”Finland can’t solve the US egg crisis” The US has asked at least Finland, Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands for eggs amid the growing bird flu-induced egg shortage in the US. Responses have been rather lukewarm. The audacity of first imposing tariffs and then asking for help is kinda pathetic

Congratulations to @schumer.senate.gov! You own every illegal action trump, DOGE, and the Republican Party take between now and 9/30. You sold out the Democrats in the House, the people that voted for you, sane Americans, and even the insane ones. You took your one chance and blew it. Shame!

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Elon Musk should be nowhere near the federal government. Repost if you agree.

Why would we abandon the prosperous, democratic nations of Europe, our allies for one hundred years, to "partner" with weak, poor Russia, a longtime adversary and dictatorship currently in the middle of an unprovoked invasion of a neighboring state? Treason. It's treason

Let's say there's "waste" and "fraud" in the government. Well that’s why every department had an inspector general to find and stop it. But guess what? Trump fired most of these independent auditors who should be insulated from politics. None of this is about waste and fraud.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Should go without saying but the point of diversity in hiring is to find _better_-qualified candidates outside of stagnant social networks that don't reward merit, like the kind of network that would put an MTV personality with a marketing degree in charge of the Department of Transportation

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research. Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Good morning and Happy Wednesday to everyone who agrees that trump's bizarre fixation on taking Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada by force is all a distraction because he can't deliver his promise to lower prices. Donald is a deluded, demented, dumbass dipshit.

The Musk-Johnson government shutdown bill has been soundly defeated. MAGA extremists in the House GOP are not serious about helping working class Americans. They are simply doing the bidding of their wealthy donors and puppeteers. Unacceptable.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who wishes the media would grow a spine and learn to interview the lying piece of shit properly the way Barbara Walters did fearlessly back in the day. She was prepared for his lies and HANDLED him. Stop sanewashing his crazy bullshit.

The day America decided to ignore Jared Kushner's $2 billion from the Saudis, and put an insurrection-inciting convicted felon back in the White House, is the day I stopped giving a shit about any "moral high ground." I hope President Biden takes his "presidential immunity" out for a fucking spin.

Remember, they didn't cut Matt Gaetz loose because he paid a 17-year-old for sex. They cut him loose because too much evidence was coming out proving he'd paid a 17-year-old for sex.
