New kitten day! Rangoon(L) and Kokkare(R).

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns

los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

You do not gotta hand it to him. I’m a paramedic in Colorado. This bill had support from everyone involved except insurance companies. It solved significant ambulance funding issues and it passed both houses unanimously!

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

Right? I had a total thyroidectomy due to cancer. I take 2 thyroid meds daily because that thing ain’t growing back.

Bonanza, then the Wendy’s Superbar

Hi

Or we all have brain worms, at least

Mediocre sounds like it’s aiming too high

Came within a day of running out of my thyroid medication waiting on an insurance approval. I had thyroid cancer and don’t have my thyroid anymore.

Get me Übermensch Chalmers!

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

JD Vance is actually a tragic Gretchen Wieners tale. The child who takes credit for their self-made father’s successes, desperate for the attention of a cunty queen bee, being socially usurped by a bitch from Africa

As a former Federal employee, I thought President Elon and Vice President Trump might need my bullet point accomplishments:

* Dodge
* Duck
* Dip
* Dive
* Dodge

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are even worse people than Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping—they've chosen to be their lapdogs and betray their country

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Tweeted September 23rd, 2020: I don't know how to say this gently: you should know, if you don't already, that infectious disease follows state failure every time. All those public health programs, whirring away over decades, mostly unseen, in the background of our lives --you will feel their absence.

Tapping the sign wearily

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.

How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65

Note: In 2024 alone, Musk’s enterprises were awarded approximately $3 billion across nearly 100 federal contracts, averaging about $8 million per day.

“Elon Musk is firing military veteran firefighters for no reason” is the biggest slam dunk in political messaging history, Dems should be shouting it into the world’s biggest bullhorn from the top of the Washington Monument.

Too bad there’s no recent examples of this happening.
