Breaking: Whirlpool announces they are laying off 651 American workers in Iowa, citing the economic conditions under Trump.

Being vaccinated against shingles can reduce the risk of developing dementia, a new study found.

Happy Liberation Day!

Elon Musk went to Wisconsin where he said the "destiny of humanity" rested on the election. Tonight the voters agreed and rejected his and Trump's undemocratic vision for the country.

Elon can’t buy us. We are NOT for sale, and neither is democracy. THANK YOU WISCONSIN!

Crawford wins in Wisconsin!!!!!!!! Very very big and important victory. And a loss could have been calamitous in coming years for gerrymandering, voting rights, abortion and a lot more. Most expensive judicial election by far in US history. Her opponent campaigned in a MAGA hat. A good day.

What Cory Booker is doing right now is what *every* filibuster should look like, by the way. No little documents and notices to the majority leader. If you believe a bill must be blocked, you gotta stand up and bring the place to a halt till you physically can’t do it anymore.

Looks like tomorrow’s gonna be yet another bloodbath on Wall Street. But that’s ok because MAGA apparently loves watching their retirement savings disappear as inflation rises, massive layoffs occur, and the economy is speeding towards recession. 😳

We are on the verge of a recession because of one man: Donald J. Trump. Remember, we never were this close under the Biden/Harris Administration.

“In fact, relying on vitamin A instead of the vaccine is not only dangerous and ineffective, but it puts children at serious risk,” Sue Kressly, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, said [...]. “Taking too much vitamin A can cause serious health problems, including liver damage.”

The incompetence of this administration is staggering.

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

Hahaha, folks in Greenland are making these hats go viral ahead of Usha Vance's visit there. I LOVE THIS!!!! 💙💙💙💙

Hey guys remember the Hillary Clinton email server? Seems kinda, small today, doesn’t it?

Rebellions are built on hope.

Thank GOD Chuck Schumer kept Trump's Administration in business. /s

The attacks on higher education—funding and free speech—are incalculable. American higher ed has been one of the nation’s jewels, attracting over a million students from around the world each year.

Postcards ready for the Ides of Trump. 😊

Governor Walz is back on the scene and he’s not pulling any punches. ✊🏼 Good to see you Coach!!

This is the "honeymoon" phase.

Again, PLEASE order these COVID tests for you, your loved ones, your friends, your neighbors, and others you care about in your community. Please do not let these tests go to waste like the Hydroxychloroquine that Donald Trump stockpiled, caused a shortage and WASTED in 2020. These tests still WORK!

Please watch this ad. Please share this ad. Please follow @senecaproject.us. Please JOIN them. Please stand up for our vets. The draft dodger hates our troops. And that is un-fucking-acceptable. MAGA no longer supports our troops. But WE do. So let’s fucking go.

They want to dismantle education mainly for two reasons: 1) It's ultimately an equalizer. They'd prefer only rich white people be able to get a good education and therefore better jobs. 2) Ignorant people are much easier to fool. They've been trying to destroy education here for decades.

I smell some good trouble

Breaking News: the Supreme Court rules against Trump, directing him to unfreeze USAID funds. This is the first real test of whether the Supreme Court will be willing to address Trump's overreach and abuse of power.

As an American Citizen, I'm deeply AGAINST these unwarranted & OUTRAGEOUS tariffs to Canada. These are POWERFUL words by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and I applaud him for standing up for Canada and America. He KNOWS the majority of Americans AGREE with him! www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz_4...

Trump voters, Is this what you wanted? Did you want prices on groceries and gas to stratospherically rise as he taunts our long-time allies? Did you want a delusional billionaire to have access to our nation’s financial resources and your personal data? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/trump-vote...

Whitehouse: "I see the VP and the president acting very directly as agents of Putin and Russia in these so-called negotiations. Imagine if FDR had told Winston Churchill, 'We're cutting off Lend-Lease, you have to negotiate with Hitler, and be prepared to give up some of your territory.'"

Dear Canada and Mexico, We’re with you. Sincerely, Decent Americans

I've known a bunch of editorial cartoonists and I've seen them comment on some hard times. I've never seen anything like this before.

The 97th annual Academy Awards will broadcast live on ABC at 7PM EST on Sunday, March 2 -- and these fuckers better bash the living fuck out of Trump, and support Ukraine in very damn speech!!!

Who else is embarrassed to be an American? 🙋🏻‍♂️

Zelensky fact-checked JD Vance in real-time, and repeatedly interrupted Trump’s lies. At the end, Zelensky looked at the press pool and gave a thumbs up with a smile. Zelensky then went on Fox and refused to apologize. Good. Trump is the one who owes an apology—and his resignation—to the world.

A+++++++

I didn't think I was capable of feeling any more shame for what America has become. I was wrong.

You know we could've just been going about our lives as the economy steadily grew, our alliances continued to be strong, and we didn't have to worry about a psychopath running the country every day

Massive protests need to erupt across America against Trump after this disgraceful PR stunt against Zelensky.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

More class in his pinky than Trump has shown his entire life.

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!

Every single Democratic governor and attorney general needs to do this -- if only to make it clear to voters *right now* that the firings and funding freezes that are about to hurt their states badly are the work of Trump-Musk in Washington. Get ahead of this now, or get blamed for it later.

Brave to @jeffstein.bsky.social, WaPo's chief economics correspondent, for not wasting any time in stating what must be stated. Hopefully the first of many.
