Wut

Imagine if you’d been told a year ago that you’d be seeing headlines like this, you might not have believed it. You might have accused the person telling you this - me! - that they’re suffering from ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’. And yet:

Relax guys. The headline should have said dinosaur*fossil.* This is not the earth shattering news I thought it was.

The White House Deputy Press Secretary looked at this graph and thought "those grey bars are totally fine, everyone will understand that only the yellow ones are a problem".

The GOP will end the tax credits for peoples health insurance premiums if they have their chance FWIW. When it's health insurance tax credits for working people, GOP opposes. When it's tax cuts for elites with private planes & super yachts, the GOP says it doesn't cost anything

The court found that agents were instructed by DHS leaders to mine websites of Canary Mission and Betar, (two shady, right-wing Israel based organizations) to build lists of students whose constitutional rights they would violate. Read the whole thing here:

‼️‼️NEW POLL: Who is responsible for shutdown? (from Wash Post -- GOP + 17pts) Trump & GOP in Congress: 47% Democrats in Congress: 30% Not Sure: 23%

Looks like Elon’s mascot has had it with her.

Democrats win culture wars but want policy. Republicans win policy wars but want culture.

If the Democrats don’t cave on the government shutdown, Trump will fire lots of federal workers (which is also exactly what Trump did when the government was open)

Him not believing in any of the RFK shit just makes it all the worse.

The awards are meaningless, but trump deserves a meaningless award, but the committee is loser for not giving it to him, who lost, and they had a stellar brand for previously giving out meaningless awards to the right people, like Obama.

“BEING MEAN TO ME IS ILLEGAL” gets at the heart of modern American conservatism maybe more than any sentence in existence.

This is a blatant lie, and Secretary Noem knows it. There are well documented cases of ICE arresting U.S. citizens. It’s completely unacceptable – and DHS must be held accountable.

Remarkable.

Trump admits voters hold Republicans responsible for the shutdown and that Republicans cannot win without trump running - which he won't be in 2026 or 2028... Great news for Republicans all around.

the most dark woke thing of the night is the person who leaked jay jones' texts losing her delegate seat

To avoid a repeat of last night’s shellacking in the 2026 midterms, Republicans should: quit covering for pedophiles put America before Israel put farmers before corporations quit funding wars abroad reduce spending to control inflation quit attacking independent voices
