AND!!

South Carolina has Annie Andrews running against Lady Bug Graham and Alabama has Kyle Sweetser challenging a SOUP of the dumbest Nazis east of the Mississippi. Neither are the only Dems running in their primaries, but both have arguably the most potential. Don't forget the South!!!

It’s been 27 days since ICE sent Andry (the make-up artist with β€œmom” & β€œdad” tattoos that ICE claimed were TdA tattoos) to be imprisoned in El Salvador.

Thank you @repyassansari.bsky.social, @maxwellfrost.bsky.social, @robertgarcia.bsky.social, and @repdexteror.bsky.social for not forgetting him.

Just found out that Barack Obama is an Ethel Cain fan and now I'm sad all over again.

We really had no idea how good we had it having someone kind and cool and smart and hopeful as president when we were wee 18 year old babies.

Inside the β€œchurn” that traps people with serious mental illness People who experience psychosis often cycle through homelessness, emergency rooms, and jail. What happened to America’s mental health system?

Behind every person you see in psychosis on the streets, there is a story of institutional failureβ€”a story that goes back at least half a century.

We partner with @npr.org 's podcast, Lost Patients, to find out why American psychiatric care breaks down.

WBIR: β€œDepartment of Ag cut $1 billion in spending by cutting two programs that provided funds for schools and childcare facilities to buy food from local farmers…”

Not easy to hurt farmers and kids at the same time, but Trump found a way.

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

Tariff trouble? Nebraska companies, farmers trapped in middle of brewing trade war The recent Trump administration tariffs imposed on that country means that the animal feed company will now pay more for a feed additive for pigs and chickens, a product that can lead to healthier ani...

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts.

And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think

I think that theory might be wrong though. I think it may be a comfort issue. But, like, if you can do a town hall with 20 people, you can do an instagram live with 200. If you can do a stump speech, you can do a video essay. The skills aren’t that different, but they do need to be developed.

DOGE wants to cut $1 trillion this year. But it's not looking at big spending drivers Even if you take DOGE's savings claims so far at face value, its moves to cancel contracts, end leases and push federal agencies to reduce head count barely dent the government's balance sheet.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

The Trump Administration Keeps Citing an Untrue Stat as It Targets Federal Workers A β€œsurvey of our niche audience for our niche audience” was the source for the claim that only 6% of federal employees are working full time in their offices. The number isn’t true. Why do…

The Trump administration keeps reciting the statistic that only 6% of federal employees are working full time in their offices.

That’s astoundingly low β€” and completely untrue.

Here’s how an online survey was taken out of context to perpetuate a myth:

JD is no diplomat. He is no leader.

But he DOES know his way around a couch, so maybe he should give up politics and get a job at a furniture store.

He could be a product tester! Isn't everyone dying to know which couches are the most fuckable?!

WASHINGTON (AP) β€” More than 20 civil service employees resigned Tuesday from billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, saying they were refusing to use their technical expertise to β€œdismantle critical public services.”

β€œWe swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the Constitution across presidential administrations,” the 21 staffers wrote in a joint resignation letter, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press. β€œHowever, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”

The employees also warned that many of those enlisted by Musk to help him slash the size of the federal government under President Donald Trump’s administration were political ideologues who did not have the necessary skills or experience for the task ahead of them.

The mass resignation of engineers, data scientists and product managers is a temporary setback for Musk and the Republican president’s tech-driven purge of the federal workforce. It comes amid a flurry of court challenges that have sought to stall, stop or unwind their efforts to fire or coerce thousands of government workers out of jobs.

DOGE has no interest in auditing the government. It's a bulldozer, meant to wipe out existing infrastructure in order to let the Tech Autocrats put in place their warped Tech Empires.
