I know we can’t do it and I know I’m asking to get screamed at for this but boy if we could do a national divorce I’d be so so into it.

Part of the lesson here is that Trumpists, like many bullies, don’t handle it well if you stand up to them rather than caving. If Trump or Vance or their supporters had any character this petulant display and Zelenskyy’s defiance would be humiliating to them.

Looking at some survey data here. Trump/Elon cutting off all cancer cure research is the issue that freaks voters out more than any other, also the one they've heard the least about. Important for voters to hear more about this.

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December. Tesla’s CEO was not in the office. In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

BREAKING: A federal judge just blocked Donald Trump's executive order pausing the US Refugee Admissions Program saying it appeared to "cross the line" into "nullification of congressional will."

In other words: They've fucked up, they know they've fucked up, and they're trying to lay the groundwork on blaming Biden for their colossal fuckup, all while panicking about jobs reports that are going to be abysmal and covering for it by saying it's a needed adjustment for government bloat

FWIW, there's an age-old conspiracy theory among gold bugs that all the physical gold in Fort Knox was sold to artificially suppress the price.

If any other national broadcasters are looking for debaters as to whether the US should illegally and violently annex Canada as their 51st state, I am happy to volunteer my time as the side who answers every rational, thoughtful question with "Why the actual fuck are we being balanced about this"

This video does such a good job saying what I have been trying to say about commercial AI. An AI can write a 10th grade lit essay, but the point of an essay assignment is not to produce an essay. The essay teaches critical thinking, research skills, etc. The effort is the point.

Compare this to any random statement from AOC, Crockett, Frost and you see the difference between a schlub playing pick up basketball and an NBA all star. Maybe don’t pick your leaders from the people who just hang around a long time and make the right friends (Pelosi).

People are treating the egg shortage as if it's merely a supply problem. The reality is that it is a symptom of a spreading virus. That virus kills cats but hasn't infected a lot of humans yet. The more it spreads, the more it reproduces, the more likely it becomes contagious and deadly to humans.

On the heels of multiple airplane disasters, including one less than a month ago that killed 67 people, and after years of warnings about our understaffed air traffic control system, Trump has begun firing hundreds of FAA air traffic control workers. apnews.com/article/doge...

Vichy Twitter is a censorship engine run by a nazi. The best time to stop using it was after Elon Musk bought the site, the second best time is now.

The single biggest mistake anti-Trumpers are making in resisting DOGE is the desperation to accede to the need for reform of government. MUSK'S OWN COMPANIES are hellholes ridden with corruption and waste and violations of the law. People should be on the ATTACK against private sector misconduct.

The Canadian hockey fans in Montreal are booing the USA National Anthem at the start of USA vs Finland, and I am 100% ok with that.

I understand why an American hockey player would not like hearing his national anthem booed. The American hockey player must also understand that I don’t like having his president threaten war against my country. Fair? #habs #gohabsgo #nhl #4nationsface-off

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: an administration (and its supporters) who believe that they are not limited by the rule of law have no moral or philosophical claim to the protection of the rule of law. “The law is whatever we say it is” warrants the same in response.

This morning, President Trump and his crony Elon Musk illegally seized $80M in congressionally-appropriated FEMA funding from NYC bank accounts. Trump and Elon stole tens of millions of dollars straight from our bank accounts--this is highway robbery, and NY cannot take this lying down.
