Only everybody.
Our HHH Secretary thwarts science every which way he can.
Not pretty 🤢
Exactly the sort of progress The Felon and Neanderthal Climate Guy Lee Zeldin are reversing.
They are MONSTERS!
Kennedy must be removed from office. He has already caused a catastrophe at HHS and the CDC. I strongly suspect that he is about to use data manipulated by unscrupulous and unqualified individuals to attempt to falsely show that vaccines are in some way a net harm. He simply must be stopped.

Surely, the decision to hold a military spectacle at that time is just coincidence.
Khanna: It’s going to be a bombshell press conference tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. The American people will hear directly from survivors of the Epstein abuse. And they’re not just going to talk about Epstein’s and Maxwell’s abuse — they’re going to talk about rich and powerful men…
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
This guy 😍
Are you cry-laughing or laugh-crying right now?
EVEN THOUGH the L.A. deployment was ruled illegal: A federal judge in California said Mr. Trump broke the law by deploying roughly 5,000 Marines and National Guard troops to Los Angeles in response to immigration protests.
Telling Jews to “go back to Poland,” when 90% of Poland’s Jews were murdered in the Holocaust—and those who returned after faced endless violence—has nothing to do with Gaza and everything to do with wanting Jews to be killed.
Republican governors have sent National Guard troops to Democratic-led Washington, D.C., even though cities in their states all have higher rates of violent crime than the nation’s capital. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
Add Gov. DeSantis to the list of loyalists who’ve been burned by The Felon 🔥

Awesome! Can you recommend a way to learn needlepoint?
Look I know there have been some spats on here lately but if you want something unifying to loathe — per WSJ, Kyrsten Sinema is apparently cashing in substantially on Trump 2.0, touting her personal ties to the administration and her shaping of some of its EOs in areas like AI
Not a single personal insult. No parentheses or all-caps. Full sentences. Adjectives other than "beautiful" and "tremendous." No masturbatorial bloviating. He ded.

Wishing everyone a GRATEFUL Labor Day 💪
I heard it firsthand at Eloy Detention Center: women are given used underwear—causing rampant UTIs—and people with cancer are denied specialists. These human rights abuses are bankrolled under Trump with billions in taxpayer dollars. Unacceptable. We’re demanding change.
YES, YOU CAN. Just check “yes” next to “Do you have a preexisting condition” on the pharmacist’s form and they’ll administer the shot, no questions asked.

1) What took her so long? 2) Take the gloves off, darlin'.
Imagine being so vile that millions of people around the world will celebrate when you die? And may I add, it will be well deserved.
It's going to be the weirdest thing watching every news network trying to sell "a nation in mourning" while Kool & the Gang's "Celebration" becomes the new national anthem.

The Gray Lady continues pitching 100% softballs. Meanwhile, Halloween 🙄
Finally.
Follow Robert Reich. He's always right.
EVERY CITY must do this.
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...

Is this what they talked about during that 40-minute phone conversation that disrupted the summit? Or is it just about how little respect Putin has for The Felon and any "agreement" he might choose to make?
Remember when COVID vaccines were first available? Remember how they saved lives and helped us move toward normalcy? Remember how relieved and grateful we were? Remember how amazing our healthcare workers were? Remember how science rescued us?
140 school shootings in the US just this year so far. There is something deeply wrong with American society.
I’d expect this in Moscow or Beijing. But in D.C.? Open your eyes.
I don't want to live in a country where 10-year-olds are on the news talking about how their friends saved them by lying on top of them during a shooter incident... and got shot. Thanks, GOPNRA.
The lawsuit comes after Cook’s lawyer had vowed to sue the president.
Record lows. You are not alone!
Per: Heather Cox Richardson
Dr. Demetre, in his resignation from the CDC, said this: “I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people”. It is an outrage that RFK Jr. remains as head of HHS.
I had serious doubts about CDC Director Monarez’s willingness to stand up against RFK Jr.’s personal mission to destroy public health in America—I’m glad that I was wrong. If there are any adults left in the White House: we cannot let RFK Jr. burn what's left of CDC. FIRE HIM.

Cartoon by @andertoon.bsky.social. Another school shooting...
Monarez is playing her weak hand perfectly, and should be a model for institutional resistance for the next four years: 1. Make them fire you 2. Don’t go along to get along 3. Don’t apologize, have confidence in your own integrity and the importance of your role 4. Always escalate the conflict
This is how eugenicists talk and is an attitude which underpins a not insignificant number of history’s worst atrocities.
