Scott Pelley reminds us of Maya Angelou's words: You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise... Leaving behind nights of terror and fear, I rise Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear, I rise, I rise...

This morning, like every morning, US President will wake up: paint his face orange, clip on his comical wig, put on a big floppy tie & oversized suit & weird platform shoes, and will go out in the world to steal as much money has he can while undermining US national security & economy & democracy.

After my post on vaccinating my children when they were babies, I got asked to have ‘nuanced’ convos with antivaxxers. No. I’m not platforming lies that led to the drop in vaccines, sick children with lifelong impacts and dead children. Vaccines save lives and protect health. Period.

I’m sending out a check next week to Humane Borders for another year of adopting a water barrel in the Sonoran Desert. 100% of support from my Substack is going to this barrel. I’ve personally visited this barrel with their crew. It is saving lives! Thank you. www.humaneborders.org

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

The Trump regime canceled Moderna’s contract to develop a bird flu vaccine, saying it “was not scientifically or ethically justifiable”. This is not just a RFK Jr anti-vax crusade. This entire regime does not care about human life. These fascists are content with mass death.

Another article about the “razor blade throat” covid variant that’s caused an increase in hospitalizations across Asia Article doesn’t use its nickname & says only a few cases have been detected in US Testing & monitoring has been largely dismantled. We don’t have good line of sight Wear a mask:

I can’t stop laughing about the fact that the Pope is now holding a huge event in Chicago on the same day as Trump’s small-in-the-pants birthday parade.

Someone alert Jake Tapper, Trump had a very difficult time understanding questions from a reporter yesterday. A change of topic really confused him and it took him a while to catch up. Seems like this should be a pretty big story.

Rape—as an act of domination that symbolically annihilates the personhood of the target and elevates the attacker to a Godlike position of sadistic power—is the paradigm from which conservatives elaborate their worldview.

Trump's greatest con: convincing millions that demolishing the United States and disregarding the constitution is somehow patriotic and that hate, cruelty and stupidity are somehow politics.

One might have thought that last November, when Missourians voted to enshrine “reproductive freedom" in the state constitution, that would have been the end of the conversation. Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen. This week, the court halted abortions.

I just think there needs to be more attention paid to the uniquely creepy, mendacious, awfulness of Speaker Mike Johnson. Don’t underestimate the depth of his ambition and breadth of what he is willing to do to never return to Shreveport.

For starters, Democrats need to actually field a candidate against Mike Johnson, unlike the 2022 and 2024 campaigns when they let him run unopposed. The odds of unseating him will be long, but use the campaign to put him on defense and make our version of Pierre Poilievre sweat a little.
