to hear Trump tell it, American elections were completely corrupted while he was president and he was helpless to stop it, then they were cleaned up by Biden ahead of Trump's victory in 2024, and now that Trump is president again they are once again becoming third world caliber

"But here’s the thing, sometimes the fight takes a while. That doesn’t mean we won’t win. The important thing is don’t ever give up. Don’t ever stop trying to make the world a better place." -Kamala Harris
The only election interference happening in this country is coming straight from the White House, and no amount of pathetic late night rambling from a failing, fading president will change anyone’s mind
Listen, I hate Google as much as the next person, but not adding steps when you manually add activity in the horrific Google Health app that "replaced" the Fitbit app may be the final straw. Anyone at Google seeing this? Maybe the AI overlord is taking notice? Please correct ASAP
I'm a Democrat. I support human rights. I support Israel's right to exist as a Jewish homeland. I oppose most Israeli gov'ts actions in Gaza after their initial response to 10/7. I support a Palestinian state next to Israel @ 1967 borders. None of this is $ related. All of these are true at once.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the World Cup. I have loved cheering for the US team. Then that fucker intervened. Yes, the red card was excessive, but I would rather lose because of it than win because Imbecile called FIFA. The joy is gone. Now we’re the bad guys. He destroys everything.
Wearing my red, white, and blue for the 4th. Happy birthday, America! May you soon live up to your founding ideals again. #4thofJuly #NoKings
What has carried our nation forward is not the absence of challenges, but the willingness of ordinary people to meet them with hope, courage, and action. As we celebrate America’s 250th, we must continue to fight for one another, our democracy, and the promise of what we can build together.
Trans athletes in sports and voter fraud fall into the same stupid category: Both happen rarely, have little effect on most people's lives, and take up a huge amount of wasted discussion that should be focused on affordable groceries, housing, and healthcare.
What a day to be alive! Cabo Verde has the game of their lives AND TSwift ties the knot
Amidst all the vacuous chatter about Democratic Socialists being "communists" because they seek universal healthcare, the man with the real communist agenda is Donald Trump—who is securing state-control of major businesses—as he simultaneously turns the state into a vehicle for private enrichment.

There’s a special kind of irony in watching the “shall not be infringed” crowd twist themselves into knots insisting birthright citizenship shouldn’t exist. It’s amazing how flexible “absolute” rights become when they’re someone else’s.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani has balanced New York City's budget. Governor Gavin Newsom has balanced California's budget. Donald Trump has increased the national debt by over 40%. Republicans make vague promises about fiscal responsibility, but Democrats get shit done.
next time you hear someone “throws like a girl” this is what you should assume they mean

Maybe Vance doesn't know this part of history because it's in one of the books his administration has banned. The difference between the Watergate era and now is that back then, Republicans actually did something about a law-breaking president. Today, they only roll over for their cult leader.
/2 Federal perjury investigations for testimony in civil cases are incredibly rare. Nearly unheard of. And I have absolutely never heard of one launched against the prevailing party in a case. Wanton and open corruption.
Those of us in the pro-democracy movement can and should hold both of these positions. 1. We unequivocally reject violence. 2. We will unequivocally oppose efforts by this administration to use last night as an excuse to try to suppress criticism and criminalize dissent.
He's the worst thing that ever happened to America. I despise him BECAUSE I love my country. 🇺🇸
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, the United States had spent that money helping the people of the United States
I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.
The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.
This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.
I'm not sure about you, but I think the collapse of US hegemony, a global price spike and recession, and a new ground war in the Middle East are far worse than drag queens reading books at the library.
Democrats, This should be the centerpiece of every election campaign. We can't have nice things because this idiot started a war, enacted tariffs and cut taxes for his billionaire buddies (the Epstein Class). That's it. The whole campaign.
Eventually, there will be a day when no one mentions donald anymore in the news cycle. Can we please hurry that day along?
Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings
