This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Typical Trump lie: He said Zelensky’s approval rating was 4% when in fact it hovers around 57%, far higher than Trump’s has ever reached. Another: He called Ukraine’s democratically elected leader a “dictator.” Yet another: He blamed Ukraine for Russia’s military invasion of its sovereign territory

Trump 45’s VP Pence posted: “Mr. President, Ukraine did not ‘start’ this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.”

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Something the fraudulent 6X bankrupt convicted felon doesn’t understand…those of us who faithfully WFH have credibility, packed schedules, no choice but to stay focused, & end up working longer hours than when we were in the office dealing with numerous distractions!

If any party, including the government, doesn’t like a court order, it can appeal it. It doesn’t get to just disregard it. Vance took an oath to uphold the Constitution, just like Sen. Cotton did. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Why do Trump and his billionaire bankrollers want to “delete” the CFPB? Fewer watchdogs means more opportunities for you to get scammed — leading to more money for them.

Elon Musk has been attacking USAID — because USAID has been investigating Musk Why? Because USAID paid for the Starlink units Musk claimed to give Ukraine in 2022 (!!!) Some ended up with Russia — so USAID opened an inquiry Meanwhile Musk started speaking to Putin in late 2022

FACTS: "There are proposals from Republicans to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid." THIS is what it would do: It would destroy Medicaid. It wouldn't fight inflation. It wouldn't bring anybody's prices down. It would just steal people's health care #HandsOffOurMedicaid
