@elonmusk Republicans think it's no big deal to kill people, if it means they get to keep their guns.

The left is the party of violence

@actblue Why aren't you on Bluesky? Every time I contribute, you put thru charge without asking for a card number. I use virtual numbers, only good for a day, so when you do that it always bounces. It's getting to be a real pain to contribute!

Real story: Judge was about to throw out the case bc Trump controls both parties. Before it’s dismissed, Trump tells both parties to reach a “settlement.” Settlement shields Trump from any future audit and creates a secret slush fund that can dole out money to anyone with no transparency. Mind-boggling corruption. @SpeakerJohnson - you may not know it, but your job is to conduct oversight of the admin. You can’t run away from this one.

Yesterday, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum swore under oath that Trump's Arch was "not even a proposal," claiming it was just a "discussion." Today, @RepHuffman was standing in front of the industrial drilling rig starting work on it.

This is extraordinary. I've been a professional investor for decades and I haven't made this many trades in my career. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

I looked back to see if you criticized Mitch McConnell for jamming through the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett eight days before a presidential election, much less held back a seat for almost a year, denying Merrick Garland even a hearing. I can’t find your comments.

During one operation, Ukrainian forces quickly captured a column of Russian armored vehicles. But instead of simply blowing up the tanks and IFVs, Ukrainian crews did something the Russians never expected. They climbed into the captured Russian tanks, switched on the Russian radios, and calmly drove deep into enemy territory pretending to be Russian forces. The Russian convoy had been moving in tight formation. Ukrainian soldiers rapidly neutralized the crews, seized the vehicles, and within minutes were driving along the very road the occupiers had just used. They spoke Russian over the radio, used Russian call signs, and even copied the style of Russian communications. At checkpoints, Russian troops simply waved them through, believing they were friendly units returning from a mission. The Ukrainians then drove straight onto the grounds of a Russian brigade headquarters. Once the tanks were inside the base, Ukrainian crews suddenly turned their turrets and opened fire. Headquarters buildings, ammunition depots, and vehicle parks instantly descended into chaos. Russian troops ran between tents in panic, shouting and firing in every direction — but it was already too late. They had allowed a “Trojan horse” directly into their own base. The entire operation lasted only minutes. Ukrainian forces captured the headquarters, took Russian officers prisoner, destroyed key military targets, and withdrew without losses.

My 2-day computer shipment is now expected to be 5 days.

@gtconway3d In the $10 Billion suit, Trump is both plaintiff and defendant. As plaintiff he gets $10 Billion, and as defendant, we all pay.

The corruption is beyond anything we have ever seen.

I asked Director Patel to pass on my thanks for FBI's work stopping a crook who scammed Medicare out of $205 million. He obliged. Only problem? Trump pardoned that scammer. So which is it? Should the FBI keep uncovering fraud, or should Trump keep pardoning these crooks?

Proof positive that Trump’s ass kissers must always give the same absurd answers that imbecile Trump would give. Bergum: “When the sun goes down, solar panels produce zero electricity. The whole machine doesn’t work.” Rep Huffman: “I request to enter into the record this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is not aware of. It’s a battery.

Donald Trump’s spiritual advisor Robert Morris has been released from prison after serving just six months for raping a 12 year old girl. Yes, the judge was a Republican that donated to Trump’s campaign.

Breaking NYT: The Trump Justice Department is dropping Biden-era charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani. The reversal came after Adani hired a new legal team led by one of Trump's personal lawyers. That lawyer went to DOJ and made a proposal: If prosecutors dropped the charges, Adani would be willing to invest $10 billion in the American economy and create 15,000 jobs. nytimes.com/2026/05/14/nyr…

No officer in the U.S. military takes an oath to serve the Commander-in-Chief.

This is crazy. 60 days for sexual abuse of a 6-9 year old. Pedophilia has basically become legal of you are a Republican.

"We forced Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and strategic bombers. We promised to protect Ukraine from Russia. We made Ukraine vulnerable. So yes, this is our war.." - Bill Clinton 🫡

@rshereme I suppose they'll put the golden Trump statue into the Baal-room when it's built.

This is a fair question to all evangelical Christians, including myself: “Dear conservative evangelicals; You gave him a pass on “grab them by the pussy.” You don’t mind that he’s an Olympics-class liar. A thirty-four count fraud conviction didn’t faze you. Not even an adjudication of rape bothered you. He’s mentioned in the Epstein documents literally 38,000 times. You don’t find it odd that he’s personally blocking the release of three million of those files. He’s the most corrupt politician in American history. He’s broken all ten of the Ten Commandments. Including taking the lives of 153 little girls whose only crime was being in school. And then he lied about it. He doesn’t go to your church. He doesn’t go to ANY church. He cheats at golf. He cheats at business. He cheats contractors. He cheats on his wives. He cheats in elections. He’s profane. Crooked. Disrespectful. Selfish. Driven by greed. By ego. By revenge. Yet here you are worshipping a golden idol in his likeness. So what is it about YOU that makes you a Christian? Bruce Lindner”

Lost in the news this week: the real story behind Palm Beach International becoming Trump International is not the renaming. It is the coercion that produced it and the extraordinary terms hidden inside the deal. County staff told commissioners that refusing would put state transportation funding and grant assurances at risk. DeSantis has already removed state attorneys and school board members who crossed him. That is the climate one Democratic commissioner cast her deciding vote in. And the agreement itself is not a normal honorary naming. The Trump family company retains the right to pick vendors, license the name to third parties, and sell branded merchandise off-site. This is not an honor bestowed as much as it is a shakedown. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m…

What a monstrous disgrace

@SenateGOP We all have 2 Senators. If I wish to contact them regarding a national issue, why can't I copy the message to one and paste it to the other? I now get a Security block.
