@_InfoGram_ @OldNorwegian52 Fuckin’ wise ass.

🚨This is utter disgraceful ⚡️ 🇺🇸Nehls to Pope: "Hey man, Lead your church, not politics. Trump is our president, not you." This is the same guy who Was fired from police for 19–20 violations in one year (improper arrests, destroying evidence, insubordination).

@MysterySolvents @smc429 Yeast infection of that neckgina.

What is the real reason Trump’s voice is hoarse?

@Scaramucci @mccaffreyr3 But, it’s 34%. Still. One-third of this country is lost.

Trump’s approval rating is 34%. Let that number sink in. Lower than Jimmy Carter at his lowest point. As low as Herbert Hoover in the middle of the Great Depression before he got ousted. He campaigned on ending wars in the Middle East. We have a new war in the Middle East. He campaigned on lowering prices. Prices are up across the board: energy, tariffs, everything. And the same people who were with him when he said he wouldn’t do it are still with him now that he’s doing it. Here’s the real question: Does he care about any of this? I would submit to everybody — he does not. He’s entered the nihilistic stage of his political career. The polls don’t matter. The people don’t matter. The consequences don’t matter. That is the most dangerous version of this man. And that’s exactly where we are.

@TheRealThelmaJ1 I called time and temperature more than necessary.

Oh, and we used these things to call the movie theater to listen to a voice tell us what movies were playing

Believe it or not kids there used to be a deal where Iran promised not to seek nuclear weapons and opened their country up to inspections. Donald Trump ended it in 2018 because he was jealous of Barrack Obama.

@LeahRemini @Mamabenergy2 Awesome! Congratulations! 🍾

I graduated!!! I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a concentration in Psychology, summa cum laude! Five years ago, I started this journey with an eighth-grade education, and even that was from a Scientology school, where critical thinking was discouraged and the quality of instruction was subpar, to say the least. I did not get here alone. Thank you to @NYUSPS and @DeanKamath. Thank you to everyone who supported me, encouraged me, and believed in me, especially on the days I was not sure I could do this. And there were plenty of those days. To my therapist, who told me not to give up when I was told I likely would not be accepted into a prestigious program. To my tutor, without whom I likely would have given up at the harder points along the way. To all those here who have sent me loving messages on social media. And to everyone else who has cheered me on in person through the ups and the downs of it, it means more than I can put into words. It got me over this finish line of being a student again and graduating. That goal once seemed impossible. To those who have asked me, “Why this? Why now?” I pursued higher education to reclaim a piece of myself. When you come out of a high-control group like Scientology, or even a high-control family, there are parts of you that were never allowed to fully develop. Those parts include your curiosity and your ability and right to question. Education was discouraged because knowledge creates confidence in your ability to trust your own mind and navigate the world. That leads to true independence, and that would never be allowed. I wanted that back. But more than that, I needed to understand. I needed to understand how my mother could have us join Scientology when I was just eight years old, and how my family and I could be part of something like this and stay in it for so long. I needed to understand how these systems work, how they influence people, and how they take hold. Without education, access to real information, and support, people can fall into systems that work against their best interests. Some assume that because they are educated, even highly educated, they would never fall for something like this. But it turns out that is not necessarily true. What many of us are impacted by, but never quite understand, is how high-control groups operate. Many still do not understand how misinformation spreads, and how tribalism and radicalization shape what we think, what we believe, and who and what we trust. Without that awareness, none of us are immune. Today, we are seeing how these forces can influence good people and distort reality. History has shown us that this is not new; it just comes in a different form now. Social media connects us in ways we never imagined, but it also creates echo chambers that reinforce beliefs and justify behavior without question. Real critical thinking is hard when we are fed so much by algorithms designed to appeal to us. In learning and achieving this milestone in my own life, it has helped me take a good, hard look at my own beliefs and ideologies. This journey was about healing for me, but also about figuring out how to help others in whatever way I can in the future. So what is in my future? I am considering continuing my education and possibly pursuing a master’s degree, with the goal of contributing to advocacy and policies that protect people, not systems. For now, I am taking this moment in. I am proud of myself. And I am grateful. Thank you for being on this journey with me.

@DougWahl1 Maybe it just because of that stupid hat.

DO YOU FEEL SORRY FOR HIM? Today the California Supreme Court permanently disbarred John Eastman. You may remember him. He was the brains behind Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Your Thoughts?

Today is TAX DAY and this video of a voter calling out Trump for being a TAX CHEAT and an ELECTION CHEAT is going viral: “He cheated on the golf course…
He cheated on his taxes…
He cheated on his wives…
He cheated on democracy…” But then came the mic drop 👇 “…and now he’s asking every Republican in this room to be one of his prostitutes. 
Not sexually - philosophically.
Do what he says, and you won’t be primaried. 
Defy him - and you’ll be punished. 
It’s that diabolical. 
It’s that simple.” Every American needs to hear this!! #TrumpRiggedYourTaxReturn

@RepJoeNeguse @BudGothmog44 Go get ‘em, Joe!

In case you’re wondering what House Republicans are doing this week after a 2-week recess…. Passing a resolution honoring themselves for passing a bill last year. Seriously.

@Housebots @goodedonnae Could have been locusts.

@RpsAgainstTrump @goodedonnae Fucking Repuke cowards

NEW: The U.S. Senate voted 52–47 to block a resolution that would have required congressional approval for new strikes on Iran. The vote broke along party lines, with Republican Rand Paul voting yes and Democrat John Fetterman voting no

@TylerRatcliff17 @justice4all01 Why not arrest his black bully buddy?

This little shit is gonna run into the wrong person one day, and I’d love to be there for it. FAFO

@ArtCandee No bigger idiot in Congress.

Even Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville thinks the Republicans are “embarrassing” because they can’t pass bills even with the majority in Congress. Thanks for acknowledging you folks can’t govern, Tubesocks!

@AnnieForTruth @MalcolmNance The same 31% that will always support President Brain Dead.

It’s unbelievable that the MyCrappyPillow guy has 31%! 🙄

@covie_93 @Tony323g Sure. Orange Scum took the money. Success for him.

Is the board of peace no longer a thing???

@TheCinesthetic @StephanieRade18

Name a movie you've seen more than 7 times with just a GIF

@DrLoupis__ @tommyboy0690 Pudgy bastard

What would make a person change his name 3 times?

@torontobaddy @GuyFieri @FoodNetwork I never watch ANY show he is on.

Agreed. Fuck @GuyFieri and fuck the @FoodNetwork if they keep him.

@20th_Centurygal AC/DC

Who’s the loudest band you’ve ever seen live?

@ViralReelAddict @pappybest Not sure why this would surprise anyone.

🚨 Wait… can we talk about this for a second?! There are viral claims circulating online about Stephen Miller allegedly being tied to $6.3 BILLION in missing U.S. funds… and that the money was supposedly moved into offshore accounts 💸 Yes you read that right: 6.3 billion dollars. If even part of this is true, we’re talking about a political and financial bombshell of massive scale. The internet is absolutely exploding over this story right now… 👀

@stormradioguy @patgagnon_75 Peace to you and the family.

My son Jesse passed away yesterday in Ottawa, only 45, probably diabetic complications. Outliving your children is a hard thing to accept.
