firing for "too much DEI" is plainly firing a woman and a Black man on the presumption only white men can be qualified. this is disgusting biogtry.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

What’s happening with the US government reminds me of this story (great book btw): Libertarians took over a town in NH in 2004 and gutted its services, cut taxes, etc. Less than 8 yrs later things had gotten so bad that black bears were breaking into homes and killing people for the first time ever.

Don't Forget!!

Donald Trump firmly believes the man should provide and the woman should raise the kids. He's made such comments throughout his life. Thus, he must believe Elon is "less than a man" for lugging his tax deduction around. And yet, he lets the tax deduction tell him to "shush". Trump is paid for.

One fun fact about “religious exemptions” for vaccines is that there is no religion that actually opposes vaccines

The four horseman of the ER right now: 1. Influenza A-so much of it 2. COVID 3. RSV 4. Pneumonia Mask, sanitize, wash hands, and get those vaccines folks!

History will look back and see a bought and paid for SCOTUS, and a congress that laid down in fear instead of standing up to tyranny

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

We were already short ~2,000 air traffic controllers before these senseless terminations

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

Would you wear this? To where?

Rainy workdays are for the Rose Room at NYPL

Gutting the CDC right as we’re on the cusp of major outbreaks of transmissible diseases is a very bad idea.

Amazing day out here and across the country! We have over 70 people at this store in Pasadena. Won't post shots of the crowd, up to others if they want to. This is just the beginning! #TeslaTakedown Teslatakedown.com

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

Britannica Refuses To Rename The Gulf Of Mexico "We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.'s authority to rename it is ambiguous." www.yahoo.com/news/reason-...

That we have appointed Gabbard to head up the secret squirrels and Hegseth as SECDEF is strong evidence that this is the Bad Place and is run by a trickster god with a very earthy sense of humor

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

Fuck off, Susan. We've heard your lame arse bullshit before
