You are seeing in real time why Trump companies went bankrupt so many times. Set aside your politics. This guy is incapable of making a deal or meaningful decision and it follows the same cycle. Big flashy announcement (Epic Fury). Adversity hits (Hormuz closed). Defraud stakeholders (promise two week solution). Freeze up (endless two week cycle loop). Compound the problem (resource depletion). Final chance to save face rejected (what you’re seeing now). Bankruptcy strikes and blame others during chaos. Rinse repeat.
Every Republican that supported releasing the Epstein files has now been voted out of office. Let that sink in, MAGAts. You belong to the #Rapeublican Party. Own it you sick fucks
Mike Johnson thinks $174,000 isn’t enough to survive without insider trading, but $15/hour is too much for everyone else.
Every single fucking day these people prove how disconnected they are from normal Americans.
You have every right to know what your government is doing, and they have no right to know what you are doing.
That is why they are called public servants and we are called private citizens.
Instead, the relationship has been inverted. The state hides behind secrecy, classified files, and redactions while demanding total visibility into your finances, communications, movement, and behavior.
A society where the rulers live in privacy while the population lives under surveillance is the very definition of tyranny.
The USA is a place with no healthcare, but 1000 billionaires.
At least 49 of those billionaires made all their money from Private Healthcare.
Perhaps you can connect the dots.
I’d say unbelievable, but I haven’t been in a coma for the past 10 years. Whenever there’s a crisis, Trump calls Putin and comes out reciting the Kremlin line and singing Putin's praises. Trump is Putin's creature and the GOP is complicit.
"Spain said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it."
Spoken like a true rapist.
Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.
Remember how Republicans lost their fucking minds when Hunter Biden sold a painting - but when Eric Trump sold 49% of Trump’s World Liberty Financial to UAE Spy Sheikh for $500M months before Trump granted UAE access to our highly coveted AI chips - the silence is deafening.
Unfortunately it’s more fundamental than that.
Almost all the stuff on the bottom went down in cost due to increased automation and offshoring.
Meanwhile, the stuff on top is domestic labor intensive.
To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets.
They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.
