Trump wants to put his face on the National Parks pass and make his own birthday a free entry day.
But will there even be parks left to enjoy after his big ugly budget cuts? https://youtu.be/HS7IJaB5NDc?si=qH56WbCp9wnvVDI0

Who the fuck would listen to Howard push back against gun reform in the wake of the biggest tragedy in decades (and no one is saying it’s just gun reform which is needed, ofc hate in all forms, including anti-Semitism is horrendous) and come to the conclusion that THIS is the take?!

Trump has been on a nonstop mission to make this country more dangerous, restoring gun rights to felons and shutting down the programs that help communities. When you strip away safeguards and flood the streets with more guns, rising violence isn’t an accident—it is policy.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

An econ professor put it bluntly: the best snapshot of our economy is the unemployment rate — and it’s now the highest it’s been in four years. No wonder Americans feel the strain. Trump didn’t fix the economy. He cracked it.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
