Unbelievable. What a pathetic loser.

😳

Also defunded education and declared ketchup was a vegetable as far as school meals were concerned. The high levels of ignorance in the US today are also a direct result of Reagan era policies.

Some good news amidst all the craziness in the world. Net zero industries are good for economic growth and the environment. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

General CQ Brown is a patriot and hero. Firing him makes America less safe, but it will help bring about a Golden Age. For Putin.

US and global public health are in for a rough ride as CDC and other major agencies are eviscerated. Epidemic outbreaks will go unmonitored and unreported- and who will be the most harmed? Almost everyone, esp Trump supporters who believe misinformation.

No one wants to be remembered the way we now view Deborah Birx, she who sat quietly while Trump urged the nation to drink bleach during Covid. We all want to be Anthony Fauci- standing up to lies and protecting US population health. Too many more Birxs being created at the moment.

What the USA will lose in scientific expertise the rest of the world will gain. The UK and Europe will welcome researchers and scientists with open arms esp in life sciences. If the US gov wants to fall way behind others that’s on them. Time for other countries to entice top scientists to them.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

#NotMyPresident. Ever - when do the general strikes begin?

💯% this. Cutting aid completely counter productive to boosting national security, addressing the climate crisis and tackling pandemics, amongst other things. Musk/Trump is putting American lives at risk along with the lives of the world’s poorest. We must hit the streets as Georgians have done.
