It’s in the Bible. Didn’t they learn to spell that word when they were in Sunday School? 🤣

Unbelievable. This is literally his answer to every new Trump scandal. Congenital liar MAGA Mike. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Raju: Last week, you were very critical of Biden, you said he didn’t even know who was pardoning. On 60 minutes, Trump admitted not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire guilty of money laundering. Is that also concerning?

Johnson: I don’t know anything about it.

ICE is now using facial recognition software— including on American citizens — to detain people its app concludes are in the country illegally.

This, as Trump says ICE raids "haven't gone far enough."

Connect the dots: No one is safe from Trump's tyranny.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

"Where else will you read that the octogenarian Jean Rhys loved to shop at Miss Selfridge?" I reviewed Margaret Atwood's memoir Book of Lives - her 65th book in 65 years - featuring school bullies, an opera about home economics, and the end of the Second World War ("As I recall, it was drizzling").

Margaret Atwood’s memoir: ‘I cackle as I give the plot a good twist’

In Book of Lives, the Canadian novelist talks about her writing and life, from being a bullied ‘flat-chested weirdo’ to losing her partner of 46 years

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.

They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.

They’re refusing.

Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.

Starvation as a policy choice.

Couldn’t put this true story down. What a woman! And the life she lived before the turned 18, not to mention behind enemy lines in WW2.

And don’t get me started reading the comparisons between the Nazis and FOTUS’s MAGA minions.

If you’re happy about SNAP benefits being cut & are going to church this morning you’re neither a Christian nor a good person. You’re a heartless cunt.
