My understanding of us. Where we find ourselves now. Where are we? I don't know. But it's confusing and loud. Take a stroll into my mind? ⬇️ 1/14

@nancyscola @POLITICOMag 😂

New from me for @POLITICOMag: a look at the debate over whether Democrats should quit this platform. politico.com/news/magazine/…

@SRuhle @deanbphillips @X Zero. That's the amount of evidence you & Dean have that progressives don't hear conservative complaints. They're inescapable. Zero Number of fucks given by Dean that MAGA want to shoot Dems. MLK Jr & Baldwin called this shit out 60yrs ago

@deanbphillips @X Right on

To all the progressives fleeing @X, how in the world will you understand how half our country feels if you only congregate with the like-minded? That’s what got us into this mess in the first place. So stick around. Engage in some debate. Make your case. Learn different perspectives.

@deanbphillips @X 🖕 I read 12 fucking hrs a day. So I don't need Idiot 🇺🇸mansplaining: If you criticize the SC, u should he jailed Or Maybe those 2ndA folks can do something about Clinton Or Fed LE should have immunity" Or 🇨🇳pays tariffs MLK Jr. & Baldwin called u out 60yrs ago ya pathetic prick

@jimgeraghty @elonmusk This is some of the dumbest shit ever written. Jim. 👍 Right in your wheelhouse. Enjoy licking the pavement behind the footsteps of the broligarchs.

Do you think @elonmusk is just one multimillion-dollar “military-grade intelligence-gathering operation” away from being neutralized in public life? washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/…

...birthed in the soil of the soul long ago, imprisoned at a distance, callous comfort of man's patriarchal sin. Voices carried freedom down a treacherous trail of cold stone. Th body of women found th seed, a fraternal twin, dug a grave for their chains & buried th burden within

@RiddleTricia @RyanWaltersSupt No. Jefferson was explicit on this. x.com/Splatterthough…

@RyanWaltersSupt He is saying for the AP Government classrooms. The Bible itself was a very strong, direct influence on founding-era Americans who drafted and ratified the Constitution.

The Bible is back in Oklahomas classrooms. We are getting our kids back on track.

@calleymeans @McFaul 31% of eligible voters voted for Trump 29% voted Harris 40 percent weren't persuaded by either <2% isn't a mandate "Mandates" are rare. Sloganeering is common. You have no idea why or what 75m people voted "for." Ps Most are demonstrably, objectively, politically illiterate.

@McFaul Nobody voted for Trump to adjust the marginal tax rate Michael. The vote was for fundamental change to our major institutions, and it was the most decisive political mandate in 30 years - cutting across races, genders and socioeconomic levels.

My Republican friends assured me that Trump would just cut taxes and regulations and not do all the extreme things he talked about on the campaign trail. I still hope they're right, but I fear they were wrong. With notable exceptions, the list of nominees most certainly suggests they were wrong.

@RonFilipkowski @cathyob1 I mean...

@TrumpsTaxes @MrJonCryer "A previous agreement by the parties designated that the materials much of it containing “personal sensitive information”(photo, text, payment receipts) be destroyed." Gotta love the privileges of the powerful...

More apparent leaks from the House Ethics report on Matt Gaetz. Young women (girls?) were allegedly given drugs and bedrooms for sexual activities. amp.miamiherald.com/news/politics-…

@oneunderscore__ 😂 "Noyce" So perfect.

Fox News: "The Onion has 4.3 trillion daily readers."

@ruthbenghiat @froomkin Genuinely feels like the political body has stage 3 malignant, metastatic, metachronous multiple primary cancer, that's contagious, we have a one in a million chance at beating it... chemo treatment looks to be long & arduous & we're definitely losing some limbs in the process...

@Apt_Learner @meridithmcgraw You should hear what🇺🇸ns were willing to put into your food for $, b4 both parties & people of all political stripes created and protected the health of 🇺🇸ns as best they could with what they had to work with. ...aint it funny how it is? ya never miss it till it's gone away 🎶

@meridithmcgraw People in this thread big mad that HHS is going to start asking questions of the companies putting the equivalent of sawdust, bacon grease and MSG in your food.

News: Trump expected to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS politico.com/news/2024/11/1…

Beyond the event horizon of awfulness of his deeds... The prophetic arrogance of it all is stunning Glad the kids didn't have to testify & it still resulted in a long-term expulsion from their lives, polite society & (ostensibly) lifelong monitoring (for whatever that's worth)

@chucktodd Chuck fucking Todd, folks... 🐎race coverage only goes so far before being put down like [insert Emerald Downs victim name], Chucky MSM doesn't possess the necessary skill to inform a wildly uninformed electorate or save cable "news" But he does want a few more paychecks first

These confirmation hearings may just save cable TV for the short term.

While the electorate is demonstrably & objectively politically illiterate, uninformed & ill-informed... cable "news" junky Chuck Fucking Todd—incapable of doing journalism— hopes🐒s throwin💩will save him & his band of narcissistic dipshits. Surprise!

@StochasticTerr1 @strandedinavon @MorePerfectUS Oh, fuck. Nevermind. Saw your timeline. Enjoy sucking rich people's dicks and licking trump's boots.

@StochasticTerr1 @strandedinavon @MorePerfectUS Sure, why not? Nearly every institution has been systemically underfunded by the people who don't want them to exist—for decades— producing non-stop complaints about poor, slow & ineffective services. Why are u simping for billionaire tax loopholes?

This is what oligarchy looks like.

@DevinCow Joe Biden is 6ft tall. How tall did the WH doctor say Trump measured?

So, Joe, where’s my gold toilet seat?
