There is no hell but the one Brian Thompson is in. I’m an angry leftist— paying attention for decades made me this way. If I offend you, know it’s only because we’re both workers who should be united and friends - and I’m mad we’re not.

Maybe the Democrats should put Merrick Garland on the case.

(As AG, he & Biden let the clock run out on Trump's 2016-17 Russian election interference crimes)

"We have a rising new Dem star who really engages with people, and is sure to win their next election."

DEM LEADERSHIP: That's fantastic.

"What are the next steps?"

DEM LEADERSHIP: Simple. Force them to step aside and throw their support behind this 80-year-old lifetime politician.

Department of State v
@StateDept
The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans.
The State Department continues to identify visa holders who celebrated the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk. Here are just a few examples of aliens who are no longer welcome in the U.S.:

Don't worry, they're about to have an AI doing it. Lord knows those are historically known for their accuracy 😌

So the State Department is just revoking visas by tweet, based on tweet?

You’re insane if you’re defending billionaires.

By the way. That’s literally what Elon Musk tells himself all the time.

“People hate me because I’m rich” is maximum cope.

There’s so many things that help with ADHD overwhelm, but nothing helps like playing a game that gives you a lot of joy. Regulating mood is essential with ADHD, and finding ways to do that is one of the tricks to managing ADHD. It’s not always possible, however.

Look. I held out hope for her. I’m just one of many people who expect more from artists than tacitly supporting fascism while joining the oligarchy.

A. Ruby Rose is a lunatic and I wouldn’t quote her in a book about her own life for fear of destroying its credibility.

B. Ever heard the phrase actions speak louder than words?

JD Vance said Trump was Hitler. What can we infer from that?

Her close friend Britney Mahomes is a Nazi like MTG.

So you think exploiting and abusing people is okay IF someone else is doing it as president?

That doesn’t really make any sense. I call out billionaires regardless of if there are other billionaires.

Is the economy crashing a recession indicator?

“Once rare, 7-year car loans are fast becoming the norm. They’re often the only way buyers can afford new rides, with average sale prices surging 28% in 5 years to approach $50k.”

Designed-in car dependency, surging car prices, longer loan periods with more interest.

Sound like “freedom” to you?

Cars are so expensive that buyers need 7-year loans

Once rare, seven-year car loans are fast becoming the norm. They’re often the only way buyers can afford new rides, with average auto prices nearing $50,000.

If I were a Mainer, and I'm not a Mainer, and the Senate election were today, I'd vote for Graham Platner to take on Susan Collins. Simply put, I can't think of a metric by which Janet Mills would be better against Collins, better for Maine, or better for the Democratic Party than Platner. THREAD.

Yes, we indeed have a serious problem.

A tweet by Robert Reich reads:
“The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.”

I just saw an unidentified agent with a badge in clothing that appeared like he JUST rolled out of bed trying to grab someone off the NYC subway. Other passengers calmly continued to ask what he was doing, film and stand in the way. The agent left the train car. Let us all protect each other.

Where’s the BG lie? A 13 year old was arrested by ICE and sent to a Virginia detention facility. It happened. Meanwhile, DHS has produced no evidence that a child had a rap sheet and is alleging unverifiable claims to save face.

She is a billionaire.

She is on the actual villains list.

I had held out hope for her, but she's a money over people person... like her current maga circle of friends.
