I had no idea what would happen when I made this. I was scared for our country. I had an idea. And I went ahead and put together this video. We posted it. I made lunch. And when I came back to my phone, I was flooded with notifications. My life basically changed in that moment.

One year ago, we released our first ad ‘Are You Better Off’. We had no idea where it would take us. We just knew we had to do everything we could to defeat Trump, no matter how big or small. Thank you for all your support.

James Talarico: One trillionaire should not be able to buy our elections and have direct control over a U.S. Senator

Elon Musk: GOD HAS A PENIS!!!!

I'd say bombing a girls' school, lying about it, and then refusing to release the investigative report is a bit more "sickening." But I guess I don't have the moral clarity of the New York Post.

EXCLUSIVE: U.S. troops told us what the Pentagon hasn’t: destroyed aircraft, bombed barracks, families left behind in Bahrain, troops digging their own foxholes.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs.

After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

Ben Meiselas on the significance of independent media in the Trump era:

He thought he would bulldoze over us. He controlled the institutions, the media.

But people created independent news and media platforms that stood up, and citizen journalists became journalists.

We built the new structures that got out the truth and pushed out the information during this critical time.

And that gives me hope.

Ukrainian journalist @IAPonomarenko on witnessing the aftermath of Russian attacks on civilians trying to flee.

“Half-burnt bodies lying on the asphalt” beside the wreckage of their cars.

“It looks like something that resembles…seventh gates of hell.”

“Something that you would expect to see in horror movies, but it's absolutely reality.”

Wow Trump is just making huge gaffes during this speech:

They gave the wonderful peace prize, right? Does anybody know the name of that peace prize? They gave the Pulitzer Prize to a young lady

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

wtf was that

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Trump doesn't appear to remember the difference between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans:

One of the coolest parts of releasing WTF America?! has been visiting local bookstores, signing copies, and meeting the wonderful people who make these places so special.

Huge thanks to Vroman’s and Flintridge Bookstore for the love and support. Please support your local independent bookstores!

Trump's attempts to bribe and extort the American people will only make things worse for him

[Acyn @Acyn]

Brett Meiselas: Here we are, two years in, and we have significantly higher prices and a Middle East war. And he’s still holding back a lot of the Epstein files.

And you see all of these failed promises… that’s why I think Trump’s strategy of dangling these promises, I actually think that only makes things worse because people don’t believe that stuff. And now they keep saying, “Oh, he’s trying to con me again. I fell for it once two years ago. I’m not going to fall for this BS again.”

You can only get away with that game for so long.

[Brett Meiselas @BMeiselas]

Donald Trump is a real sicko.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Brett Meiselas: The American people are really struggling right now, and they're not concerned about how good Husted's backside looks, even though Donald Trump wants to bring that up at every rally. They're concerned about high prices. They're concerned about the price of gas. They're concerned about the war.
