What are Musk and his hackers doing in the Social Security Administration? Americans paid into these accounts with our hard earned money. It has nothing to do with the deficit. That was caused by GOP tax cuts largely for the rich and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Walking the dog. Like I do every day. She pooped. Like she does every day. I picked it up with a little baggie. Like I do every day. But today, instead of waiting to toss the bag of fresh, steaming dogshit in a trash can at home, I left it on the hood of a double-parked Cybertruck. Where it belongs.

cc: @Gavin Newsome It’s time to build a CDC & NIH in California with the folks who were fired from the feds. In fact, I think each blue state governor needs to scoop up these scientists, healthcare workers and laboratory workers asap. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

“We’re not going anywhere. What’s more: we’re expanding.” Nearly a dozen of Minnesota’s foremost experts on gender-affirming care collaborated on this beautiful op-ed in today’s Strib. No paywall.

Trump’s corrupt quid pro quo with the dismissal of charges against the indicted mayor of NYC is far worse than Watergate. The press and the Democrats need to treat it as such. It is heartening that mass resignations at DOJ show there are still people with integrity in the justice system.

The job of congress isn't to come on here and tell us stuff, that's the media's job. Your job is to tell us what you're going to DO about it.

Trump and his GOP rubber stamps are planning decimation of programs helping low and moderate income Americans. This includes Medicaid, Obamacare, food assistance like school lunches, and climate change programs. Is this what kind of country we want to leave to future generations?

Trump once again turns the US into a pariah state by pulling our nation from the Paris climate accord. He does this while Southern California is burning and it is snowing in Florida. Climate change is here now and will only get worse. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/23/c...
