This is why North Korea has the world's leading economy

Friends, I know you're excited to try protesting, but under no circumstances should you ever sign up to attend one. I'm suspicious of any org asking people to put their name on a list that is easily accessible via warrant or may even be public. You can just show up day of.

They want to imprison anyone for burning down a Tesla. For 20 years. How much for burning down the stock market?

“It is up to all of us to fix this. It’s not going to be because somebody comes and saves you.” - President Obama yesterday We must organize the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power. Join an event near you for tomorrow’s nationwide day of action: handsoff2025.com?SQF_SOURCE=i...

How many train wrecks do we have to survive before we pull our heads out of our collective asses and let women run this country? They called it from day one.

Thank you for everything, school librarians & library workers! At a loss for words thinking of how you somehow find a way to continue doing your unnecessarily stressful jobs. I have to think your library kids are a big part of why. Whatever the reason… thank you. We love you, we support you 💛

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

The White House admits they sent an innocent father of three to the prison in El Salvador but they are still fighting to make sure he doesn’t come home. The definition of evil.

“These are normal, everyday people who are saying I’ve had enough. I’ve seen institutions fall. I’ve seen universities, I’ve seen businesses, I’ve seen law firms not stand up, not support our liberal democracy. So what am I going to do as an individual?” “That’s what tomorrow is about.” - Ezra

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.

I love the analogy

I explained it to several young teens today: imagine we wanted you to become more self-sufficient in the kitchen, so we decided to charge you $20 every time you got takeout. But also we have no food in the house, we won't let you go to the store, and also you don't know how to cook.

Obama would have been impeached a month ago if he even thought about this foolishness........

I kind of want to go

Unimaginable

Get your shots!

As much as I love women's athletics sports, I agree 💯%

In tundra ecosystems, roots don’t stop growing when the leaves do — they keep growing late into the season. We found that plant community type drives these below-ground patterns. Graminoids especially show a big late-season growth pulse 🌱 Check our our new GCB paper! #Phenology #Roots #ArcticEcology

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.

March saw the third-highest number of layoffs in U.S. history, and 80% of them were caused by DOGE This was before the tariffs It's just...unbelievable

They did the thing they said they would do. Shame on you if you didn't believe them

But can any of the maga read or think things through?!

Worth reading about this doc's experience moving to Canada. Validating the ideas that have been swirling in my head.

What we've accomplished during our trade mission will extend far beyond this week. We've laid the foundation for a new era of cooperation and shared prosperity for Illinois and Mexico — whether or not this federal administration decides to maintain their retreat into isolation.

What if you’re so outrageously incompetent you get it done in a matter of minutes?

Seriously.

What. A. Surprise.

Every challenge presents an opportunity. Go for it #Canada.

Actually, it sounds reasonable.

I get these random people offering me jobs. And all I can think of are the federal government employees who've lost theirs. So I'm gonna post the jobs here in case it helps. #laidofffederalemployee /1

Sounds like a plan

pro tip: if you can afford to blow $250 million on a losing campaign in Wisconsin, you can afford to pay a 90% top tax margin

Gerber: He's actually proposing that I would get a tax cut of all people, which I don't want to fund these tariffs that effectively will bankrupt the lower and middle class of America.

Truth

He should try kindness for a change.

What gobbleygook is that?!?!
