“Now that you’ve unfairly called us Nazis I have no choice but to do a Sieg Heil” is really where we’re going with this. Do not relent. The public is not on their side. “It was an accident” is not the same thing as “I’m doing it intentionally but ironically.”

if you were accidentally fired while transporting a nuclear warhead and currently need a place to stay with said warhead please know that i have a sizable backyard and an abiding desire to be a nuclear power

what if the whole of the federal workforce threatened a walkout unless elon and trump stopped purging jobs of their colleagues? this would include the secret service, atc, and other extremely essential personnel. that should slow things a bit...

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

Wow, this is outrageous! DOGE claims they found fraud where 150 year olds were receiving Social Security! What a joke these incompetent, inexperienced folks running this department are! #BlueCrew #BlueCircleFamily🌈🦋 #BluePetPatrol💙🐾 #ProudBlue #Resist #TruthWarriors #antitrump #antimaga

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

"[For the Right], D.E.I...is the mere presence of a woman or nonwhite person or disabled or transgender person in any high-skilled, high-status position. And their alternative isn’t some heretofore unknown standard of merit; it is the reintroduction of something like segregation." (gift link)

Hudson Valley Republicans are reeling this morning at the size of Ken Jenkins ' blowout Westchester win over MAGA candidate Christine Sculti, endorsed by Trump. Experts reckoned a much tighter race, and Mike Lawler staked his reputation on Sculti, went all in. Lost 64-36.

Wow, that was fast. Irving Energy, company that provides propane/fuel oil customers in New England, says it will pass on the full 10% tariff cost to all their customers immediately (reposting with fixed figure - meant to say 10%, not 30%)

For those wondering: Yes, I'm uploading the entire 15 GB public-facing CDC.gov website that I downloaded a few days ago...but it's gonna take awhile to upload...

they’re segregationists

evil and cruel

If the Trump administration's funding freeze extends to Medicaid, every state would be affected. Medicaid is the largest source of federal revenue to states. The ripple effects of a freeze in Medicaid payments would be enormous, affecting hospitals, nursing homes, and doctors.

It’s almost like they want to keep America stupid—less financially stable & thus more controllable.

also worried about that ambiguous word, 'mercy'

Libs: "Black Lives Matter" Conservatives: "All Lives Matter" Conservatives, again: "Maybe not all Lives, but definitely Blue Lives Matter" Conservatives, yet again: "Well not all Blue Lives, but at least Officers who Support the Convicted Felon Lives Matter"
