The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

Another worrying data point.
"This guy is an OP"

Trump's feds subpoenaed my private data under the guise of "national security," and I had to go back and forth with the Twitter/X legal team about this. I've literally been a target of right-wing fascists for my free speech, yet centrist libs call me an "op."

Donald Trump is weaponizing the DOJ against his political opponents.

Meanwhile, he's gutting the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section which assists U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country with investigating crooked government officials.

"Drain the swamp."

The President of the United States calling for the imprisonment of elected officials with no legal basis should alarm everyone, regardless of party.

Since foreign students typically pay full freight this will raise tuitions or cut aide to American students
International student arrivals to the US dropped 19% this year, the biggest drop on record aside from the 2020 pandemic low.
The decline is occurring as the Trump administration has delayed visa processing, instituted travel bans or restrictions for 19 countries, threatened to deport international students for pro-Palestinian speech, and heightened the vetting of student visa applicants.

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor.

Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.

Writing about myself is such a struggle, as is getting good feedback. Everyone's advice is to do the opposite of what the last person told me. I wish I could get my friend-reviewers in a room together to help me workshop my writing.

Fuck it.
I’m releasing these.

The police seized all of my lasers during this operation. I have a court date in my future. #FreeLordLaser #FreeLadyLaser

I will tell the whole story later. But it was all worth it to release these images on this day.

Trump admin says everything is hunky-dory at the VA.

But we found that the number of doctors at VA has dropped each month since Trump took office.

Nurses are way down too

We got the records.

I never get tired of reminding people that famous celebrity Donald Trump's very first appearance in the New York Times was when the Nixon Justice Department sued him and his father for refusing to rent to black families.
Trump on undocumented farm workers: "People that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They've tried, we've tried, everybody tried. They don't do it. These people do it naturally. Naturally ... they don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die."

We are losing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which has helped educate, inform, and entertain millions of Americans.

Instead, we’re getting a vulgar new gold ballroom, which none of us will ever see.

Do not stay at a Hyatt hotel. They're running fake "smoking detectors" specifically as a revenue-generating scheme and arbitrarily fining guests $500.

I like this idea.
We should seriously consider starting an NAFO PAC to gain more political power. We could even run NAFO candidates and get NAFO fellas installed in new administrations. Between us and Anon we could make a difference.
