Make it make sense.

We let the worst people on Earth become the most powerful people on Earth, at a time when the most powerful people on Earth had ready access to the tools to destroy Earth.

Those words will be on humanity's gravestone—should any of a dozen rolling disasters cause global collapse.

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.

The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.

The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.

It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

President, Extremely Normal Brain-Wise: Pope Weak on Crime, Also I’m Dr. Jesus Christ

A+ headline.

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”.

This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.

How is the PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY OF STATE AT A UFC FIGHT in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart.

PROBABLY PLAY GOLF tomorrow too.

Here he is tonight. Working hard to end his War in Iran and make life more affordable for Americans like he promised.

Stick 'em all in one resolution, with one or down vote. Let's see who actually believes in standards of decency versus scoring bullshit partisan political points.

From a post:

“Told my wife to have dinner ready by 6 or I'll obliterate her entire civilization.

So anyway, she now charges me a fee to use the bathroom that used to be free, and I didn't get any dinner, but I'm pretty sure I won that exchange.”

I can’t believe that we’re on the brink of nuking Iran because a smart Black man in a tan suit once made fun of a reality tv host.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

It’s probably nothing. 🤡

actual nytimes headline FEMA Official Says He Teleported to Waffle House. Experts Are Dubious.

you, a naive fool: i do believe there are some things the nytimes won’t both sides

the nytimes:

Raskin: "The president might be taking from all of this the idea that he needs a more skilled fighter on his behalf, but in fact he should take it as a sign that the country has had enough of all of the obstructionism and cover up."

Footage captured from passengers on an airliner above Florida, showing the exact moment the Artemis II mission lifts off.

The seas have boiled and almost all life is gone.

Three data centers remain, solar-powered, in continuous relay with one another.

They continuously transfer electronic funds back and forth with one another, silently.

At long last, the economy is perfect.

a single vote in the court against birthright citizenship should prove to every liberal court reporter or follower that it is an illegitimate institution that should never be taken seriously and needs to be diminished or fully abolished rather than reformed

it won't be of course but it should be

A history of the top marginal tax rates on the wealthiest Americans:

1940: 81%
1950: 84%
1960: 91%
1970: 72%
1980: 70%
1990: 28%
2000: 40%
2010: 35%

For 50 years, corporate backed politicians in Congress have slashed taxes to line the pockets of their wealthy donors.

Cosplaying working class Rafael Cruz went to Princeton and Harvard. When he flees his constituents without power, he stays at the Ritz-Carlton.

His wife, Heidi, is Managing Director at the fancy investment firm Goldman Sachs.

They are not men & women with callouses on their hands. They are elites.

David Roberts -

the U.S. is basically aligning itself as the last big petrostate. And will go down with the fossil fuel ship; and China is aligning itself as the first electrostate. It is rapidly electrifying its economy, dominating the technology, supply chains, world markets, everything

Still can’t get over the House GOP rejecting a 100-0 bill from the Senate to fund TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA and… just going on vacation.

Complete abdication of duty.

The 9/11 Security Fee collects $4.49 billion annually from passengers sold as TSA funding. Congress can legally redirect it anytime and has since 2013. Either make it a protected trust fund Congress cannot touch or abolish it. You cannot charge passengers for security and spend it on the deficit.

In three months, Zohran Mamdani has:

-Delivered millions in restitution for workers cheated by fast food and delivery companies
-Cracked down on bad landlords
-Launched the first stage of a universal childcare program
-Fixed thousands of potholes in NYC streets

This is what leadership looks like.

This 1990 speech by Carl Sagan is timely times two:

#war #climate

a woman in a blue shirt is making a funny face while pointing up . ALT: a woman in a blue shirt is making a funny face while pointing up .

Fun fact: The privatization of TSA is in Project 2025.

"The man who is really responsible for what we're doing -- I mean, in a legal, prosecutorial sense -- is our boss Stephen Miller."
