In my lifetime the GOP has:
Betrayed American hostages in Iran to win an election
Sold weapons to terrorists
Crashed the economy multiple times
Shut down the gov multiple times
Taken away women's right to bodily autonomy
Put children in debt for school lunches
And their voters did get over it

Did you know if you give a parakeet a mirror they will endlessly talk to themselves in the mirror, thinking they're interacting with another bird? This causes the budgie to develop antisocial behaviors that make it hard to interact with other live birds

I really wish journalists would stop using the word "retribution" to describe Trump's efforts to criminalize opposition to him, as it treats his claim that his adversaries did something wrong in the first place.

She needs to be nuremberg'd asap.
The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.
BREAKING:
“After receiving that legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the AEA detainees who had been removed from the United States before the Court’s order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador. “

Oh look, it's the human trafficking the Republicans are always going on about
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Every economy op-ed writer: No see, you can't buy a house because you buy too many avocado toasts but you're hurting the economy by not buying a new $1,000 phone each year. I am very smart. Also don't ask me about my emails with Epstein.

Every Democrat in Congress should put out a video saying troops have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders. Make them prosecute all of you. This isn't a close call.
I'd add Republicans too if I thought any of them had the courage to actually cross Trump on this.

They focus so much on the "cause" in the same way they do on trans youth. That if there's some cause they can identify, they can eliminate that population by preventing it. It's eugenics disguised as concern trolling.

An economy built on an incessant cycle of making, buying, and throwing away trash so billionaires can buy yachts is a shit economy. I hope we return to landlines at this point. Fuck all of it.
