US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”

I’m pretty damn sure the real reason Trumperdink wants to ban trans folk from military service is because he’s afraid they won’t fire on civil rights protests and won’t use force to round up other queer folk when ordered to. Plus serving with them makes the other troops more likely to do similarly.

Best possible scenario? Das Drumpf Reich finishes dismantling the US and collapses the global economy, but their bid to split the world apart into their own private technofascist dictatorships triggers a massive global backlash and we finally get fully automated luxury gay space communism. 🤷🏻‍♀️ ⚒️🌈🚀

The Trump administration has halted $1 billion in funding for mental health services for children, claiming that the programs, which were established under a bipartisan law aimed at curbing gun violence in schools, are no longer in “the best interest of the federal government.”

When I say that the past few years have broken my heart I’m not just being metaphorical. I’m seeing a cardiologist. My heart’s forgotten how to beat. It staggers, waltzing out of rhythm, no longer willing to march in time to a world where it could be so readily, thoroughly, and repeatedly discarded.

I DON’T wanna silence any voices. I DO think a unified message is more effective. A demand of full human RIGHTS and OBLIGATIONS for EVERYONE would protect ALL resistance members and help rein in the malicious lawlessness of this administration. That should make everything else easier to tackle too.

I’ve always groused about our dysfunctional economy Bemoaned the abusive collection of obscene hoards of capital Ranted about how much influence the wealthy have in DC I Screamed the orange horse at the gate was a trap But the back of its “made in China” tag said it’d “Make America Great Again.”

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Appeals court pauses ruling that barred Musk staffers from accessing personal data at Education, Treasury, and OPM

Labs going to waste, you can’t just pause and restart science! Years of work gone to waste.

Stop. It is not incompetence if the GOAL is to burn down the economy, rescue allies with government aid, purge the private sector of opposition by letting them burn, buy up the corpses of their companies for fire sale prices, and plant a shiny new oligarchy in the ashes. Please respond accordingly.
