What every member of my new political party should shout every single day:
Donald Trump inherited the strongest post-Covid economy in the entire industrialized world, and he has singlehandedly fucked it up. Trump has singlehandedly fucked up our economy.
Say it out loud Dems.

Donald Trump, the narcissistic psychopath President, exploited the murders of the Reiners to say if you don’t support him, just look what could happen to you. Not supporting the malignant narcissist President is not only a reason for you to die, it’s grounds for murder (he absolutely believes this).

Not that it's not appalling enough, but this is an official US Government post, paid for by our federal tax dollars.

The "liberals have to learn how to live with people we diagree with" line kinda stops making sense in a world where the central disagreement is whether disagreeing with them should be allowed at all
“We are under invasion from within, no different than a foreign enemy, but worse—they don’t wear a uniform.”
This is the President of the United States, who ordered the entire leadership of our military to sit and listen to him, speaking a few minutes ago.

“The FCC under Brendan Carr uses mergers and business interests of media companies as leverage to extract concessions, extract bribes, and extract censorship.”
Brendan Carr Isn't Going to Stop Until Someone Makes Him
In the wake of Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, experts say the FCC commissioner's conduct is flatly unconstitutional. They also expect him to keep going.

Respectfully disagree: 1) in fact it is unusual for a democracy w/ this level of GDP to turn authoritarian & so quickly; 2) the weakness of both institutions (congress & courts) and individuals (Schumer etc) is shocking. Would take less than 10 people in congress or 2 SC justices to stop all this.
What America is going through is not unusual in historical terms. Plenty of examples like it today elsewhere in the world.
What makes it unusual is the rapid collapse from a set of widely espoused norms and values that centered on liberty. It is the sacking of the shining city on hill that shocks.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

That’s a lovely thought. But it could never happen with Donald Trump serving as president, and would never have been necessary if he weren’t.

With this vote, Congress makes ICE the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in history, with more money per year at its disposal over the next four years than the budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshals, and Bureau of Prisons combined.
🚨🚨 NEW: House passes sprawling domestic policy bill, sending it to Trump's desk
Final House vote is 218-214, with TWO Rs voting no (Massie & Fitzpatrick).
Senate passed it 51-50.

House passes sprawling domestic policy bill, sending it to Trump's desk
The Republican package would slash taxes, boost spending on immigration and the military, and impose steep cuts to Medicaid, SNAP and clean energy funding.

This is so fucking wrong. She was climbing through a window into the Speaker’s Lobby where Members of Congress were being evacuated in fear for their lives. She was attempting to physically overthrow an election.
What a disgrace by our "Justice" Dept.
The family of Ashli Babbit to recieve nearly 5 million dollars.

I see only 2 reasons why mistakenly kidnapped, uncharged Mr. AbregoGarcia hasn't been released: 1)Trump admin wants to show there are no limits on their power & absurdity of this case makes that point; 2)he's been tortured & they don't want him to reveal what happened www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

I don't expect any of our major media outlets to acknowledge this outright, but this is the thing: These aren't 'steep' tariffs, these are _insane_ tariffs. These are 'nobody in the White House understands decimal points' numbers. It speaks to total economic illiteracy _throughout the White House_.
There's no question that today's tariff announcement will give the United States the highest tariff rates of any industrialized country. And it's not even close.
