Y’all need to mobilize. This ain’t going away.

Someone needs to explain to me how firing Jerome Powell - whether in Court or not - is not going to send the bond market sideways. I mean, okay, our danger is stagflation right now. And that was not even said.

If you sell things to the US you are tariff fucked. If you stop selling things to the US you are fine. So stop selling things to US. It is a withdrawal of the US from the global economy. This will suck but there is no incentive.

Welp, there goes the US defense industry.

So let’s be very clear about this - DOGE isn’t saving America money. It is now among the costliest domestic programs in our history; and certainly the most significant wealth destroying.

I always preferred "Aut inveniam viam aut faciam”

NEWS: A federal judge has ordered the urgent release of DOGE records, citing the office's "unprecedented" power and "unusual secrecy." Judge Cooper wants "rolling" productions of records to begin within weeks. Details TK ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Deregulated big tech has broken democracy

Every March, most Americans shift their clocks forward for daylight saving time. Studies show this change disrupts sleep and leads to measurable adverse outcomes, including a significant increase in heart attacks. (via @us.theconversation.com)

What a cover. @economist.com

In fairy tales, older wise women provide guidance and protection for heroes and heroines on their journeys.

Actually, some do. Sweet revenge 😏

I enthusiastically endorse Diane Seltzer for DC Bar President. The election is coming up soon. If you are a DC Bar member please make sure to vote for her!

The Dems had a shit deal. They should have walked out.

I really can’t.

I will say thank you while I commit to fighting against you for the next ten thousand years.

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach. www.tsunami.gov

L’anglais devient la seule langue officielle aux Etats-Unis, après un décret de Donald Trump

It would be good if the UK canceled Trumps visit. He’s an international pariah and a source of shame to all upstanding Americans

Just remembered that Luke Perry is dead.

“While it is not unusual to stop operations in the midst of high-level talks…the move comes as Trump has engaged in a startling reversal of 80 years of U.S. foreign policy, showing an apparent willingness to abandon European allies and make common cause with Putin…” 🎁🔗 wapo.st/4kjGtrI

More than 40,000 people have already signed the “No second state visit for Trump!” petition. King Charles III really needs to withdraw his invitation. @38degrees.bsky.social

Mississippi Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann told reporters last year that Medicaid expansion would have to wait for Trump to become president. But now uncertainty appears likely to delay expansion until at least 2026.

Times like today would be a perfect opportunity for to have a Democratic message war room in full motion from Congress blasting out the story of Trump/Vance/Putin's skullduggery. 🧵 (1/)

Attacking Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit is a MAGA obsession, and Brian Glenn, anchor of far-right channel Real America’s Voice, and partner of extremist politician Marjorie Taylor Greene, gleefully picked up on this today. Zelenskyy has long made clear he won't wear a suit until the war is over

Le texte de l’escalade verbale entre Trump, Vance et Zelensky dans le bureau Ovale

The USA doesn't have a government. It is ruled by a criminal gang allied with Putin.

If European nations weren’t already planning rearmament, they certainly will be now.

“What we’re witnessing is the self-sabotage of the United States.” @davidfrum.bsky.social on Trump and Vance’s detestable antics in the Oval Office. @theatlantic.com

I can't stand bullies. President Zelensky is now trying to stand up against two of them. We should have his back. #SlavaUkraïni

Anyone paying attention knows that Zelenskyy is grateful and has thanked the American people more than once. Trump wanted more than a thank you. He wanted Zelenskyy to grovel—at his feet.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Washington has become a clone of Moscow – a capital of fascist evil.

This is a terrible take. This was an opportunity for America. The world gives up on you. You are worthless. Is America powerful. Yes. Does the world need America. Yes. Will anyone think we are more than a clown country. No.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

Let it all come out. There will be a reckoning. Zelensky is a hero.

Trump and Vance are embarrassing fucks for treating Zelensky like shit. President Zelensky, you deserve far better treatment than this. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Vance mistook Ukraine for the Republican congressional caucus

Howls make the whole world smile 😊

Tiny 'water bears' may hold the key to reducing radiation-induced side effects. These animals are virtually indestructible and have long outlived the dinosaurs due to their ability to withstand extreme cold, heat, natural disasters and even cosmic radiation. healthimaging.com/topics/clini...

Elon Musk said USAID's "Ebola prevention" was "accidentally canceled" but "immediately" restored. Health specialists following the current outbreak in Uganda raise doubts about the restoration. www.npr.org/sections/goa...
