One of the real reasons Donnie Dotard paused his tariffs. There were NOT 75 countries kissing his fat orange ass!! medium.com/wall-street-...

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

Pierre Poilievre is Big Oil’s useful idiot “Poilievre has voted against the environment 400 times in 20 years — no surprise, given that his inner circle is stacked with fossil fuel lobbyists.” An editorial by @taylornoakes.com.

Peter Navarro: "90 deals in 90 days is possible."

When will Justice be served? Our Democracy depends on it. So far, the US is in free fall. We lost our allies, no longer the world leader, and became a declining country. We are experiencing the beginning of the end of a once-powerful country.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

The unbridled assault on “Science” is just irrational and so very dangerous! These ignorant acts could have immeasurable negative impacts for generations…

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

I keep thinking about how women are most at risk of being murdered by abusive men after they've decided to leave the relationship and it's not exactly a subtle comparison to what's being done to the USA at the moment

Yesterday, Japan openly voiced its desire to work closely with NATO on protecting 🇺🇦 Today, 🇨🇳 spoke against this newly proposed cooperation using the same tactics as Putin, who spoke against the expansion of NATO - which he, ultimately, caused by his aggression against 🇺🇦 as 🇫🇮 & 🇸🇪 joined the alliance

If you want to win a trade war, you gotta have something to trade that other side wants. And we're in a trade war with the very people who make all the things WE want. You're not going to win that.

ICE apparently is Running with the excuse that they meant to say “intellectual property” when they said “ideas.” That would be less ominous but also less intelligible: how does IP cross borders? Are foreign firms smuggling our trademarks out of the country? Also, I don’t believe them.

Here is an up to date list of Big Law collaborators along with how much in free legal services they have pledged to Trump's causes. Paul Weiss 40M Cadwalader 100M Milbank 100M Skadden Arps 100M Willkie Farr 100M A&O Shearman 125M Kirkland & Ellis 125M Latham & Watkins 125M Simpson Thacher 125M

Greater Washington Partnership launches job board to support laid-off federal workers www.bizjournals.com/washington/n...

💥 400+ general counsels sign open letter: “We oppose the targeting of lawyers and firms, and the resulting chilling effects on the legal profession and the business environment. We support lawyers and firms who endeavor to stand up to these threats and those that support their targeted peers”

MAJORLY important. This is the Judicial branch of our government reserving and preserving their Constitutional powers. No trifecta for Trump. If 4 GOP Reps would grow a set and caucus with the Dens to liberate the House, they would increase their re-electability and they would be effing heros.

On this day in 1999, the town of Springfield was flooded but everything was coming up Milhouse.

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

Eighteen months before the midterms, the Republican National Committee is litigating more than 40 cases aimed at making voting more difficult. In North Carolina, the GOP is literally trying to steal a state Supreme Court seat won by a Democrat last November.

Word on the street is that China slapped a 34% tariff on U.S. imports (not 35, not 33) - apparently to match the number of felony charges Trumplethinskin has.

FINALLY FRIDAY

This is exactly why we need to be organized in our defense of the freedom to read. The book banners are organized & we'll funded. But they are also unpopular. Our numbers can beat their money

Killer sign. A+++ sign

What’s going on in America right now is called a shock and awe campaign.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

My thing for @bylinetimes.bsky.social is a bit different this week. And it has no paywall (yay!). Me on my cancer. With jokes and a happy ending. Not that kind of happy ending. Get your mind out of the gutter, Doris. www.bylinesupplement.com/p/russell-jo...

…caveat…a Trump press secretary

President Donald Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi and other top officials Thursday to investigate two of his former first-term officials who publicly refuted his baseless claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent and criticized his chaotic administration from within.

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

#BlueSkyVets CQ Brown was dismissed for “serving while Black” by an administration desperately trying to project “White male” dominance; one problem, this appoint had no bipartisan input as it was done in the still of the night… #ProudBlueVets #DemsUnited #DemVoice1 www.stripes.com/theaters/us/...

Let’s make sure they all hear about it…👇 You know what to do. 😎✨

🚨BREAKING: North Carolina Supreme Court rejects Republican effort to disqualify more than 60,000 votes in close judicial election. However, GOP dominated court rules 4-2 that several thousand other ballots must be "cured" to be counted. Democratic candidate will continue legal fight in Fed court.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

It's been a rough week for the NOAA family, including feds, contractors, and scientists across this country / world. I need to say something very important. It is my motivation to get you the weather, water and climate data you need, regardless of what has, or will happen to us.

"It was eight last week, 50 now," said Hayden Nguyen, the co-chair of SJP at ASU and a sophomore studying business policy and management. "We don't know where it's going to be next week, and we need to build a really strong movement." www.statepress.com/article/2025...

They are trying…and making headway toward their goal every day…to squeeze every last breath out of the lungs of democracy. At that point, they plan to stomp on the lifeless corpse. You already know that, but sometimes it helps to see it in print. If we let it slip away…it’s gone forever.
