Sources say that if Kash Patel cannot stop binge drinking and spending taxpayer dollars on his personal travel, Donald Trump is prepared to fire the highest ranking woman at the FBI.

Anyone know whether today is a ‘ceasefire’ day or a ‘destroy your civilisation’ day yet?

Get one of those traps that plugs into the socket

Peace, but only during trading hours

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

This is some masterful alt text - I had to look because of that slippery slab!

But they keep making the parking spots smaller …

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

ICE detaining doctors is absurd. Let me explain something: foreign-trained doctors get trained and practice in places where American medical graduates often do not want to go. They are not taking jobs from anybody. They go to undesirable locations and take undesirable jobs.

Doctors say that salmonella can kill you. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and cuts penises off dead raccoons says salmonella is good for you. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

@ross.house.gov Where do you stand?

The Dow was over 300! Why are you laughing?

Thank you. Sometimes I feel like the only person who remembers this 😂

When Democrats retake the majority, there will be a lot of priorities. As long as I'm in the Senate, one of those priorities will be consequences and accountability for any member of this administration that commits war crimes.

A final thought: the most important, efficacious, & sizeable faction on the left is plain old normie Dems, "wine moms," "resistance libs," whatever condescending term you prefer. They're the ones doing the actual work. But they are largely ignored by media, because they're organized & led by women.

From about 2008-2012, my job involved moderating comments for a news website. The characterization of T*ump as “if the comments section became president” is so accurate it hurts. And it starts with the impulse to form a contrarian, cynical opinion of everything the instant it happens.

The straight of Hormuz is still closed but the market is rejoicing because Trump issued and withdrew a crazy threat over the weekend like the madman he is. Very rational.

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

RFK Jr.’s ACIP planned to present data last week on how dangerous they believe COVID19 vaccines are.

Since the judge ruled that the members RFK Jr. installed are not legitimate, several have appeared in the media.

Not a single one has mentioned any fears about continued COVID19 vaccinations.

Our @statnews.com survey of NIH-funded researchers drew nearly 1,000 responses from 45 states (plus DC and Puerto Rico). Here's a short thread on 5 scientists' whose labs and lives have been deeply impacted by federal policies 🧵

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Every time a woman runs for president I hear that she’s too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

the reverse version of those “evolution of man” drawings

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

“I guess”.

You’ve got to be kidding me. We have totally unserious, completely incompetent people taking us into mindless deadly war.

Of course. No one wanted this war. They wanted food and health care and energy prices to go down. Now all those things will cost more.

It's a war of folly by a doddering old man who likes when things blow up and needs to distract us from the child sex ring he's connected to.
