The Trump administration doesn't GAF about the sovereign domestic authority of Greenland, Panama, or Canada. And the US government cannot evade its duty to the Constitution and due process by simply flinging human beings to locations outside its own grasp. Courts must correct this immediately.

Trump is also saying that the once the US has rounded up individuals, with minimal or zero due process, on whatever pretext they choose, they can send them out of the US to face torture, death, life imprisonment, slave labor or other fates that are unconstitutional or illegal in the US.

Trump is a walking gish gallop of bullsh*t, so it's virtually impossible to push back on everything, every time....but it's worth pointing out as often as possible that we have no evidence that ANY of these men are violent or menacing, and evidence of the opposite for several.

While we had "guardrails" around Trump in T1. They also to credit for making him look somewhat intelligent enough to be capable of reading a Dr. Suess book. The guardrails are gone, and now all we see is how completely stupid he is.

The danger of people using and accepting chatGPT style AI this whole time is that it has never been effective, never been ethical, and now it’s going to be used by the government to harm people at scale

The Bill and Ted franchise is the purest. There’s three movies. They’re all classics. One of the stars is an activist who is a true warrior. One of the stars is a legendary nice guy. The writers are greats. George Carlin was in it and he was the greatest. The Marvel comics ruled.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Child, adult COVID survivors more likely to have heart disease, symptoms, data suggest. New studies from the U.S. and Poland show COVID-19's heart impact: infected children have higher risks of issues like high blood pressure and heart failure, while adults often face lasting heart symptoms.

I made the point to my senators over and over again that whatever pennies Elon was "saving" would be far outweighed by what his actions were going to cost us. Roger Wicker kept sending form emails about how DOGE was going to fix the deficit. Cindy Hyde Smith never even bothered to reply.

Every single time I called/emailed Roger Wicker about DOGE, he replied how much he supports Musk because he's so very concerned about the national debt. But he voted to add nearly 6 trillion to it, while DOGE is "saving" a tiny fraction of that with cuts that will cost us more in the long run.

Do you ever look at a sparrow and think, "that bird is really wasting her potential?" No. That thought would clang against the simple dignity we sense in nature, the dignity of a living thing inhabiting a life. You are that sparrow. You are the branch she rests upon. You embody that same dignity.

BREAKING — DOGE will descend upon Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) buildings tomorrow, an agency source tells me. FDIC is responsible for insuring all commercial/personal US bank accounts for up to $250k and regulating banks. Scary in light of Trump’s manipulation of markets this week.
