TRUMP: So when you have to pay a little more, it's FOUR DOLLARS. It's okay. AMERICA: If we had just increased our net worths by THREE BILLION DOLLARS in the past year like you, we wouldn't give a shit about this affordability crisis you created either. But we aren't thievin' madmen, so it matters.
If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits. There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.
So Carolyin' Leavitt is leaving. But who will he choose to replace her? Does anyone even exist with that same stellar commitment to truth and transparency? (Just a hunch.)
Here, ICE. Since you've got blood on your hands, here's 380-volt stun-gloves.
What do we say when the man you sold your soul for so obviously doesn’t care whether you live or die? Rubio, Bessent, Miller, Cheung, Needham, Scharf: You got Penced, you worthless decoys! (Now please eat shit.)

As a matter of national security, I need to know: who the fuck let him out?
Washington Post was close. Democracy dies at 4:31 on a Saturday morning.
The Bill Cassidy version of the Hippocratic Oath: First, do lots and lots of harm by confirming RFK, Jr. Second, do even more massive harm to the country by confirming Consigliere Blanche, currently being investigated for fraud.
Spineless GOP congress just announced it's new tagline: "Thank you, sir, may I have another?"
Getting angry will get us nowhere. Just arrest an Olympian.
Oh, he's going to rescind the slush fund now, is he? So if somebody un-crimes, then it's a-okay to make them the Head of the Justice Department? What the fuck is wrong with this Republican Congress?
Trump has been so devastating to our environment even the seashells and the grass want him gone.
Cornyn & Tillis: Well, you wanted something in writing. Here it is. This administration lies. It's what they do. So instead of a confirmation, you paragons of virtue, let's go for an impeachment of the Acting AG.
AMERICA: We smell a rat. SECRET SERVICE AGENT: Can confirm.
Let the history books show: a vote will come before Republican senators on Thursday to confirm a guy they *knew* had created a fraudulent and oversized settlement... and they'll choose that lawbreaker to head up our justice department. Corruption + GOP Cowardice. These people are so fucking gross.
This Jay Clayton. He's one sleeve short of a blazer.
Trump phonecall to FIFA: "What I want to do is this. I just want to find, uh, four goals, which is three more than we have, because we won the game."
Okay, but next time can we please we get the Fyre Festival organizers?
Agoraphobic Convention takes over Trump's American State Fair.
Dear Texas: Will you also be requiring anyone who wants to be your senator to read said same Bible?
I do believe we have finally Trumped the Shark.
Jeanine Pirro sixty seconds ago: "I don't play in political lanes." Jeanine Pirro thirty seconds ago: "I'll take information from anyone, even the Devil." Holy moly. We gotta call this brazen shit out, people. The weaponization of our Justice Department is complete. RESIST. RESIST. RESIST.
