Let’s keep saying it: IMPEACH… CONVICT… REMOVE.

The beauty of due process is that it is supposed work for everyone. Our system is set up so that even the most vile offender gets the same due process as a completely innocent person. Then, and only then can we say they deserve the punishment we hand out.

Remember when all the ammosexuals said that the second amendment protects us from a tyrannical government? Where are those people now? Why are they sitting idly by and watching as an authoritarian president completely violates the Constitution and tramples on rights?

If you are not deeply offended by the trampling of the constitution by this president, and in particular the clear rejection of due process - you have no business calling yourself a patriot.

Can you imagine the uproar about senility or DEI they would be having on Fox right now if Joe or Kamala dropped the college football trophy while on stage? #VancePAB

There are 53 Republican Senators and 220 Republican House members. If just 4 Republicans in the House voted with Democrats, Trump could be impeached. If just 20 Republicans in the Senate voted with Democrats, Trump could be convicted. Country > Party

Since his tariff “plan” blew up and he has made inflation worse, look for Trump to start vigorously attacking the Fed to lower interest rates. This is a terrible idea and shows he is as ignorant about rates as he is about inflation. Lowering rates will just cause inflation to go higher.

The World’s economy sits in the hands of one man. One delusional, ill-informed, reprehensible man.

I need to talk to this guy’s manager.

One might of thought that America would have watched the UK destroy its economy with Brexit and thought, that was bad and maybe don’t do it. Instead, we took it as a challenge to do even worse for ourselves. It’s like we are a frat boy eating more goldfish than the first idiot.

Maine, what good is having a “moderate” Senator if she is just going to tsk tsk Trump but ultimately just go along with everything he wants? Get rid of Sudan Collins in 2026.

If you are a Republican in Congress that doesn’t like Trump or MAGA but you go along with him\it because you are afraid for your safety or of losing your seat… Fuck you, you don’t deserve your seat.

Rightly or wrongly, many Republicans and MAGA believe government workers are Democrats. A good part of the reason they are cutting the federal workforce is to damage Democrats by taking away their livelihood.

Does anyone even remember the fact that war plans were sent on personal phones using an insecure app with 2 people in the chat who did not have security clearance. The shit rolls in so fast that to keep up, we let some things slide. But that was a big one. I haven’t forgotten.

If they can’t eliminate Social Security, they will make unattainable. How? They will raise the age to 70-75 while at the same time lowering our life expectancy by removing health care and safety regulations. If you die, you won’t collect.

I had to give a speech today to a group of 40-50 people. It was a work topic, totally non-political. It was kind of nice to immerse myself into that and not think about the world collapsing around us for a few minutes. It would be nice to get back to that, instead of a daily existential threat.

This is so true, and it's hilarious.

Try not to laugh.

We could have had the lady with the cute laugh.

Farmers voted for Trump in 2016. He fucked them over with tariffs, then gave them a bailout with our tax dollars. Farmers voted for Trump in 2024. He fucked them over again with even worse tariffs. No fucking bailout this time bitches. FAFO

This won't end well.

China will impose 125% tariffs on U.S. goods from Saturday, up from the 84% previously announced, the finance ministry said on Friday.

That's a nice economy you got there, it would be a shame if something were to happen to it.

If your vote didn't matter, they wouldn't be trying so hard to steal it.

Can we go back to the part where the worst thing he does is shoot somebody on 5th avenue?

As if we didn't have enough to worry about, apparently now there is shit in our butter supply. Did Rome fall this stupidly?

18 days Canada. Stay strong and hold the line. Your friends down here in the US (not all of us are insane) are pulling for you to elect a strong leader. This menace of a leader we have down here needs to be countered with strength.

Even if you take out the “retaliatory” tariffs, the base 10% tariff and the 125% tariff he left with China is still enough to spike inflation and spin us into a recession. He didn’t salvage anything yesterday.

Looks like the markets today are pulling back a little from yesterday’s exuberance. People are realizing that even though we got a temporary reprieve on tariffs, there is still a toddler playing with a handgun in the White House. A single tweet from this mad man can cause the market to react.
