Protesting for a cause is one thing — dealing with reimbursements and paperwork is another entirely. Shows that even grassroots movements aren't immune to administrative frustrations.

It's great to be paid for protesting and everything but let me tell you the whole antifa reimbursement process is just terrible

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.

If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Nobody talks about this anymore (and who knows I could be wrong), but remember that each time you pay your cable bill, you're making a contribution to Fox News.

Kill your cable; you don't need it.

The political right is soaked to the bone in black ops, grift & Ponzi schemes of stupidity & corruption.

It’s not bad enough violent MAGA rubes engaged in an insurrection, savagely beat officers & engaged in a conspiracy against 🇺🇸, THEN OUTRAGEOUSLY GOT PARDONED, but the #J6 lies & grift continue…

The replies on this post are so unhinged. I’m reminded of MAGA, MAHA, conspiracy theorists and more. Social media really is a vessel into cult like thinking. No one is immune to propaganda, including the left.

More than a decade ago, I sat down with @marcmaron.bsky.social in his garage to tape something new called a podcast. This time, he came to me to record his last episode.

We talked about the power of conviction, decency in an age of division, and the true story of America.

James Michael Johnson, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is fanatically devoted to Donald Trump and expresses his adoration by endeavoring to give Trump everything he wants, despite never having heard a word Trump has written or said or any specific account of anything Trump has done.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 12h

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?

MIKE JOHNSON: I haven't seen the specifics of that and I don't know

in which a sitting justice on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court seems to imply he’s worried about whether there’ll be a presidential race in 2028 boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Speculating on Republican motivations, Dougherty said at his Chestnut Hill event that he expects the court to continue playing a major role in election law: “The theory is that we have to deal with a congressional election in 2026, and there’s preparation regarding gerrymandering for the next presidential election—should there be one.”
