Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

One of my favorite bits of argument in the Bell Curve is that it uses apartheid South Africa as a control for the idea that a history of slavery and racial discrimination might explain IQ testing disparities in the USA, because South Africa didn't have slavery.

Wow. Click through to this document…

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.

I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person

I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

Schiff: Why is this firing of FBI agents such an important piece of this whole effort by Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and their enablers? Because .. if they're going to raid the treasury... They don't want an FBI that's going to examine anything they're doing.

1/ For the people who are asking: “Where are the protests?!” There have been many! Much of them organized by immigrants rights groups and leftists. Here’s a thread of some I have found, or know people who have attended. Feel free to add your own.

Just a reminder that there had been a peaceful transfer of power in the United States starting in 1801 up until 2021. Donald Trump was the first to not just eschew this practice but be incited an insurrection. He knew he lost, but lied to his armed followers. 1/

And today he’s being let back into the White House. He stole official government documents, he incited a domestic terrorist attack on the USA, he tried to overturn a free & fair election, his goons ruined election workers lives over his lies & he’s already showing he plans to institute 2/

Project 2025: a plan to destroy our government from within and destroy our democratic system. And today we are just letting him back in like none of that happened. It’s truly stunning to watch it crumble in real time. We must not give up but damn this is terrifying 3/

Just. Horrifying.

A roughly circular cloud of gas and dust with complex structure. The inner shell is made of bright pink and orange filaments studded with clumps and knots that look like tiny pieces of shattered glass. Around the exterior of the inner shell, there are curtains of wispy gas that look like campfire smoke. Around and within the nebula, various stars are seen as points of blue and white light. Outside the nebula, there are also clumps of dust, coloured yellow in the image.
