He is the most dangerous crackpot in America, but you don't have to take my word for it. Here are NINE former directors of the CDC saying the same thing.
We all been hoodoo-ed & hornswaggled. Reposts are not absolute indicators of agreement. Sometimes one can learn something from the disagreeable.

The Orange Ogre is bringing someone together, after all.
Your grandpa was on here? 😳😵💫
NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES DAY 1 SEPTEMBER 2025 LABOR DAY THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES To those of you who worked today, I thank you To those of you who MARCHED today, I thank you WE MUST FIGHT To those of you who resisted today, I thank you This is for you To bring a smile and one nut
Relatives of an unarmed man who died as he was being detained by police last year say they recently viewed body-camera footage of the incident that showed Alabama officers kneeling on the man’s neck while he repeated “I can’t breathe.”
📌Today alone, Republicans confirmed a complete slime ball and crook, Emil Bove, to a lifetime appointment on the court, opened the door to corporate pollution of our air and water, and worked tirelessly to shield pedophiles. We are being governed by completely hideous people.
Gestapo. Stupid, at that. What is gained in arresting firefighters? Up next, surgeons during surgery?
In normal times, this is the job of the National Park Service DOGE fired the NPS employees that took care of DC. Trump Must Be Impeached
Not concerned that fixing up D.C. is about trimming hedges & keeping them busy. How much does it cost to bring in the guard to perform tasks often performed by migrants? Does it cost them or their employers?
Painting rocks. The Beetle Bailey army is back!
After having canned everyone with experience and morals they want a new crop of inexperienced and/or less than ethical rubes in the job who will do what they're told vice impartially following the law. abcnews.go.com/US/replenish...
Also, repeating one of my early viral posts on this site: Parents do not have rights. Parents have responsibilities. CHILDREN have rights.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
But I see it was Montreal. Not the US. They grow them all over.
A minimum certainly might be worth consideration, but that’s rarely worked well overall. A criminal psych ward. Which would be useful to people like Trump, when he’s gone & the rest of the NeoNazis run the place.
Prescient weren’t you. Trump is a blowhard who makes shit up & everybody is supposed to pretend its real to keep him fat & happy. We are we trying to survive an addled man’s delusion?
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."
Walker Library in Newcastle my favourite. Used to have its own building then moved to a small part of a leisure centre. Apparently will be expanded soon. 🧪
Y’know. At 80, people pissed themselves over Biden. Perhaps its time to recognize Trumpy never had much on the ball, given his business failures when he couldn’t manipulate markets. Now we’re paying even more. He’s lost brainpower since then.

When I met this man - of whom I think so much - in the lilac room at SuperCuts, who could have guessed that we’d still be together to celebrate number 80? YOU CALL THIS A BIRTHDAY POST FOR STEVE MARTIN?????
👏 “After one year of the zone, nitrogen dioxide from traffic was lower, GP visits for respiratory illnesses were down by 25% and those for heart problems decreased by 24%”
Always look at the data yourself. But also know the limits of your ability to interpret it. 🧪 Experts are experts because they spend their lives learning everything about one tiny thing. They can put that thing into context. They know the literature about it. They can debate its nuances. 1/3
Exactly seven days until the beginning of the Lunar Eclipse. In theory the UK should start to see something a couple of hours later. I'm being really optimistic. 🔭 🧪
Vance is just another whiney moron.
If the NFL is rigged, The Yale Hillbilly Boy Vance need look no farther than the career consequences to Colin Kaeperick for KNEELING. He means the NFL isn’t kissing the Orange Toadstool’s ass enough.
Good choice of music. Wasn’t that song about guardsmen shooting / murdering Kent State students who were non-violently protesting Vietnam? Are there current examples of such music?
Take it from someone who fled fascism.
Answering the fool’s question: Yes. Suggesting the strong likelihood Trumpy has dementia will grow Newsom’s base. It is obvious Trump’s already meager faculties are riding a fireman’s pole to the nursing home. Or do they believe he’s faking it to dodge his Epstein involvement?
The guy with the funny hat jammed onto his head & Trump hanky needs medical intervention. Although blowing his nose into it is recommended.
Seems like good idea.
Headline is “Trump dispels rumor of ill health by hitting the links.” 80 yr old Trump hitting the links Sunday does not prove him healthy. He rides around on a CART, for chis’sake! Like your groceries! It only suggests he’s not bedridden yet. Today.
Human motivations remain. That’s what we need to address. What does not move us forward, is often just a waste of time. Fun, maybe. But it doesn’t improve the society we live in.
In example: The generation of the 60’s were idealistic, but mostly self-indulgent who became “Reagan Democrats” at the drop of a hat for the promise of a no fault “Me” generation. Basically the ‘guys’ who joined the left to date liberal chicks. People aren’t what they pretend.
Your conclusion is the same as mine in the convincing. We are in the same place as far as technique. Fringie Far left is made up of spoiled children who think they can change things by dragging their feet. Too often the type who vote for token or duplicitous candidates like Jill Stein or Nader.
Its awkward to go back to verify what was said to whom days ago once one starts rolling in conversations in this format.
Yes. Its herding cats as everybody believes they are their own “thing.” Unstructured & autonomous. Social movements to be successful need to be structured, like it or not. The 60’s movements are an object lesson. I never said “they are all the same.” Unstructured ppl THINK they are doing something.
You have to wonder how good Dershowitz’s classes were, if he cannot make his case. Maybe he was just an ambulance chaser.
If disaster does NOT strike — people will discount the preventative efforts that saved their asses.
Its a dress up game. For children playing “pretend.” Trump will soon become useless to the NeoNazis controlling him.
Chaos can be controlled as a group, a mob. Herding sheep. Essentially that is what MAGA is: MAGA are the suckers who dress up & rant on without a grasp of what they’re talking about. Pawns. The people who have been utilizing them are not “MAGA.” That’s only the storefront. The banner.
Right. I’m not looking for extended discussion about fringies.
Excellent NM. Only problem is power of the purse longterm: preventing disaster is under-appreciated.
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.
‘Trump only knows.’ And the people who use him as though all agenda are the same.
What in the ever loving fuck is going on here
He may be alive, but he’s definitely not well.
Ghislaine Maxwell hinted at Epstein’s ties to Trump officials – why wasn’t she pressed for names?
The Secretary of HHS does not accept that germs cause illness. The logical conclusion of that is the worst pseudoscience of all: eugenics. He believes that it is not germs that cause illness, but personal failure (or if you're Chinese or Jewish he thinks bioweapons were designed to avoid you).
Anarchist Goose, “Anarchists” kick over other children’s sand castles on the beach. They don’t build things, nor rebuild them. It is the land of pouty children. End of story.
Notice now there are British “Anarchists.” That that alone seems a waste of time. Anarchists dismantle things, break them — not build them, nor rebuild them. And they may not even be adults.
Hi Goose. A few too many “they”’s in there to have a clear conception of what you are saying. I think I know, but that requires interpreting what you said. “‘They’ coming back stronger.” ?? “They” do not care about a cozy country or world. Nor consequences. Depending who “they” are.
Does the Constitution command an army?
There are not just OPPONENTS controlling “innocent fringe groups.“ There is no dichotomy of absolute good & evil. Do you think the people who amass power CARE what “fringe groups” think or do? The fringe groups are often clueless dreamers. We do not march to Utopia.
This is truly one of the best illustrations of what is happening in America.
But there is an irrational fringe. Who seem to think losing is winning.
I didn’t claim it was ORGANIZED. Are you perhaps not understanding what I said? Poor organization skills may be the problem: its whatever a ragtag handful decide & stamp their foot about. The type who voted for Jill Stein thinking they are somehow purists. It’s how the word “woke” fell apart.
Except the fringe left can be a little irrationally nutty too. That can be off-putting to people in the “middle left” as I guess its called. By the time some got through with the word “woke” — just about anything was “woke” that they didn’t like & once again plays into owning definitions by RW.
“Sycophants” is a little easy. The word with a crusty edge is “TOADIES.”
Definitely there. The checklist for wannabe dictators & authoritarian societies.
Yeah, that’ll be riveting I’m sure. Can’t believe them about simple things, who is believing them about this?
Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey is now on my radar for the Next Generation of Democratic Leaders. Along with Jasmine Crockett. www.cnn.com/2025/08/27/u...
For those asking, this is an ammosexual.
Pumpkin Spice Latte is already a crime against humanity.
Besides, what is Rittenhouse doing trolling on here anyway?
This is kind of an expensive way to generate nonsense soundbites for the Orange Ogre. Pull guardsmen from states to pick up litter.
Spacex rocket survives. “See! They don’t ALL blow up!”

Its the brain worm talking.
This man has the most childishly rudimentary & usually wrong grasp of just about EVERYTHING. Next time, if there is a next time — people should not vote for the village idiot.
His self-imposed deadline is nigh. Everybody waiting in bated breath to hear Kennedy Jr make up some shit about autism?
🧪 The rise in autism prevalence is largely an "epidemic of diagnoses," not of the condition itself. Researchers attribute the increase to broader diagnostic criteria and greater awareness, noting genetics is the primary driver, not a single toxin.
What is this? An open star cluster? A galaxy? This is Andromeda III, a dwarf galaxy that orbits the far more massive Andromeda galaxy, our closest neighboring galaxy, in a Hubble image. Dwarf galaxies can go on to merge into the larger galaxies they orbit. Credit: NASA, ESA. 🔭 🧪
It’s exciting to see these ideas gaining more traction. Or, rather, *regaining* traction — public-facing writing didn’t always carry the stigma that it now does, and we lost something important along the way when it started to 🧪

The government claims broad authority to search our devices at airports and other border crossings, and the Trump administration has even reportedly used that power to search for posts critical of the president. This has an unacceptable chilling effect on anyone traveling to or from the U.S.
Wouldn’t want another George Floyd … …on camera.
NEW: We sent a letter to Texas school districts warning them not to implement a new law that requires all public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom. This week, a federal court deemed the law “plainly unconstitutional.” Public schools are not Sunday schools.
The First Amendment protects our right to record law enforcement activity. Mario Guevara must be freed from ICE detention as soon as possible.
Days after reuniting with his family, the Trump administration has once again detained Kilmar Ábrego García and now plans to deport him to Uganda — a country he has zero connection to — as retaliation for not accepting the government's plea deal. This vindictive cruelty must end.
Immigrant families who were separated during the first Trump administration are again being targeted, despite a court order protecting them from deportation. Families belong together, period.
The 19th Amendment was ratified on this day in 1920, barring voting discrimination based on sex. But for women of color, the right to vote wasn’t fully realized until the Voting Rights Act of 1965. 105 years later, we're still fighting for equal ballot access for all.
We're in court today fighting for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, a journalist who was arrested by police for covering a protest and then detained by ICE. The First Amendment is clear: The government can’t punish journalists for keeping the public informed.
President Trump’s administration plans to make early-term tax cuts permanent and reduce government spending. This could increase the national debt by $4 trillion, raising questions about fiscal responsibility.
He LIKES to hear his name on TV. He WANTS to hear his name. You MUST say his name! Say his goddamn name, or face his wrath!!!
I joined Nicolle Wallace to discuss how Trump’s use of military in D.C. and other blue cities could affect the outcome of the 2026 elections, as well as the FBI’s investigation into John Bolton as a tool of weaponization. www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9yj...

I guess this makes it ok to say “they are policing the area.” Rather see them doing this. But you have to wonder how its going back home paying the bills while they are away from their jobs to clean up the lawns.
So very “Nazi-adjacent.”
