And we thought back then it couldn't get any worse than the stupidity of GWB.
The event that defined the presidency of George W Bush, along with the invasion of Iraq predicated on sheer lies.
Judge: I got a call at 2:36 a.m. because the govt chose this time on a holiday weekend to execute this plan. I have been up since then. I haven't been able to reach anyone from govt until this morning at 9:30 a.m. So absent this intervention, all children would already have been sent to Guatemala!
Under pressure from Trump and Xi, Germany faces a turning point in its economic model
I'm looking at RFK Jr. as I walk through the airports today...and I see that he is just overburdened with basic mental challenges- you can tell from his face, jerky movements, and lack of self awareness that he is stupid.
🇺🇸 Join fired USAID staff and HIV activists on Tuesday Sept 2 2027 at 11 AM ET at the White House to defend PEPFAR the US program that has saved 25M lives. Dr Atul Gawande former USAID Global Health Bureau head will speak.
These fuckers took time earlier to specifically say they aren't dumping American children. But if theyre not American? www.dhs.gov/news/2025/04...
BREAKING: A federal judge has *blocked* the Trump administration from abruptly deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children — perhaps within a matter of hours — granting an emergency restraining order after advocates called the plan illegal + dangerous. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
CHILDREN. Dumping little kids with no guardianship into another country without any semblance of due process or care after the fact, on a long weekend no less, is sooo far removed from Pro-Life or Christian to be laughable if it weren't so TRAGIC.
how Mitchell describes the prior system that Trump wants to bring back: "You had Black folks being cycled through in shackles. You had prosecutors, defense attorneys, and judges speaking really quickly. We had people haggling about money. And again, the hearings would last about a minute."

Two psychologists have warned that Trump shows signs of dementia—specifically frontotemporal dementia, linked to deteriorating psychomotor functioning. The blurry photos released today do nothing to dispel the growing speculation that something is seriously wrong with Trump.
Why Isn't Donald Trump's Declining Health Being Covered by Corporate Media? Where are the op-eds & news programs calling for Trump's resignation due to his declining health, impaired abilities, & march towards fascism? Oh, yeah, "both sides" corporate journalism. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.
I've lived through two epidemics (HIV in the US in the 80s/90s and in South Africa in the 2000s) and through COVID with the rest of us. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing has been as terrible as what is happening now. 8/
It's important to know what we're dealing with. Though some in the media still try to horse-race, both sides this, we're faced with psychopaths at the helm of our nation's public health, scientific and healthcare efforts. They want to inflict pain and suffering. It's a goal, not a by-product. 6/
This is just part of RFK Jr.'s body count. And Russ Vought? His destruction of the ranks of CDC (and NIH etc) are making it impossible for remaining staff to do their jobs. This is what he wants. As he said he wants bureaucrats to be traumatized. Does this sound like a normal human being? 5/
Between last fall and today, there have been over 3 million out-patient visits, over 300,000 hospitalizations and over 30,000 deaths from COVID. This data comes from a presentation at the the June ACIP meeting extrapolated forward. Now there will likely be more as RFK Jr. consolidates his power. 4/
Many people may not feel the immediate brunt of what RFK Jr. and Vought have now wrought. But it will be extensive and long-term. 3/
This week, they've brought the US public health system to its knees. The COVID-19 vaccine recommendations, the anti-vax crusade, precipitated yesterday's bloodbath at the CDC. The senior leadership is gone. Even if Monarez hangs on a few more days, the agency is now captured in full. 2/
#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/
The price of eggs? Wait until you see your ACA premiums. Got cancer? The hope for new cures has been dashed. If H5N1 develops mutations that confer easy human-to-human transmission? Fuggedaboudit. 7/
Think this may explain why US warships carrying marines are currently steaming towards Venezuela. bsky.app/profile/mlip...
WOW, must see TV!
If and only if a civil war ever breaks out in this country, the first and most important thing that must be destroyed is the datacenters. They’re not just tools, they’re weapons.
It is widely reported that Kennedy has ordered a clampdown on reporting of COVID and human cases of H5N1 bird flu, and that he plans to entirely ban COVID-19 vaccines in the coming months. He has already cut access to COVID-19 vaccines, restricting it to adults 65+ and in high risk categories.
🚨The US Debt Crisis is getting WORSE: The US budget deficit hit $291 BILLION in July, the 2nd-biggest for any July EVER. After 10 months of Fiscal Year 2025, the budget gap reached MIND-BLOWING $1.63 trillion, the 3rd-largest deficit in history.👇
You...you mean the Russian asset would betray her oath to the US Constitution? I'm shocked. Just shocked.
"In the next Covid-19, mpox, H5N1, etc. - what scientists call "Disease X" - O'Neill's CDC won't even test people to try to track infections, let alone stop them from spreading." Huh. We aren't doing this anymore for Covid, does that outrage you? It should.
Why do Trump and RFK want us to die? Do they think that "culling the herd" will produce a genetically superior population? Are they really that evil and dumb? If they were that evil and dumb, would they do anything different? @charlesgaba.com www.editorialboard.com/unsaid-make-...
Millers ICE Gestapo is arresting green card holders now too! 👿👇🏼
#Pinks #ProudBlue RFK Jr.’s idea to let bird flu run unchecked through chickens isn’t only cruel and inhumane, it could cause a new variant to jump to humans, which is probably what he wants. Stop this murdering psychopath. www.factcheck.org/2025/03/rfk-...

For Black Memphis residents already burdened by pollution, the gas turbines that powered Musk’s supercomputer raised concerns. The Chamber of Commerce downplayed fears by claiming 9 government agencies oversee the facility. That’s not exactly true. By @wendicthomas.bsky.social, w/ @mlk50.com
This is appalling, criminal, and the GOP plan for everywhere: block cheap renewables in favor of expensive gas turbines. It won't even provide enough power, there's a 3-5 year backlog for turbines. We'll all pay far higher electricity bills to be sicker and to do more environmental damage.

One disabled Marine veteran has not had a primary care doctor assigned to him since his previous doctor left in the winter, his wife said. The VA “was never like this before. There’s a lack of staff, empty rooms, locked doors.”
2-3+ times a week I clean bodily fluid *disasters* for my disabled son—the type most parents experience once or twice EVER & then tell the story to embarrass grown kids. I’m sitting here filing the nail I broke scrubbing w/nostrils burning from Lysol thinking about she wanted to help caregivers.

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.
They're releasing the Epstein files?

I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.

Japan just launched a power plant to convert salt water to energy. China is building the world’s largest solar farm. Finland just launched a sand battery for heating. Nigeria is accessing geothermal energy. Trump / GOP have their fingers in their ears and are yelling Drill Baby Drill.
They say that people die the way they lived. So it’s fitting that Donald Trump is squeezing in one last fundraising grift before slipping this mortal coil.

If Republicans really think there is a national emergency to justify the tariffs, why don’t they just pass them in Congress like they are supposed to under the constitution. This is supposedly a national emergency, but they are gambling on the Supreme Court while doing nothing?

Once again, Border Patrol tells the press this was a targeted kidnapping, yet they took a man who is legally here & in the immigration process. This shows that it was not a targeted investigation as they claimed. Press must stop printing lies. apnews.com/article/immi...
What the fuck. Article ends noting that there are now 46 fewer personnel fighting this fire than there were on Thursday. Washington state needs to look at every piece of data we share with any federal agency and not share it if it could potentially be used by immigration
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
🔥🔥🔥In a matter of seconds TEN ICE agents grab a man after his court hearing. There is no warrant. There is no reason. There is no due process. Their names are on a list when they arrive at Jacob J Javits immigration court. Disappeared. Leaving only pain.
The year is 2024, President Joe Biden has not interacted members of the press in several days, his visibly bloated figure can only be occasionally glanced through telephoto lenses as he shuffles secretively in and out of the White House. The Beltway press is unbothered by the situation.
