Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

This administration has convinced half the country that the real problem isn’t billionaires who evade taxes and collect government handouts but the working class who pay taxes and get nothing in return.

Remember how long time was, as a child? Now rewind further, and consider the endlessness of the womb. Your life is a speck compared to that subjective infinity; the unborn are as gods, and we pass in their eye-blinks

The men who love bragging about their manliness also only victimize those with less power than them, especially women and children. They frame it, of course, as if they are protecting the vulnerable. Because they’re terrified of having consequences for their behavior, they need to lie about it.

I am old enough to remember when $TSLA bulls claimed that Tesla was years ahead in EV batteries (while ignoring that all the EV cells came from Panasonic anyway): “Hyundai is launching its all-solid-state ‘Dream’ EV battery pilot line next month” $TSLAQ electrek.co/2025/02/10/h...

Congress was denied entry to both the U.S. Department of Education and the Treasury, where Musk staffers blocked the doors. Along with its appropriations responsibilities, Congress holds oversight authority over federal agencies. Blocking congressional access to these agencies is illegal.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
