Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, had his first court appearance since he was arraigned in December on charges including murder as an act of terrorism.

A gentle reminder that I can do maps for your super-cool book, too! I’m quite mercenary about it.

It’s like Mr Rogers said, “look for the Luigis.”

Tots and pears, you parasites.

The new boss at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau had a jarring message for staffers Monday morning, in an internal memo leaked to Rolling Stone: “Stand down from performing any work task.” More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Absolutely correct. Call your House representatives. Write them actual letters. Show up at their local offices. Flood the zone. Demand they draw the line while they still can.

Finally! The smartest guy in DC is here! bsky.app/profile/pete...

@rbhubbell.bsky.social says it’s time for the Dem MOC to implement a Shadow Cabinet. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been sounding the alarm to do this. Robert’s suggestions who should be on it are in his article. We can add to it. @repjasmine.bsky.social comes to mind. Let’s do this! 202-224-3121.

The FAA and SpaceX hid the fact that they list yet another rocket this month. Not only that, but the FAA is not going to investigate either. And there’s your reason for forcing out the head of the FAA.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

Thou shalt not spend millions on Super Bowl ads about Jesus when you could’ve used it to feed the hungry.

A reminder:

Ouch

Donald got his first jobs cause Daddy owned the company. He failed at these jobs. But Daddy gave him >$400M to create the ILLUSION of success. That ILLUSION got him on The Apprentice, which spread the ILLUSION. That ILLUSION got him hired as president. He never got a job based on his abilities.

Stop whining about eggs

Get Mayor Adams in on another perp walk

No surprise

Much of the bullshit happening around the world is because Putin paid shills to stir up division & discontent in other countries & make Russians feel democracy & progress were not worth having… But I take a grim satisfaction that his huge successes on that front aren’t doing him a damn bit of good.

16 years. No major commercial airline crashes in the US. New administration comes in & immediately cuts jobs in places like… the FAA & air traffic control- Tragedies happen as do coincidences, but guaranteed they happen increasingly when you put a cavalier administration in charge.

Truth

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

Trump is a syphilitic halfwit.

“The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire a Senate-confirmed inspector general…” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"Every time he was escorted from his cell, D Block got locked down. During lockdowns, all prisoner movement is prohibited."

JFK's grandson John "Jack" Bouvier Kennedy Schlossberg calls out his cousins for staying silent as RFK Jr sits for senate confirmation -- suggests they know a lot that's damning. Sounds pretty pissed off

very excited to see what happens when you make a deeply compromised addict the leader of the department of defense and subordinate to a madman
