Fuck this app and what it has become. I’m out.

When you bitches are paying $18 for eggs and being paid pennies working in the fields because there’s no one else to do it, and your kids work factory jobs because there is no school to attend and shit like leprosy comes back, I hope you’ll remember how hard you owned the Libs.

So when Trump fires all non-partisan career professionals in government, replaces them with radical loyalists within every nook and cranny of the US government, and adds radical judges everywhere. And every one of you that voted for him finally wake up from your fucked up fantasy just like the folks that woke up after 4 years of the last shit show, only to realize it’s much much worse, and much more permanent, this time. When the cancer you caused has infected every bit of the American system and it can’t be unwound for a lifetime. What then? Do you beg this country for forgiveness for choosing fascism because you were conned into believing your eggs are too expensive because of Joe Biden? You just put Steve Bannon in charge of American policy. You just put Michael Flynn in charge of our military. You just put Alex Jones in charge of media and propaganda. You just put Stephen Miller in charge of immigration policy. You just put batshit crazy RFK Jr. in charge of health policy. You just killed free public education and privatized schools, which you will have to pay for. You just sealed the deal on a national abortion ban, because you’re demented if you think it’s not coming. You just radicalized the Supreme Court for a generation. You just made women less safe and less free. You just made this country an oligarchy with the billionaires quite literally in charge now. You just put in office the one person that believes a president is a king, with the fucking Supreme Court ruling to prove it in his back pocket! You just ushered in Fascism. Because your cereal costs more. Congratulations.

“@elonmusk endorsed me — full-throated.” — @realDonaldTrump Quote of the year. 😂😂😂 #BlueWave2024 #trumpnewsconference

Hot take: Jesus loves drag queens as much as you and me. Get over it. #OlympicsOpeningCeremony

Every school shooting deserves this kind of unified anger and condemnation. Every mass shooting deserves this kind of unified outrage. Our kids in our schools deserve this kind of solidarity. The perpetual gun violence in our country deserves unified opposition and action.

But he didn’t intervene at Uvalde? Your god sucks.

Hey @marcorubio, are you saying that God did not protect my daughter and the other 16 killed who you represented in Parkland. Wow!!!

If you believe God intervened to save former President Trump, but didn’t intervene to save the kids in Uvalde or Parkland or Santa Fe or Sandy Hook, then you are worshipping partisan politics, not Jesus.
