Gogo and his reflection—not a thought between them

Killdeer and eggs

Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done He’s using the White House to get rich from anonymous investors—and it’s hardly even a news story.

NYT and Washington Post, put your best reporters on this and place their stories on your front pages. MSNBC, hammer on this—you haven’t been. Democrats, talk about this every day, several times a day. Do not let Trump’s sewer standards jade us.

Neither of my kids could do any of that at his age

Great comp! Love the reflections!

Loved your Odyssey—just finished it a couple of weeks ago! Almost makes me want unretire and teach ninth-graders again

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969.

One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Per @johnleguizamo.bsky.social:

“Medicaid is called by different names in different states! Stay awake America you lose everything you rely on!”

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

It works! So much fun coming up with names!

Please!

Do NOT, I SAY, DO NOT:

Spam this shitty Heritage Foundation Pro DOGE survey that lets you submit as many entries as you'd like without verifying that your email is real

That would be very, very mean

More of this!

👋 Hey Kids!!! Get ready to either laugh uproariously or sob inconsolably, cuz it's time for either the SUNDAY FUNNIES or the TRUTHFUL TRAGEDIES, depending on your own personal point-of-view.

Congressman Al Green on X: "Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid.

I eschew violence, but I can’t disagree with this

Bwahahaha.

Mar-a-Lago was listed as "Kremlin Headquarters" for a little while on Google Maps.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

And also this

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

My FiL turned 90 today (or maybe yesterday but that’s a different story). For lunch we had pizza and for supper, fried chicken. Tomorrow, we’ll have barbecue, collards, and banana pudding.

We are calling for a nationwide and international boycott of all Elon Musk-related products and services. Sell your Tesla shares, avoid buying Tesla vehicles, cancel Starlink, and delete your X accounts.

Same! In fact, it’s our family motto (nimis enim dives est pro butyro supplere) more or less

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

Hi, my name is [NAME], I'm a constituent in [ZIP CODE]. I'm calling because I saw that [TERRIBLE THING] is happening. I think this is appalling. [PERSONAL STORY, if you have one.] I want you to do everything you can to stop this. I will remember your actions when I cast my next vote. Thank you.

Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.

The book is Syria’s Secret Library by Mike Thomson

Riveting, sad, uplifting, depressing, encouraging (and I still have three chapters to go)
