$4,000 per year per American.

That’s how much interest we are paying on the debt to banks & foreign countries every year.

A family of four owes $16,000 per year for nothing but interest on the debt!

I lost my re-election because I voted against the policies that caused this.

While they’re telling you to put more beans in your beef so you can afford to make burritos for your family, remember the Israeli lobby spent $30 million to take me out of Congress because I wouldn’t vote for the things that have made your grocery bills so high.

Here's the psychological trick authoritarian politics depends on:
Make you exhausted.
Make outrage constant.
Make corruption boring.
Make cruelty routine.
Make you believe resistance is pointless.
That's why refusing to become numb matters.
Your exhaustion is part of the strategy.
Take a deep breath, keep your fists in the air. Times will get better, as soon as these parasites are removed from office.

What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers.

Your refund: $0.00
Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion

This world isn’t collapsing because humanity became too compassionate, too equal or too free. It is collapsing because greedy fucking sociopaths converted governments into protection rackets for wealth and empire.

I watched Trump’s speech at the Correspondents’ Dinner last night.
It’s hard to articulate how sad it made me.

Sad and embarrassed and exhausted.

Here is the thing about a man who is a joke. He can’t tell one.

People think humor is a talent. It isn’t. It’s a capacity. To make someone laugh you have to be able to laugh at yourself, and to laugh at yourself you have to step outside of yourself and see what everyone else sees. For one second you have to be just another person in the room.

Most people can do this by the time they are nine years old.

He has never once managed it. Not in fifty years of cameras. Not for a second.

That is not a quirk. It is a symptom. The muscle that lets you tell a joke is the same one that lets you feel what another person feels. A man who cannot survive being laughed at cannot imagine being anyone but himself. He will only ever be generous when it is photographed. He will only ever be kind when it is filmed.

There is a name for it.

So he stood up there and did what he always does. He hit down. He made jokes about people’s weight. He made jokes about their intelligence. He made jokes about how women look. He read out the names of people he doesn’t like, and mocked them. Always mocking. And when no one laughed he blamed his speech writers.

The cruelty dressed as humor has worn so thin.

And for the 30% of you still in the cult who will inevitably call me a crackhead and blame it all on my Dad, all I can say is please, for the love of God, open your eyes. Wake the fuck up. Have some dignity. Have some pride.

Joe Biden wasn’t standing at that podium last night. Donald Trump was.

And at the end of it he put on a red hat that said Trump 2028 and told the room he was running again. No one laughed because everyone knows he has no intention of leaving.

Just another joke at our expense.

Call me crazy, but maybe two men who fathered 19 children with 7 different women shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values.

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

Thank you Rep. Ted Lieu for continuing to fact check and call out the BS and lies!

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The corrupt Trump administration has just admitted to withholding taxpayer dollars from states based on how they voted.

Last I checked we were a democracy, not a dictatorship.

Where the hell is Congress?

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Pete Buttigieg: “The outrageous news that we just got with the Trump administration removed the names of four of our service members who were killed in action, apparently because the fact that they were killed in action goes against his fiction that sometimes he says we are actually not in a war, even though everybody knows we are. What I would say to him is when I was in uniform, when I was deployed, I knew that on some level my life depended on the credibility of the people running our government…American lives depend on him telling the truth even when it's hard.”

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire.

The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

We are supposedly at war to stop Iran from enriching the uranium we “obliterated” over a year ago.

Yesterday we signed a deal to help Saudi Arabia enrich uranium.

The first time the United States has ever helped another country enrich uranium on foreign soil.

The Saudis refused the inspection protocol 140 other countries accept. Too intrusive, they said.

Trump agreed. He signed a national security waiver to get around the rule.

The Saudis paid Kushner $100 million. They put $2 billion into his firm. They put another $6 billion into LIV Golf, which pays Trump properties to host its tournaments. They signed ten billion dollars in Trump-branded real estate deals in Jeddah and Riyadh. All in just the last few years.

But sure. My paintings.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Some of the richest people in the country have now funneled more than $1.6 billion into the 2026 elections.

Democracy is one person, one vote — not billionaires buying elections.

We must end Citizens United and super PACs and move to public funding of elections.

Mitch McConnell has taken more medical leave than most mothers in America get for maternity leave.

[Suzie rizzio @Suzierizzo1]

Rep.Jasmine Crockett is letting everyone know that Todd Blanche cannot be appointed as the U.S Attorney General because he walked into the Senate & told them all that he is still Trump’s personal attorney. It’s also a conflict of Interest especially because of the Epstein files.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The House will pass a $12 billion bailout for farmers suffering from high fuel & fertilizer prices caused by the Iran War, expensive equipment & parts caused by tariffs, and lower sales prices for commodities due to trade disputes with China.

But the GOP is fighting communism!

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The House is scheduled to vote this week on a National Defense Authorization that would integrate our military tech & supply chains with Israel’s.

Today, the Rules Committee will decide whether my amendment to strip section 219 will get a vote.

RT to support the Massie amdt.!

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

The House is set to vote on several bills before they leave on Thursday and won’t be back in session until September.

The $1.15 Trillion dollar NDAA, which will tie our military intelligence to Israel.

A Trump requested $93 billion dollar bill that gives the pentagon $60 billion for the Iran War that has now killed 17 US service members and injured over 430 more. Another $12 billion will go to farmers who have been financially devastated because of Trump’s war with Iran due to high costs of fertilizer and fuel.

And another CR, which is another extension of the budget bc Republicans can’t pass a budget even though they campaign constantly on balancing the budget and reducing the near $40 Trillion dollar debt.

Just to be clear, under full Republican control, their priorities are funding another foreign war, selling out our military intelligence to a foreign country that bankrolls most of our politicians campaigns, and overspending your tax dollars.

Nothing changed by electing Trump and Republicans.

Oh and the national price of gas is $4 dollars again and we only have less than 45 days left of our Strategic Petroleum Reserves. What was that thing we used to say again, drill baby drill?

So much winning with maga..
