Find yourself someone who loves you as much as Trump loves abusers.

EXCLUSIVE: Members of Trump’s political team asked Ohio Republicans last week not to wage a public pressure campaign against embattled GOP Rep. Max Miller, after they became increasingly convinced he wouldn’t end his reelection bid.

If Joe Biden rolled out in public with that thing on his head, boy howdy.

yall, Trump absolutely has started wearing a toupee just this week and I feel like it needs to be said aloud

I don't know how we're supposed to keep hearing about finding common ground and working towards a future together. There are are just totally irredeemable chunks of the country. 45% for Ken Paxton. During the MAGA dictatorhip attempt. These are not people we can share a body politic with.

Three consecutive polls show James Talarico narrowly ahead of Ken Paxton in the Texas Senate race. The latest: Texas Southern U. has Talarico up 47%-45%. In the past week, a Fox poll had Talarico up 51-48 and a Texas Public Opinion Research survey found Talarico up 45-40.

Every white house tweet is like "TRUST IN TRUMP." or "DADDY'S HOME" and then a picture where he looks like this

I am stupid and went on twitter today. You would think the average person is angrily talking about Anthony Fauci at all times IRL. Just a show for the worst fucking people on earth.

At least gas and food prices are out of control.

I stupidly went on Twitter, and the degree to which the bots and shills are going on about John Thune...it's heartening they feel the SAVE act is this important. They all dove off a cliff together and now they can finally see the ground coming

At this point I have to believe oil traders would react to news from the NORAD Santa tracker. They don't live in anywhere near this reality.

Oil prices tumbled on Monday amid a pause in fighting between the U.S. and Iran.

It's never going to fully compute for me that NYT and other "respectable media outlets" will write a headline about Trump's presidency in normal terms, and then the content of the article is just a series of career ending scandals, and the photo is a man who looks like a dead body in a river.

collapse comes slowly and then all at once. traders seem incapable of recognizing we're in an acute crisis that is set to get worse, and all structural factors indicate no quick way out. It's wild to see a herd of financial buffalo run towards the cliff.

Iran still blocking Strait of Hormuz. A ship trying to run the strait this weekend hit a sea mine and blew up. US still blockading Iranian shipping. Houthi-Saudi escalation disrupting Red Sea exports. Ukraine hit more Russian oil facilities. Oil prices fell and stocks rose on the news.

This just can't be said enough

As unpopular as the Iran war is, the coverage still doesn't do justice to the fact that they just could have not done any of this. There was literally no reason beyond general bloodthirstiness and incompetence.

We have reached the point where simply serving in congress in the GOP right now makes you complicit in something so dangerously negligent that you are not fit to walk free. Prison for all of them. Not impeaching is gross negligence and an act of violence.

Scar on Simba and Mufasa disappearing after a stampede: "Both of them said very strongly, 'Scar and the hyenas must control Pride Rock."

Trump on fallen US troops: "All of them said very strongly, 'We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.'"

Hard to explain the emotions seeing a public servant with the power of his office using the trappings of state to assert a plain moral good. Someone saying the truth just because it's the right thing to do, while abiding by a system of law at least striving for fairness. Zohran simply gets it.

I want a Democratic majority. It's essential to repairing the country. But if it's made up of do-nothing centrist losers there to collect bribes, we'll be back in fascism within 8 years

Scary Mr. Olmec Man@scarymrolmecman.bsky.social · 4w ago

Also something that these centrists will never grasp is that DSA's goal is not "build a Democratic majority in Congress." It is to change society!

@theatlantic.com publishing this is your right and all, but what is wrong with you?

The DSA Is a Parasite The left-wing faction is hijacking the Democratic Party. by James Kirchik www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I understand that it sucks to have to read a book you didn't choose as a kid but when people are like 40 and still going, "well assigned reading turned me off from reading" it's like, ok but you're 40. No one has assigned you a book in like 20 years.

I have a piece in the NYT today arguing that the law should permit victims of ICE abuse to sue not just individual officers, but supervisors and policymakers like Stephen Miller and Gregory Bovino. A Democratic president and Congress could do this in 2029. And they could make it retroactive.

Congress must push back against our inhumane immigration tactics.
