I couldn't understand why the FBI was investigating Lindsey Graham's death—in the absence of any suspicious toxicology report in the autopsy—until I realized it gave Trump and his lawyer Kash Patel an excuse to enter Graham's house and remove potentially incriminating documents

He's been complaining about an election he lost for over half a decade. Meanwhile, your life is not any easier. What good is Trump? When he's not sleeping he's stealing, when he's not stealing he's breaking things or throwing your tax dollars away on a war or home renovations.

White supremacist, town drunk, and lifelong abuser of women Pete Hegseth continues his attacks against minority and female service members.

This time, he is implementing a new shaving rule that disproportionately affects Black men, resulting in their removal from the Department of Defense.

Full list of racist and sexist policies:

• Early 2025: Hegseth pushes for the elimination of “woke” diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs across all branches of the military, arguing they undermine readiness and unit cohesion.

• February 2025: Trump fires the Black Joint Chiefs Chair after Hegseth accuses him of promoting diversity initiatives.

• April 2025: Hegseth promises that military promotions under his tenure will be “color-blind and merit-based.”

• September 2025: Hegseth outlines “genderless” fitness, height, and weight requirements for the military, described as adopting the “highest male standards” in training.

• September 2025: The military announces new grooming standards with strict restrictions on braid styles, hair shaping, and nail length/polish that apply to both men and women.

• 2025–2026: Rollback of women-specific accommodations in combat roles and training pipelines, with emphasis on uniform physical standards regardless of gender.

• June 2026: Hegseth blocks the promotion of 3 female and 2 Black naval officers.

• Ongoing 2026: Increased scrutiny and reversals of race- and gender-based recruiting targets, with a stated focus on prioritizing combat effectiveness over demographic quotas.

• 2026: Broader reviews of military academies and leadership training to remove content perceived as promoting “critical race theory” or gender ideology.

• July 2026: The Navy updates shaving requirements in ways that remove sailors with certain skin conditions, disproportionately impacting Black men.

#BREAKING: Psaki: “Multiple outlets are reporting tonight that Donald Trump has essentially wiped out what is left of the US Election Assistance Commission that is a bipartisan commission that helps states and local officials run elections. They certify election equipment, they distribute federal election funds, they maintain the national mail voter registration form, they basically do a whole bunch of things that help elections across the country run smoothly. But as we have seen through his actions over and over and over again, Donald Trump does not want elections in this country to run smoothly, quite the opposite.”🤦‍♀️

I'm pretty sure this man is onto something. The political establishment does not want Americans to get along with people from other countries. It's more difficult to brainwash an informed population....

If this British man’s version of how the old orange nut sack ruined the USA’s 250th Anniversary doesn’t make you laugh í don’t know what will. 😂😂

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

This clip, from Larry David's new show "Life, Larry, and the Pursuit of Unhappiness" is one of his FUNNIEST ever.

Awesome to have Rob Reiner as George Washington in possibly one of his final on-screen performances.

Cameo by Kimmel is chef's kiss.
RIP, Rob Reiner.

There isn't much to add to this man’s post; he pretty much covered everything. White Christian Nationalists will never be okay with being exposed, which is why they hide their faces—it's the new Klan hood. #DemsUnited

They’ve arrested more people for touching the peeling paint at the Reflecting Pool than they’ve arrested from the Epstein files.

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

Taking a floating paint chip out of the Reflecting Pool is vandalism.

Smearing shit on the walls of the Capitol is patriotism.

Got it.
