Wait, I’m just catching up. The Press Secretary thinks the Library of Congress lends books out to children?

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

"There was no access to a toilet, so guards told the women – whose accounts in some cases occurred on different days or different buses – to urinate or defecate on the floor... " www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Those dystopian books we read in school are looking less like fiction and more like a blueprint. No wonder they’re being banned—they want to keep us in the dark.

Trump is making another 911 more likely. His Gaza scheme is inflaming the Middle East. He’s gutting intelligence agencies, prioritizing loyalty over merit. FBI & CIA comms are in chaos. Weak intel means they may not see the threats coming. And w/political retribution as the focus—we’re wide open.

For the visual learners...

#Tuberculosis is curable! Tuberculosis is treated with antibiotics. To be effective, these medications need to be taken daily for 4–6 months. ⚠️ Stopping treatment early can lead to drug-resistant tuberculosis. Learn more bit.ly/3Vo428E #EndTB

A case of tuberculosis has been confirmed at a Michigan school. Just as the Senate considers an avowed anti-vaxxer to lead our nation’s health agencies.

Air traffic controllers were sent emails by the Trump administration urging them to quit their jobs and take mass “buyouts” just 24 hours after the D.C. plane/helicopter collision.

all you people who told us to calm down can go fuck yourselves

TikTok took it down, so let’s share the shit out of this reading list. #HolocaustRemembranceDay #NeverAgainIsNow #BookSky #StateMediaCensorship

The WH is coming at us fast & furious with big changes, abrupt policies & wild threats to wear us down. It’s the reverse of a frog boil-it’s not slow and steady-but that is what they want. Soon will come the gaslighting, manipulation & then the actual boil. It won’t ‘feel as bad’ this way. Be ready.

Setting quotas of arrests per day. You know what happens when you have a quota to meet? Scoop them up and let the court sort it out. They will be grabbing anyone they can. No proof of citizenship on your person? Too bad. That’s an arrest. Look “illegal?” Explain it to the court someday.

Trump just imposed a 25% import tax (i.e., tariff) on all imports from Colombia — the top supplier of coffee consumed in the United States. Since that tax will be passed along to American consumers, coffee prices are expected to rise dramatically.

The USAF removed Tuskegee Airmen & Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII from basic training curriculum. For 30 years I promised these women I would not let them ever be forgotten again. We worked for decades to have them remembered. The Airmen too. Knowledge is power. 🗃️ www.msn.com/en-us/societ...

Since the FDA can’t communicate with us, then I will help the government do their job. Subscribe to my Substack to get FDA recall alerts until their communication embargo is lifted. This is a matter of public safety. drrubin.substack.com/p/fda-recall...

Fucking outrageous! 🤬

MAGA better not bitch to me when Trump’s harsh immigration policies drive up their food prices.

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand. It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.
