Some of those people are currently on the staff of elected Republicans, in fact. They’re part of the present of the GOP.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

Wait one damn minute‼️

I know Lisa Murkowski isn’t up on her high horse talking about the lack of trust between Republicans and Democrats after she cast the deciding “Yes” on the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill and slipped in backroom deals for Alaska.

She’s part of the problem & needs to own it!

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

You know MAGA is an incestuous cult because the entire world, especially Palestinians, realizes Israel just played Trump and there's no "peace in the Middle East."

However, Trump gets his ego stroked, and MAGA Reeks get to praise their King for a day.

What Ceasefire? Israel Is Back to Its Genocidal Ways as Trump Demands a Peace Prize.

Trump's alleged historic peace deal is about as real as a diploma from Trump University, yet that hasn't stopped Republicans from kissing up to their King and ignoring a genocide.

“Epithets like “f----t,” “retarded” and “n--ga” appeared more than 251 times combined”

If you ever had any doubt that the youth wing of the GOP is fully radicalized and proudly racist these days:

Just calling them drug traffickers and blowing them up means he can declare anyone a criminal and just have them killed.

Remember when he was admiring president Duarte’s murdering of thousands of suspected drug traffickers in the Philippines? He’s trying to do the same thing here.

The answer to "is Benjamin Netanyahu a war criminal?" is "yes, but he's also a genocider," and this should not be controversial.

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then undercut US farmers by selling their soybeans to China, who used be our biggest customer for soybeans before Trump drove them away with his tariffs.

This is Trump 3D chess in action.

Arrogance, Ignorance and Idiocy.
