As someone who was sexually assaulted as a child and as an adult, I AM FUCKING SICK TO MY STOMACH. Congress do the job you were hired for AND GET RID OF THIS POS

Dear Congress,

WHY. IS. DONALD. TRUMP. STILL. IN. OFFICE. AFTER. PUBLIC. EVIDENCE. WAS. RELEASED. PROVING. HE. RÆPED. WOMEN. AND. CHILDREN.

[The Hormuz Letter @HormuzLetter]

BREAKING: ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC and Fox News, all five networks of the White House TV pool, have just suspended all coverage of Trump's public events effective immediately over the White House ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico, with no replacement pool, saying "no administration should restrict a news organization because it objects to its reporting."

The White House left the primary TV pool slot empty for today, the day CNN was due to lead it for Trump's trip to the UN General Assembly in New York, after CNN's White House reporter had her pass confiscated on Saturday.

Trump begins UN week, two days after cutting short Camp David over a possible escalation with Iran, with no shared network feed of his public events.

I just want to point out… the amount of money the U.S. has spent on war in the last 2.5 months is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never ‘can we afford it’… it’s what we choose to prioritize.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Republicans control all 3 branches of government — and no one can afford to live, our allies hate us, and we started a war to distract from the Epstein files and protect the billionaire pedophiles in them.

They are the crazy that needs to be sent packing and removed from DC.

[cat @whoiammendes]

So we officially have a dictator now. We great yet?

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

Don’t be fooled by all these Republicans running for office suddenly disagreeing with Trump. They’d vote for him a fourth time in a heartbeat if they could.

I called to cancel my health insurance because I couldn't afford the premium.

The rep asked why.

I said $480 a month for a plan with $6,500 deductible isn't insurance.

It's a monthly fee I pay to still go bankrupt if anything actually happens.

She didn't have an answer.

In case you’re not paying attention, banning the free press is straight out of an authoritarian handbook on how to take control of a country from the inside.

[Amelia @amelia_tweetz]

Seeing people argue against a 32 hour work week is insane. Y’all need hobbies, friends, sunlight, literally anything outside of work. Life is not supposed to be just work until you die. We really will never revolt because some of y’all are way too brainwashed.

@realDonaldTrump Only thing fake is you

I don't EVER, EVER want to hear about Joe Biden's age or his cognitive abilities.

AND OH YEAH, TERM LIMITS!

[mel blanc @veIvetines]

This is an admittance of them fucking up EVERYTHING btw

[Jesse Kelly @JesseKellyDC]

This is not acceptable. This is humiliating for the country. I don’t know what needs to be done, but we have to stop this.

The senate is not hospice.

[Lynne @_ayandamay]

Hey, @ticketmaster, since you offered refunds to all the crybabies who were “traumatized” by Macklemore saying “free Palestine“, are you also offering refunds for people who don’t want to go to a concert where an artist was kicked off a tour for speaking their mind?

Because it’s only fair. But my guess is that you’re not gonna do that, huh?

[ThePatrioticBlonde™🇺🇸 @ImBreckWorsham]

Trump literally just offered $5k to every American to vote Republican in the upcoming midterms.

Being Italian and an attorney by trade, I know a thing or two about organized crime.

That's not an incentive.

That's a bribe.

It's also a violation of Federal Law under 18 U.S.C. § 597 which reads, "it is a crime to offer, give, solicit, or accept compensation in exchange for voting, withholding a vote, or voting for or against a particular candidate."

He just committed a federal crime.

The clearest sign the economy is getting worse?

Nobody is surprised by financial struggle anymore.

“I’m 32 and still have roommates.”

Makes sense.

“I’m 40 and moved back in with my parents.”

Makes sense.

“We make good money but daycare is too expensive.”

Makes sense.

“My appliances are 15 years old.”

Smart move.

“I stopped eating out.”

Same here.

That’s the recession indicator nobody tracks.

Things that would’ve sounded financially alarming 15 years ago are now considered completely normal.

We didn’t solve the struggle.

We just got used to it.

[Jeremy @jeremyct]

Reminder that trump still owes us money.

$5,000 dividend check that got promised.

$2,000 tariff revenue check that got promised.

$1,700 refund check on top of that, also promised.

Add it up and that’s $8,700 sitting somewhere that was supposed to land in regular people’s accounts and never actually did.

[LibertyBelle @LibertyBellaaa]

I went in work today. I told my boss that I hate our company and am actively working to dismantle it. I pledged my allegiance to our competitor. I told them our company sucks and I’m taking two weeks off, with pay. Who cares what our customers want. I’m doing what I want.

Just kidding. I’d get fired.
Only members of Congress are allowed to do that.

[Jeremy @jeremyct]

My boomer aunt bought her first house in 1987.

Receptionist job. Single income. $61,000 for a 3 bedroom in a good school district.

That house is worth $410,000 today.

Her son is a software engineer. Makes $118,000 a year. Nearly double what she ever made in her career.

Been renting the same one bedroom for six years.

The down payment alone is more than her entire original mortgage was.

Same family. Same work ethic. Twice the income.

He still doesn’t own a single square foot of anything.

She got in before the door closed.

At a family dinner, my uncle said women were "too weak" for physically demanding jobs. My grandma looked at him and said, "I gave birth without anesthesia. You called an ambulance because of kidney stones." The table went completely silent.

I took a week off work and learned two things:

1. I thrive in a life of leisure.
2. I cannot currently afford a life of leisure.
