Ineffectual opposition party. We have to have a viable left party in this country.

Just remember, everyone, we need to be bipartisan. It’s really important to work with the guy who thinks the deep state made his brother punch him in the face.

The people in the rust belt who voted for this guy won't be involved. It will all be in red "right to work" states (if at all).

We're a huge consumer economy, the fact that we have a trade deficit isn't surprising. It's not even really a bad thing.

How are the Red Hot Chili Peppers not canceled by now?

Those 2A folks are really quiet about tyrannical government now.

It's always projection, "we need the second amendment to protect us from a tyrannical government." Then supports a tyrannical government.

Oh, it's not. We don't have the rule of law anymore.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

Let's assume you were someone who DID want to privatize all public services.

Why would you pick the guy who went bankrupt 6 times (including casinos) and the guy who broke Twitter and is blowing up a rocket over the Caribbean every other week?

Peter Thiel backs the Hallow prayer app, which is now promoting “The Way,” a book composed by Josemaría Escrivá, the initiator of Opus Dei. Leonard Leo (Federalist Society, Teneo) reportedly belongs to Opus Dei. 1/

Trans women transferred to men’s prisons despite rulings against Trump’s order Incarcerated trans women report being groped by male guards and suicidal thoughts: ‘I’m punished for existing’

The Guardian is reporting that Trump is openly violating a court order, and has transferred multiple transgender women to men's facilities.

We know in Florida, transgender women are having their hair shorn, feminine items confiscated, and pulled off medication.

This is inhumane and illegal.

Since we are no longer defending against the possibility, does anyone know when the Russian cyber attack is supposed to happen?

This is an infomercial!?!

It's a complete embarrassment. People can debate whether trump is being paid by Russia, but effectively, he might as well be, he wouldn't act any different.

The people in charge of making the arrest are complicit. We're on our own.

Exactly.

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny.

But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

Traitors all, don't look away.

Since there is an authoritarian anti-dei movement usurping our constitutional republic. We should also purge any members of Opus DEI from serving in public office.

Elon Musk & @elonmusk Follow The REAL reason so many Democrats are upset about entitlements (social security, medical, etc) fraud investigations is that they are using your taxpayer money as handouts to attract and retain ILLEGAL immigrants. Their future voters. That's what it's all about. Truth. 10:48 AM • 2/17/25 • 7.7M Views

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

Black History moment - it had been rumored that Charlton Heston (in blackface) was originally intended to star in Malcolm X.

Since he knows so much about h1tler, he must know how it ends too???

How does the Trump Administration claim to have a "broad mandate" to execute project 2025 when they claimed they didn't know anything about it during the campaign?
