@RepThomasMassie Good lord.

The President’s Big Beautiful Bill, the Iran War, and Republican spending bills will create a $2 trillion budget DEFICIT in 2026. Financing just the new debt costs more than all federal road & bridge projects, and we will be making those new interest payments each year, forever.

@Mollyploofkins Hottest country in the world!

@DecodingFoxNews @AntiToxicPeople Supporting the Free Palestine movement doesn’t mean you’re funded by a foreign government. It means you’re under 30.

Lawrence Jones noticed that an anti-ICE protesters was wearing a scarf that indicated he would also support the free Palestine movement. This was enough for Jones to declare that the entire group was funded by a foreign government. Who needs actual proof?

@alex_prompter @TomHoefling This is already happening. You can’t use AI at scale without a subscription. And the tokens run out increasingly fast.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it. Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying. Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence." Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter." Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter. They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created. One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility." Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies. That's the metered intelligence business model. And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

@Mollyploofkins If Trump declares that a year is now 4 months long, 37% of the country will just go along with it and say it makes sense, and they’re just glad he had the courage to change it.

Trump’s the only guy I know who gets three annual physicals a year.

@SundaeDivine But we’re the hottest country in the world…

Canada turning red is the geopolitical version of your golden retriever finally biting you.

@PaulNiland @ItWasACoup Also he’s trying to do this with no accountability or public trail of payouts. If anyone thinks he’s not going to use that $ for personal gain they are absolutely nuts.

That's a bullshit excuse, but since you are trying that line. There is personal benefit for Trump. The people being handed the cash are and will continue to be his minions. He's rewarding them for the attempted insurrection, on his behalf, & priming them to do it again, for him.

@ruthbenghiat @JenniferEValent I prefer the version where this doesn’t end in the generational destruction of the United States.

Trump is in power to make autocracies predominate. America must be wrecked so thoroughly it will take generations to recover: helping diseases to spread is part of this.

@atrupar He won the popular vote by 1.5 percent. And if the Dems were rigging a vote, don’t you think they would have won? Who rigs a vote to lose less badly?

Trump: "We won 86% of the counties in America. That's why the map is all red except for two blue stripes, and those were rigged by the way. They were rigged. We had rigged elections."

@ReichlinMelnick @USCIS I’m a citizen. And I’m questioning that. If you’re not questioning what happened to our country, you’re probably in a cult. Or living in a cave.

@USCIS In the meantime, hundreds of thousands of immigrants now have to worry about upending their lives to get a legal status that they are entitled to under our laws; and some may be questioning if the United States is still the country of freedom and opportunity they believed in.

🚨 🚨 🚨 NEW: A shocking @USCIS memo seems to declare that hundreds of thousands of immigrants living in this country and applying for green cards must instead apply for visas abroad; which could MASSIVELY disrupt lives. 🧵 on what we know, and what we don’t.

@unusual_whales When he says “independent” he means “independent of free will, and dependent on the will of Donald J Trump.”

Trump: Kevin Warsh will restore confidence in the Federal Reserve... the Fed will be independent.

@KyleClark Oh my god. Not only is she not remorseful, she’s right back to justifying her actions and blaming democrats. This is a disgrace.

NEW: Tina Peters speaks out in defense of Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D), says the Democratic censure of Polis for granting her clemency is further evidence of an election rigging coverup.

@covie_93 I could care less. But man. That’s a harsh slap in the face from a guy who has spent basically not a single weekend in DC

He attended tiffany's wedding, TIFFANY!

@AmeshiaCross @ItWasACoup I’m just glad that it will be out of the news cycle next week. What a stupid self own by holding it back like it was a nuclear code or something. We all know why the Dems lost anyway.

If by "funny" you mean self-defeating then absolutely.

@obsessafilma @SundaeDivine @atrupar I hear you. But the elections are run locally - if he “cancels” them maybe his own voters will stay home! LOL.

@obsessafilma @SundaeDivine @atrupar Can’t.

Comer on Trump's taxpayer-funded insurrectionist slush fund: "I think there is a need for it"

@Wishbone59 @RpsAgainstTrump Why do you think Trump wound up at a military academy? It wasn’t for good behavior.

@RpsAgainstTrump Trumplicans sure engage in a lot of name-calling. The Nuns when I went to grade school would be appalled.

Following Trump attacking James Talarico as “vegan,” Ken Paxton is now calling his Democratic opponent: “Tofu Talarico.” Is that all they’ve got? (Talarico isn’t vegan.)

@RpsAgainstTrump Talarico should bring a whopper on stage with him at his next rally. Casually take a bite in between lines and wink at the camera.

@HawleyMO She doesn’t look Somalian.

Great. Now let’s indict Tim Walz and Keith Ellison for their complicity

@Amy_Siskind Forcefully might be a bit of a reach…

Republican Party is imploding!
