 1929-1932. Valuations today are higher than both previous secular market peaks...

honestly, the restaurant in question - they know who they are - should print this tweet and put in the front window. business would quadruple
Yes! Ha Ha Ha YESSS

I hope they pissed their pants. I hope the "local authorities" directed them to call for help just so they could have a good laugh when they did. I hope the restaurant staff spat in their food.

One way you know they fucked up is Noem is lying brazenly. This again should be understood as a sign of weakness. These people are in over their heads and afraid. They are afraid all the time. Much more than you. An entire government of Byron Hadleys.

Three journalists were murdered by the IDF in an air strike today.

The executions of US citizens on the streets of America, and the genocide of Palestinians, are intensely and brutally interlinked.

There are a whole lot of votes the Democratic Party could get if they got rid of their current leadership and adopted a platform that the voters actually believed the new people would follow through on. It’s the truth. If believers thought about it with an open mind once. They’d get it.
