Sending 700 million to coal companies is like spending 700 million to build 8 track tapes again.

You are the reason that fucking lunatic imbecile has the job, so maybe STFU?

Bribing Trump is pretty lucrative.

Mamdani: Too often, a working New Yorker is trying to find any extra dollar they can to make ends meet—then they look at city government and they don't see the same application of effort. This is the city charter. This is close to 800 pages. A charter revision commission is a review of the charter. In these 779 pages, I’m sure there are opportunities for government efficiency.

You may think this a far-fetched hypothetical.

But remember: Lady Liberty isn't @realDonaldTrump's type.

Commencement address season hasn’t been going well — for the commencement speakers.
I’m sure you’ve seen the videos on social media. The big shots who have been brought in to inspire a next generation of graduates have used their speeches as opportunities to extol the limitless possibilities that artificial intelligence will bring. They’re speaking to graduates who are entering a shaky job market and are already burdened by tens of thousands of dollars of student debt. However, companies of all stripes are using A.I. as an excuse to slow entry-level hiring and lay off workers. Tech executives have been warning (though it sometimes seems as if they are bragging) that their technologies will be job destroyers.

‼️ NEW: Trump appointed Housing Official Bill Pulte as acting DNI even though he had NO security clearance.

- Background investigation started days AFTER he was chosen.

- Unvetted Trump loyalist will now head US Intelligence.

Trump is an ongoing threat to National Security.

That was the point of all this.

Imagine spending months claiming you’re going to make government more efficient…

…only to get outperformed by a democratic socialist mayor.

Maybe the stocks are catching on to his market manipulation tactics.

LET’S KEEP IT REAL

According to Trump, Black jobs are in factories. And we already know if a Black person is a doctor, lawyer, engineer, executive, professor, pilot, or CEO, he calls it DEI.

Yesterday, Trump was asked why Black unemployment is still 7.3%, far above the national average of 4.3%.

His answer? Don’t worry, Black workers will do well when more factories and car plants open.

Apparently, in Trump’s America, our future is on the assembly line.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville admitted to spending tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions to pay for "vacation escapes" to the Florida Panhandle.

Federal law generally prohibits candidates from using campaign money for personal use.

Exclusive: (gift) The Palm Beach Cop who Jeffrey Epstein Couldn't Stop
“He was just a police chief of a small town up against a powerful man. Had the system listened to him, Epstein would have been cut off a long time earlier.”

AOC: When people see a ballroom and, at the same time, see their health insurance getting cut off, they know that they are paying for that ballroom with no health care, higher grocery prices, and increasingly unaffordable housing.

And so I think people are pissed off about it, and they should be. It’s wrong. This is a complete theft of our money. This is what I want people to understand: this is our money. When you pay your taxes, that money is being stolen to pay for a vanity project like a ballroom, or to renovate the Kennedy Center, or whatever it is that this guy wants to do, instead of what it should be used for—paying for things that actually benefit you: better roads, health care, and more affordable groceries.

There were multiple votes tonight to make the $1.8 billion cop beater fund illegal and Republicans blocked every single one, paving the way for Trump to resuscitate his slush fund.

Todd Blanche is Trump’s frontman for the biggest pedophile coverup in American history.

I was told he would bankrupt the city and destroy everything.

Anyone think it’s odd that every event is just a bunch of sycophants standing behind an immobile president pretending it’s normal?
