I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Trump has about as much respect for The People's House as he does for the people.

Naked children torn from their mothers and tossed into vans.

U.S. citizens detained for hours in zip ties.

Doors kicked in and belongings stolen or destroyed.

This is the reality of Trump’s deportation agenda.

It was always about cruelty.

So Trump is defunding the police.
Department of Homeland Security is cutting over $187 million or 86% of homeland security funding to New York State which will radically defund NYPD, FDNY, and NY State Police terrorism programs, according to a letter from New York Governor Kathy Hochul to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.

Today at Quantico was a disgusting scene.

A draft dodger and former Fox News host lecturing military commanders about fitness & facial hair.

What the world saw was Trump projecting weakness, not strength.

If Joe Biden's speaking cadence was a major news item that the press saw fit to opine about for days, why are we not hearing a peep about the noticeable slur coming from Trump in this speech?

Don't tell me, I already know.
Trump to generals: "We have beautiful paper, the gorgeous paper. I said, 'throw a little more gold on it, they deserve it. I want the A paper not the D paper.' We used to sign a piece of garbage ... I want to use the big beautiful firm paper."

Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"

They ran thinkpieces about Biden’s gait and his sneakers. Now Trump’s dragging his leg, covered in IV bruises, and waddling around with ankles that look ready to burst—and not a single word from the media.

The double standard is pathetic.

Republicans aren't just covering up Trump's connections to Jeffrey Epstein. They're also covering up for the banks that financed Epstein's child rape operation.

They’re treating the murder of Charlie Kirk like the 9/11 terror attacks, as an excuse to go to war.

But this time they’re going to war against the US.

It’s horrific and inexplicable. Donald Trump and RFK Jr. are objectively pro-cancer. They’re destroying the entire infrastructure that has made so much progress and is poised to make much more. People will suffer and die because of them. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...

Hey Ohio! Your state is redistricting! As my friend @repemiliasykes.bsky.social Sykes explains—your maps were already found to be unconstitutional. But now, your legislature & gov could use the opportunity to try to cheat in the 2026 election. And nobody likes a cheater. Especially in the Midwest!
