If you’ve earned even a very modest income, and pretty much lived within your means…chances are almost certain that you’ve gotten more enjoyment out of life…than Donald Trump…has…out of his.

The American taxpayer is about to feel the strain of a crippling recession. But don’t worry. Millionaires and billionaires will be just fine.

Yes, under codified law the House (Congress) can bring up legislation that involves tariffs put into place by POTUS under a national emergency. These cowards are now relinquishing that responsibility.

After Russia attacked Ukraine

-President Zelenskyy’s country stood as a barrier between Putin and all western democracies

-Providing aid to Ukraine boosted the US economy

-And Putin’s army has been devastated, greatly reducing his ability to hurt America

Has JD Vance said thank you once

Elon Musk just called Social Security a Ponzi scheme, so it’s worth reiterating: All functional retirement schemes, public or private, pre funded or pay as you go, are claims on future production - there's just no way, at scale, of storing current production for use during retirement

Kennedy objecting to Elizabeth Warren's questions about the payments he's taken from lawsuits against drug companies. Wants him to commit to not taking those payments during his time at HHS. "You're making me sound like a shill." Well. Well!!!

MAGA Republicans are the toddler in our proverbial family, a little shit that really runs the household via tantrums and misbehavior because the adults refused to discipline the child and spoiled it rotten. Now, the bratty monstrosity tests its boundaries at every opportunity w/o consequence.

Holy shit. This is brutal! I'm just going to play this on a loop.
YIKES! Duckworth asks Hegseth to name a country that's in ASEAN. He names three -- none of which are in ASEAN.

"I suggest you do a little homework," she says.

"You had just fathered a child two months before by a woman who was not your wife ... I assume at each of your weddings you pledged to be faithful to your wife" -- absolutely brutal line of questioning here from Kaine to Hegseth on his infidelities and sexual assault accusation

Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

1. I reiterate that I don't think bots/trolls get how comprehensive the "block" function here is.

2. I also think they don't quite get how prevalent "don't engage, just block" is as an ethos here.

3. Bluesky is a neighborhood party: everyone is welcome until they're a jerk. Then out they go.
