Don’t worry, I’m sure the president who only recently discovered the word “groceries” knows what he’s doing with the economy.

Our beef is the most masculine beef. Very strong, heterosexual beef. Our beef pisses standing up while their effeminate beef pisses sitting down.

Just so we’re all clear: Congress could vote to end this tariff madness tomorrow. Every Republican who refuses to do so is actively supporting a $6 TRILLION tax hike on Americans.

The Social Security Administration under Trump/Musk/DOGE:

-Website crashed 4 times in 10 days
-Phone lines are overwhelmed
-Staff being forced out
-Customer experience office eliminated
-SSA field offices on the chopping block

This is an attack on Social Security itself.

In any other administration of the past 80 years, the defense secretary and the national security advisor would, following an equivalent scandal, now resign.

contrarian.substack.com/p/a-nation-a... inspirational: If John Lewis were here today he would be encouraging us “to stand up, speak up, and speak out” vs injustice. He would be reminding us that silence is compliance. He would be asserting that the Constitution begins with the words “We the people”…

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled.

This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

Elon Musk's maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s, where they were in the German Nazi Party.

They supported Hitler and then went to South Africa, a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany. Musk was an anti-semite and an apartheid lover.

Trump was found to have:

Committed housing discrimination

Defrauded Trump university “students”

Sexually abused E Jean Carroll-before defaming her

Perpetrated massive fraud for which he was fined $454 million

And to have committed 34 felonies in the State of New York

Yet he struts around, free

📹 This is the man they attempted to humiliate in the Oval office. Zelenskyy will be remembered as a leader of resilience and honor, who stood firm in the face of his country’s darkest hours. His courage and dedication will leave a lasting mark on history.
