THAT is how we should cover trump’s claims of inherent power or his intent to run for a third term. not as something allowed by some unforeseen loopholes (“the card says moops!”) but as a statement that he intends to ignore the constitution altogether in pursuit of power. (5)

wow this SUCKS
NPR CEO Katherine Maher says she regrets her years-old tweets calling Trump a fascist and a deranged racist: "I regret those tweets, I wouldn't tweet them against today. They represented a time when I was reflecting on something that the president had said rather than who he is."

This is Oligarchy. The three richest men in the world have become $196 BILLION richer since Donald Trump was elected.

$196 billion for three men in 99 days.

Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Well played, President Claudia Sheinbaum, for committing troops already at the border since 2021, knowing perfectly well President Man Baby would have no idea and take it as a win.

I knew all this was going to happen. But nothing can really prepare you for what it feels like when the moment actually arrives. This is why we need each other and our communities. I plan to turn to them a lot in the coming years.

So yeah, it’s real bad. Just remember:
1) they’re going to fuck it up
2) but not all of it
3) do what you can when you can
4) do nothing when you need to
5) posting is not doing something

That pro Trump message really is a gut punch but what else would we expect. Trump, in all his fascistic idiocy, consistently out maneuvers democrats because even in his castle, he understands his kingdom more than democrats ever will. This is what people mean when they say he’s a good business man

Honestly, a lot of people are addicted to TikTok in ways that make me nervous for the next few weeks to months if the app really is done for good. Like the economic ramifications of putting hundreds of thousands of people out of work, some people will need mental health resources to deal with this

No matter what happens with #tiktok, people will never forget what it felt like to be scrolling and unwinding, only to be told their government under a Dem president ruined something that only a literal fascist could save

Well, didn’t want to be right about the tik tok ban but here we are.
January 19, 2025 at 1:58 PM
If tik tok gets banned (IMO it will be) Meta will not see an increase in users permanently. The apps are not user friendly at all. Ever try to edit a video in Instagram? It’s torture. And vitality is not the same on Meta’s platforms. It’s more work and annoyance for less payout

Walmart announced today that it will likely be raising prices on consumers because of Trump's economic policies, but Nancy Mace is focused on banning Congresswoman-elect Sarah McBride from women's bathrooms.

They don't care about the economy.
