“It’s no coincidence, of course, that Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, happens to be a paid advisor to both Kalshi and Polymarket. The Trump family has profited handsomely from the president’s second term, with some estimates north of $4 billion since early last year.”

#woman from What Are You Really Afraid Of? Look them in the eye and tell them how Joe Biden wanted to codify reproductive rights, ensuring them forever, but he was old. So, you voted for the Party that has repeatedly said they would ban abortion, and some of whom want to repeal the right of women to vote! Or, (just as bad) you decided not to vote at all.

‘Under babied’ is a dystopian term. It removes men from responsibility and commitment. It sounds very sterile and detached. Dr. Oz sounds loveless.

Republican men see women as white baby-making machines. They want mothers to be on the verge of destitution. They envision desperate mothers as more controllable. These misogynist men are given way too much influence in conservative politics.

A man is holding a baseball and talking to a child holding a bat.

“Keep your eye on the ball—not on the mess the grownups have made of things.”

A rooster and a hen watch TV in a living room.

“When are we gonna get to the other side?”

A woman and a girl stand in a kitchen.

“The grownup version of ‘mewing’ is called ‘gritting your teeth.’ ”

 

 

A man and a woman watch TV in the living room.

People are already peddling ivermectin for Hantavirus. The same people had never heard of Hantavirus 3 days ago. We live in the dumbest possible timeline.

Angry (@angrystaffer.bsky.social) 2026-05-07T01:28:15.240Z

Everybody stay calm, the top virologists, medical research scientists, clinical researchers and clinical pharmacologists on Twitter have been working around the clock for two minutes and already discovered that Ivermectin cures the hantavirus.

Covie (@covie93.bsky.social) 2026-05-07T14:19:20.506Z

Right on cue. A new outbreak and immediate misinformation about “miracle cures.”Ivermectin is an antiparasitic drug, not a proven treatment for #hantavirus. Being an RNA virus does not mean ivermectin works against it.Promoting unsupported therapies during an outbreak causes real harm.

Those who cheered ivermectin as a Covid-19 treatment are now making unsubstantiated claims about its use against hantavirus.

New vein of Maga Moron stupid discovered in Texas. Dr Mary Talley Bowden who was reprimanded for treating COVID-19 without permission in Texas,now says the Hantavirus can be treated with ivermectin and that she will be selling it to Texans only without prescriptions.www.rawstory.com/mary-bowden-…

Was the Voting Rights Act created because Democrats established racist gerrymanders, as Rep. Byron Donalds said? No. The law targeted a range of discriminatory practices for voting such as literacy tests, poll taxes and violence.

The Trump administration is demolishing Social Security’s customer service, making it harder and harder for Americans to get their earned benefits. Now, Ted Cruz reveals the full scheme: They are wrecking Social Security so they can rob it.

Trump’s ONLY GOALS AS PRESIDENT –
1) Make a lot of money for himself, his family and his rich supporters – and use the presidency to get business deals for him and his sons around the world
2) Use the DOJ to go after literally anyone he feels slighted him, criticized him or “injured” him, while also covering up and erasing his past misdeeds (Epstein) and erasing the history of January 6
3) Slap his name and likeness on everything he can – cash, coins, buildings, airports, highways, and get royalties for the use of his name
4) Strengthen his ties to Vladimir Putin and other dictators and oligarchs to get as much power as much as he can
5) Going down as one of the great men of history, like Alexander the Great or Napoleon

Trump DOESN’T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT –
1) The basic job of a president
2) The economic well being of Americans
3) The functions of government to serve the people
4) America’s relationship with allies or reputation around the world
5) The United States if it doesn’t relate to him or his needs
