“Peace through economic strength”, Bessent?

I’m sorry, are we somehow at war with Argentina & I wasn’t aware of it?

And would you define the US as peaceful or economically strong right now?

While you assholes are buying puppet presidents in SA, you’re declaring war on America.

Go fuck yourself.

I called all 4 of my congressman yesterday & told them will not tolerate an enemy of the state who bankrolls extremist Muslim terrorists to infiltrate our military bases.

Not in my back yard, traitors!

That’s what members of a cult do.

Americans are defaulting on home and car loans and struggling to stay afloat financially - all while the GOP wants to take away your healthcare - but sure, let’s give this Trump butthole licker $20 billion taxpayer dollars because he’s an asshole who can’t run his own fucking country right…got it.

Congressman Greg Landsman @repgreglandsman.bsky.social · 2d

The $20 billion bailout of Argentina is happening, but there’s no money to lower healthcare costs for Americans?

If we can ever get out of this mess, either by voting these fuckers out or (God help us) civil war, we are likely to discover depths of corruption and depravity that would make Putin blush.

If I had to sum up almost a year into the Trump regime’s brutality and our peaceful resistance in the face of it in one picture, this would do the job.

Well, considering King Cankles and his evil sidekick Pete Kegsbreath just decided to allow the Qatari regime - who spend billions funding the very same Islamic terrorists who attacked Israel - to infiltrate our military bases, I’d say this assessment is pretty fucking spot-on.

Actually, I’d say Maria Corina Machado’s win is something of a compromise/consolation prize for Trump.

I can both commend her work fighting against the vicious regime of one dictator while lambasting her for cheering a foe of democracy here in the US:

This should shock us all.

Judges don’t typically speak to the press. And certainly not to speak out against the highest court in the land.

To me, this is something akin to an SOS call.

Just as the Trump regime is trying to hasten the demise of democracy, so too is the SCOTUS.

God help us…

When federal judges are openly speaking to the press about their concerns regarding the jurisprudence and conduct of the highest court in America, that is a problem.

Read: Judges don’t typically speak to the press.

This is them sending out an SOS…

Leah Litman @leahlitman.bsky.social · 1d

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Wife of a former public health official who had the good sense to quit working for the government during Trump 1.0:

God fucking help us if the next pandemic - and there will be a next pandemic- breaks out on this Admin’s watch.

We are so fucked. RFKrackers Jr is literally insane.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

This story bright tears to my eyes - and reminded me of Anne Frank.

I have never been so angry about what’s happening in our country - and when I see the protestors and people like this wonderful man helping others, I can honestly say I’m proud to be an American.

WE, the people, will prevail…

Sounds like Benny is a card-carrying MAGA snowflake.

While we can all agree that’s it’s never a good idea to threaten people we don’t agree with, I refuse to be lectured by AG Blondie about being “nice” to a right wing troll.

Where’s justice for the judge whose house was burned to the ground?!

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

So let me get this straight, GOP:
