This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

You wanna really hate Musk? Even basic returns on his trillion dollar wealth earns him two billion dollars a week. Without him doing anything but invest in index funds

When I worked ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ it was no secret that Melania hated Trump. Vanky hated Melania, Eric was an idiot & everyone hated Don Jr. It was also, no secret that Jared was in it for the access & had some nasty plans up his slender sleeves. Russian mob was all up in it.

Remember when Republicans were up in arms that some of their phone records had been subpoenaed related to an insurrection? Because whatever excuse they needed at the time for their outrage. Here, they won't even say what the investigation is related to. They just need it to look bad

The diesel fuel deal with Russia gives us a trade deficit of the size of the diesel fuel deal with Russia. We sell them nothing; sanctions out the wazoo. Are trade deficits not bad in Trump's eyes anymore? Or does he just shake a magic восемь ball and pick a course of action based on it.

Can you name a single person Trump thinks of as opposition who has doesn't think is evil? Weird, right? Like you have to start off thinking that opposing you is evil to land somewhere like that

I see this as no different than the Son of Sam killer murdering people because he thinks his dog told him to. It's talking to your glorified pocket watch, which is always going to tell you what your insanity wants

Trump Was Reportedly Pushed Into Invading Venezuela by Conversation With Grok

Trump reportedly consulted with Grok for hours on his next course of action in Venezuela before launching a military invasion.

The money was meant to go to Medicare recipients anyway. This is stealing the money to use it in an unplanned, wasteful way. This is effectively Trump taking the lumber meant to build a house to shelter the cold citizens and using it to start a bonfire instead

Trump, being President, can't issue $5000 checks even if he wanted to. Which he doesn't. It would come from Congress. They spend money. Notice they aren't mentioning they'd do this? Because they are not immune to criminal prosecution like the President, and they KNOW this is a bribery offer

The wives of both our President and Vice-President are immigrants. That wouldn't be odd in any administration except this one because they are rabidly anti-immigrant. It's almost as if they don't believe in what they "preach"

Mike Rogers is a corporate sellout who moves back to Michigan every few years to run for office to take another swing at the revolving door of corporate politics.

"Super" intelligence is a weird thing to call something less intelligent than spell-check

To Trump, only the offer to give you $5000 has any value to him. He's trying to bribe you you to go out and vote for his party. Giving you the money after you've done what he wanted, isn't in his interest so you aren't getting paid. Like contractors he's worked with in the past. It's his MO

I keep saying this, but it's feeling more and more true. Trump wants the GOP to lose bigly in the mid-terms so they are in the desperate position he needs them in for 2028 when he tries to run again. He is forcing them to cozy up to him now, knowing how deeply unpopular he is. To drag them down.

If I'd paid for a car and was still waiting on delivery after two years, I'd be angry. I'd be even more angry if they told me it would only take them two more years to deliver the vehicle This is what happened to GOP voters. They were sold something and are being asked to buy it again, undelivered

Like why move forward with AI at all? The upside is negligible and the downside is extinction event. It's like flipping a coin that earns you $5 for a heads, nothing for a single tails but 3 tails in a row and you die. Here we are just flipping wildly

Bill Gates says unchecked AI could ‘cause a billion deaths’ in call for regulation

I don't think it is just high gas prices dooming Trump. It's that his followers are watching him flail fecklessly trying to figure out how to low gas prices. He might as well be waving his arms and chanting to lower gas prices. They've finally realized he doesn't know how to do anything

Every reason we think health insurance is good, single-payer is better. Larger pooled costs and more bargaining power with health care providers. The difference is one has to earn profit enough to justify itself. The other has to work.

Trump's attack on the Freedom of the Press should be framed that it is an attack on the American public's right to know what Trump is doing

I'm just gonna ignore that whole Greenland fantasy from Trump unless Denmark puts out a statement. Assume great-grandpa got loose too close to bedtime

Trump wants to make this election all about him. He's on the ballot. His words. What candidate would bar MS NOW, CNN, or Politico while trying to run a campaign? Not a sane one. Not one who felt that they had a good sign to show off. Trump wants the GOP to lose now so they will need him for 2028

Can we just collectively stop thinking of the ability to make money as good? Capitalism and its determination that whatever maximizes profit is the most good is pure horseshit. That was the real Devil's Greatest Trick

"This is major damage to our bases that hasn't been communicated to the American public" Democracy fails if the public isn't being informed. How can you vote for your interests when they hide that fact? Lies kill democracy. Trump killed democracy.

"I don't do politics" worked well when the political differences were if we needed to raise corporate taxes or income tax to pay for Medicaid expansion "I don't do politics" ended when one of the two parties said half of humans aren't human. "I don't do politics" agrees with that party by default

This is absolutely criminal hacking. It's using the tools the system has for us to self-check our registrations, and they are pretending to be us (collectively) to check registrations. This is no different than them doing password recovery on our accounts. Self-help tools illegally used

Democratic politicians have to be realistic. A Any voter you'd lose by supporting trans rights was going to vote Republican anyway. You are their hate-lite at best However, you will absolutely lose Democratic voters by being anti-trans. No one votes for a group that sacrifices some of themselves

It is impossible to support JK Rowling or any of the HP properties without supporting trans genocide. I'm boycotting anyone who is in the new HP series in whatever else they do. No one can be blind to the hate JK Rowling peddles.
