Seattle port commissioner: "We currently do not have any container ships at port right now.” So by Trump’s logic this means we’re making money?

U.S. trade deficit by month for the last 3 years. Yes, Trump and his supporters are literal Nazis. They're also clowns. Stupid and incompetent, enabled in their brutality by a billionaire class that doesn't mind brutality as long as it permits them to continue to steal.

I’m all for Democratic House Rep. Jasmine Crockett for the Dem. ranking member of the House Oversight Committee. AOC needs to focus on running for the Senate.

As if we didn't already know what is going on; but, in case you didn't know, here is a good article. Remember, The Guardian has left the shithole of X. Urge, or outright shame, the rest to follow. #TheAlliedForces www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

First Germany said NO to fascism and Trumpism. Then Canada said NO to fascism and Trumpism. And now Australia has said NO to fascism and Trumpism. The people of the world are speaking with their votes and we want democracy not authoritarianism. #SheShed

A heavy cost to us, but liberals in Canada and Australia have now won election because of rage at American Nazis.

The past 250 years have been a long, loud argument between Rousseau and Voltaire, the noisiest episode coming when the Nazis and the Reds duked it out on the Eastern Front 1941-45. Rousseau is in the ascendant in DC these days.

Thunderbolts is a solid B, B+. The people convinced Marvel has lost the thread won't agree, but they were always wrong. Florence Pugh deserves all the praise that she's been getting. There's a level of emotional realism in this that is almost unique in cape movies.

Naziism is a basic failure mode of humans. We will never be free of it. All you can do, generation by generation, is be vigilant. The billionaires are intent on destroying democracy, and unless they're taxed to death, will.

Our entire profession is under attack. Any scientist, in any field, is a target. Ideologues hate and fear the idea of objective reality. Stay strong, my friends. 🧪👊
