Things most Americans agree on:

Groceries cost too much.

Tariffs suck and make no sense.

Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.

The debt is a mess.

The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.

Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.

Americans are exhausted.

AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.

Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.

Canadians are super fucking cool.

Mexicans are chill.

Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.

Good neighbors are a blessing.

Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.

We all question, are we alone in the universe?

We all fuck up along the way.

Epstein didn’t hang himself.

The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.

The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!

Things we’re told to fight about:

Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.

That’s the joke.

News media has completely failed this country in way imaginable.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

NYT headline when the economy added 266,000 jobs under Biden vs. NYT headline when BLS says the economy added 172,000 jobs under Trump.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

This is how economics are supposed to work.

[Mark Palmer @MarketPalmer_]

Average 42-inch TV cost by year:

2000: $15,000

2005: $3,500

2010: $1,000

2015: $500

2020: $400

Today: $250

Why aren't all industries like this?

[Richard Hanania @RichardHanania]

A little remarked upon fact: The Biden administration prosecuted the guy who leaked Trump's tax records and he got sentenced to five years in prison.

Imagine someone leaking something damaging about Biden and the Trump administration prosecuting them.

@DangerousThinkg The Poll tax was an essential Jim Crow Law. A passport is $65. Getting a berth certificate is $20-$60.

This will hurt low income voters and minority groups tend to have a much higher percentage of lower income people.

So that’s why Schumer is correct. Not hard honestly.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

@DangerousThinkg This literally is so misleading. You asked people if they had “ID” not if they had a passport, birth certificate or naturalization papers which in what you would need to vote under the SAVE ACT. It’s embarrassing that you can’t even deal in truth. It’s a poll tax.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

Getting a passport is $65. Birth certificates, the one you’d need to vote, also aren’t free. Probably about $20. So it’s essentially a poll tax, which (ding ding) was a key part of the Jim Crow Laws.

That’s why the bill is disproportionately bad for low income people.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

What’s interesting is this woman goes around asking people do they have ID?

Except you can’t vote under the SAVE act with ID. You need a birth certificate, passport or naturalization papers.

Why didn’t she ask if people had those specific documents?

[Dangerous Thoughts @DangerousThinkg]

Senate Majority Leader John Thune must believe Chuck's nonsense

Why else won't he get the SAVE Act passed?

The logic in the SAVE Act and its over 75% bipartisan support is unquestionable

It is incredible to watch leftists get embarrassed repeating Schumer's false talking points

Wasted billions and billions and billions of dollars to be in a much worse strategic position.

That’s not winning, that’s a foreign policy disaster.

I know it’s only been 36 hours and everything since this got posted but how is this going? Did we win and get everything we wanted yet?

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This week alone:

DOJ opens an investigation into the woman Trump raped.

The White House is caught steering a $620 million contract to Don Jr.’s firm.

The Pentagon hands out a $10 billion contract after Trump buys stock in the company.

Foreign governments are caught funneling hundreds of millions into a random JPMorgan account tied to Trump’s “Board of Peace” with no oversight.

It’s just Thursday.

The corruption isn’t hidden anymore. It’s happening out in the open.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

Not even trying to hide it.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

BREAKING: The Pentagon reportedly approved a $600 million loan to a company linked to Donald Trump Jr. just months after his venture capital firm invested in it.

And according to reporting, the deal was not part of a normal process.

It was allegedly pushed forward by a top White House aide.

Americans were told Trump would “drain the swamp.”

Instead, critics increasingly see a government where political proximity appears to create financial opportunity in real time.

A president’s son invests in a company…

then months later that same company receives a massive Pentagon-backed loan after intervention from inside the White House.

This is exactly why people keep asking whether political power in America is becoming a business model for the families who hold it.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

What a great country.

🚨 Trump has pardoned Trevor Milton, a man convicted of stealing $695 million from investors.

This pardon came after Milton donated nearly $1 million to Trump's PAC.

HOLY CRAP Trump actually accomplished a miracle. Here is what he got out of Iran:

- Reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium by about 98%

- Limit uranium enrichment to 3.67% purity (far below weapons-grade)

- Cut the number of installed centrifuges by roughly two-thirds

- Only enrich uranium at one declared site (Natanz)

- Stop enrichment activities at Fordow and convert it into a research facility

- Redesign the Arak heavy-water reactor so it could not easily produce weapons-grade plutonium

- Ship out or dilute excess enriched uranium
Allow extensive inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
Permit continuous monitoring of nuclear facilities and supply chains

- Accept “snap” inspections under expanded monitoring rules

- Avoid building new heavy-water reactors for years

- Stay within strict limits on uranium stockpile size and centrifuge development for set periods ranging from 10–25 years

Ooops, sorry!

That was the JCPOA that Obama signed with Iran, only to have him tear it up, kill 140 kids, get hundreds of Americans injured, 13 killed, and gas prices to surge 50%.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

In a democracy people get exactly the kind of government they deserve.

Don’t forget DOGE cost taxpayers over $150 billion. Didn’t save a single penny.

Completely predictable, too.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

"In the end, American consumers paid $159 billion in temporary national sales taxes for which most will never be reimbursed a penny. And rather than those taxes being used by the federal government to, say, repave roads or build bridges, most of the money will instead provide corporate windfalls." https://t.co/gkdRAzPBz5

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

The President got a 2 billion settlement of taxpayer money for nothing. And is spending billions per day to worsen US position in Iran. It’s easily one of the worst foreign policy decisions a President has ever made.

No gasps there, huh?

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

I literally gasped watching this

Caleb Hammer asks how this transgender guest paid for his transition surgery, specifically “the boob job”

He replies “That was free — Colorado taxpayers”

- Transition surgery free
- Boob job free
- Hormones medications free

All this was free, paid for by American taxpayers

Again, I want to repeat this. US Taxpayers are paying for boob jobs for transgender men to get implants

I had to verify this and it’s all true

Colorado’s Medicaid program (Health First Colorado) covers gender-affirming care services, including surgeries like breast augmentation

This was recently changed under their Democrat Governor

In 2025, Colorado passed HB 25-1309 signed by Gov. Jared Polis. This codified and expanded insurance protections for gender-affirming care across plans, including hormone therapy, breast augmentation, facial surgery, and more

It even prevents insurers from denying what transgenders consider medically necessary care. Private insurance plans in the state must also cover these services under essential health benefits rules

Absolutely insane

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Trump is now reportedly responsible for roughly 27.7% of the entire U.S. national debt accumulated under all presidents combined.

That is an astonishing figure historically.

The national debt just crossed $39 trillion.

President Trump has added roughly $12–13 trillion to the debt across his two terms in office.

That’s approximately 30% of ALL U.S. national debt accumulated since 1789.

In 2016, Trump said he would pay down the national debt “over a period of eight years.”

Instead:

- First term: +$7.8 trillion
- Second term: roughly +$4–5 trillion already

And yes, COVID affected first-term spending.

It does not explain adding another trillion dollars every five months without a pandemic.

A political movement built on:
“fiscal conservatism”
“small government”
“balanced budgets”

has now overseen the largest debt expansion tied to any single presidency in American history.

[Chris Peterson @cmpetey]

Still waiting for that healthcare plan.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

American doesn’t have health insurance. He just had to spend 2 nights in the emergency room

He was shopping for health insurance but the cheapest plan he could get was about $900 per month, so he went without

Heres what he was billed without insurance in the emergency room

- The emergency department visit was almost $5,000
- Observation stay, $6,000
- Laboratory panels, $2,000
- More bills are listed

The total came out to be $22,000

But because he didn’t have insurance he got a discount

“$2,400 is what I ended up paying because when you don't have insurance, these hospitals give you a discount and they discounted off $19,600”

Keep in mind if he had health insurance he would be also paying $900 per month in premiums

Health insurance in America is a scam

He thinks they’re over charging health insurance companies and that’s why they can give a discount, but that’s not true

What’s really happening is a scam

These cash discounts are reported nationwide in America. Uninsured cash-pay patients routinely get up to 80% discounts off prices

These discounts are on everything, including dental

We need healthcare reform
