How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?
🍿 MTG still making sense. This past year really has felt like we’re living in the upside down.
That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
And the MyPillow guy can’t help them out?
From the definition I heard, they are psychopaths not sociopaths, for not simply do they lack empathy, but they gain pleasure from being cruel to others.
What really shocked me is that apparently about 1% of the population are psychopaths.

“Starting on Day One, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods.”
—Donald Trump, August 2024
Education is the enemy of fascism.
I know Biden’s tall, but is he more than 30,000 feet tall?
Not to mention the very real possibility of puncturing the inflatable slide and making it unusable for the passengers still on board. 🥵

David Simon had a succinct 2-word response: “Bone spurs.”
DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."
Reminder: Amazon Blackout—starting tomorrow.
Amazon ❌, Whole Foods ❌ off the to-do list!
I see tomorrow is Friday.
Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?
Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?
I just can’t keep track.
Al Green after he was THROWN out of chambers:
“I was making it clear to the President that he has no mandate to cut Medicaid”

But they are in control of everything
That's all the problems
