I keep thinking that if Donald Trump had gone to prison for January 6, as he should have, all those Iranian schoolgirls would be having dinner with their families this evening.

Even among racists, Trump stands out with the stupidity and simple-mindedness of his beliefs.

Pepper just writhes and wriggles 'til you let her go. Or she goes stiff and gives you the Very Disappointed In You look, which she has perfected.

Pepper will not sit in a lap, and she does not like being held.

He's welcome to talk to my kids. My eldest takes the subway 40 min each way every day starting in Harlem (gasp!). If asked how he manages to do it, I suspect he'd respond, "Huh? What? Subway? I sit. Or sometimes I stand. What are you talking about bro?"

An emergency vet shared the story of Hiccups and Iris’ incredible recovery journey. Despite being very small, they showed remarkable strength. Iris later became a gentle little support companion when the vet welcomed a baby. 🐾πŸ₯Ή

This is hilarious.

Also, completely enraging.

The SAVE Act is Jim Crow 2.0. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of people.

If Trump is saying he won’t sign any bills until the SAVE Act is passed, then so be it: there will be total gridlock in the Senate.

Senate Democrats will not help pass the SAVE Act under any circumstances.

MAGA is having a total meltdown over these facts. 🀯 I’ve got the receipts on the economy, the media cover-ups, and the legal battles the regime doesn't want you to see. It’s time to stop the noise. 🧾πŸ”₯

We have, by far, the biggest, most expensive military in the world not to mention enough nukes to eradicate the entire world population dozens of times over, but we're supposed to believe we're also so feeble we were at risk of attack by a military a fraction of our size. Complete and utter bullshit

The incredible thing is that anyone with eyes or ears can tell that mamdani clearly loves NYC so much. The idea that he "hates America" is just so on its face ridiculous that people claiming it look particularly pathetic.

So, it's treason then?
