NASA and NOAA (used to) fund satellites that not only look at deep space but also our solar system, the Earth, and the solar wind, which all contribute to the development of crucial technology in the US. Stupid, stupid kneecapping www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/s...

Don’t forget, masks are OK to wear as long as you’re wearing one while rounding up undocumented people for detention centers that are profiting off of it all. 👍

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

The world they’re trying to make rests on the assumption that there will never be a reckoning for what they’ve done. The present is bad; their imagined future is far worse.

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

And when they've broken everything and made people's lives worse in dozens of different ways, the GOP response is going to be complaining that the government is broken and we need to try New Things instead. No, it was working. They broke it. Don't let them weasel out of responsibility.

It's remarkable how much of this administration's agenda has been laser focused on simply making life worse for ordinary Americans.

If you don't want to be compared to the Gestapo, one neat trick is to not engage in a campaign of terror around the country wherein you kidnap people off the streets to slave dungeons in accommodation of an autocratic fascist and his nationalist movement's desire for racial purity.
