@physicsgeek @PolitiBunny The eternal problem with having the GOP on your side is that you have the GOP on your side. I forget who said it during the first Clinton term but the largest flaw in the GOP is that they couldn't organize a family picnic for a childless couple.

@PolitiBunny GOP: ::burns 100 million on a lost cause:: GOP: ::ignores VA:: Also GOP: Send us money. Me:🖕

Probably not a great idea texting Virginians and asking us for money today, GOP.

@ImSpartacus18 @Savsays That's the "I'm on everything but skates" blink.

@Savsays I’m not a body language expert, what does this mean?

UPDATE: Chris Ostroushko says that the backlash his family has been receiving for their actions last weekend has been “overwhelming” and “nonstop” He’s now “second guessing” living in the United States, because he’s unhappy with how negatively the public has reacted to him assaulting a woman on camera. He is in complete disbelief, stating that, "I've never had anything like this happen in my life". Chris and Deyanna have been going on a press tour continuing to assert that they are the real victims, despite millions watching the footage of them instigating everything. There is also a GoFundMe for them, where they are currently trying to raise $8k, stating that they’ve lost their jobs and, “are facing one of the most overwhelming and life-altering moments they have ever experienced”. The family has still taken zero accountability for any of the violence they committed and are in complete shock that they are facing consequences for their actions. Last week Chris also did an interview where he lied, stating that his family is “absolutely not violent" and that all he did was "stay back and watch" everything, despite being on camera shoving me multiple times.

@RobertMSterling I'd laugh in their damn face. These people would gladly see me and mine impoverished or in jail for any number of transgressions against the leftist faith. I'm not interested in hearing about how rough life is from people who do less work in a day than a ship's parrot.

I feel terrible for anyone who loses their job. I’m not trying to kick anyone while they’re down. But these USAID and NGO workers are the least sympathetic unemployed people I’ve ever seen. EVERY person in this story was making well into six figures: USAID employee: $175,000 USAID contractor: $127,000 USAID-funded NGO employee: $272,000(!) USAID advisor at the DOD: $195,000 USAID contractor: $200,000 There were 16,000 employees at USAID, and the New York Times was only able to interview one making less than $175k. Worldwide, there were an estimated 280,000 contractors. ALL of these people were getting paid from our tax dollars. Many were making 2-4x the wage of the average American taxpayer ($65-70k per year). Yes, USAID did some good work, especially during the Cold War. And, yes, many of the agency’s employees were hard-working Americans, with good intentions and love for their country. Again, we should take no joy in seeing thousands of people lose their livelihoods—this is not a case of justifiable schadenfreude. But it’s not sustainable for an agency with so little accountability to manage tens of billions of dollars per year, enriching tens of thousands of NGO-industrial-complex managers living in the DC/Maryland/Virginia metroplex in the process. Even the NYT acknowledges that “there was bloat and waste in the agency and a need for reform. Much of the $35 billion [USAID] managed in 2024 went to Washington-based contractors, not directly to people in need overseas. The success of many projects was hard to measure.” Every last dollar that went to these highly paid employees was funded by an American taxpayer, the vast majority of whom make far less money than the people laid off from USAID. We have the right to demand accountability, and we have the right to expect that these funds will be spent in our interest, not theirs. USAID and its thousands of employees, contractors, and NGO beneficiaries ignored that principle, and they eventually paid the price with their careers. I wish them all nothing but the best, but I won’t mourn that they will no longer be making $200k per year on the backs of American workers.

@DailyCaller Is there really no one else they could find in Washington to represent their district besides this shovel faced buffoon?

REP JAYAPAL: "Cuba has a remarkable public health system."

@RazorFist If you found the owner of that car and took their phone away for a month in 30 days they couldn't give you an opinion on what to have for lunch.

He broke them. I mean, snapped them in half. If we didn't have so many agent provocateurs on "our side", the next 8 elections would be done and dusted. Do please spare a moment to stew in contempt for the Sperg-Right.

@RMXnews "Abdelilah Habbouly" Ah, yes. No doubt a member of the good old Irish clan Habbouly. 🤡🌎

🇮🇪The suspect who elbowed a young Irishwoman in Cork, rendering her unconscious and breaking her eye socket, has been arrested. The man is named as Abdelilah Habbouly. He has been charged with the crime but has already been released on bail

@RobProvince @ChrisMurphyCT "It was sarcasm." - guy who agrees with the Iranian government that civilians shouldn't own firearms to defend themselves.

@ChrisMurphyCT So you believe the Propaganda minister of Iran and were making a funny?

Ok Twitter, I can’t believe I need to clarify this but obviously Trump’s bungled mismanagement of this war is not “awesome”. As I have said a million times here, it’s a disaster and he should end the war immediately. My tweet was something called “sarcasm”.

@Rothmus Best of all the statue only cost 785,435,981,087,732.00 Zimbabwe dollars.

It’s perfect 👌

@Timodc @BillKristol "@BillKristol is not afraid of the "i" word." The only "i" word that need concern you two jack offs at the Bulwark is "irrelevant". Which is what both of you two queens are.

"The fact is that Trump is far more reckless, unstable, and detached from reality than Richard Nixon was in 1974." - @BillKristol is not afraid of the "i" word. thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-not…

@theblaze This guy is so deep in the closet he's finding Christmas presents.

Democrat Senator Cory Booker is screaming at a Michigan Democrat women's event: "THERE IS A STORM IN OUR NATION! THERE IS DARKNESS AND WIND! WE NEED FOOT SOLDIERS OF DEMOCRACY! WILL YOU STAND FOR DEMOCRACY?"

@GovernorVA @ltgovhashmi @JCarrollFoy @DelCiaPrice85 "We have officially guaranteed the right of every woman in Virginia to access contraception and birth control." "Stay tuned for my next announcement on why we need infinite 3rd worlders in your state because our birth rates are falling." 🤡🌎

🚨We have officially guaranteed the right of every woman in Virginia to access contraception and birth control. Thank you @ltgovhashmi, @JCarrollFoy, and @DelCiaPrice85 for long championing this effort — and for all you’ve done to protect reproductive healthcare.

@KurtSchlichter When left wing groups weren't busy bombing stuff on the ground in the 70s, their fellow travelers were in the air demanding to be flown to Cuba while the PLO was turning airline hijackings into an industry.

@KurtSchlichter I'm still waiting on someone to identify a 21st century TSA security rule that isn't a direct response to Muslim terrorists. And if you want to go back further than that? Yeah...it's still Muslims and leftists.

America’s left is facing a critical shortage of right wing terrorists so they have to invent them

@Rothmus They refused to gas Ladas in Canada? Both cars?

@TheAtlantic @GrahamDavidA My favorite part of your magazine is how utterly worthless you and the rest of your co-workers are. You guys are the inflatable shovel of journalism.

“The Sorrow and the Pity,” a four-hour documentary from 1969 about Nazi-occupied France, chronicles the way that many ordinary citizens simply lived their lives as if nothing had changed—and the film is more relevant than ever, @GrahamDavidA argues. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/04/…

@redsteeze So the guy most known for his maniacal insistence that we should abolish the 2A* is over with a group of communists insisting America is being taken over by a totalitarian tyrant. (*Bear in mind the RKBA is also plainly stated in the Connecticut State Constitution)

I'm not doing the hatch act thing or anything but a sitting United States governor going over to Barcelona Spain to then badmouth his country and the president of his country to a group of European Marxist elites is kind of bonkers.

Why is the governor of Minnesota speaking in Barcelona, Spain?

@awstar11 @neoavatara Macron chose sides already so pardon me if I don't cry for France.

@neoavatara Are you claiming that peacekeepers in Lebanon are in any way shape or form effective or “doing something“? Well, I appreciate their sacrifice and more in their loss, this only emphasizes the utter futility of the UN and the French.

@dwjorgeb @nexta_tv Spend a few minutes Googling "power lines in India". The fact this doesn't happen about every 15 seconds over there is a miracle.

@nexta_tv The question is: why are there live uninsulated cables passing above someone's back yard

😰 Watch this: tried to chase away a monkey — burned alive In India, a man used a long metal pole to scare the animal off his property but hit a power line. He was electrocuted and did not survive.

@PolitlcsUK "Strait of Hormuz Maritime Freedom of Navigation Initiative" Glad they finally picked the name for their virtual meeting. Good job, Europe. Juice boxes all around for you guys. Meanwhile the strait is open again this morning and oil has dropped $10 a barrel already.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer is flying to Paris this morning to co-host a virtual meeting of the "Strait of Hormuz Maritime Freedom of Navigation Initiative"

@RepMikeLawler "The situation in Haiti is deteriorating, not improving" And that's completely due to the people there, dumbass. So why do we want them HERE? They could build a better man than you out of a f*cking banana.

Proud to join a bipartisan effort alongside Rep. Gillen to pushing for an extension for Haitian Temporary Protected Status. We were joined by Reps. Ayanna Pressley, Whip Katherine Clark, and a bipartisan group of our colleagues who are moving forward with a discharge petition to force a vote on extending Haitian TPS. The situation in Haiti is deteriorating, not improving, and the families here in our communities like Spring Valley and beyond deserve certainty, not chaos.
