Modern libraries are my favorite place in the world. I cannot believe the level of cool free stuff that's available now! I loved the library as a kid, but if I grew up with resources like these I probably would have lived there šŸ˜‚

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldnā€™t find itā€¦so donā€™t RT right now this very second.

[getting a bootleg flu shot] Them: do you have an egg allergy? Me: wait, you also sell egg?

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

He nails it.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who agrees that if you want people to stop calling your party a bunch of Nazis, then your party leaders should stop doing Nazi things like the Sieg Heil. Did you notsee this coming?

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is definitely one of the good ones. Today he HAMMERED Trump with a detailed list of all the prices that are going up because of Trump's trade wars. Make sure everyone sees this.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Resist

Elon Musk to reporter: ā€œWe post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I donā€™t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.ā€ Hereā€™s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. Itā€™s literally a blank page!

Thatā€™s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Donā€™t just say DEI as if itā€™s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

The "Make America Healthy Again" movement perfectly encapsulated in a single photo.

I donā€™t know about yā€™all, but Iā€™m starting to think the only thing that kept the planes from crashing before was diversity.

Great point.

Representation without taxation for a handful of billionaires, taxation without representation for the rest of us.

238 law professors from across the country have signed on to a Statement of Urgency about the peril of the constitutional crisis that is now upon us. Complete list of signers below. Please read and repost!! Thank you!

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Not gonna lie. I'm pretty upset the Trump Administration has given access to my private personal data to a whole bunch of dudes who still get mad when their mom buys the wrong shape of chicken nuggets at the store.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ā€˜what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?ā€™ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. Heā€™s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

"Terrible things are happening outside... poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared." - Anne Frank (Jan 13, 1943)

If I turn on the Rose Bowl Parade and say "what is this malarkey" the answer better be ground nutmeg or forsythia blossoms, not a dance number featuring the winners of Canadian Idol or whatnot

Thatā€™sĀ a fact.

Muskā€™s wealth in 2012: $2 Billion Muskā€™s wealth in 2024: $447 Billion Bezosā€™s wealth in 2012: $18 Billion Bezosā€™s wealth in 2024: $249 Billion Zuckerbergā€™s wealth in 2012: $44 Billion Zuckerbergā€™s wealth in 2024: $224 Billion Minimum wage in 2012: $7.25 Minimum wage in 2024: $7.25

Itā€™s weird to think that Elon Musk will end up having paid far less for the United States Government than he did for Twitter

True luxury is found in the simplest moments.
