Imagine supporting Trump after he led a failed attempt at a coup on live TV.
Jason D. Meister 🇺🇸@jason_meister

Imagine throwing a “No Kings” protest after your party refused to hold a primary, coronated Kamala without a single vote, sued to keep RFK Jr. off the ballot, and attempted to remove Trump from state ballots only after your illegal lawfare scheme failed. If there was a modern day monarchy in America there would only be one party you could point to. The Democrats.

Christian nationalists Joel Webbon and Wesley Todd agree with God that "women need to shut up": "Women, shut up! Of course. It is literally an offense to God."

Yea bc they’re *more Democratic now* and less elitist than the country club Republicans. But every editorial page in America is still required to run a “Dems are rich educated elitist out-of-touch snobs” monthly.
Peter Sterne@petersterne

The fact college-educated workers recognize they have more in common with the working class (and in many cases, are themselves part of the working class) rather than the managers of capital is very promising for left politics nytimes.com/2026/03/27/bus…

All true. But what the right-wing Trump-Loving Bradley family that’s funding the folks at SoS *don’t want you to do* is divide 54 by 3 and then compare that number to CA population to WY’s. For the lazy or innumerate: 18 v 68. Hmmmmm
Save Our States@SaveOurStates

You obviously don’t understand how the Electoral College works. 1. Electors aren’t anonymous 2. Political parties choose electors—the EC is not a permanent body 3. States are awarded electoral votes based on their populations. That’s why California has 54 and Wyoming has 3

🚨Do you understand the irony of what just happened.. the FBI spent two years investigating Hillary Clinton for using a personal email for government work.. it dominated every news cycle.. it decided an election.. "lock her up.." the man they put in charge of the FBI.. just got his personal email hacked by Iran.. the DOJ confirmed it.. Iran-linked group "Handala" breached FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email and got his data.. think about the timing.. America has fired 850 Tomahawk missiles at Iran this month.. spent billions.. and Iran didn't fire back with a missile.. they walked through the front door of the FBI.. and here's what nobody wants to say out loud.. the FBI Director was using a personal email in the first place.. the same thing the FBI called a national security threat when Hillary did it.. the agency that decides what's a crime.. doesn't follow its own rules.. The rules only apply until you're the one making them.

How come Trump isn’t asking the nation “How’s your 401K?”

Substitute “rural whites who claim to hate socialism” here and tell me how it sounds:
Matt Van Swol@mattvanswol

Illegals are voting. Illegals are getting free food. Illegals are getting free childcare. Illegals are getting free education. Illegals are getting free tax credits. Illegals are getting free healthcare. Illegals are getting free housing assistance. Illegals are getting free legal representation. Illegals are getting free mental health services. Illegals are getting free college tuition in over a dozen states. It is the most insane scam ever perpetrated on the American people.

@davidharsanyi The govt reduced senior poverty from 32 pct to 8 percent in about thirty years between mid1960s and mid90s. And they did almost exclusively with cash (SSI) and in-kind transfers (Medicare). Cite me a comparable accomplish by private sector billionaire/s. You got nuthin…

Probably an unpopular opinion, but billionaires tend to do lot more good for society with their money than the government.

@BlackLabelAdvsr @EdwardGLuce You and fellow believers should sell and donate everything you own: homes, cars, jewelry, stocks, everything. Prove your faith, don’t just preach it. I have charities in mind. Or I’ll give you my bank routing and acct numbers if u can liquidate it all into cash. Lmk.

If your pastor isn’t teaching you that the rapture is real, a third temple will be built in Jerusalem, the tribulation is a real event, and that there will be a 1,000 year reign under Jesus on earth, then you need to find a new church.
