I would like to take this opportunity to get on the record and apologize: I had complained about how every single thing at the grocery store now costs five dollars more than it used to, but I had not seen the latest data from DoorDash's State of Local Commerce report, which disproves that.

Look obviously it sucks, everything he does sucks, but Trump's dedication to 1987 Wedding Food is one of his only sincerely held beliefs. I am putting a bounty on a photo of the fucked up pasta primavera they're serving. You know there's shredded carrot in that thing.
I really resent my tax dollars being spent on this

Not even in the top 500 most impeachable things that Trump has done in office, but I can't get over how he's defacing monuments to republican virtue in order to turn them into symbols of decadent personalism. Caligula-ass government.

The loss of Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding will mean a nearly $5 million cut for PBS North Carolina.
It's giving "voluntary separation offers" to most of its staff, freezing hiring and eliminating vacant positions.

The striking thing about Johnson — not new, but striking — is that he has so much power that he won't use because he'd rather get pats on the head from Trump. A historic embarrassment to a position that's included at least one child molester.
Speaker Johnson to reporters on the difference in his attitude to violent rioters in LA versus in DC on Jan 6: “Everybody wants me to re-litigate January 6. I’m not going to do that. There's a very clear distinction between the two.” He says LA rioters are “destroying property.”
