So glad CNN uses Department of War now. That'll surely get them on Trump's good side.

This, after @cnn.com edited a video of Stephen Miller just not talking after saying "plenary authority" and pretended it was a technical difficulty.

"A tradition" when it's the law. It's a violation of law.

Washington Post really went to shit this year, huh.

The U.S. Treasury shared a proposal to mint $1 Trump coins to mark America’s 250th anniversary.

But U.S. code says only deceased individuals may appear on U.S. currency, a tradition dating back to efforts to break from monarchical rule. https://wapo.st/4pWsyL3

@joshuaclaytor.bsky.social omg dude Amy's first video she already brought up she was a Marine and fighter pilot.

If she had said she was a mom, she would've hit the trifecta.

She raised an all time record for Kentucky politics (which, I guess, is the reason this is happening again).

Not once did she try to help down ballot races. Instead she blew threw over 90 million while she gave the KY Dems $700,000.

Outspent Mitch 2 to 1 and still lost.

Kentucky deserves a senator with the decency and courage to stand up and speak out for our state. I won’t sit back and watch what’s happening in this country. That’s why I’m running for the U.S. Senate.

"Country over Party" is a slogan.

But Amy McGrath is going to raise like 200 million and get maybe 40% of the vote.

The downfall of the Tennessee Titans can be traced back to Jeff Jarrett no longer coming out for the team

They have NWA Crocket Cup 2025 on this gym TV and why in the fuck are they wrestling without pads around the ring??!

Bill Watts might be happy but this is 2025. They used to have them too!

Ridiculous company Billy Corgan. Bumps on concrete is super unsafe

Big nerd moment here but as a huge Tron fan I feel like I'm going to be let down big time by Tron: Ares.

It seemingly has no connection to the other two. Like, is Evan Peters playing Cillian Murphy's son? Is Quorra and Sam non-existent?

Oh yeah, also Jared Leto.

How is it not clear when the text of the law is very clear?

Buy new glasses I guess.

Last time he was president, he was railing against "leaks" and people talking to the press.

Now, they just have a large ass phone open in broad daylight with text so big someone can see it two miles away.
