Why is the public forced to pay for Amazon Prime (who I am boycotting) to watch basketball? It’s disgusting. So people without that money get blocked from watching??? It really pisses me off

Opinion | Joe Rogan’s down on Trump — but he’s forever anti-vax MAHA Anthony L. Fisher: The influential podcaster continues to spread RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine gospel — and a new poll shows more Americans are growing comfortable with having measles back.

I agree. He’s killing baies with his freak theories about vaccines. I wonder how many people he killed with his ivermectin covid vaccine bullshit. He’s a disgusting uneducated human being. He’s not a serious person. #JoeRoganKills www.ms.now/opinion/joe-...

But we will prosecute you for breaking the law when you leave office. Betting big on Trump rescuing you could be a mistake.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

Very cool indeed!!

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”

Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"

Mount Shasta looms over the iron gateway to Weed, California.

Another EV road trip on the books: 1,750 mi round trip from Seattle to Santa Cruz.

Noticeably more fast chargers out there since last time we did this trip a few years ago - we never had to wait for one to open up, which wasn’t the case several years ago.

Prize for most scenic charger: Weed, CA.

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment
