If you give me a trillion dollars I will also build factories on the Moon. I promise. Money up front though.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2h agoQ: What message does it send if Trump fires a US attorney because she determined there was not sufficient evidence to charge four people with a crime? BLANCHE: If he fires a US attorney, it turns out he's allowed to do that because he's the president
when Trump won by less than a percentage point we were told woke was dead forever and MAGA would be a dynasty

we have bigger issues facing this country than a thing thats never happened in the wnba and a nonexistent threat to thanksgiving
how humiliating. you’re a fucking senator
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
me watching Democrats get asked about canceling Thanksgiving for the next three months while Republicans oversee another forever war and economic recession
Normally it would be a huge story that the President of the United States is using the full force of the government to prosecute innocent people just so he can continue to lie about the absolute dumbest shit in the world.

the next president has a duty to the country to prove that “tax immunity” is a completely made up thing that doesnt exist. they need to do this through intense prosecution to signal to future leaders what will happen if they try this
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 2d agoFLAG: Trump gets to keep tax immunity for himself, his sons, and the Trump Organization under the new 'deal' struck by Todd Blanche. The new order also reaffirms that Trump won't have to pay any taxes he might have owed the IRS.
i think the party of sick freaks who want to inspect kid's private parts should be branded as such
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 2d agoAn initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
Sophie Cunningham is pretty obviously setting herself up to cash in on the right wing grift now that she knows she can’t hack in it the league. If you can’t see this coming you need to get some glasses.
you will never get me to recognize "arlington texas" as a real place

So does my four year old nephew but we didn’t give him access to the fucking nuclear codes.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoSen. John Kennedy on Trump's blatant reflecting pool lies: "The president says it was caused by vandals. I don't know if he really believes that or it's part of his political messaging or he's just thinking out loud ... he grows anxious when he has an unexpressed thought."
I'd also just note that Trump always does shit like this when he has a week where it's shown he has literally 0 juice. Can't get the senate to listen on the save act, can't get his AG nominated.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4d agoTrump posts meme suggesting he wants to run for an illegal third term, then follows that up with posts suggesting he wants to annex Greenland and Venezuela
people on here will post anything. “the astros have won more games than they’ve lost. they’re in first place.” no they aren’t. that can’t possibly be true.

Jeanine Pirro should be disbarred before she can finish her sixth glass of wine at happy hour today.
Remember, if a Democrat said something like this about a red state it would be an administration-ending scandal.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoTrump: "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."
So weird that Republicans have spent the last week yelling about COVID instead of how great the war in Iran is going or how awesome the economy is
these are bribes and theyre illegal and when people are like “what do you want the dems to do,” i just want them to say what i just said and promise to investigate as a crime when theyre in power, disincentivizing businesses from participating in this farce
Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 6d agoFour-byline alert: 🚨 “.. no sitting American president has ever raised these amounts for his pet projects. ..

If a Democrat suggested that Americans deal with high consumer costs by eating liver Fox News viewers would have burned his down.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · 6d agoRFK Jr. suggests Americans can more easily afford groceries if they start eating liver instead of beef: "Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. ... You can buy liver"
The official Republican position on COVID is that it was a mild case of the flu but also an engineered bioweapon and the vaccine that Trump miraculously pushed out in a under a year is worthless sugar water but actually killed millions and it’s really Fauci and Joe Biden’s fault.
How Anthony Fauci should respond to every Republican lunatic in the Senate
