Shit. I just got an email from my union with a report attached announcing 3,400 Permanent Seasonal Employees (PSEs- which I am) getting fired. I've worked for the Forest Service for 23 years and was 2 years from retirement. My life plan has been completely blown up by a S. African drug addict.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump, visibly confused and rambling, forgot why he was in the Oval Office—to swear in Tulsi Gabbard as DNI. Instead, he tried to leave without doing it, leaving even Newsmax stunned. At almost 79 years old, the decline is undeniable. This is not normal.

If you're wondering why some of us seem more angry at Democrats than Republicans it's because Republicans loudly announced all the evil shit they planned to do, Democrats fund-raised off of it for months, then after losing the election just slunk away and pouted in a pile of feigned incompetence.

This is exactly what progressives said would happen and yet Biden/the Democrats chose to champion this ban and make themselves the face of it bc they care more about passing authoritarian policies like a TikTok ban than listening to their own constituents (none of whom wanted this ban)
