I have lost all patience with the apparently unshakeable conviction that striking a reasonable, moderate pose means assuming the sincerity of transparently pretextual horseshit. Donald Trump does not care about reducing crime in DC. He is testing and normalizing paramilitary deployments in cities.

😂😂😂😂

Newsom can't be President because he's an asshole with bad politics but he can absolutely goad the current President into doing dumb and loud shit and there is no greater need in the moment than a loathsome fuck to anger and annoy the other loathsome fuck

That being said, allegations of the USG suppressing information and news reporting to the rest of the world surprises me, 0%

Thank you - the comparison of Gifford to what occurred in LA in January is at best really ill informed and at worst bad faith communication with respect to the example of how Big News isn’t being covered or isn’t being transmitted globally.

Also, this plot never fails to scare me. All of recorded human history - domesticated crops, cities, religion, etc. - happened during an anomalously stable period in our climate history. Our efforts have now pushed us out of that zone. Humans existed before then... but we were migratory.

California panel opposes SpaceX’s bid to nearly double Vandenberg SFB launches

The California Coastal Commission has unanimously voted against SpaceX’s plan for a dramatic expansion of rocket launches from Vandenberg Space Force Base, citing environmental and regulatory concerns.

This divided decision willfully ignores the Administration’s lawless attempt to destroy an agency created by Congress that has helped millions.

But the Administration cannot yet resume its illegal attempt to shut down the CFPB.

The fight continues.

MAGA Attacks on Women In Hyperdrive 'Christian' nationalists, right wing podcast bros, and MAGA politicians have formed an axis of evil against women — men must step up to fight back

Nationalist Christians (Nat-Cs) want to repeal the 19th Amendment.

MAGA pod bros demand women "owe" men sex as "marital debt."

MAGA politicians are banning repro health, Mifepristone, & Medicaid.

All men must step up to stop these violent attacks. My latest:

Exclusive: VA curbs maternity leave following White House cancellation of union contract Last week, the VA was the first federal agency to terminate a union contract.

The Trump administration is anti-worker, anti-family, anti-veteran. Union busting is disgusting. www.axios.com/2025/08/15/v...

Not only is Clark the second most powerful House Democrat, her photo is also featured on AIPAC's website, with the caption: "We stand with those who stand with Israel."
And now Clark just admitted Israel is committing genocide.

Judges need to start seeing around corners. These m’f’k’rs are textbook bad faith actors, through and through. They forfeited all deference and judicial forbearance long ago.

Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪

ADORABLE ! ! ! !

The only thing I have to say about the email SSA sent out and the attached letter to the American people is this: none of the data matches the lived experience of myself or any employee I know or have talked to. Once again, I can’t access the data needed to rebut the cute graphs Commish Frankie 1/?

Then wrap em em’ in butcher paper and throw ‘em in a plastic sack

Trump refers to Obama officials as "Clapper and Comer and that whole group of criminals ... that is a criminal group of people, they are sick people and they are criminals and they should be taken care of."

Cancelling mRNA studies is the highest irresponsibility The rest of the world is not following the US government’s dangerous path, and will stick with the technology that helped the world out of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Public confidence in vaccines isn’t boosted by governments cancelling science...removing funding for a cutting-edge technology that has saved lives will leave people less protected when the next pandemic strikes. It is irresponsible and will slow global progress."

The US military has a golden opportunity to lock them both in a room and not let them out.

Red - the juice of tomatoes!

Mamdani is not only the Democratic Party nominee, but he also won Jeffries district by a significant margin. This is disgraceful.

DC Union Station tonight. Unreal.

Trumps going to be waiting like a dog greets its master coming to the door; and Putin is gonna dog-walk him as usual

Depending on AI to do things for us, will only make us dumber.
