Some days I wonder if we'll ever wake up to a sane world.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Woke ain't going away

This x10000000000 “In other words: We, the opposition, are the majority. Take heart.” www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

We aren’t all farmers…

I suppose we are unlikely to get confirmation of this.

Donald Trump’s firing of military leaders — four-star General Brown and four-star Admiral Franchetti — along with top legal officers is a betrayal of legions of first rate service members who dedicate their lives to our nation’s defense. This is a growing national security risk.

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

The same people who'll get mad about others using the term "Pregnant People" instead of "Pregant Women" will turn a blind eye to "Controversial Gesture" being used instead of "Nazi Salute." Even with very clear footage of Steve Bannon doing one as well. We've reached peak stupidity as a species.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

So we can attack Canada and it will be their fault because they could have negotiated to be the 51st state. Did I get that right? (Sorry, Canada. I'm just making a point.)

These Fascists can’t see past the end of their own nose. All they see is dollar amounts in a table, not the actual toll of human lives and national security. More proof that neither of them are actually good businessmen, opportunity cost is a fundamental principle taught in basic econ classes.

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

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

Ok that made me laugh

So Brazil and South Korea can handle business. Why can we not?

BREAKING: The USDA, under DOGE orders, has accidentally fired staff working to combat bird flu. It’s now trying to rehire them. It follows the accidental firing of nuclear safety staff last Friday. And the accidental firing of FAA’s experienced aviation safety staff. Incompetence will be deadly.

Attorney General Pam Bondi disbanded an FBI task force investigating foreign influence operations, including those targeting U.S. elections. Additionally, she restricted enforcement actions against individuals who fail to disclose lobbying on behalf of foreign governments.

This is important. You don't get a pass. Stop making excuses.
