This made me so angry I have to not actually say what it made me think.

no words.

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

Elon Musk alternates between pure nihilism and pure malevolence After two years of him retweeting Good Dad memes posted about him by others, we discover that unless he can use a child of his as a prop he is simply not interested This is the guy telling everyone to have as many children as possible

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

You know this is 100% going to happen…

“If DOGE is a federal agency, it can’t shield its records from the public. If it’s not an agency, then DOGE’s tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend.” www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Venetian prosecutors reportedly opened an investigation into Donald Trump Jr.

Dear World, I apologize. We have a Russian asset in the White House. Trump stands with Putin. He doesn’t stand with Ukraine, NATO or the free world. Many, many, many of us Americans apologize profusely for this. Sincerely, A Ukraine-Supporting, NATO-Supporting American

Here's a riddle:

Comin’ at’cha!! apnews.com/article/medi...

"USAID's funding is roughly 0.3 % of total federal spending. That’s quite a bargain, considering the vital role USAID plays in sustaining America’s 'soft power.' It’s no wonder Trump hates USAID. After all, MAGA only appreciates hard power." by @playtyperguy.com www.publicnotice.co/p/usaid-dest...

It’s a conundrum. 🤷‍♂️

Kash Patel is a dangerous conspiracy theorist who will make Americans less safe. But you don't have to take our word for it. His former Republican colleagues are calling him unqualified and unfit. Tell your senators to vote no on Kash Patel.

Reinstate once again by Trump. Trump is losing control of his Presidency!!!!!!!

"working to swiftly rectify the situation..." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

The two men cutting flight safety never fly commercial.

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA. Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

Don't worry, the smart Americans are booing our anthem right now too. We get it. Oh boy, do we get it.

After we were attacked on Sept 11th, the whole country rallied together! Why are we, as a nation, divided over a 5 time draft dodger who sold our nations secrets and charged with espionage?! How could someone like this split us in half?!

It’s nice that the Target founder’s heirs oppose canceling DEI & sidelining Black-owned products, but they don’t run the company—and Target has made its stance clear. @Target.com: There’s nothing you sell that I can’t find elsewhere. I don’t shop where I’m not welcome. You’ve already been replaced.

It’s the reality TV show/Instagram cabinet, featuring the Transportation Secretary heading to a car race in FL while Kentucky was a disaster site with at least 9 people dead.

You dumbfucks said Biden wasn’t “really in charge” and then you handed Trump’s presidency to Elon fucking Musk?

National Nuclear Security Administration officials on Friday attempted to notify some employees who had been let go the day before by the Trump administration that they are now due to be reinstated — but they struggled to find them because they didn't have their new contact information.

Because of DOGE, countless Americans are going to die.

And on FOX NEWS, no less.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

The Trump administration, which has been anti-EV, is buying EVs from the company controlled by the guy overseeing wasteful government spending and possible misuses of taxpayer dollars: www.npr.org/2025/02/13/g...

This is unreal. From best of friends to pariah state in three weeks.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

This can't be legal either, next lawsuit

I remember when Attorney General Pam Bondi said she'd protect federal whistleblowers in her confirmation hearing. Now they're being threatened with illegal "discipline, including dismissal."

USAID is funded by Congress and you sit on the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, you utter dunce. Someone needs to get Anna Paulina Luna some help. The other day she wanted to bring in dead people to testify. 🤦‍♀️
