Trump, his 'low IQ' slur, and the right's race obsession

So now Pete Hegseth has fired the Secretary of the Navy and the Chief of Staff of the Army, both in the middle of a war, both with no public or known explanation? Seems fine.

It Was on Your Table Every Morning Growing Up. It’s Dying Before Our Eyes. No One Wants to Face It. The powerhouse of American citrus is suffering a brutal decline. Everyone has a theory about why.

Totally off-topic, but did y'all the know the Free State of Florida's citrus industry is basically dead??

This is quite a story:

Priceless post from the official White House social media

North Carolina, a 51 percent Trump state

"Now, not even 25 years later, the United States Department of Agriculture was forecasting a pitiful 12 million boxes of oranges, the least in more than 100 years, the worst year since last. A decline of more than 95 percent."

Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden.

This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years.

But he’s the one who is actually doing it.

Yes for her sadly I don’t get to see it like we did JWST because it was badged employees only and no personal pictures allowed

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer.

Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul.

Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

It’s BS the military can’t do that

You are right it was Blue Origin mark 1

An excellent write up

Something just came out of the giant vacuum chamber for testing. I thought it was this one, but I’ll double check with my wife when she gets home.

My wife got to see it at JSC

Blaming Bezos for a failed Blue Origin launch is as spurious as blaming Musk for a failure at SpaceX. They have plenty of actual engineers doing this work.

And how is that supposed to be different than what Tim Cook was doing?

2025 Politico headline: Trump on Texas redistricting: ‘We are entitled to 5 more seats’

John Gramlich skeet quoting Trump in NYT today: Trump: “I don’t know if you know what gerrymandering is, but it’s not good.”

A sowing/reaping for the ages

Democrats getting more backlash for attempting redistricting in Virginia in response to completely unprecedented GOP powergrabs than Republicans have gotten for gerrymandering for decades is extremely grim shit ngl.

What could go wrong?

I can hear my instructor "500 feet, no usable runway left, gear up"

Most Americans know what it would take to fix our broken country

- Abolish Citizens United
- Outlaw foreign influence
- End the electoral college
- Tax the oligarchs
- Reestablish rule of law
- Strict separation of church & state

It’s whether we have the courage to change our self-destructive ways

Given the current state of American democracy, many of you are wondering what you can do to fight Trump’s authoritarianism.

Pennsylvania’s @GovernorShapiro has one suggestion: show up.

Whether it be at the polls or your local school board meeting, it all matters.
