Man, people will soon be begging for the days when we had egg, food inspectors, and free transgender.

Another day filled with rage and disappointment as garbage men continue to make everything worse, dangerous, untenable, unjust, fearful, hateful, and willfully stupid.

Republicans are pro-Israel and anti-Jewish.

All of this is insane & evil but the new part of this to me is when he says this “cost Trudeau the election”. In actuality the Liberals are surging in the polls. He’s thinks he’s influencing the Canadian election too, but he’s failing at it.

there is nothing they won't normalize

The Great Lakes states have, for years, been fighting an invasion of lamprey eels, which were devastating the fish stocks in the lakes. Trump fired the people who've almost succeeded in doing that. www.bridgemi.com/michigan-env...

“put it on his fucking gravestone”

God Smite The King.

Works as advertised

Trump calls himself “THE KING”

As a humanitarian aid worker, 28-year-old Edward Scott has made multiple trips to the front-line areas to evacuate civilian Ukrainians. But the mission on Jan. 30 to the embattled city of Pokrovsk in southern Donetsk Oblast was different.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

Chris Murphy: "This deal that Donald Trump just cut with the mayor of New York -- it's a big deal ... they did that out in the open on TV because it's a signal to everybody else out there that the law will be applied differently to you if you are loyal to the president."

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

American presidents don’t even joke about this. Just because he’s petty doesn’t mean this isn’t dangerous.

For 16 years, U.S. aviation had a perfect record—ZERO major commercial plane crashes. Then Trump returned and in just 29 days the USA has had seven crashes, 15 aviation disasters, and 85 dead, on pace for this over 1,000 dead this year via plane crash.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Math is hard

repeating myself a bit here but trump can issue an executive order but that doesn’t necessarily mean shit if it doesn’t have a firm statutory basis. if congress lays out in law what the duties of a particular official are, then no, the president can’t decide those duties are something else

"Project 2025 approved SSA administrator steps down just 3 weeks into the administration, giving up a GS-15 career in the process, because she knew even one more week on the job would risk putting her in prison for decades" is a very good and comforting sign (Musk's touching the stove)

Bright passionate people who wanted to dedicate their lives to public service were fired in a mass email over the holiday weekend. This has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, fraud, waste, or abuse. And your life will be worse because of it.

I know we’re all fucking terrified right now but it’s not useful to ponder worst case scenarios. It is highly unlikely that even these ghouls would give 20% of the population antidepressant discontinuation syndrome.

Just because it's legal doesn't mean it's moral or ethical. In fact, sometimes moral and ethical behavior is criminalized.

happy presidents day

Imprisoning journalists is fine when we do it

An important point to keep in mind.

Crazy how quiet Media & Political Elite have been about our new concentration camps: How many people are in Concentration Camp Gitmo? What countries are they from? Are any American citizens? Are they getting lawyers? Are they being held in humane conditions?

What happened to freedom of speech?

"The sin of empathy" is a phrase I saw by one of these fascists that has stayed with me. In order to commit atrocities, you must eliminate empathy. You must dehumanize people to the point where empathy is impossible in order to get tacit assent by a population to commit mass violence and murder.

Republican lawmakers in Utah are advancing a bill that would allow schools to fly swastika flags and Confederate flags while banning Pride flags. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

A Republican lawmaker has introduced a bill to make Trump’s birthday a federal holiday. They refer to Trump as a “founder” and compare him to George Washington.
