Watters: They trapped him in a cage. We call it a courtroom but it’s a cage and he’s like King Kong… And what happens with King Kong. You remember? It’s not going to be good, he’s going to bust out of his cage.

Ford: King Kong died

I quite literally could not think of anything less popular on the face of the earth than killing a puppy. What kind of human being…

Alito’s Response Would Be: “In 1864? Women Can’t Vote Let Alone Become President!”

Here’s a question Alito should be asked:

If a female President got an abortion during her term, could Idaho arrest her?

It’s For Messages Exactly Like This That The Phrase, “Eww, Man, TMI! TMI!” Was Coined

Elon Musk

Indistinguishable-from-human robot companions will be mainstream in 15-20 years, and yes, you will be able to have sex with them. A housewife who never nags. Beautiful and customized to your taste. No one belittling your weirdly-shaped dick and the “disgusting” way you make love

I Don’t Know All The Liars On The Planet, So I Couldn’t Say For Sure

CALL TO ACTIVISM
@CalltoActivism

Unbelievable. Donald Trump says Democrats support abortion AFTER nine months and alleges babies are executed.

Donald Trump is the BIGGEST LIAR on the planet!

Yes or No?

I’d Rather A Politician Talk About “Folks” Than “The Folk”

Republicans against Trump
@RpsAgainstTrump

Donald Trump: “These teleprompters are just gonzo, folks. They’re gonzo. I hate to use the use word ‘folks.’ Cross out the word ‘folks.’ Ever heard Biden? Every other word is ‘folks.'”

Trump is not well.

Ah, Well, That Makes Shooting It In The Face Much Better

Noem: Well, you know, how the fake news works. They leave out some or most of the facts.. I hope people buy the book and they find out the truth of the story because the truth is that this was a working dog and it was not a puppy.

Oh, Ye Of Little Faith!

The mainstream media’s coverage of the campus protests against the Gaza genocide is actually worse, more biased, more dishonest, than its coverage of the Gaza genocide itself, which I actually didn’t think possible.

You Think That’s A Reach? Wait For Trump’s Prosecution Of Biden For Cocaine Found Within A Twelve Mile Radius Of The White House
Now, THAT’S A Reach!

@highbrow_nobrow

Eric Trump: If my dad isn’t granted absolute immunity, then Joe Biden will be prosecuted for the cocaine that was found in the White House.”

He Is Assuming That The First 1,027 Times He Said It, Nobody Was Paying Attention…

Trump: If we don’t win this election, I don’t think our country is going to survive. I will say it and I’ve never said that publicly.

Trump says if he’s elected, he’ll implement “strong ideological screening” of all immigrants to the U.S.: “If you don’t like our religion…then we don’t want you in our country.”

What’s “Our religion”?

That’s How You Know Somebody Is Committed To A Culture Of Life

Right Wing Watch
@RightWingWatch

Christian nationalists Steve Cruz and Ben Zeisloft agree that any woman who gets an abortion “should be killed”; “She should be tried and convicted; dig a hole and put her down.”

Unbelievable Numbers Are Like Irrational Numbers, But With More Digits After The Decimal Place And Less Acid Reflux

@Acyn

Trump: You go back 10 years, Israel was protected by Congress. Now, Congress is just doing numbers that are unbelievable with I think a very very small group of people within Congress and it’s gotta stop

Okay, Actually, That Proves Nothing Because Even Newborn Babies Know That I Would Make Fun Of Him

Tucker Carlson tells Joe Rogen that Alex Jones is able to see the future because he’s a prophet who is channelling supernatural powers.

Some Facts Come From The Venezuela Of The Ass, People – We Call Them Venezuelan Ass Facts

Biden -Harris HQ
@BidenHQ

Trump: Venezuela announced 72 percent reduction in crime

Reporter: Sir, where are those numbers coming from?

Trump: Uhhhh… I guess I get them from the papers in this case… I think it’s a federal statement or… Well actually they’re coming from Venezuela

Reporter: I just fact checked that, it’s false

Gov. Kristi Noem claimed in her new book that she met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and “starred him down.”

On Thursday, Noem’s spokesperson acknowledged the two have never met and her story was false.

DeSantis to Hannity on Florida’s marijuana ballot measure: “The state would smell like it. We don’t need that in Florida.”

The No. 1 pro-Israel online talking point – ‘Hamas agrees to release the hostages & the war ends tomorrow! – destroyed by a single quote from an Israeli official:

“Israel will under no circumstances agree to end the war in a deal to release the hostages”

Weren’t You A Lawyer Once Upon A Time?

Dershowitz: They are trying to keep him in the court room against his will and preventing him from campaigning. He has the right to be in the courtroom. The government, the prosecution has no right to keep him in the courtroom.

No, Seriously, You Used To Be A Lawyer, Didn’t You?

Acyn
@Acyn

Dershowitz: I don’t think he’s going to get a fair trial. I think it’s possible he’ll get convicted in time for the election. It will have an impact on the election and then, the conviction will be reversed on appeal.
