They can lie to themselves, but they can't lie to us!

The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children.

The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war.

Priorities.

Pam Bondi's little bitch, Alina Habba, is not much more than a racist political hack.

In blow to Trump DOJ, judge disqualifies ‘triumvirate’ leading U.S. attorney’s office in NJ The judge said the DOJ's defense of the triad was an "enormous assertion of Presidential power."

🚨BREAKING: Attorney General Pam Bondi violated federal law when she replaced Alina Habba, the former interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, with a “triumvirate” of attorneys, a federal judge ruled Monday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Pam Bondi’s US Attorney Gambit Smacked Down by Judge as Unconstitutional Lawlessness and Disorder In a searing ruling, a federal judge has rejected...

In a searing ruling, a federal judge has rejected Attorney General Pam Bondi's ham-handed workaround to the disqualification of Alina Habba as U.S. attorney for New Jersey. "The President doesn’t like that he cannot simply appoint whomever he wants," he wrote. talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

Wrote this yesterday. TIL from @motherjones.com it might've been Melania on the fuckjet? I now think "EXEC1F" means "Top Executive office FLOTUS."

Did Melania enjoy the 737 fuckjet as much as Kristi and Corey might've?

Kristi's $220M, 1-minute DHS ad cost more than nearly every 2026 Academy Award Best Picture nominated film (e.g., Sinners).

BTW, Michael Jackson moonwalked in Florsheim shoes.

The Florsheim oxford is on full display with Trump (not seen in this photo) and several people sitting near him.

The "Mao Suit" is on full display with Mao and several people sitting with him.

The "Generalissimo Uniform" is on full display with Stalin and several people walking with him.

With revelations about a bizarre footwear fetish, the president joins a long line of autocrats throughout history by insisting that his subordinates copy his style — or else.

In a black and white photo taken by Steve Schapiro, James Baldwin danced “the hitchhike" with CORE worker Doris Castle, New Orleans, 1963.

Today’s small victory: Looked at an inventory of still photos of James Baldwin and learned that I correctly identified the #60s dance (the “Hitchhike”) he was doing in a photo I created metadata for two years ago. Yes, I have knowledge of popular 1960s dances for some reason lol 😆 #photography

The woman in these photos of James Baldwin dancing is often misidentified online as Lorraine Hansberry. In reality, Baldwin was dancing with Doris Castle of CORE (Congress of Racial Equality). Steve Schapiro took the pics of Baldwin and Castle during a light moment in New Orleans, 1963. #photography

Lavern Baker, an attractive Black woman, smiles into the camera for this promo photo shoot wearing makeup, modest jewelry, and a sleeveless white dress with sparkles.

This photo shows Sonny Burton, an elderly Black man sitting in a wheelchair in prison, who should be at home with family members to live out the rest of his life.

This is incredibly good news for Sonny Burton, his family members, his friends, and those of us opposed to the death penalty.

Sonny Burton is old, sick, and disabled. He also did not kill anyone. I wish the governor had pardoned and freed him. But failing that, this was right.

The U.S. has lost the plot and needs to be shuttered immediately. The world is not some vast killing field for white boys to go play toy soldiers with.

Country Joe's Viet Nam Experience image, which shows a map with Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, N. Viet Nam, S. Viet Nam, the Gulf of Thailand, and the South China Sea. There are landmarks and commentary with, on the bottom of the image, text that says "The Viet Nam War Dec. 22, 1961 - May 7, 1965."

This is what at respect for expertise and for audiences looks like.
