This Fall on MPR (Monster Public Radio), tune in for the thrilling new game show, “Wait, Wait…Don’t Kill Me!” It’ll be a hauntingly good time!

Here’s how you know it’s a lie. If Democrats were REALLY trying to provide healthcare to “illegal aliens”, Republicans would be all over that like white on rice, in a glass of milk, on a paper plate in a snowstorm so that ICE could target anyone that signed up. #shutdown2025 #gophypocrisy

This is censorship and wrong! @jimmykimmel.com is one of the best things about ABC. He didn’t insult Kirk, he insulted Trump. This is some bullsh*t! Put Kimmel back on the air! #jimmykimmel #abc #abciswrong

A well-regulated militia attacked a school on 8/27. 2 students were killed and 17 people injured. If you would argue it was an individual, not a well-regulated militia then you already understand the difference between what the NRA promotes and what the Constitution says. #annunciationschool

There is nothing wrong with being white. No one should be shamed for being white. I think it is important to be proud of your heritage. However, if you are “proud to be white”, then either you don’t know your history or you’re on the wrong side of it.

It boggles my mind that some people still don’t celebrate Juneteenth. It’s an American holiday. If you celebrate July 4th, you should be celebrating Juneteenth.

The U.S. Army was ACTUALLY created June 3, 1784, to replace the disbanded Continental Army which existed before the U.S. was founded. The CA evolved into the Army the same way slave patrols evolved into police…but this date aligns with Trump’s birthday so… #nokings #45millionTrumpbirthdaypricetag

The Nottoway Plantation, the “largest remaining antebellum mansion in the South,” caught fire

"The loss of Nottoway is not just a loss for Iberville Parish, but for the entire state of Louisiana,” officials said

Trump keeps saying he wants to “make America great again,” but then repeals Biden-era policies that pulled us out of the mess he created his first term. Doesn’t he realize that approach will never get us back to the Obama era greatness?!?! It’s like he’s not even trying… #trump #obama #maga #america

Warnock: Don’t lecture to me about meritocracy while I witness you nominate the most unfit unqualified people we’ve ever seen.

You cannot lecture me about merit while nominating Pete Hegseth…

Excited for the Federal Bureau of Prisons to implement Exec. Order 14151: Ending Radical & Wasteful Government DEI Programs And Preferencing…Can’t WAIT to see how they remove the preferential selection of Black & brown people from the US prison system…

The Trump Administration’s approach to making America “great again” is just like the Dilbert cartoon: the people put in charge have no idea what they’re doing, people & resources needed are being cut and the person behind it all is racist.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

Why does a sitting US President, with legal immunity when exercising the 'core powers' of the presidency, need $1 Billion in pro bono legal services from top firms in the US?

Imagine CLARENCE THOMAS looking at your government and saying "Nope. That's too fascist for me."

Joyce White Vance @joycewhitevance.bsky.social · Apr 10

The decision in Abrego Garcia seems to be 9-0, calling his deportation illegal but directing the lower court to clarify what “effectuate” (as in, bring about his return) means. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
