“Conservatives love to cut funding and then point to struggling services as evidence of government failure. When they do this, they're executing ‘strategic defunding’ or ‘starve the beast’ governance. We should explicitly name this cycle and expose it.” - @george-lakoff.com

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

I blame the people that are still in denial. Who say they don't read the news because it's too depressing. The people that feel privileged enough to remain blissfully unaware, but don't take the responsibility that comes with the privilege. If you are privileged, you have a civic duty to stand up.

Canada and Greenland, can you please pretend-join us, so that we can vote these Republican asses out, and reverse all this damage? We'll let you go back after with the highest hero's honor, and our gratitude forever.

I suppose it’s time to talk about this… and game out the potential consequences… if trump were to actually try to take Greenland by force. First and foremost, Greenland is a territory of Denmark, a NATO ally. So, this would mean a declaration of war against Denmark, and by proxy, against NATO. +

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed. No one knows why he was detained.

If you don't get vaccinated, you are risking the lives of people around you. It is NOT a personal decision. You SHOULDN'T get to have the right to risk the people around you.

A little over 3 weeks. That’s how long Trump is giving transgender American service members to exit their careers. 3 weeks until their world will be turned upside down for being deemed unfit to serve the country simply for who they are. I can’t wait for his demise. www.advocate.com/news/trump-t...

By cutting funding for USAID Elon Musk and Donald Trump are probably condemning one million children to die of starvation 200,000 to be paralyzed because they’ll likely contract polio And up to 18 million cases of malaria per year Which could cause another 166,000 deaths Pure unadulterated evil

I’m sorry but this isn’t getting enough attention. When RFK Jr. was asked about a young child who died of measles in Texas, he responded “It's not unusual. We have measles outbreaks all the time.” This is the first Measles death in the US in 10 years.

DOGE has gone on a rampage for a month, cutting thousands of jobs, killing programs, gutting agencies and creating a mess. All to save a whopping...wait for it... $2B in the end. 😬 search.app/rtraTzTG38gv...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

If Elon Musk were to testify to Congress about the "waste, fraud, and abuse" he claims DOGE is finding, he'd be publicly shamed for claiming social security checks going to people 150 years old. He and his teen incel MAGA virgin hackers would be exposed as not only criminals, but as idiots.

On his death bed he will find that even with all the money in the world, he turned out to be bankrupt. In his soul. In his heart. Even with all the kids he has, he will have none to hold his hand.
