Republicans in Utah are more concerned about Pride flags in school than they are about guns in schools.

You shouldn’t finish every book you start.

Abandoning a book is not an admission of failure—it’s a sign of wisdom. You’ve decided to let go of sunk costs.

The purpose of reading is to be entertained and informed. If a book doesn't bring joy or insight, it’s time to move on.

Remember, at the Zelenskyy-Trump meeting, RUSSIAN STATE MEDIA was in the Oval Office -- and the White House claims they don't know how it happened.

Reuters and the AP were BANNED from the meeting.

I never think he can get more embarrassing, and he always outdoes timeless. He has turned our country into a circus.

Dear maga,

The global right, who used to admire Trump, has absolutely turned on him and now is openly saying he works for Russia.

The right in Canada has dropped in the polls and now openly distances themselves from you. Same with Germany and UK

You suck

Speaker Mike Johnson doubling down for Trump on Meet the Press is a further embarrassment. Saying they need to be thankful when their country at war is a new level of petty.

BREAKING: Trump SEIZES control of media covering him

Now, only Trump-approved press outlets will be allowed into the White House to ask questions

This is NOT democracy - and it's NOT a republic.

It's a MONARCHY or a DICTATORSHIP - giving pretend access to ask pretend questions

Exactly who you would think that Trump would have rounding up anybody who doesn’t look like her. It’s sick. It’s embarrassing. It is heartbreaking. Let’s not forget this is the lady that shot her dog because it wasn’t to her liking. This is Trumps America.

Things that caused the DC plane crash:
— Having 1 air traffic controller do a job 2 people normally do, because of far-right efforts to destroy the government

Things that did NOT cause the DC crash:
— Women
— Black people
— Pete Buttigieg
— DEI programs generally

BREAKING - TRUMP'S FRIDAY NIGHT MASSACRE

Trump fires 17 inspectors general - all the internal govt enforcement officials for every major government agency and department

This was ILLEGAL - firing an IG requires 30 day notice to Congress

CONGRESS MUST ACT TO REINSTATE THEM, NOW

Late last night, Trump fired the independent inspectors general of at least 12 major federal agencies.

Inspectors general are tasked with rooting out fraud, abuse, and corruption.

Trump wants loyalists in these positions — a key tenant of Project 2025.

Keep paying attention. wapo.st/3Cptwvg
Trump ousts at least 12 independent inspectors general in late-night purge
The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire a Senate-confirmed inspector general.
