Yeah. I hear you. It's not great to break in some new shoes on a trip. Even if that's normally when we are motivated to buy them. Have a great and safe trip!!

I've kind of been in that situation before..but I have to admit that I don't run. But I do do a lot of steps when I travel. Does that count?
Enjoy your trip!!

I'm so sorry (but not surprised) to hear that. Thank you for volunteering!

Exactly what I was thinking. She said it wouldn't even fund one more research project, but, even before that it would be a wage and supply cut for every other project. Cuts to scientists wages in light of inflation. Cuts to projects in light of supply cost increases.

BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research?

RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI

B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

Imagine sucking on the teet of Trump for financial gain. Imagine dissing former best ally for money. Well, that is Howard #Lutnick and apparently that is who his family is as he is promoting them. (otherwise I would give his family a pass, but clearly they are fine with his abhorrent behaviour.)

Hey Lutnick. Fuck you.

Not sorry.

Signed, Canada.

This is glaringly obvious to everyone except for the faces of corporate media, who desperately want to walk a red carpet

If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.

Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.

This is what corporate greed looks like.

Yup, but also how about election finance reform? Gotta stop the lobby groups and billionaires from buying the politicians. AIPAC ad stated that they were the biggest funders of Democrats (and huge to Republicans as well, of course). Only individuals should be able to contribute and cap the amount.

Totally awesome article by George Froehlich, American Pulse Editor.

A Canada that Canadians forgot we could be with a strength & resilience the US never knew we had but is now seeing.

In the year of our Lord 2026,

On the second Sunday of Easter,

Also known as Divine Mercy Sunday,

A convicted felon accused His Holiness the Pope of being weak on crime.

Man. Person. Camera. Jesus. Doctor.

Just like their nuclear sites were obliterated last summer and their air force and anti-air obliterated during this war. Just like we won already. Just like we don’t need the strait but need the strait and need help but don’t and we made a deal but need to make a deal.

Guys a fucking bozo.

WE OBLITERATED THEIR NAVY LIKE WE DID THEIR NUCLEAR BUNKER LAST YEAR. OBLITERATED, BUT THEY MAY STILL HAVE SOME SHIPS...

Maddow: "Amid all of this insanity it may be a good time to remember that this kind of desperation from the White House and from the president is palpably driven by fear."

Hillary Clinton was right about everything.

Kamala Harris was right about everything.

Both would’ve been incredible Presidents and I remain proud AF to have cast my vote for them.

If you think the Pope is a radical leftist, wait till you meet his boss.

Mark Carney and the Liberals are projected to secure a majority government in Canada, crossing the 172-seat threshold after key by-election wins—including a commanding victory in University–Rosedale. 🇨🇦

Calling people antisemitic, because they are against Israel and Netanyahu is pure gaslighting. You want to shut down the conversation.
Israel the state is NOT Israel of the Bible.
Zionism is a political ideology.
You don’t get to slaughter an entire country and claim victim.

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.

May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.

this is a boring take but if we want this from a Dem President in 2029 we need to deliver the type of huge legislative majority Magyar just achieved and not the razor-thin one that Biden was forced to work with.

Prime Minister Mark Carney throws down the gauntlet with his first sentence: women’s right to choose.

Liberal MPs must vote pro-choice on any abortion-related bills/motions, regardless of their personal beliefs.

Conservative MP’s can/do vote anti-choice: www.arcc-cdac.ca/media/anti-c...

Look at the women at NASA.

They are the ones pushing the boundaries of science, solving problems most people can’t even understand, and carrying this country forward, while our politicians right now posture and stumble through talking points.

And they are doing it all with joy.👇

People of Hungary - we are begging you. 🙏🏻

Wow. Hungary is ready for change.
