Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 1965: After five years and seventy million dollars we have invented a new type of plastic that prevents communists from being able to climb ladders too fast FEDERAL RESEARCH LAB SCIENTIST IN 2025: My cure for cancer was shelved because it might benefit Hispanics

Some people may be unaware of this, but this is the actual reason that they are banned from entering Canada. #TrueStory

To: [email protected] Re: Five activities this week As a regional OSHA lead, this week I inspected a local Chocolate Factory and found: 1. Slave labor 2. An open chocolate river with no guardrails 3. Improper waste disposal 4. Experimental products lacking FDA approval 5. Unsafe elevator for employees

Remember, Russell Vought said he wanted to "traumatize" federal civil servants.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

His poll numbers are TANKING.

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

The purge of senior officers who have served with distinction on the battlefield and off should send a shiver down the spine of any American who cares about an apolitical military.

“What merit means to them” General Brown’s record, which Hegseth questioned for obvious reasons: www.af.mil/About-Us/Bio...

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

Minnesota is leading the way on combatting climate change, and we’re creating clean energy jobs in the process. www.startribune.com/xcel-says-it...

We can agree that it's shameful if it comes to fruition. I dont think there is any chance it does. I don't understand why people don't believe Zelensky is as good a negotiator as Mexico or Canada. He knows you give Trump the PR win and move on

The shareholders at Tesla would probably like to ask a similar question: "Elon, what did you get done for us last week, other than further alienating our most likely customers with your obnoxious fascist stunts?

If I had to respond to an email as a federal employee asking me what I did at work last week, I'd make sure to list all the duties I had to absorb because of mass illegal firings, followed by a description of what the EPA's Walter Peck did in Ghostbusters.

People i know who had a Tesla have sold them. Nobody wants a Tesla now

Trump claimed today that “free speech” is back. Is that why he banned AP from the White House? Double speak and double standards by a snake oil salesman.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Anyone else see that Cybertruck stuck in the snow while the Honda Fit drives right past it? Pretty much sums up America vs rest of the world.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Trump just got bad news www.palmerreport.com/analysis/don...

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

U.S. stocks took a massive nosedive after reports showed worries about how Donald Trump’s policies will likely affect the economy
