Yosemite National Park workers hang distress flag to protest Trump and Musk coming for their jobs.

Vilnius today. Thank you for standing with #Ukraine! 📹:@flyingcatdrone

Himes: "It just looks like an episode of The Sopranos. 'Give us your minerals or we're not gonna help you fight a bloody butcher.' I mean, is this really we want the greatest country in history to be known for -- some mafia thing? ... this president is standing with the bad guy"

Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

Just imagine, for a second, the waste of time and negative impact on productive for every employee(millions?!?) to spend let’s say 10’ on this useless request!!! The only benefit is probably to identify who is ready to surrender out of choice or fear!!!

This “interviewer” sounds and acts SO much like Caesar Flickerman from The Hunger Gamez.

Cette année-là, notre conseil d'administration a recruté un homme d'affaires américain de 40 ans, Donald Trump, sous le pseudonyme de "Krasnov"", Alnur Mussayev. Alnur Mussayev a été à la tête du comité de sécurité nationale du Kazakhstan (KNB) sous le mandat du président Nursultan Nazarbayev.

The origin of the obsession matters. From Giuliani to Musk, the Trump circle is obsessed with slandering and attacking Ukraine. Why? And instead of making a real case for abandoning it to Russia, it’s just one bullshit Kremlin propaganda tale after another.

This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

Even Elon Musk's own AI knows what Musk is really doing.

We Europeans must be careful not to get caught up in Trump's storyline and process. We must remain in control of the agenda—which means rejecting his. Let's not repeat his tale of “peace talks,” because that's already giving in to Putin. Let's have instead a narrative of victory—Ukraine's and ours.

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

Most stupid and evil POTUS ever!!! 🤬

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists. It's as if you took everything that was bad about America, scraped it off the floor, put it in an old hot dog skin & taught it to make noises with its mouth" #PRESIDEMENTIA

Waging an unprovoked war of choice, 🇷🇺 likes to spin a tale of a neighborly dispute that spiraled into a ‘conflict’ to be resolved through negotiations This framing is cynical & callous, but many nations around the world adopt it—absolving themselves of responsibility https://buff.ly/3D2XNjQ

Attention ! ⛔️ Il y a actuellement une augmentation spectaculaire de bots russes sur les réseaux sociaux. Une vraie invasion informationnelle pour exciter et agiter l’euroscepticisme. Le but ? Briser le soutien de l’Europe à l’Ukraine. 🇺🇦

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

This is how it’s done.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.
