The shooter at Stoneman Douglas was MAGA.

The suicide bomber in Nashville was MAGA.

The shooter at the Pulse nightclub was MAGA.

Kyle Rittenhouse, who drove two states away to hunt people for sport was MAGA.

The insurrectionists who stormed the US Capital on January 6 were MAGA.

The murderer who killed a lady for flying a Pride Flag was MAGA.

The Jacksonville shooter who murdered three black people in a Dollar Tree was MAGA.

The guy who tried to assassinate Donald Trump was even MAGA.

It's not mental health.
It's MAGA.
MAGA is terrorism.

"More and more politicians have decided the only way to make America great is to abandon the things that made America great in the first place.

Dilbert holds the Guinness World Record for most hate crimes committed by a fictional character.

According to the Supreme Court, the president can pretty much do whatever he wants—as long as he’s a Republican. If the president is a Democrat, then anything they want to do is overreach. #SCOTUS #Politics

Texas is 25 million people living in a handful of cities, where basically all of the money is made, held hostage by Neo-Confederate politicians backed up by a mere 5 million rural voters whose districts dominate the legislature.

Judge Aileen Cannon is a district court judge, who is supposed to conduct trials according to established legal rules, including Supreme Court precedent. She is not empowered to decide questions of law however she pleases. When she ignores the Supreme Court decision in U.S. v. Nixon, she puts herself above the law as surely as Trump has tried to put himself above the law. 3/

Georgia #GOP district chair Kandiss Taylor says that the United States “was founded on Jesus Christ" and that "the idea behind [the #Constitution] was that the church runs the state."

She goes on to say, "I don't have to honor your #religion. I don't have to give you 'freedom' of religion. Freedom of religion is there for us to worship Jesus."

How The Hell Was Trump Allowed To Use Arlington National Cemetery As A Campaign Prop?

How come we never hear media report that in the year prior to 10/7—Hamas killed 250 Israeli civilians, kidnapped 800 Israeli kids, took 8000 Israelis hostage, & built more than 12,000 homes on Israeli land?

You know why?

Because Hamas did none of those things. In reality, in the year prior to 10/7, the Israeli Govt killed 250 Palestinian civilians, kidnapped 800 Palestinian kids, took 8000 Palestinians hostage, & built 12,000+ homes on Palestinian land.

But go on—pretend this all began 10/7.

I think I need to restart my service for people who miss twitter. For a small donation to the charity of MY choice (Mostly the ACLU, People for the American Way, etc) I will insult you and tell you what a cuck you are.

Every study ever: Overworked employees are less productive. Employees who work from home are just as productive as employees who work in the office. The evidence is indisputable.

Managers: I see. But I have a hunch that the complete opposite is true.

Well well! 💪🏼

The #Arizona Police Association just endorsed Rep. Ruben #Gallego over conspiracy theorist #KariLake in the Arizona U.S. Senate race.

Guys I'm starting to think the NYT might support the Nazis and isn't really "just looking for clicks" like I've been told.

Yesterday #RFKJr said he was endorsing #Trump because the Democrats support censorship. Today Trump wants to change the first amendment so that he can jail people for flag burning.

"200+ Bush, Romney, McCain Alums Endorse Kamala Harris"

Former staff of three prominent Republicans – Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, late Arizona Sen. John McCain and former President George W. Bush – have come out in support of the Harris-Walz campaign, according to a letter obtained by USA Today.

"We have plenty of disagreements with Vice President Harris and Gov. Walz. That’s to be expected,” the letter reads. “The alternative, however, is simply untenable."

The reality is that Twitter would have shriveled up into irrelevance by now if it weren't for all the journalists, academics, politicians, activists, celebrities, and other ostensible "liberals" or "progressives" who choose to remain active on that site. Sadly, they are more concerned with vanity and self-aggrandizement than they are all the harm they're actively causing by financially propping up and legitimizing Shit-for-Brains' nazi disinformation mill

Griffin:

In North Carolina just now, #Trump laid the groundwork to question the results of the 2024 election.

"Our primary focus is not to get out the vote. It's to make sure they don't cheat. Because we have all the votes we need."
