But they wanted to teach Kamala Harris and the Democrats a lesson last November. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I though the MAGA line was that there was no #greedflation and Walmart and co were raising prices because Biden?

Incase you missed it, the government is on high alert because Comey apparently trained seashells to create formations, photographed them, then published it. If he had just printed up some tee shirts, everything would have been cool.

Moody’s downgraded the US credit rating for the first time in over 100 years.

There's always a tweet.

It’s honestly sad that Elon’s DOGE fired all those park rangers and scientists claiming they are trying to balance the budget only for Moody’s to downgrade America’s credit rating because we’re about to get $4 trillion more in debt giving tax cuts to the rich.

I heard there was a U.S credit downgrade by Moody’s. Guess which Governor helped Illinois get nine credit rate increases in six years? I’m sure he’d be willing to give some tips.

So weird. I wonder who at X would have both the motivation and the access to circumvent normal protocol and incompetently try to make Grok pretend “white genocide” in South Africa is a thing.

xAI says employee made unauthorized changes causing unprompted “white genocide” responses… no indication of who that employee might be or what is happening to them

Environmentalism without class struggle is recycling your soup cans while Elon Musk builds a data center outside Memphis to power Grok and it’s making an entire community of Black Americans sick.

Are we all just going to ignore how Trump helped pen a nearly $100 billion trade deal between Boeing and Qatar after accepting a $400 million 747-8 “palace of the skies” as a gift from the royal family? Smells fishy.

Make Bribery Wrong Again

Donald Trump plans to accept a $400 million bribe from a country he once called a state sponsor of terrorism, and yet Republicans don’t…

Now that Boeing is back in the news, remember those Boeing whistleblowers who mysteriously, perhaps suspiciously died last year?

In the Star Wars universe, you can buy Q-4LLM droids that give you flattering wrong answers about how to become a Jedi and eventually tell you that you can only bring balance to the Force by killing your friends and family

I truly hope an enterprising reporter looks into who these “refugees” are from South Africa. The administration swears they’ve been vetted, but considering how much they lie, I’m skeptical. What’s their financial situations? And were they in danger in any way?

RFK Jr. can dress it up in data and health research all he wants.

Pritzker saw it for what it was: authoritarian bullshit.
And he blocked it. Immediately. 🔥
That’s leadership. ✊🏼

Call on your governors to do the same!!

“Illinois governor, JB Pritzker, has signed a first-in-the-nation executive order to block the federal government from collecting personal health data related to autism…”

All states should follow his lead to protect those with Autism.
