I'm so sick of hearing about the MAGATMORONS, tRump, and all the GOP traitors. Lock them up and get them out of our democracy. Bring respect, sanity and peace back to America.

July 2026, at his apartment in Tacoma, Washington, Marine Corps veteran James Mitchell, 31, was having what seemed like a normal evening-until his service dog, Sergeant, detected something James couldn’t feel yet.
James served two tours overseas and came home with severe PTSD. He’d been paired with Sergeant, a
4-year-old German Shepherd, eight months earlier.
The dog had been trained to detect the physical signs of an oncoming episode before James consciously felt them.
“I was sitting on the couch, felt completely fine,” James explained. “Then Sergeant stood up, walked directly in front of me, and put his paws on my chest.
I was confused. Then it hit-my heart was racing, my hands were shaking. The episode was starting.” By recognizing the signs early, Sergeant gave James crucial seconds to use his coping techniques before the tull panic attack took hold.
“Without Sergeant, I would’ve been on the floor for an hour,” James said, his voice breaking. “He stopped it before it started. He knows my body better than I do.”
James’s therapist says Sergeant’s interventions have reduced James’s severe episodes by 80%. James has been able to return to work part-time and reconnect with his family.
“Sergeant gave me my life back,” James whispered, pressing his forehead to the dog’s. “I don’t know where l’a be without him. Probably not here.” James now advocates for service dog funding for veterans. He says every veteran with PTSD deserves what Sergeant gave him: a reason to stay present, and a partner who never stops watching over them.
Sometimes survival isn’t about demons-it’s about having someone who sees them coming and stands between you and the darkness.

Dear @ASPCA —

I’d like to report cat abuse.

[Kat in Paradise 🌊🇺🇲🇳🇿 @madyankee]

@DougWahl1 It's terribly sad that the US president continues to be so delusional and tone deaf

@DougWahl1 Oh hell NO!

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

Donald Trump's personal lawyer and "fixer" cannot assume the role of Attorney General and run the Department of Justice.

Todd Blanche has already withheld nearly 3M pages of The Epstein Files, and will continue to cover-up Trump's Dereliction of Duty and Abuse of Power.

It's not just a conflict of interest.
It's pure corruption.

@Damaan4u33 Duh! RED!

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The Trump administration admitted in court that it canceled billions of dollars in federal funding “based solely” on whether a state voted for Trump.

Using taxpayer dollars to reward political allies and punish opponents is not democracy.

It’s authoritarianism.

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.

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.

[The Shallow State @OurShallowState]

The fact that Todd Blanche has refused to comply with the court order to release the Epstein files following Katie Phang's lawsuit, should have ended his bid to become AG, and be a more significant story.
The fact that the Epstein Estate ACTUALLY PAID a settlement to one of the women who alleged that Donald Trump raped her as a minor, and it was paid AFTER Epstein died, as told under oath by Epstein's longtime accountant, should be a more significant story.
The fact that Trump said he wasn't ever on Epstein's plane and then we found out he was, should be a more significant story.
The fact that senior officials gathered in the Situation Room to concoct and coordinate an Epstein coverup should be the most significant story of all.
And when you combine ALL these stories and add to it his hiring of Alex Acosta, the birthday card, the innuendo Trump wrote on the card, the movement of Maxwell to a more lenient facility, and then - especially - his persistently panicked behavior on all things Epstein, it really should be the end of his presidency.
