So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Trump spent Thanksgiving sitting like a schlub at Mar-a-Lago while Kamala Harris spent the day prepping food for underprivileged DC’s school children.

If you think I’d regret my vote for her for one second you are out of your mind.

Wow! I had no idea that Bluesky only has 20 employees, a.k.a. superheroes! I'm so grateful for this amazing space to connect, coordinate, and create a better, brighter future for all of us! 🙏
Did you know BlueSky only has 20 employees?

We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to those 20 warriors (who are working 24/7 to keep up with the incredible growth) for giving us a space to share.

We escaped hell to be here.

Thank you, @bsky.app & Jay Graber CEO (not a billionaire)

Feels like people here need to RT more and like a bit less. Remember, the likes don't amplify anything (there's no algorithm). We're all stuck in bad "X" habits. Myself included. Timeline needs to get timelier.

Trump will likely will seek to cut off spending that lawmakers have already appropriated, setting off a constitutional struggle within the branches. If successful, he could wield the power to punish perceived foes. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

MCGOVERN: “Republicans want to blame trans people - trans people aren’t the one raising their grocery prices. Big corporations are… immigrants aren’t the ones denying health insurance claims — it’s the billion-dollar insurance companies.”

Good morning! Just a reminder that Presidents do not create new governmental departments. Congress does. This DOGE nonsense will have no impact because they have no authority. Elon is as useless as every other person in Trump’s new cabinet. Good day. Carry on.

Based on recent scuttlebutt, it appears the Trump Crime Syndicate isn't confident they can suppress the Matt Gaetz Ethics report.

They're now focused on pressuring the Senate to ignore it and confirm him anyway.

House Republicans actually voted today to block the US Senate from receiving their report containing sworn witness testimony and documentary evidence about the nominee for Attorney General of the United States paying a child $10,000 for sex.

That’s where we are at.

So Trump’s Border Czar nominee wrote the section on the border for Project 2025’s manifesto and Trump’s FCC nominee wrote the section on the FCC for Project 2025. But Trump had no connection to it and doesn’t know anything about it.
