It's possible ... hear me out, here โฆ. It may well be that these people lie their asses off whenever they exhale
Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.
For all the dog lovers. This is a classic. Worth seeing again.

They want us fighting so we never notice who is stealing from us all. Donโt get lost in the circus.
A rainbow crosswalk in Orlando that was part of the cityโs Pulse Memorial was painted over by the state last night at the order of Ron DeSantis. The memorial honored the 49 people fatally shot by a gunman at the Pulse LGBTQ nightclub in 2016 โ the largest mass shooting in the country at the time.

Ground control to Major Tom.
Approx. 120,000 Ukrainians who arrived in the USA under the "Uniting for Ukraine" program are starting to lose their temporary status as of August 15, 2025. This loss of status could lead to their arrests and deportations belib.org/EGjjxB8
Operation โGet him to stroke outโ is in full swing.
A top official in the Justice Department unit assigned to combat domestic terrorism has resigned in frustration after watching his office effectively gutted with much of its funding cut off and its lawyers reassigned to immigration enforcement and other matters.
Well, that sucks. I hope they fix it soon - ha! - and I'm glad you had a second way to get it. I didn't say anything else on this one anyway, short on time.
Why does this entire administration struggle with the concept of linear time?
Release the Epstein files.
Yes, I reblogged it as normal a few minutes ago thought it was running slow on searches.

The EPA is preparing to cancel $7 billion in grants intended to fund rooftop solar projects for low- and middle-income households. Officials plan to send notices to all 60 recipients in the Solar for All program, spanning 49 states, informing them that their funding has been revoked.
26, better than I thought I might do.

I hope Stephen Colbert goes absolutely scorched earth the remaining months of his show.
This article by Franklin Foer filled in a lot of gaps for me. The goal is the destruction of the professional managerial classโthe people who conduct scientific research, run libraries and museums, predict the weather, and monitor food safety. It is the Chinese Cultural Revolution for America.

The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because itโs angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

on the last day of the United States, when this country has finally descended into civil war, i will do a thread on how to dress for summer
More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

An addled president is shredding the Constitution to usher in white nationalism and fascism while destroying the economy and our health care, so if youโre going to write an alarmist op-ed because a mayoral candidate might open five (5) city-run grocery stores, you can kindly get bent.

Obviously fake moon. You can see the wires!
I miss having a human president.
Holding out at level 72 and feeling strong!
Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.
Put your money where your mouth is. . .
Should be talking about it while marching in the streets. Everyday. Shut the country down
BREAKING: Emil Bove - whose judicial confirmation hearing is tomorrow - told lawyers to tell the courts to โfuck offโ if they ordered the planes to El Salvador to turn around - per whistleblower Erez Reuveni. Gift article: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/u...
Vacations might be expensive. But you can't put a price tag on arguing with your family in a different place.
I'm guessing some will dutifully report up the chain and their findings will be buried or ignored.
Should have mentioned, when snapping yesterday's sunrise, I was not alone; I had a friend ๐ท #AlphabetChallenge #WeekZforZoology #Nature #Squirrels #Wildlife #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #PhotographersOfBluesky #EastCoastKin #TheWildImages
They should be required to serve in them.
I want one , and a bat!
Be the light you want to see in the world.
I feel another stern letter from Schumer coming on. They will tremble.
A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and itโs already out of the news.
Personally I am unfamiliar with any legitimate activity that requires switching license plates, which by the way is illegal.
No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.
Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasnโt them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? Theyโve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.
๐จ๐จThe White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck thatโผ๏ธ
I don't know about you...but I'm disturbed by the amount of hell NOT being raised by leadership about masked individuals jumping out of unmarked vans, refusing to identify themselves...and just shoving people into a Goddamn vehicle and whisking them away.
They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."
Please spread in light of the continued MAGA disinformation efforts regarding this right-wing, Trump-supporting assassin.
We wonโt amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are โsick of mindโ and โhate our countryโ immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.
I refuse to be bound by the social construct called "the calendar". Merry Christmas everyone.
i donโt want to keep calm and carry on i want to shoot lasers out of my eyes

Shameful.
Holy shit, New York! Hereโs the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement
It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.
One of my favorite signs of the day.
Philly showin' up today
We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again
โA deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if youโre an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who wonโt identify themselves telling you to get in a vanโ, what a fuckin country
Obama is the best of โem!
Out of an abundance of caution my Department of Public Safety is recommending that people do not attend any political rallies today in Minnesota until the suspect is apprehended.
There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

Itโs real! Iโve just searched it and found it. Itโs listed under โgigsโ.
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
