The cowardice of the GOP has been astounding 👇 #TraitorTrump

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

Just gonna leave this here. 😒

The entire business model of American R1 universities is not viable without restoration of federal funding, & every individual institution pretending it can solve this problem alone is also not viable. University presidents need to be speaking out, collectively & loudly about this, in DC, right now.

UPDATE: Nearly 100 migrants, recently deported by the United States to Panama where they had been locked in a hotel, were loaded onto buses Tuesday night and moved to a detention camp on the outskirts of the jungle, several of the migrants said. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

God Smite The King.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Our military will soon be asked to make a very stark choice. There will be mass unrest in this country as these disastrous changes take effect. Trump will invoke the insurrection act at some point. You will be ordered to inflict violence on your fellow citizens. Think through this before it happens.

i feel like it's an open question whether or not the flu vaccine will even be available next season

Holding space for fascism

That book about that town in New Hampshire that tried to stick to libertarian ideals and got overrun by bears and pedophiles, but that town is now the whole country and the bears are just more pedophiles.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

new video up about our constitutional crisis youtu.be/aBVGmDaQRbE

we might get a bonus march situation soon enough

We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes. Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed. We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

Thank you! A U.S. District Judge has approved requests from anonymous federal employees to proceed under pseudonyms in multiple cases against the Trump administration to protect themselves from potential harassment and threats.

Elon has 23 staffers. Once the dust settles, you’ll never find a job again. America will remember. Someone will take the fall—and we know exactly who to hold accountable. Stop the games. Quit hiding your names—it really doesn’t work.

Joke's on you Elon, my sweet Chinese spy got all the goods on me from Tiktok & Xiaohongshu #rednote #tiktok #muskcoup #databreach

If this happened in a Michael Bay movie it would've been laughed out & won a Golden Raspberry #strangerthanfiction #muskcoup #oligarchy

Just two weeks ago, everyone was screeching about China stealing all of our data through TikTok, but now Elon steals it and the MAGA crisis actors are OK with it? That's some fucking bullshit.

Yes. Republicans are racists.

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

No one voted for Elon Musk. An unelected billionaire is trying to raid the Treasury Department and take money from the American people. This is a constitutional crisis and we choose to fight. We’re taking action to stop the Trump-Musk power grab this week. Join us: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Choose your fighter! I'll take @aoc.bsky.social

Heard from inside the National Cancer Institute, part of NIH — travel through April is canceled. Purchasing with government card is frozen. All public comms are off limits. Can’t even submit abstracts to future meetings. Can’t submit *manuscripts* for publication. All hiring activity frozen. Fuck.

Now’s the time

CARTOON OF THE DAY

a message for anyone who said we were "overreacting" about the results of the 2024 election youtube.com/shorts/bJKLz...

HANNITY: “People who were violent with police - why did they get a pardon?” TRUMP: “They were treated so badly… they knew the election was rigged (nope) and they were protesting the vote… they were very minor incidents (nope)… would’ve been cumbersome to look at each case…”

Me- *watching my idiot cat roll around in a reusable grocery bag* My God. You’re so happy. You don’t even know who Elon Musk is. I envy your existence so much.

Making animated movies into live action: tiresome, unnecessary, lame Re-making every classic film into a muppet movie with a single human actor: sophisticated, erudite, revolutionary
