This is not going to end well. Sooner or later an American citizen is going to get killed.

Actually this is exactly what you voted for and enabled, but better late than never to the opposition I guess.

A screenshot of an X.com post by @RollingStone
, Rolling Stone, posted 13 hours ago, stating, "I voted for none of this. Prominent influencers, including Theo Von, Joe Rogan, and Andrew Schulz, are starting to distance themselves from the president they helped propel to the White House," with a link to a story on rollingstone.com/politics/politics. The post includes a "REWIND" section with a headline "MANOSPHERE INFLUENCERS WHO BOOSTED TRUMP ARE NOW COOLING ON HIM" by Nikki McCann Ramirez, dated October 6, 2025, and a photo of Theo Von making a peace sign at an event in Nashville, Tennessee, on March 9, 2025.

Exactly!

(They) F’ng voted FOR it!

The MAGAt influencers can “distance“ all they want but what are they going to do to “FIX IT!”

Like kids running from a schoolyard fight so as not to be hauled into the Principal’s as “instigators”

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH:

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."

Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."

djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."

And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

Listen: we have to take Trump seriously because, unfortunately, he is the actual President.

Trump is a joke, and not always a funny one.

But we need to call attention to his rambling and incoherent rants.

This was ONE press conference.

Trump has cracked down on universities and abducted student protestors. He sued news outlets over reporting he didn’t like. He cut off funding for public broadcasting because he thought it was biased against him.

We must fight back against all of Trump’s attacks on free speech.

Jeff Bezos was worth $194 billion at the end of 2024.

He’s currently worth $231.5 billion as of today.

It would take him just 17 days to see his net worth increase by $2.5 billion.

Thanks to Trump, 1 in 4 nursing homes could close.

Community clinics are on the brink of shutting their doors.

Hospitals, already filled to the brim with patients, are bracing for huge cuts.

Promising research that offers the last hope for kids with cancer is shutting down.

Truth!

“Trickle Down” was voodoo economics from the start

It was more like the “Great Flood” of weath up to the 1%

Trillions stolen from avg Americans and handed over to the Wealthy

The military will be forced to pledge an oath of obedience to Trump and his “Fourth Reich” or be immediately fired

Wondering why grocery prices are high?

Little-to-no competition across the entire food supply chain allows for a price gouging free-for-all.

Corporate monopolies get rich, and we pay the tab.

What is Trump doing about it? Nothing.

Trump's second term has been filled with chaos and dysfunction. But none of it is random.

It's part of a plot to spread cynicism and get you to check out.

Oligarchs don't want you to keep paying attention. That's how they win.

Don't tune out. Don't let them win.

The great sleeping giant of America always remains asleep until some venality becomes so noxious, some action so disrespectful of the common good, some brutality so noisy, that he has no choice but to awaken.

I believe that sleeping giant is awake – and turning the tide on Trump.
