Fanone: There’s a lot of John Fettermans in the world and unfortunately, that’s why we’re in the predicament that we’re in

Christian fundamentalist president forgets to place his hand in magic book while swearing oath of office. And thus domestic talibanism takes off with the wrong foot.

The Orange 🍊 Era is over, welcome to the Golden Era.

Don’t get your stinky ‘golden age’ on my face!! First lady Melania Trump gives America a practical demonstration of what a “buffer zone” really means.

Was that Stormy Daniel signing America the beautiful?

Coming soon, our first foreign born President (and damn the Constitution). Starting 1/20/2025 . . .

Cooper: Trump chose to attack you, blame you for this. Newsom: People are literally fleeing. People have lost their lives.[Trump] wanted to politicize it… I stood next to Biden. And he had the backs of every single person in this community. He didn't play politics, didn't try to divide any of us.

Feliz Navidad 🎄 Merry Christmas 🪅 Happy Holidays 🎅

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids. Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

I have met wonderful people in the automotive industry, but only a few made more sense or were kinder, and most definitely none made me laugh as hard, than the one and only #JeanJennings. She was pure automotive royalty, brilliant and with a heart of gold. I will miss you my #friend.

Where is JD Vance?

The poster isn’t on bluesky so screenshotting but this is definitely one of the more evil UHC stories I’ve seen.

And we have to share the planet with these people…

As of noon 1/20/2025 this will be the new “Hail to the Chief” #Hailtothechief

Very much this, from Dan Drezner. He focuses a lot on universities, but rightly so. U.S. educational, scientific and technological preeminence are closely linked — and all have a lot to do with the past openness of our society 1/ open.substack.com/pub/danieldr...

Remember when "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" tried to teach us about tariffs and no one was paying attention
