Republicans won’t show up to vote on paying our troops during the shutdown because avoiding a vote on the Epstein files to protect Trump and his friends is more important.

I’m so relieved to see this kind of disgusting apathy and greed being called out. Thought we’d never get to this point. Stop worshipping money and those who hoard way more than their fair share while the others suffer.

Who’s going to shut up and comply? Not the “regular” folk. Talk to your comfort class circle and tell them to get off their asses already. Or are we supposed to keep sacrificing ourselves for their comfort while they sit back and criticize? Oh wait, that’s the entire point of this system, isn’t it?

Everything he does is corrupt and illegal and easily proven to be so, yet no one does a thing ever. Strangely suspicious…

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions.

These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water.

AI is boosting the stock portfolios of the richest Americans while everyone else pays the price.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Holy shit who the fuck cares. I have nothing but contempt for celebrities who pretend things are normal. The depravity doesn’t touch them, so they just do not care.
