MIKE JOHNSON: More. More. And I have to, because President Trump works 21 hours a day.

Just wait until they discover all the crimes that white people do in MN. Why, one even murdered a lawmaker this spring... I'm afraid we have no, choice, all the white people need to go!
Fox & Friends and Pam Bondi are now sensationalizing specific instances of Somalis being charged with crimes in Minnesota to demonize the whole population

It’s time to talk about my cat. To which you might be saying, “Chuck, I didn’t know you had a cat!” and I’d respond with, “I didn’t know I had a cat either…

Whenever Democrats say “we can’t” about some BS norm, our response must be “ok, YOU can’t, we’re now replacing you with someone who can.”

@klobuchar.senate.gov continues to sell out Minnesota for… what?
Why is she helping the MAGA GOP destroy our legal system?
I’d call her office again but it’s clear she just doesn’t care.
11 Senate Democrats just voted to advance the nomination of a Federal Society judge who used to defend banks and payday lenders:

Durbin
Gallego
Hassan
Hirono
Kaine
Kelly
King
Klobuchar

Great, apparently MAGA took over Pantone too
Pantone’s 2026 color of the year is technically not a color at all — meet Cloud Dancer, the first-ever white shade to receive the designation from the world’s color authority.
Pantone makes a surprising choice for its 2026 color of the year
We did not see that coming.

Has he...seen an SUV?
Are people really asking to DOWNSIZE to a 1970s station wagon?
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

The reason that "It's not even believable" is that it's a lie.
Hope that helps!
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

It’s true. We shouldn’t pretend that. Trumpist culture is not the same as American culture and not equal. Trumpist culture is proudly ignorant, defiantly against America’s founding values and subsequently developed values, venomously bigoted, and generally despicable.
Fox News' Will Cain: "I’m sure there are very honorable law-abiding upstanding citizens and contributors from the Somali community here in the United States, BUT..."

He goes on to say "we aren’t going to pretend here that all cultures are of equal value or the same."

This is called Universal Design, where something is designed technically to help people with disabilities but ends up helping a whole bunch of other people too.

Curb cuts is perhaps the most famous example of this - it's for people in wheelchairs, but everyone uses them.
This is great. I think the whole idea of accommodation should rightly be an invitation to reject an ableist, eugenicist approach to the world and instead ask "What if we want to give *everyone* the chance to do their best?"

Minneapolis IS pretty great!
And Trump IS an asshole!
This is one of those things that I think is quietly important – when these people are talking shit about cities, Portland or Minneapolis or New York or Charlotte or wherever, you have to loudly say, “no, fuck you, you’re lying, that town and its people whip ass and you’re the asshole”

Well, at least they've learned their lesson and are...oh wait, this just in, they confirmed two more of Trump's judges this week, because it appears that most Senators are in fact idiots.
Hegseth and his ilk are why it was dumb for Democratic senators to vote for any of his nominees. Rubio joined the Cabinet without A SINGLE DISSENTING VOTE

You only have to work four hours at the Amazon warehouse to afford lunch - and then it's lunch time!*

*no breaks for lunch will be allowed, stay at your station or be fired

After that, another seven hours and you can afford a snack, too!*

*look, it was in the employee manual, no snack breaks

Real life hunger is a game to these assholes.
Nobody deserves to go to bed, school, work - hell, to the damn couch - hungry.
Except Brooke Rollins. May food turn to ash in her mouth, may her wine turn to vinegar.

Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.
What a racist piece of shit.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."
