No idea what this Oval Office announcement is. Could be resigning Could be apologizing because Stephen Miller molted all over the Residence and someone caught staff dumping the exuviae out of the window Could be clarifying that tariff revenue is really eleventy three trillion
Some new street art spotted in DC 🤣
Russia, China, & North Korea reaffirm their alliance. Meanwhile, The Dotard has shattered the trust of every US ally. Great job, Donnie Boy. apnews.com/article/chin...

If anyone missed my long-form explainers, I have great news!
Oh stop it, both the media for this idiotic reductive narrative and Dem centrists for being such astonishing wimps. The voters of NYC — especially young ones — made their clear choice, so either move along or go sit down. You win nothing by being cautious and scared www.politico.com/news/2025/09...
It's past time for every previous recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom to send their medal back to the White House with a note saying, "Thanks, but No Thanks!"
Michelle Obama: Eat an apple! Eat some vegetables! Get some exercise! RFK Jr: Autistic people sit in the corner drooling because of vaccines! Let's ban all vaccines, bring measles back and have the survival of the fittest! American Media: Michelle Obama and RFK Jr. had the exact same agenda!
Kamala Harris would not be secretly trying to deport innocent children to Guatemala if she was our president instead right now.
Y'all might want to check the ingredients of that pumpkin spice syrup you're puttin' in your coffee. Spoiler: It's a chemical sh**storm.
Oh look, it's that awkward part of collapse where you don't really have to be a fucking astrologist to see that this shit was written in the stars. #collapse
Life is a non consensual biotic freakshow with neither purpose nor meaning and though we may briefly amuse ourselves by pretending otherwise, life itself yearns for death and the second law made real.
If Trump had a stroke and lost the power of speech I might consider him adequately punished for his prolific crime.
The Department of Homeland Security posted an image of the ideological moral allocation heat map. They’re calling people who care about what happens to other living beings beyond just their family and friends, losers and their opinions invalid. /

Never, ever did I believe that SCIENCE would be eliminated from the CDC & Department of Health. The suggestion for “injecting bleach” during the pandemic was a sign, but I was in denial. I can admit it.

You know all those slasher-horror movies where they go in the haunted house or down the basement? And you scream, "OMG, how TF could they be so dumb!?" Yeah, well – that's America right now, with RFK jr as the head of HHS, including the CDC, NIH, etc. No good endings. Insane AF.
Those chatbots removing jobs. $crm salesforce www.kron4.com/news/technol...
$50 says that’s Stephen Miller wearing his skin
If you think I'm being a crass insensitive smartass about this now, wait until you see how I am if he actually does die.
You know what Trump's thinking about right now? Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and the Clintons... ...sitting in the front pew at Trump's funeral.
BREAKING: Robert F. Kennedy Jr poised to surpass gun violence as leading cause of death among American children.
Told you. Trump is like herpes, just when you think he's gone he's back.
Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.
I believe that 99% of what RFK Jr. does is motivated by: 1. Protecting his ego and vanity. He must convince people vaccines are bad b/c he can’t be wrong. Endless photos of himself exercising b/c vanity. 2. Creating conditions for his law firm to increase profits from suing various companies.
Vaccine sceptic RFK Jr has called for the retraction of a Danish study that found no link between aluminium in vaccines and chronic diseases in children — a rare move... “Kennedy has demonstrated that he wants the scientific literature to bend to his will”, says Oransky. Scientific American
Starting today, 2.4M Americans, including kids, lose SNAP food benefits. Stores like Freshly’s Market in Mississippi that serve low-income communities expect a 35–45% drop in sales. Children will go hungry & employees at Freshly's lose jobs. Welcome to trickle-down starvation.
Happy Labor Day!
The United States had one of the worst COVID outcomes in the entire world from a body count standpoint. Anyone who argues with a straight face we were TOO cautious is an unserious imbecile.
You guys see where this is going? Right?
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
I miss the old brand #CDC
the good folks at Books and Publishing asked me why I think books are essential and important.
This shot of the sun above The Brothers comes around twice a year. I've missed it quite a few times because of clouds, but it worked out pretty well tonight. I've been wanting to catch this alignment for a few years, so I'm glad I tried even though leaving the house was the last thing I wanted to do

Post a video of yourself with today’s newspaper saying this
I grew up during a time when the press would have demanded that the White House release the President's medical records and ask why no one has seen him for four days.
💯%. I've come to accept how morally depraved Donald Trump is. But I'll never get over how blindingly imbecilic he is. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
When you cut the social safety nets, you can expect people to fall and land on the streets.
This is the second judge in a week that has brought up the fact that the government can't be trusted with clear instructions - likely because the government ignored Judge Boasberg's order to turn the planes around last March saying "verbal orders from judges don't count."
Crazy idea: what if we make electricity cost more for non-residential use.
Any typos spotted in this post are happily reading a comic book while the world happens around them. If spotted, please don't mind if they fall over a few times for dramatic effect when they walk to their nan's house to help with the gardening later. It's intentional. They promise.
Priceless 😀
Hand-painted celestial escape in the Méliès fantasy THE KINGDOM OF THE FAIRIES. The film was available as an entire presentation or as separate sequences. Fairy extravaganzas were big business on the stage but the movies made them available to all.
Brilliant

Rudy Giuliani was seriously injured in a car accident. I hope he gets the same expert medical care that he would wish for a disabled transgender immigrant.
🚨🏥 AZ Rep Yassansari following up on the conditions in the — for profit prison in Eloy, AZ, holding many green card holders who have committed NO crimes. Video is broken into halves. 1/3 Please share for the world to see.
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
We won't stop until they stop ✊🏽 East LA
We haven’t had a mass school shooting in the UK in my lifetime. We have the same issues regarding mental illnesses, etc… as the US does. The difference? Gun laws. Saying “it’s not the guns” is total bullshit.
Hey Sen. James Lankford, stop your Orwellian doublespeak. We're not "jumping to conclusions" – RFKjr is a dark tetrad. He knows nothing about human healthcare. He's systematically trying to cull the American public. Remove him from office. Immediately.
May he rest in pieces. Amen.
NEW: "Long the envy of the world…the CDC finds itself no longer able to advocate for what its scientists believe the best available research shows….The agency has since January shed literally centuries' worth of collective experience through a combination of firings, retirements, and resignations."
👍🥂
NEW: Since corporate media won't call for Trump's resignation, I will. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/trump-must...
Good!
Let's give a shout out to the men & women who labor in the fields to put food on our tables. #WeFeedYou #LaborDay. Mandemosle un saludo a los hombres y mujeres que trabajan en el campo para poner comida en nuestras mesas. Thank you Ignacio Gomez for letting us use this art
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
Pick a letter.
“in six months sec. kennedy has undermined 60 years of vaccine preventable diseases in this country.” dr. tom frieden frmr dir of CDC let that sink in-the damage this regime has inflicted on us.
all the best windows software in history is called something like "joe's thing doer". it does the thing and nothing else and is available on a html website in plain text and takes up under a megabyte of space and uses default windows ui elements and will work until the heat death of the universe
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
My dream is for it to happen like it does to vampires. When the leader kicks the bucket, the rest of them burst into flames.
I’m not an ornithologist. Can anyone identify the bird in this photo?
RFK not believing in germs and now being in charge of public health is one of those things that the writers would nix from VEEP for being too outrageous.
They loaded up those planes with children - some as young as 10. I don’t believe they had a safe place to go in Guatemala. And the government did not care. This admin is the least compassionate of any in my lifetime.
If we have to become an authoritarian state, can we at least get eco-cities, bullet trains, and renewable energy?
I second this motion!
In the richest country in the world people are baking to death at home. Richard Chamblee died in Arizona two days after the central AC broke and the family couldn’t afford to repair it. His core temp was 108F/42C. He was just 52 years old. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Fifty-one of the 85 Federalist papers were written by a guy born in Nevis.
It took cops three hours to finally go into the Pulse nightclub the night of the shooting. If you wander near a crosswalk in Florida with a piece of chalk right now you'll have four cops on you in under five seconds.🤷♂️
Virginia Guiffre's book comes out on September 15, I believe. Unless Trump finds some way to prevent publication, we can expect the very welcome spectacle of the Tangerine Wankmaggot doing a swan dive from the roof of the White House. Reserve your seat now and don't forget the champagne. 🥂😎
Last night, at the final show of her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour, Cyndi Lauper brought out Joni Mitchell (for “Carey”), Cher (“Girls Just Want To Have Fun”), SZA (“True Colors”), John Legend (“Time After Time”), and more. www.stereogum.com/2321337/cynd...
Incredible cognitive functioning.
Bluesky Sunday sermon.
Clinical psychologist here. Yes, the lunatics are definitely running the asylum.
Trump and his allies have removed the webpage honoring Ira Hayes one of the Marines who raised the historic flag on Iwo Jima! Is this because he wasn’t a white man and was a Pima Native American Indian! They’re erasing our history day by day! 😡
❤️🤍💙
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.
He's not afraid of needles. He injected heroin into his own veins for 14 years.
