With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

Marco Rubio, Secretary of Everything www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/u...

Son of immigrants, Marco Rubio, calls human beings "despicable" and wants to dump them in other countries like trash. Since he loves authoritarian cruelty so much, he should deport himself to Cuba’s dictatorship and stop violating the rule of law. If despicable has a face in this story—It’s him.

April announced layoffs are 105,441, up 63% from last April and the highest April since 2009 (excluding the April 2020 announcements during covid). Year to date layoff announcements are up 87% relative to 2024. Source: www.challengergray.com/blog/april-2...

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

Watch what they do, not what they say.

The Fuhrer wants a Nuremberg style parade on his birthday.

🇩🇪 Germany’s intelligence agency has officially labeled the far-right AfD as an extremist threat, enabling expanded surveillance powers. AfD is now fully classified—not just “suspected”—as extremist. Authorities can use informants and tap communications. Civil servants may be barred from joining;

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy. Thank you professor.🙏

Y’all — OKLAHOMA is going to require their schools to lie to their kids that the 2020 election was tainted by fraud. popular.info/p/new-oklaho...

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods… I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

Like Trump, I was around at the only other time that the same person was Sec State and Nat Security Advisor. (Kissinger, for a while under Nixon.) Anyone who was around at the time knows that the arrangement was a disaster.

I saw some guy online comment today that "we need a male AOC" and I had to shut my laptop and go for a nice, long walk in order to avoid screaming.

“This is taxpayer-funded, state-sponsored religious indoctrination. You’ve just got to call it what it is.”

How come when the felon was being prosecuted he got to wander free for 4 years but Kilmar has to stay in jail for being innocent for 4 years while the felon's judges let him stall?

Indeed.

ICYMI — Trump desperately tries to blame Biden for his bad economic numbers, both now and next quarter. Sad.

The old Washington Post.

Yes! They are.

@FT: "About 44 per cent of Washington’s full-service casual dining spots say they are likely to close this year, partly because of the economic effects of federal lay-offs, according to the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington."

This country sucks so unbelievably hard right now

#GVerse #Attention: This is the real reason why the #OrangeBuffoon doesn't want real reporters to be around because they don't believe his bullshit! #MustWatch Repost!!!

we need to spend more time with @repdangoldman.bsky.social's clip. not a single penny toward disaster relief but TONS OF YOUR CASH to "protect" drumpf's golf habit 🧢 @mrsquirrel.bsky.social @zentrixter.bsky.social

Not only did America elect a spoiled five-year-old as president—he’s unraveling because he’s losing and can’t handle being called out. STARTED. GOING.

There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all. It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.

Kamala Harris: The American people deserve leaders who make their lives better, and make our country stronger. But sadly, we have seen quite the opposite over these past few months.

The point wasn’t to make the economy better or create a better America for everyone. The point was to dismantle the country and sell it off to the highest bidders.

Ok I am completely broken by this. The Hague and UN need to see this. #Texas

Truth

If you've had one of those days when all you really need is a baby bear trying to catch snowflakes, here's a baby bear trying to catch snowflakes.

Gum up all the works. Make them read every bill they introduce in entirety. Aren’t some of the items put forth for funding thousands of pages? Make them read it. Out loud. Call out points on every little thing. Sue them for everything. Tie up everything. Stop their funding.

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dccartoonist.bsky.social )

🚨BREAKING: Full Fourth Circuit DENIES Trump admin motion to stay order blocking Musk/DOGE access to personal data at Social Security Admin. Data will remain out of Musk/ DOGE’s hands. A BIG win for @democracyforward.org and its clients! Follow Democracy Docket for details. www.democracydocket.com

Anyone watch today’s briefing

Catholic Cardinal says the next pope must move against homosexuals because church doctrine has to be based on what Jesus said. Only problem? Jesus never said one single word about homosexuality. Or abortion. www.joemygod.com/2025/04/card...

I have knocked a lot of rural doors — I have never knocked one where the occupant said that they thought taxpayer money should go to private religious schools. Not once.

The Speaker of the House still refuses to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on January 6th with a simple plaque.   But this same GOP is rushing to give ICE agents more power to raid homes and detain families.
