The National Science Foundation which funds a quarter of all basic scientific research in the country is being dismantled.

The average person doesn’t give a fuck if AI has some niche use where it actually excels if used properly. In fact, that is what a tool is *supposed* to do and none of us will have a problem if it is used like that. What we see is AI fucking up real life in a massive way.

The fact that Mamdani just seems like a cheerful normal guy who's policies are things like "we're going to tax second homes to fund pothole repairs" or whatever and yet this generates panicked responses like "This is basically Stalin's great purge turned up to eleven" is... telling. It tells things.

Lying from the White House Podium is now a family tradition.

Your daily reminders:

*He IS in the files.
*He DID know Epstein.
*He IS a pedophile.
*He IS a felon.

JCAC Leave your feedback By — Ali Swenson, Associated Press RFK Jr. says he's launching a podcast to expose 'lies' that have made Americans sick

Tim Robinson in I think you should leave courtroom sketch saying “don’t do the voice.”

that’s okay I’ll just put some marbles down my garbage disposal and listen to that

"The Crusades, like the Confederacy, ended in ignominious defeat. But as with other 'lost causes', they maintain a powerful appeal to reactionary minds who luxuriate in grievance and take comfort in glorious hypotheticals."

Gotta make these for real

The best explanation why millions of Americans worship and support a convicted felon and sexual predator...

The whole thing about Democrats searching for a winning message for the midterms is infuriating because it is staring them in the face:

Rule of Law — People who do illegal shit should face consequences.

For insider trading. For illegal wars. For ignoring court orders. For being a pedophile.

MY DOG'S VET: who's a good boy? who's the handsomest boy? do you want a cookie? does the handsome good boy want a cookie? does the handsomest best boy ever want a cookie?

MY HUMAN DOCTOR: you look fatter and paler than I remember, sit down

there are grown adults who believe the military is going over there to save the people of iran. we aren't saving people HERE. is everyone ok?

May I with right and conscience make this claim?

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy

it's molting season for RFK Jr

TBH at this point I've defaulted to "Nobody who voted for an obvious criminal cares about crime, stop acting like they do."

I must have tried it 20 times. 😤

When someone illegally takes your money, that’s called stealing.

Donald Trump stole your money with his illegal tariffs — and you paid higher prices on everything from housing to groceries.

It’s time for Trump to pay up and give back your money.

Community meme: I CAN EXCUSE FASCISM. BUTI DRAW THE LINE AT MERCANTILISM.

The Supreme Court:

The former President of South Korea has been convicted of insurrection and sentenced to life.

Former Prince Andrew faces life in prison in the UK over his Epstein ties.

The orange felon committed insurrection and is fully tied to Epstein and was sent to the WH. The US is sick.

Personally, I think it’s bad that a wildly corrupt pedophile with dementia is President of the United States and is trying to make himself dictator for life.

tweet from @cliftonhowze on twitter Last night at the #DataCenters meeting in Claremore, Darren Blanchard, who has attended most of these meetings around NE Oklahoma & has some pretty impressive FOIA/ORA skills, was arrested after going over his 3 min. allotted speaking time. First arrest I've seen at one of these.

in america, if you go over your 3 minute allotment to speak, men with guns come to take you away.

Wondering if any republicans in Congress who flipped out when Clinton and Lynch ran into each other, or wouldn’t shut up about Jack Smith “conspiring” with Biden, would have anything to say about this shit.

Nailed it.

love to be looted by our criminal president

Every news story is now “State Senator Randy Pervert (R-Springfield) was indicted on 8 counts of lewd behavior with a child under 12 and has been put on paid leave from his two jobs as Border Patrol liaison and youth pastor at First Presbyterian (PCA) where parishioners say they were ‘blindsided.’”

I have this on my wall, with thanks to the artist

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is
