He means white people.

Wow imagine that
9 former directors of the CDC penned an op-ed stating that what Robert F. Kennedy has done to the nation's public health system is "unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced" www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
Brilliant
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Hella expensive Gardners…. To the taxpayers!
No fooling!!!!!!
NEW: Social Security’s chief data officer, Charles Borges, has resigned, three days after submitting a whistle-blower complaint that alleged members of DOGE had uploaded the confidential personal information of hundreds of millions of Americans to an insecure cloud server.
Unfortunately, the trolls got in. Really enjoyed seeing you more, Mark, and we need your perspective on healthcare! And many other things!
Facts
Little kids being killed in mass is Jesus's way of letting you know he's sending all your prayers to voicemail.
And we are paying their salary, housing, meal and transpo costs.
Its Texas.
No doubt she is home schooling the young-uns….
No doubt most of those bought with aid dollars that we pay for from the donor states.
Solve the health and violence crisis, easily!

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.
It’s been 17 days since Trump militarized DC. Crime is on the rise. Trump owns it.
Cassidy sucks. He is responsible for this mess.
That just earned an unfollow. So thankful for all Nancy has done.
Dopes!
How about the health of the children who were maimed and killed by the most preventable type of health crisis, today??
This individual is now Robin and used to be Robert. While it is typically white males with psychological issues, this time it is a trans woman with psychological issues.
The average American reads at the 6-7th grade level.
Breaking News: FEMA suspended about 30 employees who had told Congress that the Trump administration had gutted the nation’s emergency preparedness.
Exactly what I was thinking! And on Michigan Ave and the Riverwalk/lake path!
If a fictional admiral in Battlestar Galactica can figure this out in the middle of a robot invasion maybe Earth can too.
It’s that time of year again. Teachers, THANK YOU for what you do. If you need help stocking your room this year, please drop a link to your Classroom Wishlists in the comments! I’ll get as much as I can, and there are always some great members of the community who chip in too!
Its fine, seriously.
And they will definitely NOT place them in the areas where residents could use their help.
Respectfully, with the Tech Bros directing him??

The Bolton raid should chill you: my emergency video (full video linked) adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...
Putin meets alone with Trump. A week later, US intelligence is gutted by Tulsi Gabbard. FBI goes after John Bolton. Had Putin ordered it through Amazon, could not have been more efficient.
Here is how the media should be reporting this morning's news. As part of a growing pattern of political retribution, Donald Trump's FBI has raided the home of a prominent administration critic. In this instance it happens to be John Bolton. The pretense is largely irrelevant.
90% of US immigration detention is done by private corporations that have multi–million dollar contracts with ICE. With a clear reliance on these companies, the Trump admin allocated $45 billion to carry out its mass deportation of immigrants.
BREAKING: Trump blinked. After vowing an executive order to kill mail-in voting, the White House suddenly walked it back. This is a win, but make no mistake, Republicans are still coming for your vote. Stay ready. MORE: rollcall.com/2025/08/20/w...
Putin demands for Ukraine: 1. Give up all of Donbas 2. No NATO membership, ever 3. No Western troops in Ukraine 1. No 2. Fuck no 3. Eat a dick www.reuters.com/world/china/...
Trump claims his militarized takeover of DC has made people feel safer to go out to restaurants, but in fact restaurants in DC have seen the number of diners plummet more than 25% since he sent feds into the street. @jordanonrecord.bsky.social www.wusa9.com/article/news...
Spreading misinformation and generating distrust of vaccines isn't just reckless, it could be deadly. Somebody should let RFK Jr. know that vaccines save lives. Full stop.
The United States national debt has officially surpassed $37 trillion, a record-breaking figure that arrived years ahead of government forecasts. According to the Treasury Department’s latest report
Europe stands with Ukraine. 🇺🇦
Watching Rubio flail and twitch on Face The Nation defending Russia and pretending that both sides of the war are morally equivalent is the work of a man desperate to be President when Trump is gone and terrified of offending the pro-Putin MAGA base.
Trump wanting a Nobel Peace Prize *this nakedly* is so thirsty and pathetic.
Dumbassery.
What this guy said!
💯💯💯💯
Even Fox News thinks Putin tossed Trump aside like a subordinate, dirty old dishrag at the Alaska Summit.
Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.
The red carpet is the blood stains of all the atrocities committed.
Not only is this fucking embarrassing, I can’t imagine how much counterintelligence work is going to be required after this trip. Having a hostile head of state in the presidential limo is *insane*
His butt is so yyyuuuge. He can barely fit on the chair.
That is no way to get the prize.
They can’t. The whole thing was a farce. Putin spent a lot of time talking about US-Russia trade deals. I’m betting this was all a pretext to reduce sanctions and open trade with Russia. That’s speculation on my part, of course.
Street gangs.
WTF….she was….a model?
Fantastic. Let’s release *all* the files and expose everyone in them, regardless of political party. This isn’t a left vs right issue, it’s a basic human decency issue.
🤣🤣
This is A+ trolling
good trouble.

Listening to the pussy grabbing EPSTEIN accomplice wife cheater during this press conference has me questioning how in the world America voted this sewer dwelling dipshit into office & how America seems incapable of putting a stop to his destruction of our Democracy and economy.
Release the Epstein files!

Heck, yes.
1/3 I.C.E. is now a recruitment center for the worst of society. It’s also a literal Army he is building to prevent his removal from office. Recruiting the National Guard to assist ICE? Don’t be fooled.
He is very confused these days.

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.
The White House has finally decided some of its DOGE-directed firings were a mistake. The National Weather Service has received permission to hire hundreds back—including 126 “front-line mission critical” personnel whose need became especially apparent in the wake of Texas' floods. trib.al/fXR3w2X
Spread this far and wide. If you go back on my timeline shortly after Trump won in 2024…and said this is exactly what would happen. I did. Well…it is. Soon enough? We’ll see.

You’ve heard of Donald Trump. But have you heard of Russell Vought? He’s the man behind Project 2025—a 900-page roadmap for dismantling democracy and rebuilding it in the image of the far-right. Six months in, Trump is executing this plan step-for-step. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/project-20...
"For more than a year Trump, 79, has exhibited odd behavior at campaign events, in interviews, in his spontaneous remarks & at press conferences. " Credit to @us.theguardian.com for tackling this issue. More news outlets should show some spine & do the same. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Don’t post about it.
So many technocrats have no moral compass. More ethics and business sustainability need to imbedded in their training.

Where can I order these pierogi? ❤️
Right??
A university scientist who discovered alarming levels of toxic chemicals in a lake in southeastern Louisiana was abruptly removed from her research position this week without explanation
It’s about damn time
Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “It makes me sick that she is claiming to be a victim. This is the same woman that grabbed my arm and forced me into a room to be raped by Jeffrey. She had this evil smirk on her face. And she enjoyed it.” ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social
Worth remembering: The Constitution explicitly gives the power to set tariffs to Congress. They could stop this nonsense by the end of the day.
