Through new policies and aggressive cuts, the Trump administration is taking steps that will encourage more pollution while muffling the science that shows its harms. The very air that Americans breathe will likely become less safe, @zoeschlanger.bsky.social reports:

Donald Trump is so stupid he thinks drug dealers will pay tariffs on the illegal drugs they bring into the country. Right after they declare all profits on their income tax returns.

Let's be honest, no person with even an ounce of self respect or dignity would vote for Pierre Poilievre or the Conservative Party. They are not the Conservatives of the past.

Don’t call them tariffs. Call them import taxes.

Trumps just crashing the market weekly so his billionaires friends swoop in and buy stocks as they sink in prices and then calling off the tariffs so the market goes up again.

I can't wait for the documentary on CBC about the rise and epic fall of Pierre Poilievre. So happy to see this hateful little fuck slide down the polls daily. Canada doesn't need hate.

Biden was a "Jobs President" in the sense that he created lots of them. Trump is a "Jobs President" in the sense that he always loses record numbers of them.

Vermont imports $2.6 billion in goods from Canada annually, making it the state’s largest foreign trade partner. (via @vermontpublic.org)

An American President & Vice-President just berated a democratic ally for having the temerity to defend his nation against the advances of a murderous autocrat. In the history of the White House, in the history of our leadership of the free world, it’s hard to think of a more embarrassing display.

UPSET. A good friend was just diagnosed with her 2nd case of breast cancer; it has apparently spread to her lymph nodes. Please spare her life (in her 70s). She has a pet parrot I cannot care for while she is in treatment, as I am already caring for a sick bird and dealing w/ health issues myself.

The problem with people like Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk, is they lack the self-awareness and familiarity with decency to be ashamed after shockingly inappropriate or rude behavior.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.
