Billionaire presidential adviser Elon Musk called entitlement spending — benefits including Social Security and Medicare — key targets for cuts, an assertion that directly contradicts President Donald Trump’s pledge to not touch those programs.
Tuberculosis, the deadliest infectious disease on the planet, kills more than 1.25M people a year. New infections are expected to surge by 30% as a result of closing USAID, a memo says. The increase will inevitably lead to cases in the U.S.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex condemned ICE’s detainment of Mahmoud Khalil, calling it a “tyrannical” move. “If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too."
A cowardly draft dodger and his trained pitbull bullied a world hero. The world took note.
Trump and Vance just made Zelensky one of the most popular leaders in the world.
JD Vance is loathsome
Oooo I'm intrigued!! This sounds like a great story!
A reminder: USAID helped bring about the end of apartheid in South Africa.
USAID is 1% of the overall budget. If we no longer give foreign aid to other countries, China will happily step in the gap and thus usurp American international influence.

Sad, that this is our new reality…👇 Always. Resist. ✨
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is a perfect role model for all of us. #Resist
This Carter Center photo from a highly specific angle that hides that terrible man behind a pillar is FEEDING ME 🤣
If Joe Biden was senile he wouldn’t be speaking this well. Other than appointing Garland he is one of the best Presidents.
This is 100% accurate 🎯 #TrumpCoupAttempt #RIPPresidentCarter
I'd sure love to see Jason Carter run for President. #JimmyCarter #JimmyCarterFuneral
I just loved #EarthAbides! 🌎 And it’s true, the earth WILL survive us. Hopefully a few of us will hang in there too, and get it right this time.

a what now?
The “murder hornet” has been eradicated in the U.S. five years after it was found in Washington State, officials say. A massive mobilization has eliminated the invasive species from that hot spot and the nation, at least for now. nyti.ms/3By69PS
Landed in America to discover our incoming co-presidents have torpedoed the government funding bill. Merry Christmas to all Federal Employees
He lies and lies and no one cares.
In our post-truth society, this should be so important. But no one cares.
This will all go away over the next four years.
Omg 🤯 is that the one about the house producing meals, doing laundry, performing housework for a family long dead in a future long without humans?? Thank you! ☺️ I’d forgotten it, amazing. Must go find and read!
Reminds me of that episode of Black Mirror where an AI-powered Amazon factory keeps cranking out and shipping products in a distant future where no one wants them… in fact they’re trying to scratch out crops from damaged soil…

Patients are struggling to pay ever-increasing sums for health insurance as huge corporations such as Minnetonka-based UnitedHealth Group report billions in profit and grant enormous pay to executives.
Facebook and Instagram both down? “That’s so Meta” 😜
😂
GTFO ASAP OMG
I would change it to Google 😜
Agree! Those are real things!! A list I can work with ✔️
What should we do then. I’m ready. Tell me what to do.
I canceled all of that November 6. In fact I don’t even do NPR news shows any more… I need something new to listen to while preparing dinner! Podcast recommendations eagerly welcomed!
All of that will be dismantled, quickly. Perhaps as part of that “one terribly violent day” or whatever he promised.
I keep waiting to stop feeling homesick for hope. Every day I miss what might have been. Sometimes I think I need to get up and get going, but then I think—why bother, if this is what the majority really wants?
Well isn’t a prerequisite to be some sort of criminal in order to get into this Cabinet?
I remember going to the marches during Trump’s first term, carrying a sign that said THIS IS NOT NORMAL. Now, I have no idea what normal is. What is it? Does it even exist?
That one I’m all over 🤣 Seems like they don’t always. Is the thing.
I confess that sometimes I have a hard time distinguishing the “resistance grifters” from the good guys… what’s their tell?
Programs we have paid into. With real money. Our real money. 😡 💰
Was there today for the H.R. 9495 vote (bill that would have allowed labeling nonprofits as terrorist supporting organizations). Voted no, of course - but I do want to report that the activism DID work and persuaded members. I thought it’d be a lonely NO vote, which we take often. It wasn’t.

Oh weird. Now it doesn't. 😄
I used to think it made a difference. Hopefully I'll eventually think so again.
Aww man I wish I had thought to do that when I killed my account today 😣 but oh well at least I finally did it
I did it! Bye bye twiXter, hello BlueSky. I don’t completely get it yet, but I will! If you’re not a fascist I’d love a follow 🤗
