Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Just a thought, but how come no one ever made a bajillion dollars by actually making the candies in Candy Crush? Those little chocolate balls with the sprinkles look delicious.

Honestly rather share my country with someone who lived a nightmare, decided to walk 1200 miles to have a shot at a better life for their family than some insurrection goatee having Silverado driving Douche who thinks the earth is flat and vaccines have microchips that communicate with chem trails.

I had to check if he really said it, because I saw it on a meme, but I couldn't believe he would say it. But of course he said it!
Trump was asked by a reporter if he would visit the crash site, and he said "You want me to go swimming?"

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

Secret Service agents arrived yesterday at Hamline Elementary School in Chicago searching for an 11-year-old child who posted an anti-Trump video. AN ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD CHILD.

The principal said school administrators followed protocols and denied entry to the agents.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his.
