Maybe one day we'll return to being the best country and democracy and have nice things like him again...

I think I like this guy already. #PopeLeoXIV #RobertPrevost

Maybe our new Pope Leo XLV could have a conversation with Orange 🍊 Man…

Cameron Hamilton, the acting head of FEMA, has been pushed out as DOGE moves to disband the entire agency. It’s looking like RIP FEMA.

Yes

Trump has ordered federal agencies to abandon a key legal tool long used to combat discrimination, effectively weakening one of the core enforcement mechanisms of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The Trump administration fired Librarian of Congress Dr. Carla D. Hayden as part of their sweeping book ban efforts. One of the titles removed? Freckleface Strawberry, a children’s book about self-acceptance. Seriously, who gets offended by that?

Buckle up folks!

A 90-second failure of Newark Airport’s air-traffic safety systems, which blacked out communication to planes carrying thousands of passengers, has exposed a new level of crisis in U.S. air travel. Listen to "The Daily."

WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP..IT'S A MUST

On Tuesday, I wrote an article warning about gutting FEMA & NOAA. That same day, DHS Sec. Kristi Noem told Congress FEMA should be eliminated. Yesterday, FEMA’s acting head told Congress the agency is essential “in our greatest times of need.” Today, he’s been fired.

Federal scientists will stop updating the NOAA list of billion-dollar weather disasters. The list, which had grown rapidly in recent years, reflected both worsening extreme weather and expanding development nationwide.

This ⬇️ says it all ‼️

Elmo’s LinkedIn post will get you right in the feels:

Brad is trying to spend some quality time with Brenda, but Steve has arrived to make things weird. (Steve is the one on the right)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has laid off thousands of workers since January. Current and former CDC staff are grappling with uncertainty about both their futures and public health.

“You obviously don't know my father at all,” the “These Boots Are Made for Walkin'” singer said.

Mike Pence and I agree on little — except love for this country and the Constitution. No one is more deserving of a Profile in Courage. On J6 he risked his life and ended his career to fight for democracy. In return, the GOP ostracized him. He has the eternal thanks of our nation.

Trump’s new budget proposal would slash funding for national parks, monuments, historic sites, seashores, and trails by nearly 25%, cutting more than $1.2 billion from the $4.8 billion Park Service budget.

Getting creative! 😉 Hundreds of billboards are rising in 40 U.S. cities, bashing staff and service cuts at national parks under DOGE.

Is Mike Lawler having anymore Jewish women assaulted this morning?

Hell, I guess the USA didn't make the list!

NY17 Constituent and local social worker Emily Feiner was singled out and forcibly removed during Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall.

NEW YORK (AP) - ProPublica wins 2025 Pulitzer for Public Service for reports on deaths of pregnant women in abortion-restricted states.

Star Wars is entertainment. This is what we should be acknowledging every May 4th. #FourDeadInOhio #NeverForget

The Trump administration has scrapped more than $800 million worth of research into the health of LGBTQ people, abandoning studies of cancers and viruses that tend to affect members of sexual minority groups, according to an analysis of federal data by The New York Times.

Trump said in an interview today that he wasn’t sure if everyone on American soil is entitled to due process, despite clear constitutional guarantees.

Clinicians at the Department of Veterans Affairs say President Trump’s return-to-office order is forcing many of them to work from makeshift spaces where sensitive conversations can be overheard. And veterans have noticed the lack of privacy.

As we’ve said before now confirmed. FOIA requests reveal that DOGE employees are pulling in six-figure salaries, with many holding the title of “Expert,” a specific Office of Personnel Management (OPM) designation that pays around $190,000 a year.

Check. Check. Check. Check. Putin will be so pleased.

SERIOUSLY!!!

#ResistanceRoots Dr. Benjamin Spock was born on this day in 1903 in New Haven, Conn. Best known for his book Baby and Child Care, he also was an activist in the New Left and anti-Vietnam War movements and advocated a guaranteed minimum income and legalizing abortion, cannabis and homosexuality.

What in the AF?!?!
