This is why I love Chicago so much. Their “we will fuck with you” reserves are BOTTOMLESS.
This is amazing.

Every single thing that Kamala Harris said Trump would do he has done! It’s absolutely true that the world sees Trump as a joke!

There was nothing more embarrassing than seeing the American 🇺🇸 Military on their hands and knees rolling out a red carpet for a dictator.

Oh my god. These people are our first responders. They will be playing a larger and larger role in our safety as Climate Change continues. How can we not be protecting them?? Another item more important that deporting law abiding immigrants. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/17/u...

Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.

Some good news. Judge calls out that senior FTC staffers (who double as shitposters) had tweeted about how much they hated Media Matters, which undermined the claims that this was just an ordinary investigation, and not punishment for speech.
Federal district court blocks FTC investigation into Media Matters, finding the "expansive" investigation is "a retaliatory act" for Media Matters' criticism of Elon Musk. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

There was a time when American presidents lectured Putin and made him look small. Now, it's the other way around.

I could not agree more. We need to ban gerrymandering nationally, but that'll never happen as long as Republicans are using it to cheat their way into a perpetual majority.

I've talked about people who miss things Dems are doing. This entire hearing was lit, and I'm only now watching this.

Those who were aware during Katrina might consider how we can't do heckova job Brownie anymore and how to fix it.

85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity.

There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.

Criminals are posing as ICE agents to rape, rob, and kidnap innocent immigrants. And why not? ICE & DHS have created the perfect cover:
▪️ Masked agents
▪️ No ID
▪️ Zero accountability
▪️ Fake badges & gear sold openly on Etsy

This is state-enabled terror. And it must be stopped.
