NeverTrump since 2015.

Waiting for the Russian nuclear strikes now that Ukraine has crossed yet another red line.

The greatest failure of the Biden Presidency which I supported was that they took Russian threats of nuclear attack at face value even after US and western allies crossed red line after red line.
Excuse my language, but what a gullible dipshit.
Remember all of those hefty handouts Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski won in exchange for sealing the deal on Donald Trump’s behemoth budget bill? It looks like the president has found a way to get out of delivering.

“I feel cheated."

Lisa Murkowski Suddenly Realizes She Got Played on Trump Budget Bill
The Alaska senator clearly thought the leopards would never eat her face.

What a fucking fascist bullshit presidency is this?
PAY ATTENTION: Stephen Colbert dragged Paramount for cutting a $16M check to Trump—and THREE DAYS LATER, CBS canceled The Late Show.

You’re telling me that’s a coincidence?

This smells like corporate bribery and media censorship in real time.

No POTUS in history has been such a tool. I mean that both literally and pejoratively.
32/❗️ Trump: "We are not seeking a ceasefire. We are seeking total victory — and that means Iran will not have nuclear weapons."

What a dumbfuck.

June 18, 2025 at 8:14 PM
So we are at war?

Biden never used “we” when talking about kinetic warfare.

When does this get to happen to Putin?
Ali Shamkhani, a top advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, has reportedly been seriously injured as a result of Israeli military operations within Iranian territory.

I have four ducklings. At the moment I am trying to come up with a name for them. I had the thought of naming on Cheez, another Quacker. Then I thought, well, maybe I could go with a whole charcuterie theme—Cheez, Quacker, Nuts and Meat. Thoughts?

"Very big force." He's good at words.
Trump says anybody who protests the military parade on Sunday will be met with “very heavy force”

Sidney Powell is patient zero for the insane election conspiracy theories. She has not been punished sufficiently.
Lindell says it was (now-disgraced) Trump attorney Sidney Powell who got him to dive deeper into claims that voting machines are rigging elections. Lindell says he took what he believed was evidence to the White House and was “devastated” when Trump didn’t act on it.

So there are zero Republican members of Congress who are willing to call bullshit on this?
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

I think donations by private citizens under $5000 should be private. Rich fucks get to conceal their donations through PACs and all the common folks can be held to public account for their speech and apparently even retaliated against. Fuck that shit.
COLLINS: Republicans like Ron Johnson and Rand Paul say the bill will add to the deficit. Is the White House's position that those Republicans are blatantly wrong?

LEAVITT: It is ... there hasn't been a single staffer in the entire CBO that has contributed to a Republican since 2000

They’re all so stupid. And they know it. So they turn to pseudo intellectuals and malicious manipulators for their words.
HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

It's crazy how this has been thrown down the memory hole.
Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi went to a consulate in Istanbul to get a document he needed to get married. Instead, he was murdered and dismembered on the orders of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, now a close pal of Donald Trump.

Trump's anti-market economic worldview on display. He believes that spending money is a sign of weakness. This is the same logic as his claim that last week that the precipitous decline in shipping volumes at the country's ports is "a good thing, not a bad thing," because "we lose less money."/1

The Trump administration is preparing to accept a Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the royal family of Qatar as a gift to be used by President Trump as the new Air Force One until shortly before Trump leaves office, according to four sources familiar with the planning.

I’m amazed at how unintelligent Donald Trump is. Truly one of the dumbest people to ever have this much power. A true imbecile.

This is because of layoffs on devices teams at $GOOG. Those layoffs are in part the result of Trump idiocy on the economy. @chrislhayes.bsky.social if your retirement hasn't gone to shit, your product support will.
Any else get the email from Google saying they’re going to stop all software support for the last 12 year’s worth of nest thermostats? Come *on*!

If we with NATO chose to, Russia would have a new government and be fully demilitarized in a month.
