A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

Morning Blue Hour at Mount Fujisan.

submitted 10 days ago • 9 comments

Early morning Mount Fuji. I love the twilight light from the opposite direction of a sunrise, especially with mountains. This was late autumn season, when I saw lots of autumn leaves at the bottom of the lake. Taken with a CPL to make them visible.

"The Associated Press sued three Trump administration officials Friday over access to presidential events, citing freedom of speech" The president set a precedent by banning them for not writing"Gulf of America"and they rightly want that precedent overturned apnews.com/article/ap-l...

I just heard...about 5 minutes ago...Rachel Maddow said that Trump has announced he is going to INCINERATE $500 MILLION dollars of COVID-19 tests...that taxpayers have ALREADY paid for. Something needs to happen...fast. This is bullshit that cannot continue. This. Cannot. Continue.

Donald Trump is taking America out of NATO to join the Warsaw Pact. Well done, my Republican friends. You have no character, no conviction, and your legacy will be the betrayal of the Greatest Generation's sacrifice. You are a disgrace and will be remembered for who you are.

Stephen Miller is totally stable—if stable means seething with unhinged rage every time he speaks. Maybe a nice padded room would do him some good. Also, @cnn.com why are you letting guests verbally abuse your hosts?

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

Spending time watching this beautiful barn owl to learn its routine, so we can position ourselves for the perfect shot. Still a little too far for the photos I want, but an absolute joy to watch 😍🦉 #barnowl #WildlifePhotography #birdphotography #naturephotograhpy #owl #ukbirds #surrey #nikon

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...

Rep. Crockett is correct here. RFK Jr has blood on his hands, a lot of it from children. We have to fight his lies as much as we can. Literally, very very literally, lives are on the line. Millions, likely, if he suppresses vaccines and research into deadly diseases.

Minnesota House Republicans advance bill to get undocumented immigrants off state funded healthcare. The Minnesota Farmers Union is against the bill. "Farmers and our food system rely on people new to our country." Did anyone think about what mass deportation will do to the cost of food?

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

#birds #leucism #albino #crow #albino This white crow lived nearby when we moved here and we saw it almost daily for about 7 years. This is the best pic I got. I just noticed the black crow also has some white on the wings. Possible we could see another white crow from this family in the future?
