You remember when, a couple of years ago, a certain set started wearing shirts with helicopters and the phrase "Pinochet did nothing wrong" on them?

They weren't kidding then and they aren't now, and those days are coming closer and closer if we don't stop them.
Time to start paying attention to Florida attorney general James Uthmeier, the brains behind Alligator Auschwitz. He's only 37 and is a Florida version of Stephen Miller. He's the future of MAGA.

Trump helped Canada’s Liberal Party candidate, Mark Carney, win the Prime Minister race. The Liberal Party was considered to be all but dead just a few months ago. It’s reported that many voted for Carney because of Trump.

At least he’s a benefit to someone’s government!

It’s horrifying that Gov. Shapiro and his family had to go through this. I pray he and his family will be free fear and will find peace tonight.

Every Gov. no matter their party should have issued a statement of support for Shapiro and a condemnation of antisemitic violence.

Seriously, this is one of the biggest highlights of my time in politics.

@aoc.bsky.social has such an incredible future, and I'm here for it.

Look at this excitement in Utah. More Democrats need to take notes.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"
