Sure you can. They control the information space. They control most of the media now. They have the biggest megaphone and the greatest reach. Noem’s DHS response will get reported first. Way, way down below the fold is where you’ll find the truthful rebuttal. And it’ll be couched as a ā€œclaimā€.

As the leader of the democrats in the senate, isn’t it his job - that we pay him for - to stand up and speak to the press? Demand action against Noem? But no, he’s gone awol - again. Like every American, I’m paying for this senile waste of taxpayer dollars. Thank fk for AOC…!

True. The Dem leadership is playing by yesterday’s rules. If there’s anything to salvage from US democracy at this point, they better pull their fingers out… and stop writing fucking letters. Oh, and please get rid of Chuck Schumer.

As an atheist, I applaud this move. In fact, I’d suggest these guys accompany immigrants every day.

It was a pathetic and weak questioning of this drunkard. Come on Dems, is this seriously the best you can do. Baldwin let this drunk, know-nothing blowhard off the hook. FFS… fight back, goddam it!

Ain’t that the truth…!!

lol. Great comeback Governor… and so true.

Excuse me, but where is Chuck Schumer or Kirsten Gillibrand? Don’t they represent all the citizens of NY? Or is it time for another sternly-worded letter Chuck?

Next step in project 2025 is to call Dems, ā€˜enemies of the people’. They will hammer that message on all media. Next, they’ll be ā€˜forced to remove dems from office, for the sake of the country’. Followed by their arrest. GOP has then crossed the the rubicon into dictatorship.

I hope Newsom is looking at withholding federal taxes and is in talks with Canada…
comment in response to post
OK... this is getting seriously out of control now. We have a drunk in charge of the DoD [and no, I understand NSA or ICE are monitoring these posts], who himself is threatening to invoke martial law. WTF? I'm an immigrant and this was my country too [yes, I said, 'was'].

lol. New Yorker here, now living in Europe… and YES this is my response every single frikkin’ morning.

However accurate the survey was isn’t terribly important. The intent of NOAA and NWS is not to turn a tidy profit, it’s to provide citizens with life-saving and accurate information… or put another way, provide a service.

Wow… I wonder how long he’s got left in his job, once trump gets to hear about this?

I agree with that. She needs to be doing science, somewhere. I can tell you the UK and EU would love to have her expertise and skills furthering science, but here in Europe.

Well, you’ve got my vote… oh wait, I forgot, I’m not an elected democrat.

Mine was my local public library… I was there so often, they were going to make me an honorary librarian.

Probably never going back home to Brooklyn. The two happiest moments in my life: 1) marrying my partner, and 2) getting my Green Card*. *Turned into naturalisation several years later.

Anglo-American and Brooklyn-born partner. We sold our house of 19 yrs in Brooklyn and bought in the UK. Doubt we will ever go back home.

The Guardian reports: in the UK, a record number of Americans have applied for ā€˜Permanent Leave to Remain’ (similar to a green card). And that’s in the last 3 months alone. Immigration lawyers say numbers are increasing every week. They point to political unrest in the US. And that includes us.

My dad fought with the LRDG in North Africa, then invaded Sicily, before landing at Normandy. Then parachuted into the middle of an entire SS Panzer division in Arnhem… rescued by Dutch resistance. His unit went on to liberate Bergen-Belsen. A 5’ 7ā€ badass who knew how to kill fascists.

Six years (sept ā€˜39 - aug ā€˜45). 50+ million dead, tens of millions displaced, cities and infrastructure destroyed.

It’s the cone of shame, duh.
comment in response to post
How? We obliterated their cities with high explosives and incendiaries in day & night air raids, killed their leaders, and eventually prosecuted & jailed the survivors. The result? Over 50 million dead, the country in ruins. Then we poured tons of money into it to build a thriving democracy.

Hmm. Adobe creative suite is identical cost-wise across platforms. I had to work on both too. I worked in advertising (an art director). The reason every single agency I worked for in NYC uses Macs: Build quality, ease of use, MacOS easier to fix (according to my IT depts).

Same phone, but with a MacBook Pro M3. I’m good for the next few years.

It’s true, Harvard is the institution not the place. However, as the oldest university in the US, it has deep connections to Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Fuck.

I’m not blocking him, yet. But I’m no longer following his feed. The fact Booker defended Kushner’s despicable actions at trial (which I didn’t know about), shocks me. I know, I know… Jersey politics. But fuck me, where’s his moral compass, and ethics?
