citizen you have exceeded your pencil allotment this year. prepare to die
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

About time. Curious to see who this was, and if it’s a Republican, how quickly they get pardoned

Brown University accepted nearly equal numbers of male and female students, but got almost twice as many female applicants. That math meant it was easier for men to get in.

Trump's DEI ban may end gender balancing efforts that often benefit men.

The Trump administration’s ban on diversity, equity and inclusion also targets gender. The ban may impact gender balancing practices that often benefit college men.

Did you know that your healthcare premiums are about to double because the GOP is intentionally sabotaging the Affordable Care Act and pretending that Democrats are trying to give undocumented immigrants free insurance?

Poland was the biggest news of the week. Russia actively targeted a NATO country, and so far the response has largely been crickets.

Pretty clear that a lot of people jumped the gun on the motive behind Kirk’s assassination. The shooter:

1. Grew up in a Republican family
2. Donated to Donald Trump
3. Loved guns
4. Was steeped in Groyper culture

This isn’t a simple “raging leftist hated Kirk” scenario.

“Trump had nothing to do with Epstein”

“Trump was a confidential informant that helped take Epstein down”

“Releasing the Epstein files will destroy the Democrats”

Then why the fuck is Trump threatening to primary the Republicans who are trying to release them?

The most important thing to know about Trump’s manufactured crisis in DC is that his administration is still covering up what’s in the Epstein files.

Reality: that “extra revenue” is higher costs paid by regular American consumers & businesses, and the “tax relief” is going to the rich not you.

JD is pissing 💦 on your head and telling you it’s raining — and @marshablackburn is using this line also as she runs for governor.

They’re really out here about to debunk the “immigrants steal our jobs” trope for us. Meanwhile, prices will skyrocket, businesses will close, and people will die.

Trump cares only about protecting himself and the perpetrators. That’s why they’ve ignored the survivors since the beginning.
With each accommodation this administration makes for Ghislaine Maxwell, it retraumatizes the victims and minimizes the harm she caused. And we're supposed to believe that these are the people who are super concerned with pedophelia and sex trafficking? Are MAGA supporters still buying this shit?

MORE from Virginia Giuffre's family:

"The government and the President should never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency."

“Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster who deserves to rot in prison for the … violence and abuse she put not just our sister Virginia through, but many other survivors."
BREAKING: New statement from Virginia Giuffre's family.

"It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been 'stolen' from Mar-a-Lago. It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal actions."
