With Trump musing lately that he might not be going to heaven, it makes me wonder WTF is in those Epstein files!

As long as they didn't say anything bad about Mohammed, I mean Charlie Kirk

At least he got the name of the protest right! I think that is what they were saying before the American Revolution.

They say crime is out of control and they have to arrest all the dangerous illegal immigrant criminals and they still have the time and personnel to do this.

Has Lawler had any comment on it yet?

soundgood2 @soundgood2.bsky.social · 18h

Stefanik was smart enough to disavow them. Mike is really dumb.

Santiago Mayer @santiagomayer.com · 18h

JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat.

But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.

I'm sure it will be entertaining. She is a talented writer.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

Don't try to come to this country where we celebrate the First Amendment and Freedom of Speech and think you can say anything you want!

Why does he think he was being protected by ICE agents at his rally?

soundgood2 @soundgood2.bsky.social · 23h

He used to struggle to get any men, least of all young men like he is courting now, to come and be in his audience.

But still not enough to get Republicans in Congress to do anything to him.

SCOOP: After two public court hearings, a Florida judge has issued a restraining order against Rep. Cory Mills for "protection against dating violence." Mills's ex-girlfriend filed for the injunction in August, alleging sextortion & violent threats. I'll post more clips from the decision below.

Yeah, it’s propaganda so the rules of journalism don’t apply

NEW:

A dramatic voiceover video the White House and Donald Trump shared last week claiming to show "chaos" in Chicago is littered with outdated footage from Florida, Texas, South Carolina, Nebraska, California and Arizona, an AFP investigation found.

"Together, the messages reveal a culture where racist, antisemitic and violent rhetoric circulate freely — and where the Trump-era loosening of political norms has made such talk feel less taboo among those positioning themselves as the party’s next leaders." all hardline Trump supporters...

Adam Cohen (My Personal Views Only) @axidentaliberal.bsky.social · 1d

You can blame a lot of what's happening today on Alex Jones

Long before Sandy Hook, he peddled the vile conspiracy theory that "9/11 was an inside job"

Still, in 2016 Trump appeared on his show and praised his "amazing reputation"

Now those peddling conspiracy theories are running the government

What made these poor entitled white boys so racist? We need to listen to them! Is it because they are being replaced by all those terrible liberals?

CJ Ciaramella @cjciaramella.bsky.social · 1d

damn, the GOP's so racist these days that they're gonna make me wear out my one good shitpost

A slight variation on the classic Onion headline: "Why Do All These White Nationalists Keep Infiltrating My Political Movement?"

I'm sure Bari Weiss will be all over this!

Justice Kavanaugh thinks this is just a slight inconvenience because it would NEVER happen to HIM.

The New Republic @newrepublic.com · 1d

ICE agents surrounded, seized, and zip-tied a U.S. citizen who had just finished working a double shift because she didn’t “look” American to them.

She had her U.S. passport on her when she was detained, yet she was interrogated for an hour. trib.al/hDC7Vgv
