Boomers are doing their level best today to prove to Millennials and Gen-Z how woefully out of touch they are. The latest is about how kids these days are eating $30 lunches every day. Now I don’t know if it’s true that kids are spending $30/day for lunch (I’m doubtful), but I will note that $30 is basically lunch for 2 at a fast food joint. It’s not a steak at Outback. The problem isn’t that kids are spending too much on lunch, it’s that lunch costs too much. Everything costs too much. Eating PB&J everyday doesn’t help with the cost of gas, healthcare, or paying back student loans. There is no empathy.

@7AntiNucci @stelzner_n1150 We agree on the necessity of using Dukes...if youust have chips, buy a family size bag on sale and try not to eat the whole thing in one sitting.

A regular-sized sandwich, a bag of chips, and a soda cost you like $17 now at Jersey Mike's, then they ask for a tip on their tablet, making the total close to $20. Wealthy people don't care because they don't need to budget, but for middle-class Americans, this is a big problem.

Trump endorses Ken Paxton! Must have seen late polling showing Paxton will beat John Cornyn. SO: (1) Great News for Talarico (D); (2) Bad News for GOP money reserves; (3) If ever there’s a year when a D can win statewide in TX, it’s 2026.

I'm starting to become convinced that Trump's monomaniacal obsession with the ballroom/bunker is because he plans on barricading himself inside the bunker when his term is up.
Jake Sherman@JakeSherman

NEWS ON THE BALLROOM -- The $1B for USSS is one of the most important things Republicans are dealing with right now. It is the single provision that is standing in the way of ICE/CBP funding. Trump wants this on his desk by June 1. But that's all been complicated by the $1B for security, including Trump's ballroom. Forget the House floor right now. it's irrelevant. all the action will begin when the Senate moves the reconciliation bill. As @LauraEWeiss16 scooped last night, Senate is not only changing the $1B language, but they are also considering lowering the number from $1B. Senate is engaged in a lot of Trump management right now. They know Trump wants the money but they also know that, in its current form, they cant pass it. The parliamentarian is a side show, for the most part. Because if the language ends up on the floor, it could easily come out during vote-a-rama. And here's the real kicker: The House is even trickier. Absences and opposition will kill this provision in the House. Johnson has been warned by rank and file. This won't fly. punchbowl.news/archive/51926-…

Bill Cassidy voted his conscience on impeachment, then spent five years sucking up to Donald Trump. He was the deciding vote for the most unqualified HHS Secretary in my lifetime, a guy laying ruin to the public health system, all to get Trump's favor. Message to my fellow Republicans: you're not going to get his favor. It doesn't work that way.

@stelzner_n1150 Buy a pack of hoagie rolls, grab some cold cuts, use Dukes mayo exclusively, a little lettuce, a tomato, and skip the chips bc carrot slices are better. Family of four fed for a quarter of the cost...or more. Oh...and review all of your wasteful subscriptions while you're at it

@RefinedPopulist Stop eating fast food trash. Focus on whole foods...or don't. Keep eating the stuff you're eating. If too many switch to healthy foods, it'll cost more for the rest of us.

@wcdispatch He didn't "restore DC". DC leaders have wanted to restore the fountains, but guess who said no. Congress. Now, because it's 250 and #trump is desperate for ratings points, he released the money.

No matter how much they hate him, President Trump’s legacy will be shown through restoring DC. These fountains haven’t been operational since I was a kid.

@EvelynMaeWrites @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood A small comment regarding the madness one must be enveloped by to compare a clear cognitive decline (Biden) to that of our current POTUS who speaks with reporters daily has triggered your ire? BHO tried to fix it w/far more $. $300 million was one plan later. We shall see

@Rick_HM @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood Refresh your memory. Biden BS made it into your post. You desperately ignore Trump’s mental instability. Trump is a failure. His “pool guys” aren’t pool guys. The no-bid contract to his friend is overdue, over budget. You’ll keep defending his daily fails at all costs.
Rick_HM@Rick_HM

@JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood What are you doing? Trying to explain stuff to people who are so desperate for Trump to fail? These are the same folks who dare compare the cognitive ability of JBiden to Trump...waste of time. Keep up the good fight, but only if it brings you satisfaction!

@EvelynMaeWrites @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood Strange. I didn't come to this post to degrade Biden. Zero value in that for me. I simply was sharing my belief that the guy was wasting his time trying to explain sealant vs paint to those who seek Trump's failure. Diminish Biden...what for? lol

@Rick_HM @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood Hahaha. Biden made fun of your stupid Brandon comments. Trump whines about criticism, questions he doesn’t like, name calls, makes up stories contradicts himself, He’s always the victim, cries about it on world stages to laughs. MAGA cries for him, “but Biden,”like you.

@EvelynMaeWrites @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood Biden / Biden's team put a "lid" on the day multiple times during his time as POTUS. Reporters weren't sure what it meant the 1st time DJT answers Qs from reporters daily, sometimes several times & has more engagements with the press already this year than JBiden had in 4 years

@Rick_HM @JJeffrey100 @DavidShares @joeflood Hahaha. Trump brags about having taken multiple cognitive assessments for dementia. And says he got 100%, which isn’t how they’re scored. He confuses these as intelligent tests, proving how far he’s gone. Along with his sundowning rants, sometimes 20, 30, 50 a night. Idiot.

@jeffcharlesjr Maybe he was referring to the "story you were taught in school"...which is accurate. My teachers did not share the activism and reality of the situation regarding Rosa Parks. It wasn't until later that this reality came to me through deeper study. Legacy uninjured by truth.

Jeff Charles, Asker of Questions🏴
Seriously though... the only reason people like Matt Walsh think this is some groundbreaking revelation is because they don't read.
Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApes

We have literally been lied to about everything Matt Walsh “The Rosa Parks story you were taught in school was fake too. This was not just some woman on her way home from work. Civil rights leaders thought Parks would make a sympathetic face for their lawsuit and then told her, a longtime NAACP volunteer, to create a situation where she'd be arrested. This gets sold to the public as totally organic when actually it's playacting to create ideal conditions for a court case or scandal. The iconic photo of Parks on the bus was staged months after the incident as part of a press campaign. (The photo is shown in the clip) The white man, sitting behind her in the bus photo was a journalist, which you probably didn't know.” Let’s fact check this. It’s 100% true What Actually Happened on December 1, 1955 Rosa Parks was a longtime NAACP volunteer and secretary of the Montgomery chapter. She had been deeply involved in civil rights activism for years (including work on cases like the Recy Taylor rape and voter registration efforts). She was not just a random tired seamstress on her way home from work who spontaneously refused to move. Local civil rights leaders had been looking for a strong test case to challenge bus segregation. They even had people cast for the role before Rosa Parks. Earlier attempts include 15 year old Claudette Colvin were passed over because leaders felt Rosa Parks, a mature, respected, married woman with a spotless reputation, would be a more sympathetic plaintiff in court and to the public The Iconic Photo was 100% staged The famous photo was taken on December 21, 1956, this is over a year after her arrest and on the first day the buses were integrated after the Supreme Court ruling It was deliberately staged by journalists, Look Magazine and UPI, for a press campaign to dramatize the victory The white man sitting behind her is Nicholas Chriss, a UPI reporter, not a random angry passenger or segregationist

"As Trump turns 80 next month, his recent behavior should prompt even more questions than usual about his stability, judgment, and mental sharpness." - @JonLemire Long overdue. Something is very wrong with Trump.
Jonathan Lemire@JonLemire

NEW: The Newest Oldest President Donald Trump has not faced the same scrutiny for his age as Joe Biden did. For now. But as Trump is poised to turn 80 next month, questions about his health and increasingly erratic behavior are growing theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…
