A MAGA told me that we on the Left think we're better than them.
I said, "Of course, we are better than you. We aren't defending rapists and applauding violence against Latino human beings."
This isn't an opinion. MAGAs are objectively horrible people.

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

Count the ways they’re corrupting DOJ: Presidents don’t direct AG’s to open criminal cases, especially ones designating only Dems for investigation when POTUS himself is involved. DOJ doesn’t publicize criminal investigations & the AG definitely doesn’t assign them on Twitter.

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.

This happened earlier today. A guy collapsed down on the floor right next to him at an Oval office event and Trump barely moves a muscle, doesn’t give a damn, and looks super annoyed that his photo op this afternoon has been interrupted. Donald Trump in a nutshell, ladies and gentlemen.

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments today over President Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on almost every nation on earth, in ever-changing amounts.
But the real question before the high court? Will the conservative justices honor the president—or their plutocratic patrons?
