Yay, thanks! I've been looking for it since you mentioned it on the pod.

There's a Bernstein song for everything open.spotify.com/track/4ImlM0...

Of course he did post a video of him dumping shit on everyone, so this tracks. I'm so disgusted.

None of us would be in this pickle if that father of his had ever said "I love you" even once.

The Hand That Rocks The Gavel - This American Life A group of immigration judges, who almost never speak to the press, describes the dismantling of our immigration court system from the inside.

There was a great @thisamericanlife.org episode about this. www.thisamericanlife.org/868/the-hand...

The "don't be an asshole" rule is double in effect now.

The Trump administration is blatantly violating the Hatch Act in order to deflect blame for their shutdown—-it’s part of a much bigger pattern.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Hold strong

"I don't know anything, I never did know anything"

The one as big as me?

To any tourism agencies out there, as an American who might be unwillingly kept from getting updated COVID vaccines, I 100% will visit your country and spend my tourist $ there for vaccines. Start a new "vaccine tourism" campaign.

If only we collectively could stop electing people that are well past retirement age.

One might even call it gender affirming.

This is why Charlottesville melted down its Lee statue. If the statue is removed and simply put in storage, it remains what @artcrimeprof.bsky.social calls “America’s strategic racism reserve.”

I've heard about this meeting from all sorts of sources, so they aren't very good at the "secret" part.

She seems water logged

There should be zero reason for not allowing public scrutiny of these kinds of comms. I thought Texas was all about populism and small government? This kind of thing is exactly what foments distrust in government institutions.

That clears that right up.

Headline of New York Times story from May 2nd. It reads: Former Weather Service Leaders Warn Staffing Cuts Could Lead to 'Loss of Life' The former agency directors say current employees will face an "impossible task" to maintain service just as hurricane season begins.

By Camille Baker May 2, 2025 Five former National Weather Service directors have taken the unusual step of signing onto an open letter warning that cuts to the organization by the Trump administration may soon endanger lives. "N.W.S. staff will have an impossible task to continue its current level of services," they write in the letter, dated Friday. "Our worst nightmare is that weather forecast offices will be so understaffed that there will be needless loss of life." Hundreds of Weather Service employees, or about 10 percent of the agency's total staff, have been terminated or accepted buyout offers since President Trump began his second term, according to the letter.

🚨2 months ago, every National Weather Service Director of the last 34 years took the unprecedented step of signing a joint, open letter.

“Our worst nightmare is that weather forecast offices will be so understaffed that there will be needless loss of life.”

The Houston office is 44% UNDERSTAFFED.

Say it!

Republicans want you to die.

a man in a top hat says that he hates people ALT: a man in a top hat says that he hates people

The Republican strategy seems to be to "decrease the surplus population" either by defunding healthcare or by imprisoning anyone they see fit. Clearly they all need a visit from three spirits.

UPDATE: Senate Republicans made Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill even worse.

Now, this bill rips health care coverage away from 17 MILLION people—that’s an additional 1 MILLION people.

Health care cuts now total over $1 TRILLION.

Tuberville says ‘inner city rats’ live off the American taxpayers: Trump should send them ‘back home’ "These inner city rats, they live on the federal government," Tuberville said in the interview.

Listen, @housedemocrats.bsky.social
@senatedemocrats.bsky.social address this flagrant, insulting & incendiary racism. Where is the censure motion?

Stop jumping at every smear against Mamdani.
Focus on what a U.S. Senator is saying abt a key part of your base.

I know that @murray.senate.gov and @cantwell.senate.gov are going to do the right thing and vote against this bill. If you're not lucky like me to live in WA, please call your senators and ask them to do the same.

I have called and asked her to issue a statement why.

Nevermind, I see it was a vote to table

This says she voted yea, although Jayapal voted nay www.govtrack.us/congress/vot...
