This maggot is probably worse!

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

Did you hear about the Italian chef? He pasta away. Get it? I'll be here all week. Don't forget to tip your waitress.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

200 million dollars of waste.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Wouldn’t it be great if all politicians had the bravery #Maine Governor Janet Mills has. #seeyouincourt www.facebook.com/share/r/1FHC...

Opportunity: Americans Recoil at Trump/Musk Overreach by @davidpepperoh.bsky.social Disapproval is ramping up so Trump is goosing Elon to break things faster before opposition rises and people take to the streets.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Really????

If you didn't know... • Exxon • Moulton/Coors • Walmart Have funded Heritage Foundation (#Project2025) for YEARS #Boycott

looking back everything went to shit when Schoolhouse Rock stopped airing

As the first Black general in the U.S. Army, Benjamin O. Davis Sr. served for 50 yrs, including service in the Spanish-American War & both World Wars. He fought battles abroad & prejudice at home, paving the way for integration of the US Military, setting an example for future Black military leaders

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Oh cool Trump just re-invented DARE.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Oath Keepers' ex-leader convicted of sedition now wants to work for FBI: NATIONAL HARBOR, MD — Elmer Stewart Rhodes III, the founder and former leader of the Oath Keepers, told reporters at CPAC Thursday that he would enjoy working for the FBI or for Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.…

Pulling out the same type of device on a traffic stop that was used to beat police officers on Jan 6 is probably not the best plan.

No amount of executive orders can make us cease to exist.

Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the entire free world.

This is what I was talking about last week.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Chris Murphy: "My prediction is that if you vote for Kash Patel, more than any other confirmation vote you make, you will come to regret this one to your grave."

I don’t know about you, but I’ll never bend the knee to ‘King Trump.’ Get fucked.

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

I can’t stop thinking about these two headlines

Newsmax host claims of DOGE that "the numbers do not lie" and then immediately lies about the numbers

Hi, immunologist here: surviving measles has zero health benefits.

We have reached out to the company who was awarded this contract and they have confirmed the ceiling was $8 million—NOT billion. Here is their statement. The federal government is cooking the books.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

First Elonald has people in charge of our nukes fired, and now the USDA is trying to un-fire people tasked with protecting us from the bird flu? Each passing day these clowns are in office, we’re less safe.
