* Trump Family Amasses $6 Billion Fortune After Crypto Launch @wsj.com
Remembering when the NYT went on a weeks-long bender covering a decades-old real estate deal the Clintons were involved in, in which they *lost money*.
The essay, signed by nine former directors and acting directors, comes amid a crisis surrounding President Donald Trump's firing last week of director Susan Monarez.
Such a well thought out argument.
Um, no. She didn’t make a mistake. She promoted exercise and nutrition. This nut mentions that (which is fine) but mostly spreads conspiracy theories that endanger the entire species and incite men to shoot at his employees for helping stop the spread of infectious diseases. Nothing similar.
He & elon will compete for how many painful deaths caused. Cannot believe people worship them as geniuses. What a world. www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...
Meh . . . Who needs qualified medical professionals and scientists when they’ve got a lawyer who was once addicted to heroin, had brain worms and does weird things with dead animals 🤯
"Every one of these people is taking with them skills and knowledge that will be difficult to replace. But there may be no single individual whose departure better captures what is being lost and destroyed than Demetre Daskalakis."
Woody Allen? The one who married his daughter?
😂😭😑
Come on. I thought it was a joke. This is real?
Ffs 😑😑
@derparrot.bsky.social doesn’t let us reply?
No; it’s the people who live in the burbs who talk about city life that way. Most of us living in cities aren’t afraid of ourselves. Kind of like how people in North Dakota are so terrified of the border with Mexico. 🙄
😩 everything they do is so destructive. They’re truly ruining everything good.
President Trump has ended collective bargaining rights for more than one million federal workers. Unions have sued to block the move, but agencies are terminating contracts as litigation continues.
Nine former CDC directors published a powerful op-ed about RFK Jr.‘s assault on America’s public health system. These are extraordinary public servants who made major sacrifices to protect Americans. I have tremendous respect for their courage. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
While billionaires convert the government into their private slush fund, we’re coming together to demand a country that puts workers first. #LaborDay2025
🚨When all is said and done the money that was WASTED on Alligator Alcatraz could’ve easily been the 1 TRILLION that was cut from Medicaid. There must be oversight for the OUTRAGEOUS costs: 1) Monetarily 2) Environmentally & 3) The Physical & Mental Health stress this cost people and their families.🚨
There is a fucking good reason by 14th Amendment, section 3, disbars insurrectionists from holding public office again. We're seeing it right now.
As a friend recently put it: the venn diagram of people who assured us the gun violence was worth it because we need the guns to protect ourselves against a tyrannical federal government and the people cheering on Trump as he deploys the military to take over American cities is a circle
RFK Jr: “If you’ve ever compared an unvaccinated kid to a vaccinated kid… you see the bright eyes, the engagement, the social interactions, the curiosity. And you compare them to the child who even had one or two vaccines, and they’re completely different.“ This man is an existential threat.
🫢 busted
Until about 10 years ago, I thought most or all US public schools showed that seniors in history classes.
I thought we just learned our lesson from that theory of reading turning out to be devastatingly wrong for a huge number of kids. Someone has a new one now?
His report said it “does not exonerate" the president on the issue of obstruction. He stated if he “had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so". He believed special council policy was to present evidence and it was DOJ’s decision what to do with it.
Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
The “don’t erase history” people have sent in the police to guard their erasure of history

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
Aren’t the trad wives also into baking bread? She is so full of sh!t. I’m as bleeding heart lefty as they come and also love gluten-full baguettes (Costco’s are amazing). Idaf what this woman eats or shame anyone for their bread preferences. It’s RFKjr and MAHA who is shaming her bread.

I’m not keeping score. He blocked food for people facing famine & medicine for dying babies & innocents. Fired everyone working to save lives & stop disease spread. Destroyed all the systems. Knowingly left innocents to die horrible slow deaths around the globe. All of this is on him.
Sounds like all the tech bros crying bc they didn’t get invited to every Biden state dinner, so they decided to destroy democracy and the planet instead.
Me too, but the person who has to miss a shift at work to vote, fits their quota profile, has a friend lost in ice detention, might avoid the polling place. Voter intimidation & suppression is supposed to be illegal for a good reasons
This is how I feel about what musk has done to South Africa.
You know who benefits most from antivaccine conspiracy theories as national health policy? Our enemies.
This is a must watch.
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
Ewwwwww 😷
DHS is now a megaphone for fascism. Nazi memes from a federal office prove this government is not protecting Americans, it is waging war on them. Cruelty is the point, hate is the brand, and history will remember the collaborators.
Gross. It’s always the most icky ones that are the loudest bigots, trying to convince themselves they’re somehow superior. 🤮
Looking it up now.
If you had told me in 2012 that Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign manager would be posting like this 13 years later i would not have believed you
One of the fascinating things about the Romney campaign (and I'd argue Jeb Bush's, but I had no connections there) is that it was one of the last truly strong gasps of the neoliberals fully bought into the rules-based order, both internationally and in terms of its domestic implications.
This is how they took 2024. Election fraud and stolen personal data. Isn’t this illegal? Why didn’t anyone at least try to pursue criminal or civil charges against all of this targeted fraud and stolen private data? www.salon.com/2024/09/30/r...
"President Trump’s decision to issue a Labor Day proclamation shortly after stripping union rights from thousands of civil servants, a third of whom are veterans, should show American workers what he really thinks about them." What AFGE President Everett Kelley said.
When I lived there, I thought about the brilliant leadership it must have taken to keep the lakefront open to the public and unimpeded from south side to north side all those years. I have never run as far as I could run there. It was hard to stop! Went from Hyde Park to Navy Pier & back. Beautiful
It’s a beautiful city. Especially the public parks downtown. The lake/waterfront is public and open to everyone with beautiful beaches and a bike/running trail for miles and miles south to north, spectacular views. The historic residential architecture is incredibly charming; so are the people.
Is there any legal action that can be taken? I believe elon & zuck provided user data to get targeted misinfo mail to different groups of people in 2024. People in rural PA received letters that state had selected them to host a migrant in their home. 😒 election fraud.
It’s likely CA GOP is responsible for mailers sent to Californians falsely claiming League of Women Voters opposes Prop 50, re redistricting. LWV’s statement below, they are taking a neutral position. Please spread the word. Stop the GOP disinformation. Vote for Prop 50 #Prop50 lwvc.org/prop50/
As we all know, the President's pardon power is meant to be exercised only for the benefit of people who buy enough of his personal crypto currency.
As we all know, the most reliable experts on health policy aren't doctors or researchers, but scions of wealthy families who get infected with brain worms because they get their medical information from Reddit.
As we all know, the best way to catch dangerous criminals is by arresting immigrants who voluntarily show up to court hearings to comply with the law.
As we all know, only a radical Marxist would oppose the government seizing an ownership stake in key industries, in exchange for giving them access to favored policies.
As we all know, the American Revolution was fought to ensure the chief executive could impose taxes without representation.
The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding — and indicative of a culture where they’ve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.
Many millions of us feel the same way.

Wow. Even worse than I could have imagined. Not only did they stop his whole crew from fighting an ongoing massive fire, but they did so to arrest a person brought to the US as a kid and his family’s certified visa application was based on being victims of a serious crime and helping investigators!
They’re doing all this to prevent people from MEMORIALIZING A MASS SHOOTING
😣 my god
Congratulations Trump voters and non-voters. You did this. "Pediatric Brain Cancer Group to Lose Federal Funding" www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...
There’s a guy following members of the National Guard in DC and is playing the Imperial March on a speaker while walking behind them. It’s glorious.
😞
Exactly, but they fail to see the hypocrisy. It would be funny if they weren’t taking dangerous and destructive action on a global scale every day.
Yep... he said Covid 19 was a democrat hoax, but got top medical treatment for it at Walter Reed hospital after he contracted it through his own stupidity. (Do as I say...not as I do)
When the opposite is usually true if you go back to look at the history of how someone came to live in poverty. It was greed and exploitation and inhumane treatment by someone with a lot of $$ who initially caused chaos in their lives. Poverty does cause problems of its own, but check the root cause
They were mid-tier players known for being contrarians. They were given power because of loyalty, not competency. So now, they lie: CDC didn’t insist schools close — decisions were local. The CDC didn’t “push cloth masks for three years” — but their idiot base has retconned that into reality.
I can’t imagine choosing to come here as a tourist. Seeing high school exchange students breaks my heart, knowing what their parents are reading and viewing about our government and how international people are being treated right now.
For those trivia buffs out there, real spending by foreign tourists in the U.S. has fallen at a 17.4% annual rate since Trump took office apps.bea.gov/iTable/?reqi... At least the national parks that are burning out of control will be less crowded.
Oh no 😟
This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Agree. He’s doing a lot of good for a lot of people by being so open and showing all that gratitude. All the haters should be taking notes.

Imagine working to promote immunization clinics while your boss incites a gunman to shoot at your office building with conspiracy theories that you are actually spreading disease rather than dedicating your life to stopping the spread of infectious diseases.
LET’S GO!!! #skobuffs #CUBuffs
A court ruled in our favor and declared that the President cannot impose tariffs whenever, wherever, or however he wants. This is a victory for hardworking families and businesses in New York and our nation. We will never stop fighting to protect people and their wallets.
Can we get a statement like this from every Democrat in the country?
Italians do …
The study is funny, though, because on some level it’s kind of just giving two names for the same thing. Trump is always promoting malevolence, cruelty, celebrating the pain of others at his rallies, so of course that’s who they are and what they’re into.
70-80 million of them… 😬
God they just make sh!t up and it’s always the most destructive, dangerous, awful lies you could tell.
Where’s DOGE now??? 🤔😒
Much of Trump's econ damage is slower-burning, longer-term—politicizing Fed, discarding rule of law, shaking down firms, degrading data, destroying talent pipeline, alienating trade partners etc These will have costs in the short-term, sure. But biggest costs will be evident in coming years, decades
GOP has so many trashy guys .
More or less universally a country seeking to limit foreigners studying in that country is a sign of a society, culture, great power in severe decline.
A former top official at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) dropped a bombshell in a Thursday night interview with CNN amid shakeups at the agency that include the ousting of Trump’s newly appointed director.
So he’s threatening Donald with what now?
The problem with figures like RFK Jr. isn’t just that they spread bad information. It’s that they sustain disordered counterpublics, spaces where falsehoods are reinforced through imitation of legitimate democratic processes.
Will be hard to beat the death toll due to Elon illegally ending us aid, but rfk is determined.
The damage that RFK, Jr. is doing isn't going to be repaired by simply a change in administration in '28. The cuts to research, the damage to trust in science, especially vaccines, can't be fixed overnight. It will take years. He is arguably the most dangerous person in the entire administration.
Wow.
If I were charged with a federal crime, I’d hire Pam Bondi’s brother as my lawyer. Because I don’t think this is a coincidence.
😣
Scientists have studied mRNA for decades. The vaccine has proven to be safe & effective-saving millions of lives. Researchers are working on mRNA vaccine for HIV. RFK Jr is an ignorant nut. In 2019 he visited Samoa & told ppl measles vaccine is dangerous. Tragically he was believed. 83 kids died
End mass shootings by removing treatment for depression??? This guy is going to be as deadly as Elon who left food for starving people to rot and medicine for dying babies to expire.
