@glmlewis @weskrantz I was thinking the same. I don't think any of my cats ever had a favorite toy for such a long time. Finn is a unique boi.
English

@weskrantz I think it is so interesting that pink rat and thongs have remained his favorite things since kittenhood.
Never have known a cat to have such attachments.

@stealthygeek @Whale_Guru @DebbieSVA Yeah, but it means the rest of us will face not just high food prices, but food shortages. I wouldn't be too complacent.

@Whale_Guru @DebbieSVA This is what they voted for.

@BulwarkOnline If that's what he thinks TSA does, this will be even worse thsn expected.

@flak_henry @GlobalIJournal That's why. He *is* Christian Nationalist butcase

@GlobalIJournal Why would he say Sunni?
Iran is predomenately Shia
Gulf states - SA, UAE and Qatar are mostly Sunni.
This guy is a nutbar.
If he wants go after all of Islam.. good luck.
You would have attack Indonesia, Pakistan, Sub-Saharin Africa + the middle east. About 2 B people worldwide

@Brrr98or @GlobalIJournal Oh, probably not. They're no longer diplomats, they're Trump-loving wealthy donors now.

@atrupar @anders_aslund Just pull the string on the back of the sycophant doll. It can only say one thing. An utterly ridiculous thing.

WELKER: Do you think it's appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of a Bronze Star, Purple Heart recipient who served in Vietnam?
BESSENT: Neither one of us can understand what has been done to the president and his family
WELKER: But is it appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of any American citizen?
BESSENT: Give what has been done to President Trump and his family, it is impossible for either of us to understand what he's been through
WELKER: So you don't think there's anything wrong with a post saying, 'Good. Robert Mueller's dead'?
BESSENT: We should have empathy for what's been done to the president and his family

@atrupar Forty-seven days of training that no longer even teaches the law or firearms safety. Less than half the traiing they got before last year. And they show how poorly trained they are in every video. What a liar.

@mattbramanti @SaraForTexLege You think a Texas legislator can reverse a federal law?
English

@SaraForTexLege if elected as a member of the Texas House of Representatives, what bill or resolution would you introduce to reverse this?

I actually can’t believe what I just watched.
The United States is at war.
We have a deranged man tweeting world ending global threats by the hour.
Gas is skyrocketing, groceries are more unaffordable than ever, people are being priced out of healthcare left and right, and if this doesn’t get reined in soon, we aren’t just facing a global recession, but an actual full blown depression.
And the LEADER of one of our chambers of Congress is meeting this moment by tweeting a rant about trans athletes participation in sports?!?!
To be clear, my position on this is that it should be handled on a case by case basis by the individual sports leagues at the local level.
Not only should this topic, which affects an infinitesimal portion of the population, have NEVER reached the highest levels of government, but to focus on it NOW?
I feel immeasurable pain for the people who did NOT vote for this, yet we all collectively have to deal with the consequences of what is apparently the end stage of the politics of unbridled hate and greed.
They have betrayed us.

Will today be the day Democrats stand up for Americans and when common sense prevails? Or will they continue to sacrifice fairness and equality at the altar of radical transgender ideology?
English

@Invisible_TSW @SaraForTexLege And before they targeted Jews, they put homosexuals in concentration camps. So, the pattern is very similar.
English

@SaraForTexLege The similarity to Nazi Germany is so striking. It was all about war and Jews, same as the MAGA USA is about war and trans.
English

@gsl1776 @GeoRebekah There was no such woman. Renee Goode was turning away from the agent when he shot her. "Tried to ram" him is a lie put out before the video showed she was turning her wheels away from him. He shot her through the side window, from where he was never in danger.
English

@GeoRebekah Was that the woman who tried to ram ICE agents with her car?
English

@GL0BALC1T1ZEN @GeoRebekah *He* wasn't stopping anyone. He simply went to help up a woman knocked to the ground. Have you really missed all the news about Alex Pretti's killing by ICE? You need to revisit your news sources.
English

@GeoRebekah Who shot her? Why was she stopping law-enforcement from doing their job? You cannot prevent law enforcement from detaining or apprehending people. This is not hard to understand.
English

@Acyn I have to say, that is the most impressive word salad I have ever seen from a Republican politician.
It still does not justify spending billions of dollars in a war that no one wants while Americans starve and have no healthcare.
English

@JanellMullen14 @benbwieder @katelinthicum They don't get free anything. But they do pay taxes. Billions of dollars in taxes.
English

@benbwieder @katelinthicum So why should American taxpayers take care of these people? We have sick Americans people living in poverty that are suffering because these blood sucking illegals are getting medical treatment and free everything!
English

Rodríguez had never set foot in Mexico and had never heard of this city ... The deportees wandered in the dark until they found a park, where Rodríguez spent the first of what would be many nights curled up on the ground, trying to sleep via @katelinthicum latimes.com/world-nation/s…

@Somali_Day_Care @benbwieder @katelinthicum Sending them to a country they have no connection with isn't even deportation. It's exile, and its only purpise is to be cruel.
English

@benbwieder @katelinthicum This is why we need to deport people quickly. There is no path to legal status without leaving the country. The longer we let them stay here, the more problems it causes.
English

@Mollyploofkins Wth is the Commander-in-Chief Trophy? Have I just never noticed it, or did he just now make it it up?
English

Approaching a dictator-level cult of personality here. Can't overemphasize how un-American this is.

"Sources close to the president have told Zeteo that on separate occasions over the past year, Trump has talked to longtime advisers about what it would take to officially make his birthday a national, federal holiday."
