Rep. Nehls: “If Donald Trump says jump 3 feet high and scratch your head, we all jump 3 feet high and scratch our heads.”

So much for checks and balances.

Elon Musk Puts His Imprint on the Trump Transition at Mar-a-Lago He’s on the patio. He’s on the golf course. Everywhere Donald Trump looks, there is the world’s richest man.

Let me state this is bluntly as I can, as a biographer of both Donald Trump and Elon Musk: Vladimir Putin is now inside the U.S. government, with visibility into absolutely everything. He has that access through Trump, Musk, and David Sacks.

We are fully infiltrated. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/13/u...

Short thread

So many are smugly celebrating the thought of Musk slashing & burning government departments because it they think it won't affect them.

They really haven't thought it through.

Many private businesses will go bankrupt as they lose Government contracts.

Do I get this right?
The Democrats 'lost the working class' because they'll help you buy a house, have a child or start a business.

There’s No Denying It Anymore: Trump Is Not a Fluke—He’s America The United States chose Donald Trump in all his ugliness and cruelty, and the country will get what it deserves.

Elie Mystal, with feeling:

“A country that allows its environment to be ravaged, its children to be shot, its wealth to be hoarded, its workers to be exploited, its poor to starve, its cops to murder, and its minorities to be hunted doesn’t really deserve to be ‘saved.’ It deserves to fail.”

We're going to take over this place the same way we took over threads: by building up all of you

First, hit the like button, reply with #NoDemUnder1k, and most importantly, hit the REPOST button.

Then follow each other back. The easiest way to do so is to follow everyone who reposts.

Here's how:

Check out our new generation of Dem Senators ready to get to work for the people!

(L-R Senators Lisa Blunt Rochester, Adam Schiff, Elissa Slotkin, Andy Kim, Ruben Gallego, Angela Alsobrooks)

One thing I think people need to be aware of is the absolute torrent of bullshit we are about to see.

Pay attention to what else is happening when the big distracting things - deportations, etc. - start.

They’re going to try to flood the zone and ram it all through at once.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott to have season-ending hamstring surgery - UPI.com Veteran quarterback Dak Prescott will undergo season-ending surgery to repair his injured hamstring, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones announced Tuesday.

He will have [surgery] tomorrow," Jones said. "He'll have it there in New York. He wants to do that there. He's got great medical doctors up there. It's a more common injury in hockey. And he's got doctors who are very familiar with how to repair that, and his prognosis is wonderful.

When you stink as an attorney apparently you fail in the usual direction—downward—and become window-dressing at the equivalent of a strip-mall circus

The sad part about this meme is that gas was already cheap when her parents doomed her to sepsis

All empires crumble.

Thanks for the warm welcome. 🤗
