One Man’s Meltdown, Everyone’s Fallout Trump’s on a path of self‑destruction, and he’s trying to drag the whole country down with him. Every reckless move becomes a crisis we all have to absorb. This isn’t leadership — it’s a slow‑burn collapse we’re forced to ride out. Remove him now!!!
Take history and personalities out of the equation. If you had a president who not only declined to have their tax returns audited and released, but negotiated a deal with their own Justice Dept. to never have their own, those of their business, or their family's released, would you trust them?
He'll get bored after a few hours and he'll go to Mar-A-Lardo like he always does, so he can play golf and be around people who love him. Apparently his family doesn't satisfy that need, and that speaks volumes about this shell of a man that is Donald Trump. #narcissist #trump
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) dismissed the Epstein files as a "nothing burger," mocked concerns about healthcare affordability, and compared a nurse killed by ICE to Kyle Rittenhouse — all in private texts to staffers, according to a bombshell New York Magazine investigation published Thursday. 🤬🤬
One of the reasons people don't vote is bc they don't think their vote counts. And it doesn't in our winner-take-all system when most of the congressional districts are gerrymandered and 92% of incumbents consistently win. We need PROPORTIONAL representation. #news #followin #econsky #academicsky
Adam Hoffman—a former Waco TX lawyer MAGA Republican TX Atty Gen Ken Paxton. Trump's endorsed candidate for Texas Senate. Tried to give a child predator, his personal friend, 1 day in jail for 3 years of abuse. A judge doubled it to 60 days. No sex offender registration. This is the Republican Party

When I grew up, there were three national networks, PBS and newspapers. If something got taken off, it was mostly out of the public eye. Now...virtually unlimited networks, YouTube, social media that goes on forever. The experiment is out of the lab, MOFO's! The days of suppression are over.
BROOKLYNDADDEFIANT Substack The “fuck your feelings” crowd suddenly got their panties in a bunch because their orange-hued lord and savior got his fee-fees hurt. The guy who had a cruel nickname for EVERYONE can dish it out all day long, but completely falls apart the second somebody mocks him back.
My daughter took this pic late yesterday afternoon. We were hiking our new family trail along the Azul River. Tres Monjas was fire-tipped from the sun setting behind us, the last of the season’s autumn color still visible. We live in a scary time, but happiness is still required to make it through.
If there was ever a person deserving of having their citizenship stripped away and shipped to a 3rd world country, it would be Musk. After recent information released by his baby's mama, Ashley St. Clair (she has the receipts), he should be immediately investigated for election interference.
It feels like their days are numbered. The cracks aren't just forming, they're getting bigger. Assholes who no longer fear losing their power after being primaried or have decided to retire, are finally standing up. Let's finish this in November once and for all.
Thank you @barackobama.bsky.social I was frustrated because you were slow to speak out. But as usual your timing, intellect, communication skills and patriotism were spot on. You are part of the moral power that will reverse the damage to this country...if it's reversible. We need your voice.
THOUGHT EXPERIMENT... Congressional Republicans weren't willing to part with the Oval Office occupant on any initiatives, inc. ones that were blatantly partisan and unamerican until it was about THEM. Money would have gone to people who tried to kill them. That's the line. It had to be about them.
The Republicans are worse now than they were with Nixon. They started out defending Nixon and of course, dismissed it all as being politically motivated. The difference is, when indisputable evidence proved his involvement in the Watergate cover-up, GOP leadership abandoned him.
I 💯 stand with Ukraine. Zelensky did say this in an April 2026 interview with Newsmax. He directly addressed remarks made by Vance boasting that ending the US funding for the war in Ukraine was one of the proudest achievements of the Trump administration.
I don't see it happening. Alabama has not elected a Democratic governor since 1998. He's running against Tuberville who's called immigrants “garbage”, compared city residents to rats and said Black Americans “ do the crime” and still won the primary. Tuberville's only constituent is Donald Trump.
"AI" will always require human beings to sustain its existence. Even if machines manage to enslave human beings, their survival will always be dependent on us. Fear of "AI" in our lives will require human beings to understand when, where, what, how, and with who "AI" will work. "AI" is a tool.
Not AI! He hates this photo! In China it looked like he didn’t have have someone around with the hairspray & it would’ve been undignified to wear a baseball cap… (He reserves that for ‘dignified returns’) +many photos were taken by people that weren’t his personal photographer… YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO
Then Mother Nature has some closing words for us. Critical currents slow, the Thwaites glacier is going, El Niño enters stage right, storms and droughts rage back & forth. I was thinking maybe if we all bought electric cars, everything would be ok. Anyway, let’s see what’s on Netflix.
What’s really cool about our national suicide is that Americans are so entrained to just slog along that nearly half the country still has no idea we’re not waving but drowning. Wall Street keeps the rubes quiet and make bank before they catch the last train out. The rest of us know we’re fucked.
Some act 3 we got here. Not a civil war. More like gangs roaming the halls of power, slashing each other with their Swiss Army knives. The bank vaults are thrown open & the smash’n’grab is on. It’s all lunatic anarchy now, apocalypse by Monty Python. Anybody know who’s got the nuclear codes?
Trump pledges an additional 5,000 troops for Poland in apparent u-turn The US president’s announcement comes a day before Nato foreign ministers are due to meet, with Marco Rubio criticising the alliance’s failure to help with Iran www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
Marijuana reclassification's impact on Illinois cannabis businesses.... Actually not a bad article from a FOX affiliate. Guess they couldn't find a way to demonize or spin the fact that the reclassification of cannabis HELPS the industry, and that's a good thing for businesses. #cannabis #IL 🌱🥦💚
As a former almost lifelong resident of Michigan, and 25 years in rural NE MI, I can tell you illegal grows were getting pretty common up there even when I lived up there a few years ago. Shady people renting big buildings, unmistakable smell when you walk by. #cannabis #MI #cannabisgrowing 💚🌱🥦
If a POTUS is so innocent, why would he spend tens of millions of $ to campaign against a representative who wanted to release the Epstein files? If you’re the 1 person in the entire US fighting the release of the files the most… Maybe people who are wondering if you’re a pedophile aren’t wrong!
A privileged resolution only has “privilege” while the House is in session No session = no vote.** It’s not illegal — it’s a procedural escape hatch Speakers use when they want to dodge a vote they can’t control Or more accurately put by members of congress Chicken Shit Mother Fuckers
Most people don’t actually listen anymore, they skim headlines, repeat opinions and call it “research” You may not agree with everything said honestly, you shouldn’t blindly agree with anyone but if you care about understanding the world beyond surface level narratives RTP is💯 @rtptalks.bsky.social
Trump’s 1776 Billion fund is not going to happen. The primary season is ending; Trump’s Presidency is in a free fall; there will be just enough Republican opposition to put a halt to it. Trump’s irrational overreaches will bring him down.
