The thing that really gets me is allllllllll the shitty nasty things he said about Obama — rooted in racism and xenophobia — for all those years. And let’s not forget the Central Park Five. He was a hateful, racist liar, dispensing poisonous bile on a daily basis.

It’s just a sign of decency to express regret and swiftly arrange the return of the wrongly imprisoned man. There is no conscience.

Seeing Vance dispatched to Greenland is so funny to me. He’s such a puppet on a string, and the puppeteer is fucking with him

Just a reminder that Trump is married to an immigrant, Vance is married to an immigrant, Musk is an immigrant and Noem shoots puppies.

The problem isn’t just that the administration is unwilling to take accountability. It’s also that Trump voters are unwilling to take accountability.

They’re all horrible and pugnacious and unable to be accountable for anything, it’s like they got Masters Degrees at Trump University.

So I was told by the principal that a parent removed their kid from my class because it had become “too politicized” when I gave an assignment to compare/contrast the Gilded Age with today. The school wouldn’t tell me who. Today there was one student absent. A girl named Reagan. 🤣

Just had a parent pull their kid from my class because “it was getting too political.” How can HS English Lit teachers teach the classics in 2025? THE CLASSICS WERE POLITICAL.

Don’t apologize, Janet! If he retaliates against you and punishes Maine residents, it will absolutely backfire on him. Stand strong.

When I was a boy, I put on my mom’s fur coat & heels and pranced into the living room. Everyone laughed but my uncle followed me out of the room, gripped my arm tightly and whispered, “I thought I had a nephew but I guess I really have a niece.” The shame I felt. Naturally he voted for Trump.

Have you ever seen the AOC documentary? It captures the night she learned she won the election. In that moment her life changed. I think about it as she steps into this moment. An AOC-Bernie ticket feels right.
