Dear Democrats,
I was a Republican voter from 1980 to 2015. I sat out the 2 Party shit show in 2016 & 2020. But after J6, I showed up in 2024 to defeat the fascists, and, for the 1st time in my life, voted Democrat in every race. I have one question for y’all…
WHERE THE FUCK WERE Y’ALL?

Turns out the Trump administration murdered some fishermen in distress.
The most incompetent administration we've ever had.

Former conservative news employee (who suspiciously doesn't own a hair brush) explains why she quit conservative media.
They strategize how to make their base believe statistically small things are chronic problems. And encourage panic and fear - and invariably dependence - because of them.

Booker: Here’s the thing, I think you’re not going to be around long. I think this might be your last oversight hearing. This may the last time I have a hearing with you because I don’t think you’re long for this job.

Cryptocurrency or, as I call it, the Dunning-Krugerrand.
Why TF would anyone buy crypto in the first place, let alone a cheesey memecoin like Dogecoin with an unlimited supply cap?
Anyone who “invests” in any of this crypto nonsense is a fool being parted from his money.
Hard assets or GTFO.

NEW: DA Alvin Bragg is refusing to throw out the 34 felony count conviction of Trump but is putting the case on hold for now. He indicates he will fight any Trump motion to dismiss.

While Trump crows about his great COVID record, remember this, from the COVID Crisis Group (a bipartisan collection of scientists and public health experts), in a study published last year.

So Trump’s Border Czar nominee wrote the section on the border for Project 2025’s manifesto and Trump’s FCC nominee wrote the section on the FCC for Project 2025. But Trump had no connection to it and doesn’t know anything about it.

Trump taps FCC's Brendan Carr to lead the agency
Carr was seen as a pretty conventional Republican with a pro-corporate outlook for most of his career. More recently, he has embraced Trumpian themes about social media, tech and television companies.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.
