If the embarrassment alone doesn't kill us, he eventually will, in some other horrendous way.

Trump said that the United States and Italy have been allies since the days of ancient Rome. The reaction on the translator's face is priceless. She is looking at him like he's a motherfucking idiot.

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

In other words, it's fucking racist.

‘Remigrate’ is a term straight out of Europe’s ‘Great Replacement’ movement — used by far-right extremists to push mass deportation of nonwhite immigrants.

It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

Well, well, well. JD just made up some more bullshit.

We should be able to fire people that we pay with our tax dollars, when they lie to us.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid," JD Vance. We checked.

By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of eight of the 11 participants in the abhorrent leaked texts from young Republicans that Politico covered on Tuesday: They appear to range from 24 to 35.

Normally my default reaction to a live-action movie of a classic cartoon TV series would be largely pessimistic, but I actually think Jim Carrey would CRUSH IT as George Jetson in a live-action Jetsons movie. www.ign.com/articles/jim...

Jim Carrey in Talks to Star in The Jetsons Live-Action Movie - IGN

Jim Carrey is reportedly in talks to star in Warner Bros.’ live-action movie adaptation of the 1960s animated TV series The Jetsons, which Jurassic World’s Colin Trevorrow is in line to direct.

There’s more of us than there are of them. They can’t control us. They can’t stop us from voicing our dissent. Thugs and thuggery is not a winning future, even if they think so. See you at No Kings.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi has had enough of the right wing-lies. As Dems continue to show up to try and make a deal to reopen the government, Pelosi was confronted by a reporter asking about January 6th. Pelosi snapped back telling her to "shut up".

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

A state senator's racist text. A thirty-something GOP flack saying "I love Hitler." To JD Vance, they're all just "a kid telling a stupid joke."

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid"

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

The New Republic @newrepublic.com · 1d

CBS aired a segment by Olivia Reingold—a reporter for the Weiss-founded Free Press—in which NYPD officers are worried about Mamdani, with some “considering retiring.” The evidence? Four unnamed officers quoted out of ~33,000.

The story is thinly sourced, fearmongering, tabloid drek. trib.al/hfqsrL0

Half the kids in my class had dirt under their nails before breakfast.

Every time the GOP lies about Saturday’s peaceful protests, our massive No Kings Day events get even bigger.

We thank Republicans for their attention to this matter!

Aaron Rupar on Bluesky: “Trump on No Kings: "They have their day coming up.
I hear very few people are gonna be there, by the way. But they have their day coming up and they want to have their day in the sun."”
