No, laws still apply to you.

I do not fear a person who is so desperate that he crosses a border to have a job that no one else wants or will do.

I do not fear the sexuality of the 1% of people who seek to live a different gender truth.

I do not believe being rich indicates you are smart.

I do not fear learning a different perspective on history. It does not make me part of a β€œwoke mob”. I’m a free thinker. I can accept or reject information presented to me. And so can my children.

This is from the official White House Facebook account. The lack of propriety and decorum is astounding.

For those of you celebrating the firing of federal workers, perhaps you better impress upon the shadow president Musk that he and his β€œgo fast and break things” henchmen ought to think first. Good idea to lay off people in nuclear security and the power grid.

So inflation is up. Prices have not dropped on β€œDay 1”

Meanwhile the smoke and mirrors of β€œmass deportations” hasn’t lowered prices either.

Now it’s federal job cuts. Many MAGA people are okay with lives being upended.

Many MAGA people call themselves β€œChristian”. Where’s the compassion ?

Trump Administration Shocks Senior F.B.I. Ranks by Moving to Replace Them Top officials have been told to retire or be fired in the coming days, fueling fear within an agency that has been a target of President Trump and Kash Patel, his nominee to be F.B.I. director.

A handful of senior FBI employees have been told to resign in a matter of days or be fired, as the Trump administration moves to shake up the agency’s upper ranks, according to people familiar with the discussions.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

I’m not a lawyer and I don’t give out legal advice, but I’d rather throw my legs up over my head and scrape the backs of my thighs with a cheese grater than accept a deferred resignation offer from these unfuckable douchelords.

Is the HPV Vaccine Safe? Yes, Despite What R.F.K. Jr. Has Said. During his second day of confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declined to disavow comments he had made disparaging the vaccine as unsafe.

Yes, the HPV vaccine is safe, despite R.F.K. Jr.'s claims. It's remarkably effective at preventing cancer β€” roughly 97% effective in preventing cervical cancer, and nearly 100% effective in preventing external genital warts.

Right on AOC!
I haven’t always agreed with your policy positions but I’ve always admired your fervor and commitment.
Lead the fight against this autocracy!

White House Budget Office Orders Pause in All Federal Loans and Grants The full extent of the order was not immediately clear, but the directive sent to government agencies on Monday threatened to paralyze a vast swath of federal programs.

The White House budget office has ordered a pause in grants, loans and other federal financial assistance, according to a memo sent to government agencies on Monday, potentially paralyzing a vast swath of programs and jeopardizing spending that Congress has mandated by law.

A photo shows Elon Musk speaking at the Inauguration Day event at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. with his right arm straightened and raised in the air. A headline reads: "In Germany, Little Doubt On the Meaning of Elon Musk's Salute." Photo credit: Eric Lee for The New York Times.

The straight-arm salute has meant very different things in different places and during different periods of history. But in Germany, the interpretation of the gesture Elon Musk made during President Trump’s inauguration event this week was straightforward. nyti.ms/4h6c5iE

From The NY Times and Donald Trump:

β€œβ€¦Mr. Trump said he wanted β€œto take a look at a fire that could have been put out if they let the water flow, but they didn’t let the water flow, and they still haven’t.”

β€œI don’t think we should give California anything until they let water flow down.”

Two people sit at a dining room table. One shows the other the weather app on their phone, and says, β€œIt says it’s nineteen degrees out, but the general lack of empathy in our current climate makes it feel colder.”

Question: For Christian Trump supporters, does a plea for mercy merit an apology?

From Donald Trump:
β€œThe so-called Bishop who spoke at the National Prayer Service on Tuesday morning was a Radical Left hard line Trump hater…She and her church owe the public an apology! β€œ
