Everyone should know that Social Security is massively efficient. It's the most efficient program we have. Its overhead is only 0.5%. Cutting Social Security staff will do nothing to improve that and only result in problems with people getting the payments they are legally owed.

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

Viruses and pathogenic bacteria do not care about your race, age, sex, socioeconomic or political leanings. They just want to infect you, and make more of themselves, and maybe kill you in the process. Get yourself vaccinated to protect yourself and those around you!

I’m inclined to believe this. Those people aren’t religious it’s about greed and power/control over the population.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

The announcement of the February meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) was retracted the moment Trump took office. RFK Jr. has refused to allow them to meet since he took over. Health insurance must cover vaccines that they recommend. www.statnews.com/2025/02/20/a...

Really impressed with how JB Pritzker is taking on Trump. This is the way.

It's stupidity now.

I rounded up a bunch of local reporting on what cuts to agencies like the National Parks Service and the Forest Service could mean for public lands. We may never be able to draw a direct line between the decimation of the civil service and future catastrophes. But the consequences are inevitable.🌎🧪

Not to flex but anyone who followed Elon's hyperloop arc saw this coming a mile away. He said he could save 90% over high speed rail by ... buying land cheaper. That was it, he never offered any further specifics and the media utterly failed to convey how much of a charlatan he was.

There you have it. We've been infiltrated.

It's largely a TV character-based dystopia at this point

Agreed!! We're a nation of laws. We adhere to civic law and we expect our leaders to lead with the American peoples constitution at all times. Otherwise, we have a colossal mess as is exhibited currenly.

As children die because of anti-vax lies in the months and years ahead, I hope people will print out news stories about their deaths and mail them to the offices of those 52 Senate Republicans who voted for RFK Jr.

A huge decision from Judge Amir Ali, meticulously reasoned and utterly scathing, finding that Trump’s foreign aid freeze is almost certainly an illegal and arbitrary abuse of power. He orders the immediate restoration of all international assistance. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

This kinda choked me up

A billionaire is hoarding Gov’t contracts, orchestrating the firing of countless, while simultaneously stripping the masses of the benefits and programs that support and protect them. It’s fucking maniacal. He is evil.
