Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Crockett: While he was stopping money… somehow the only money that didn’t stop was the money going to his organization. I don’t know you can have him be watchdog as well as the guy living off of the government. If you want to talk about government welfare, it looks like Elon Musk

It's called The Gulf of Mexico. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Italian politicians want action against a hunting party that included the president's son, who they accuse of allegedly killing a ruddy shelduck. One Italian paper called it the "Donald duck crisis."

We could have had Kamala Harris. Instead, we have the most immature, petulant, stupid, needy, incompetent dipshit to ever enter American politics. What a tragically stupid country we are.

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

STAHL: “You said Trump is nasty, not very smart, a sleazeball…” MCCONNELL: “Those were private comments.” STAHL: “But they’re in your biography.” MCCONNELL: “Yeah.” 😬

This is a word of warning to all of us. Left, right, or anything else. Constantly reevaluating and learning.

Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms Here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The only reasonable thing Canada and Mexico can do is RESIST The attacks on our friends are clearly designed to weaken the US and it's alliances. The impacts on our economies will be devastating. We're calling on the US Congress to impeach that madman and fast.
