Dan Caine, Trump’s new replacement for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Trump, “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.” He also put on a MAGA hat, despite it violating military protocol.

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.

This is how it’s done.

Of all people to complain about a performance…

You can’t spell FELON without ELON.

Perfectly captured.

This would also be illegal. Trump cannot criminalize conduct via executive order, and he certainly can't reinterpret state criminal law. This is intended most of all to terrify people. If you are a teacher, consult an attorney for the laws in your state. But don't comply in advance.

Trump's spending freeze was unconstitutional and a violation of the Impoundment Control Act. But the public uproar yesterday should serve as a reminder that Trump's plans to gut federal programs are deeply unpopular. Keep fighting. Keep up the pressure. Don't tune out. www.cnn.com/2025/01/29/p...

Democrats are not going down without a fight. In fact, we’re going to take it all back, bit by bit, because we’re pissed off and motivated as hell.

Agreed!

Digging into this is fascinating Turns out there’s like a Dental Dichotomy where some dentists are good with wetting your toothbrush and others are anti-wetbrushers We’ve finally found something less than 9 out of 10 dentists agree on

There is simply no plausible argument that the president has the constitutional authority to refuse to spend appropriated funds because he doesn’t like how the money is being spent. The legality of policy impoundments is just not a close question.

Can’t wait t’git my hands on nem cheap eggs!

Trump II has begun. Many people are asking: “What can I do now?” Here are 10 recommendations. Please let me know your thoughts, and if you have anything else you'd like to add to the list.

We have to take over the Democratic Party at the individual county level in state after state. We have to glamorize community and field work while actually showing tangible attempts at improving lives with roadmaps for future policies. Or we do nothing and old men post tuna sandwiches memes.

Dear literally everyone Don’t use Discord or Reddit to organize protests and movements Please and thank you

Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont... It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong
