A huge reason any of these bad things are happening is that people were permitted to get away with obvious and public crimes with no consequences.

Watching #timeless meant to watch it when it was out. Such great potential except dude loses his from the future gun like every episode and the big bad mystery is drawn out way too long. It could have been like Alias but with time travel.

"Across the government, the Trump administration is scrambling to rehire many employees dismissed by DOGE initiatives after wiping out entire offices, in some cases imperiling key services such as weather forecasting and the drug approval process..." www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Los Angeles school worker shares frustration over parents having to leave their children’s graduation ceremony because ICE raided an elementary school’s graduation today

Reading the parts of #TheWheelOfTime that I haven't yet: New Spring. After that? Ravens, The Strike at Shayol Ghul. Then, rereading the main books, starting with the Rosamund Pike versions. #SaveWOT SaveWOT.com I'll sprinkle other stuff in there. Maybe even other rereads, like Dresden Files.

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

I made a promise to YOU that I would do EVERYTHING in my power to stop this bill from moving forward, BUT I NEED your help. I will be going to DC for the day on 6/12 and I NEED your Medicaid/ACA/Medicare or SNAP stories to hand deliver to Senators. DM a short paragraph, your name & city/state. (1/2)

I'm having trouble finding housing due to income restrictions and student restrictions (just found out its totally legal to just not rent to a full-time student :D) Please support me and my stuff, because I was not expecting this level of hell and stress. linktr.ee/baconzilla

The head of FEMA reportedly said during a briefing that he wasn't aware the U.S. had a hurricane season, leaving staffers "baffled" and "confused"

We don't need food inspections. DOGE is saving us money. Everyone is gonna die.

Several months in, the devastating repercussions at research organizations from abrupt contract and grant cancellations continue apace. There are fewer public announcements now, but several larger firms have laid off a third or more of their employees and small businesses have been even harder hit.

Something that was severely undercovered years ago was Palantir’s hellscape in New Orleans. They basically turned policing into the game Watch_Dogs, with predictive algorithms and people getting stopped bc they *might* do crime.

As of today, Elon Musk is thought to be responsible for the death of 300,000 adults and kids due to the illegal closure of USAID (source: www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...) That's a 103 deaths per hour, each day. And it will get worse. His legacy is one of death, destruction, and failure.

They are purging all the transcripts.

Donald Trump’s “big beautiful bill” will increase the average family’s student loan payment by $400 a month. @thebudgetnista.bsky.social shared how hard this will hit families.

Victoria has not been found. Keep looking, keep posting, keep calling.

Victoria was last seen near Northside Hospital in Sandy Springs. She has also been spotted in the Lindbergh/ Piedmont area off Sidney Marcus. PLEASE HELP US FIND HER.

America didn’t get here by accident!

Show I didn't realize was basically shipper palooza until binge rewatch #Lucifer

5 years ago: “An incalculable loss” Today: Banning masks and restricting vaccine access

the social consequences of people replacing human connection with a hallucinated connection with a chatbot are going to be genuinely horrendous

Justin Sun is a Chinese billionaire who was sued by the Biden SEC in a crypto case. He’s a major investor in Trump’s World Liberty Financial. He also spent $40M+ on $TRUMP coins, earning an invite to dinner with Trump at his Va. golf club on Thurs. He apparently also got a private WH tour.

Kinda eerie how a St Louis comrade has been privately sharing disaster zone details — huge swaths of the city leveled, working-class Black folks disproportionately impacted — and how I'm basically not seeing this catastrophe reported by most national media. Read @devintoshea.bsky.social's piece ⬇️

The Trump Justice Department is failing to hold Boeing accountable. After two planes crashes and 346 deaths, Boeing gets a slap on the wrist. This deal sends a dangerous message that, under President Trump, corporate executives can put profit over safety and never face justice.

Do I need to spell out who this bill is really for?

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

So yes, as currently written the House GOP budget will require half a trillion dollars in cuts to Medicare. That’s T as in trillion and “care” as in Medicare on top of the cuts to Medicaid and Obamacare. So how did this happen? As near as I can tell House Republicans and the …

Somehow we are valuing the opinions of the most intellectually incurious people in an age of almost LIMITLESS access to information. It is infuriating to watch idiots be centered and watch idiots be in charge and watch idiots not react appropriately to the level of idiocy abound.

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

None of the 278 men sent to CECOT have been returned. Meanwhile their lawyer has been arrested and "disappeared" in El Salvador.

Rep. LaMonica McIver being charged by Trump’s DOJ for “assaulting” a cop is particularly scary because it was all on camera with many witnesses and the administration feels comfortable enough to straight up lie with impunity and target a sitting congresswoman

Does no one on TV use the phone or lock their doors? People just walking in whenever they want

Oh my God!

This is a HUGE scandal. Elon Musk, JD Vance, and Trump are lying about Social Security fraud. Internal documents show DOGE found "no significant fraud"—but did slow retirement claim processing by 25%. Nothing efficient about making it harder for people to get their benefits.

There were already thousands of people made jobless needlessly by this administration before the tariff havoc. How can anyone think this is good for the country?

Yesterday at a hearing with the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, Senators Whitehouse and Wyden sounded the alarm: climate-driven insurance collapse is a threat to families—and to financial stability. The costs are already hitting families. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgjr...
