And it casually, gleefully, carelessly sentenced millions to death. Every single act of this administration is either a scandal, a tragedy, or a criminal act, and the common thread is it’s usually the stupidest possible decision by the most soulless people available
On DOGE’s watch, federal spending did not go down at all. It went up. But is still led to cuts that closed offices, canceled programs and deprived people of food, medicine and other aid.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Wrong. In fact, a majority with floor crossers is arguably *more* legitimate.

Lifted this from Facebook. Interesting comparison, given the relentless complaints about Canada lagging behind our neighbour economically.

Canada having to take the names off the Victims of Communism memorial because there were too many Nazis is perhaps a good moment for some reflection on how many Nazis were welcomed here after WWII.

Historians raised alarms years ago. Ottawa changed course only after the memorial opened.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

So Trump is asserting Reiner’s son murdered his father because he was angry about his father’s views on Trump?

And… He doesn’t actually condemn his supporters murdering their parents..?
Trump just posted this on Rob Reiner
