“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” - Theodore Roosevelt

Someone should pull Ol’ Roy aside and explain to him that dismissing monarchy by subtly pushing Christian Nationalism is not nearly the flex he thinks it is.

The WH steals people’s property constantly and never asks permission. Another example of Trump acting like a king.

They’re also posting their utter ignorance.

Reassuring to know that spelling ignorance is not just the province of the White House in the Trump administration.

Obama wears a tan suit to a press conference and Republicans trip over each getting behind a microphone to shriek about how ‘unpresidential’ it was.

Trump posts AI video of himself literally dumping shit on Americans (and an American flag) and it’s crickets from Republicans.

Who hates America?

Donald Trump on government shutdown:

“You have to get everybody in a room. You have to be a leader. I actually think the president would be blamed. If there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president.”

Oh my fucking God. It’s shit like this that makes the rest of the country think all of us Texans are ignorant, hateful rednecks.

We are not.

Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

In John 6:15, Jesus miraculously feeds 5,000 people and the crowd's so impressed they try to seize Jesus and make him their "king," by force.

But Jesus "withdrew again to a mountain by himself" to avoid their attempt, bc he was not about earthly power.

Jesus = "No Kings."

Surely The Tennessee Holler cannot be suggesting that Grok may be somehow compromised.

Elon would never stand for that.

Right?

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 22h

Per BBC VERIFY - Elon’s Grok just lied and said the crowd size from yesterday was a fake image

It then corrected itself, but not until many on the right seized on it and amplified it

BASH: Santos pleaded guilty to defrauding constituents of hundreds of thousands of dollars, money he will no longer be required to pay back. Is the commutation acceptable to you?

BRITT: What I appreciate is President Trump's commitment to the American people. We saw disarray under President Biden.

To everyone claiming there were no arrests at the "No Kings" rallies yesterday, this is simply not true.

No, a Trump supporter was arrested for trying to use a gun against people exercising their First Amendment rights. He was arrested and his tacky Jeep with Trump flags was towed.

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire??

Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene breaks with the GOP on Obamacare, calling to avoid premium hikes

Greene said she's "not a fan" of Obamacare but complained that her "own adult children’s insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE" if Congress ignores the issue.
