72 yo male, lefty atheist. The kind of guy who calls a spade a long handled, open ended, earth inverting, horticultural implement. Radio God 3rd class, Twitter refugee, hiding in the bush near Goulburn NSW, no DMs unless I know you.

I wish people defended smeared victims of sexual violence the way they defend problematic male candidates for office

The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition.

Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.

🚨 oh look! Jack Smith is calling Marsha Blackburn’s bluff. Surely she should want him to testify publicly if she isn’t entirely full of 💩, right? Right??

BREAKING: The top federal prosecutor in Maryland has reportedly notified Pam Bondi that she sees no basis for Indicting Adam Schiff on mortgage fraud.

Who wants to bet that the prosecutor will be fired within days, and a new prosecutor will seek to indict Schiff regardless?

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

New York has her back.

Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

They’re distracting you with talk about healthcare premiums while a dictator runs wild...snatching Americans off the streets, looting hundreds of millions, and tearing down the White House. At this rate, healthcare will be the least of America’s worries.

Trump’s proposal to import Argentine beef to cut prices sparked backlash from U.S. farmers and Republicans like Sen. John Thune and Rep. Julie Fedorchak, who stress supporting American producers. Critics say the plan could harm U.S. ranchers despite Trump’s tariff defense

🚨🚨🚨ICE agents have criminal backgrounds including domestic violence and battery. Many have not had any background checks or fingerprints taken. Well, this is 100% consistent with what we are seeing on the streets of America.

Mike Johnson shamelessly lies: "We strengthened Medicaid. We improved healthcare access and we lowered premiums with our legislation."
