🤔 Every road seems to lead to Russia…

Heroin addict and steroid abuser wants the rest of us to to make as smart decisions about our health as he has.

Exactly

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

This is really something

Welp. 🤷‍♂️

No, the mail is not “the least of our worries.” It’s a fucking important worry. It is the only postal service that delivers to every address. They are only provider of complete mail services for overseas military bases and provide free overseas PO boxes. They help prepare passport apps. Ship meds…

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Hey everyone! I did an emergency live over on Substack, reminding us all that we will win this thing! Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

I love that badass Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has absolutely no fucks to give. She will lay the facts out and doesn’t mince words, she also doesn’t give in to political pressure to stay quiet. National treasure.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

Dark skies reflect my sadness at the firings of all the humans that help keep the #GreatLakes as healthy as possible. Tonight I mourn the loss of the 14 @usfws.bsky.social employees that kept the invasive sea lamprey at bay. My fishery will be hurt. 😢😢🌊🌊

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Take J. Edgar Hoover and then make him 30 times worse. The whole nation will suffer for this folly. Suffer so much more than anyone yet realizes. This was a critical benchmark Trump had to hit to advance his plan to destroy democracy. Everyone who voted for Kash Patel should live in infamy forever.

@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."

This will go down as the real end.

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Feeling this one tonight. youtu.be/SRXH9AbT280?...

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

These self-identified Jesus-followers are celebrating the separation of parents from their children and spouses from one another; cheering families torn apart, lives violently uprooted, and human beings being terrorized at school and at work and at church. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-youre-a...

"Who do you think is more responsible for the break in? The burglar who broke in, set fire to the house, raped everything in it, and shit on everything, or the homeowner who was just minding his own business being a homeowner in his own fucking home?"

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

Yep

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Oh god yes.

He should be our messenger.

“Zelensky survived a dozen Russian assassination attempts including a special forces assault on his presidential complex.He stood up to Trump. I’m sure he’ll be deeply impressed to learn our Congressional Republicans live as terrified hostages of their own party leader.” ~ @michaeldweiss.bsky.social

What President Putin wants, President Putin gets.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Good morning ☀️ Hubby and I are sick. 🤒 Vaccinated, but various strains of ick still floating around. Stay vaccinated, mask up 😷, take good care of yourself. Hope to be back soon. 💜 Don’t accept their madness. Focus on change. Be the change. We are the change. #SheShed

This is correct.

above all else the current crop of republicans in congress are the most pathetic cowards to ever serve in washington www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

Thanks to Donald Trump – it's a great day to be a billionaire in America. For the rest of us? Not so much.

The border czar wants the FBI to arrest AOC. A Fox News contributor is calling journalist Mehdi Hasan a terrorist. Elon Musk said everyone at 60 Minutes should go to prison. You all see how quickly we’re descending into madness, right? It’s not subtle, slow, or anything but a premeditated scheme.
