I actually prefer to be under anesthesia for most minor procedures like conference calls and grocery shopping and folding laundry

it's hard to read the chart in the screenshot but what this moron is actually complaining about isn't "DEI" staff, it's special education teachers. these ghouls are coming for people with disabilities and they aren't even shy about it.

Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.

RFK saying that “Blacks” have better immune systems and shouldn’t get the same vaccines as white people should be disqualifying. But we live in really dumb times.

Such an important point… “The country has been hardened by a nine-year deliberate campaign of dehumanization.” — @NicolleDWallace We didn’t get here overnight. This wasn’t a quick process.

only questions yall should be asking: In what states are u licensed to practice medicine? Where did u earn your medical degree? Have u earned a certification in community healthcare outreach? How much $ did u make last year peddling healthcare disinformation? Did a worm eat your brain?

And no, I’m not saying that a bunch of Dems shouldn’t be criticized or that they haven’t made some mistakes… I’m just saying that’s for actual Dems to hash out… not former GOP who built the foundation of the current GOP or millionaire pod bros looking for clout.

I am not here for former GOP, who helped create the current GOP and then got ran out of their own party because they did one thing not evil one time, blaming Democrats for GOP ending democracy. Those dudes need to focus on their people before they punch down on and gaslight mine

burden on the opposition party? 2 what tweet harder? Yeah ur a hero 4 defying ur party, but gather ur people.O what? They ran u out so u can’t do anything but tweet? Exactly The party you helped create smashed all norms. U do something.Oh u did already? But ppl voted 2 end democracy anyway? Exactly.

another point-tho irrelevant bc words & meanings don’t matter-DEI & affirmative action aren’t the same. One is a federal program 2 ensure non-discrimination in hiring practices (practices being the key word) the other, a set of principles to make companies more competitive, innovative & profitable

DEI public favorability continues to be +19. Pundits are wrong that: 1) DEI is unpopular. It's popular. 2) This recent support is thermostatic. This is NOT thermostatic. DEI favorability has been high throughout its existence (second pic).

Karoline Leavitt was a Newsmax conspiracy theorist until last week and now because she has an Official job journalists repeat what she's saying as if it's true, giving her credibility. This is the main function of state media

“This administration believes that the moon is made of cheese. This administration feels that there are 103 states. This administration asserts that penguins are communists. This administration thinks that Mickey Mouse did 9/11. This administration holds that mangoes are the real racists. This …”

Who could've guessed that a guy who broke the law when he didn't have criminal immunity would break the law when he does have criminal immunity. Certainly not John Roberts.

I guess I'm too woke because I find the proliferation of this really off-putting and gross. The fact that it's now reached the "enlightened centrists" class is depressing.

His supporters followed him to their literal deaths in 2019 and 2020. Those who didn't die as a result of his ineptitude and sociopathy still follow him. They won't care if they starve to death without their benefits. He is their god, and that is a terrifying thought.

I want to point out that this is NOT a buy-out! Those who take the offer simply get permission to telework through September, at which point they lose their jobs. Media coverage of the details has been pretty misleading.

Nope. Uh-uh. These are YOUR people dude. Gather them up. What are Democrats gonna do with no power? Tweet real hard? You laid the groundwork for YOUR party to do this with all your tea party christo-facism bullshit in the early 2000’s. Take care of your own business. Then, maybe you can talk to us

on the one hand, small children will be be ripped out of their schools by armed agents of an increasingly authoritarian state presiding over the ashes of a ruined economy; on the other, Free Press fans never have to see a copy-and-pasted “diversity statement” on a syllabus ever again. a wash.

really about done w/Scott Galloway I held on b/c I felt Kara made headway w/ his misogynoir & transphobia- but at this point his blame the dems shtick is too much. Read the room dude. Dems didn’t do this & they have 0 power. Bring your heat to the gop for fucks sake.

40 years ago today a generation of gen x kids were partially shaped by watching this live on tv in our classrooms. They probably should have given us some counseling or something

Trying to stay calm about the very clear power grab and direct consequential impact on workplace and colleagues

I got this message loud and clear during the election. Why is it the Dems fault that these ppl didn't listen?

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

The range of emotions/thoughts this week: Fuck them - outrage - eye roll- terror - y’all are stupid - don’t fall for that - fuck them - I told yall - you want to tell me again about being friends? - fuck them - resignation - side eye - fuck them - eye roll - fucking tired - we did tell you - fuck

If you say we abandon red states, you kill a lot of dear friends of mine so fuck right off with that. We don't leave gerrymandered, vulnerable, decent people behind because of a zip code, you sanctimonious dicks.

Me, at the store watching them bitches complain about $8 eggs and $30 chicken.

Cabaret.

you mean this paragon of virtue lied to Hispanic people who voted for him despite a decade of him calling them criminals and rapists and now he won't take their calls? I. AM. SHOCKED. fuckin morons.

Tho this has been in the works for a year, Trump will get all credit despite having done no lifting on it. It’s also a way to show that Elon’s not the only tech BFF in town openai.com/index/announ...

They don't "have something on Fetterman." He just fucking sucks and his beliefs align with them. Stop making excuses for him.

White House reporters are excited that after four years of boring interviews with subject-matter experts they now get the adrenaline rush that comes from the personal attention of a president who threatens to have them executed. www.cjr.org/political_pr...

He won by a point and a half. He is not special nor particularly good at politics. These people literally just want to follow him because they also want to sexually harass women and not pay taxes. That’s it. Make sure you have politico blocked on all social media!!!

Not a single thing over the last 48 hours is surprising to me. Not surprised at people who spent 3 months lecturing that “politics isn’t personal” deleting me on socials b/c I all I’ve had to say, in short, is “welp 🤷‍♀️” But I’m not crying for anyone currently in the find out phase of fucking around

Black people, Jews, and gays...we understood the assignment. it sucks that we have to be punished because the rest of the country is so fucking stupid, but we'll always be able to say we were right, so there's that.

As journalists we have to walk a fine line, and sensitive stories often need to pass internal legal reviews before publication. I like how Wired handled this — the headline doesn’t mince words and actually shows you how Musk’s salute is being received by Nazis www.wired.com/story/neo-na...

This

I’m so glad I have 50 eleven different streaming services because imma bout to watch eleventy million shows over the next 4 years.

He just signed an executive order to withdraw from WHO with bird flu on the verge of exploding and RFK Jr. probably taking over HHS….so what could possibly go wrong?

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

This is manifestly not true and the fact that Jake is saying it shows that it didn’t matter — up is down, right is wrong.

Permanent mood.
