I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that we, the United States of America, are going to allow a *traitor* to occupy the While House - OUR house.

This debacle has gone beyond anything I could imagine. And it will get worse - much worse.

I think it is fair to say that we’re a Pathocracy, don’t you?

If Stephen Miller sees this, he’ll have an orgasm.👇🏼

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Damn, looks like a tough crowd!

This could get very interesting. Today, Trump ordered Hegseth to “pay the troops.” Like Pete can just whip out the checkbook. 🙄

This could be fun. 🍿

Life isn’t always fair.

Neither is death.

📌The lovable Diane Keaton has died at 79, while the revolting 79-year-old Donald Trump lives ...

Man, I am sick of this world right now.

Hey #SanDiego, Allison Gill of Mueller, She Wrote fame is speaking again at our No Kings protest.

She’s our very own Yess Queen 👸 and so very welcome 🤗 (sorry, not sorry, rest of America)

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!

Orbán is a hero in MAGA circles. Bolsonaro is a MAGA idol too. You remember him - the Brazilian dude in prison for trying to overthrow the government.

Only the best people make the MAGA cut!

Well hold on a minute! Stephen Miller says that antifa is a well organized and funded cabal determined to overthrow the government! 😂🤣

Antifa is not real. The Heritage Foundation is, and they are a mortal enemy of the Republic.

The right wing is coming for Wikipedia

The Heritage Foundation says it will "identify and target" Wikipedia editors over alleged bias. What does that mean for Wikipedia’s future?

Classic Keystone Kops fascism. I’m surprised that nobody has unleashed a biological attack on us, since we don’t have a goddamn thing to counter one!

As Kevin correctly notes, this is a template straight from the playbook of the Caesars. It's how the republic became the principate, and how the principate later became the dominate. A military dependent on no other institution except the patronage of the emperor.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Israelis in Jerusalem cheering the mention of Trump’s name like he’s the long awaited Messiah disgusts me.

Here’s the deal: if Trump and his leech son-in-law were told they cannot build a Gaza Riviera on those beaches, Trump would drop Israel and Gaza like a bad habit.

This is all about greed.
