@realDonaldTrump He didn’t say it, and if he did,
he didn’t mean it, and if he did,
you didn’t understand it,
and if you did, It’s not a big deal,
and if it is, others have said worse

it sounds unbelievably stupid but i have become this media cycle’s “trans athletes” or “migrant caravan.” wild how much supposedly liberal outlets let fox news play the role of news desk editor.

odd how none of these outlets will have me on to interrogate my beliefs directly

Google Maps has now capitulated to Donald Trump and changed the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America.

Apple Maps still uses the correct name.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

August 29 is a very important day, a special day. Today, we honor the memory of the heroes, the fallen heroes of Ukraine, all our defenders, who have been fighting in the full-scale war since 2022 and in the vile war, hybrid war – Russia’s war against Ukraine, against the Ukrainian people – since 2014.

Now, when thousands and thousands of our warriors are defending Ukraine’s position on the front, when our people are being killed in Russian strikes, when we are doing everything to drive this war out of Ukraine and into Russia, primarily through our long-range strikes, we remember that all of this is our active action, all of this is our memory living on. Our active memory. The memory of the deeds of Ukrainian heroes, of the deeds of every man and woman who did not surrender to Russia, who is fighting for Ukraine’s right to be itself.

We honor Ukrainian warriors, we honor the courage of the Ukrainian people, we remember everyone who gave their life for Ukraine, so that Ukraine could live. Thank you. We thank our fallen heroes. We thank all the warriors of our state.

Dolly Parton never bought a fucking yacht for $800 million or flew into space. She bought books for kids.

That lady gave trump her Nobel Peace Prize and trump thanked her by stealing her country's oil.

Trump just cut down cherry trees gifted to the united states by Japan in 1912.

The court said he couldn't and he did it anyway.

He testing the people to see what he can get away with.

Good news: Our lawsuit against the Big Bend border wall was successful and all earth moving activities are stopped until September 15th.

The fight is far from over. Now we need you to call your congressman and your senators to say NO to any more destruction of Big Bend.

Mayor Mamdani with families and park rangers during the NYC Parks Urban Park Rangers Family Camping program in Inwood Hill Park.

Many people might not realize that you can camp even in the heart of the city with NYC Parks and the Urban Park Rangers. Families who enter the lottery and are selected each year can participate, and the program is a great opportunity to unplug, connect with nature, and create family memories.

many of you asked us to cover the wild horses reportedly sold into slaughter under Trump. we did. “We don’t believe that the current program upholds enough protections for wild horses,” Patricia Miller of American Wild Horse Conservation told me. https://t.co/F2nRW37c78

So there’s no confusion:

Trump kidnapped the dictator he doesn’t like, installed a dictator who does as she is told, and stole the country’s oil.

Yes, America is doing naked imperialism again.

We have become the bad guys.

Broken swing sets? Missing basketball nets? Have no fear, Renew Crew is here.

Neighborhood parks are meant for recreation — not frustration. If it’s broken, this crew will fix it. If it’s run-down, they’ll renew it.

Renew Crew: Coming soon to a park near you.

Tucker Carlson calls for Trump’s removal from office.

Everybody who, at one time supported Trump will eventually figure out that they were wrong, whether they admit it or not.

Child: It’s the mayor.

Mamdani: *laughs*

Child: What? You are the mayor. You could become the king.

Mamdani: I’m happy as the mayor. Jalen Brunson is the king.

New in PN: Are voters finally realizing that GOP presidents are disasters?

"The last three Republican presidents have handed their Democratic successors an economic catastrophe, and the last three Democrats have had to do their best to clean it up. Why don’t Democrats ever say that? I think it would make a difference." — @mtomasky https://t.co/XwfyXtlmq1

@Acosta After just. small amount of research it appears that getting 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan crude out of the ground will take 10-30 years and cost close to $2 trillion. This won't effect gasoline prices anytime soon. Reserves, for the time being, remain trapped reserves.

We are rapidly devolving into a dystopian state.

ICE is ordering $2 MILLION worth of robot dogs that can open doors, track people and see 360 degrees. They’ve also approved the purchase of “shock gloves” capable of delivering up to 380 volts.

Add Flock cameras tracking vehicles across the country and a growing surveillance network capable of automatically detecting and following human movement.

None of this is normal or good.
