You did it! Thank you for voting. Democrat Catelin Drey has flipped an open Iowa state Senate seat, raise a glass! This victory means Republicans no longer hold a supermajority in Iowa.

If Jeff Bezos was actually a feminist instead of letting Katy Perry buy a ticket to space he'd use his vast financial resources to oppose the president who is stripping abortion rights and bodily autonomy from women across the country

No biggie. This man is temporarily in charge of, and Trump wants to put him permanently in charge of, one of the two United States Attorney’s offices that handle the most national-security matters.

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby The Great Gatsby Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts. "There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. .. It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?" It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe. It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism. CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS The GREAT GATSBY FITZGERALD

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Nonsensical.

What do you get when you mix red coats with yellow bellies? Orangehead. 🤣

This seems really really really bad

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy.

All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

None of this is normal

Just saying.

I know there’s a phrase that perfectly describes what’s going on here but gosh darn it I’m blanking on it

Maybe we can crowdsource this. The best I can come up with is I think it may rhyme with or sound something like “anti-magnetic lyco-bath.”

Can anyone help?

NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffs—Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who'd like to see Town Halls loudly criticizing trump and Musk across America every week. And if Republican members of Congress don't show up, that's fine...

An empty chair will work.
Let's fucking DO THIS.

Keep the pressure on!

This is straight out of project 2025

I'm old enough to remember when trump tried to say people in the Biden Administration were incompetent, but none of them accidentally fired the Ebola team. Or the nuclear weapons folks.

Just sayin'.

We are shutting down our online store at midnight Eastern in solidarity with the 2/28 Economic Blackout. We’ll be back on 3/1. Also, sorry about the long shipping timeframes and the lack of shirts—we’re working hard to catch up! We use small U.S. suppliers for our products.

Embarrassing.
Disrespectful.

And they're attacking Zelenskyy about his choice of clothing while meeting the Oval Office?

I don't remember anyone addressing this same issue
with Musk on his fashion choices in the Oval or at the cabinet meeting.

Cowards!

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

George, I’m sick over convicted felon Trump’s treatment of President Zelenskyy not to mention is sycophant VP Vance’s actions. It’s unconscionable.
