Not looking too good, time for massive sustained protests

The right for autistic people with intellectual disabilities (and other disabled people) to live outside of institutions was only granted by the US Supreme Court in 1999.

This is naked corruption that uses federal policy to pour money into the pockets of the President's largest campaign donor. Forcing the nation's 70-some million Social Security recipients to sign up for the website owned by a Nazi saluting billionaire is outrageous.

One of the many things that I will never forgive Trump for is making me agree with Rand Paul on something

The vast majority of Iowa students attend public schools, but Republican lawmakers continue to prioritize their private school voucher scheme over adequate funding for our public schools.

Under this theory, there is also nothing that prevents them from shipping *American citizens* to a gulag in El Salvador and saying "nothing we can do."

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Tariffs like these raise prices and don't work. But if you skipped class the day we all learned that – here's a refresher:

A reminder to reporters: Because Trump tariff numbers are made-up nonsense, using the phrase “reciprocal tariffs” is lying to your audience. The phrase itself is propaganda. They are not reciprocal.

Today's tariffs brought to you by the guy who thought the stealth fighter was actually invisible, wanted to nuke hurricanes, told everyone to inject bleach, thought Seoul's population is 35 million because Wikipedia said its elevation is "35m," and looked directly at the sun during an eclipse.

This was a choice. Fine won by 8 pts in the district Mike Waltz won by 30 pts just 5 months ago. That the NYT frames it as “easily won” is a leading reason we are where we are. Headlines matter. Framing matters.

They actually hate children. Children are just something to weaponize against women.

THEY'RE CALLED MUPPETS NOT MONSTERS

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself. He is his own ponzi scheme.

season grade: A outlook grade: A+ If Dusty isn't leaving for Indiana, he's not leaving for a minute, and the guy put together a S16 team that got a banner out of two guys on the roster. LFG.

Blew a 9 point lead, now down 9 Michigan has them where they want them

Plan for 2nd half, keep it a stupid game

Well that was an interesting half of basketball

Arkansas-St Johns winner might end up being whomever has players left that haven’t fouled out
