No one who took Trump seriously believed for one second that he was going to engage in foreign policy actions any different than exactly what he has done.

We warned all of you. We told you who and what he was.

You didn’t listen.

In Defense of Immigrants and Calling Out Trump and the Real Fraudsters

You can commit fraud, sexual assault, and even rape kids in America as long as you wear a MAGA hat and support Donald Trump, but don't you dare be Somalian or a person of color!

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Not sure I understand why the Trump administration cares about Christians in Nigeria and not Christians in Ukraine

Liberals are constantly trying to indoctrinate our young people. You can see the proof in this colorful PragerU video presented by the Young America's Foundation at a Turning Point USA school club meeting.

“The private conversations in the Young Republicans’ Telegram chat were only marginally more racist and hateful than the language that’s out in the open, common on the most popular podcasts in America,” our columnist David French writes.
Opinion | Trump Is Dragging Us Down to His Level
The Young Republicans’ Telegram chat was revealing in so many ways.

I like how they are carrying American flags, but not attacking police with them.

this is why I think the admin spending all week yelling about a “hate America” rally was stupid

anyone who tunes in gets to see funny signs, joyful crowds and shit like “an enormous constitution being carried to the White House”

this is a crowd that loves America and wants it to be better
Giant copy of the Constitution being carried down Pennsylvania Avenue.

Trump is turning DOJ into a weapon of revenge

From Comey to Bolton to Tish James — anyone who held him accountable is now a target

This is not democracy
It’s a rewrite of Jan 6, of history itself
It’s retaliation, not justice

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

the thing everyone is going to have to accept is that the post-trump period, whenever it comes, will not and cannot be a project of national unity, it must be a project of partisan project of renewal, in the same way that reconstruction and the new deal were partisan projects of renewal.

it's pretty frustrating how republicans can just spew endless lies about city life with zero repercussions but the moment a dem disparages a pickup truck it's open season

Some folks haven’t spent decades fighting a GOP-dominated government and it shows…

The GOP always lies. They are corrupted by big donors. They cover up both lies and corruption. They never admit to any wrongdoing. They project their illegal activity on to the other side.

Rinse. Repeat.

News media coverage of Los Angeles has been so distorted it’s unrecognizable. They’re basically close-ups of anything that looks a mess, not to mention the unnecessary troops and police. It is far more dangerous here after a Dodgers win of a big game!! At best, 2-3 blocks. Maybe 150 people.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

An extraordinary separate dissent from Justice Jackson accuses the majority of trying to pass off its dirty work under the cover of the shadow docket and explicitly invokes Korematsu, the Japanese internment case. Wow. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

What did you expect when you elected someone whose only interests are staying out of jail, lining his pockets, and seeking revenge against his enemies. This is exactly what you voted for, team MAGA.

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

US Senators from every one of these states—AR, TX, KY, MO, OK, MS, TN—(1) approved Trump/Musk/Doge cuts to NOAA and FEMA, and (2) said Calif would need to change its internal policies before getting federal help for LA fire disaster.

Every one of these US Senators happens to be MAGA/GOP.
Another home swept away in Frankfort, Kentucky.

16 dead in storms across multiple states.

Arkansas, Texas, Missouri & Oklahoma all hit. Mississippi, Tennessee & Kentucky have declared states of emergency.

No word from Trump. But wait for an update on his golf round later…

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.
