Remember the 18 minute gap in the Nixon tapes?

That's what drugs are for! 😁

N.I.H. Worker Who Criticized Trump Health Policies Says She Is on Administrative Leave

NIH scientist Dr. Jenna Norton was just placed on nondisciplinary leave.

She led a team who wrote a sign-on letter critical of The Regime.

A person at NIH asked to give a reason for her leave called her “radical leftist”; while the NIH Director has claimed that “dissent is productive”.

I wonder how much he paid for the pardon.

There is a thought experiment game called the finger game. Two people put a finger in each other's mouth and bite down. If you cry out in pain they can remove their finger from your mouth but can keep on biting. The Democrats just cried out in pain.

I think Senate folders are significantly underestimating how fucking angry Democratic voters are at them

After This Shutdown Surrender, Chuck Schumer Needs to Go The Democratic leader’s cave-in makes it all too clear: It’s time to clean house in the Senate.

After his pathetic surrender to Republicans on the government shutdown, it's time for Chuck Schumer to go, writes @jeetheer.bsky.social.

You have been unable to lead the Democratic caucus. You can either admit that the Democrats will never again be believed, or you can have a vote to dismiss the eight traitors from the Democratic caucus.

Of course, to do that, the remaining Democrats would have to have a spine. I am sure that is too much to ask.

A two thirds vote is sufficient to kick people out of the Democratic caucus. Those eight should be kicked out now. They are traitors.

It just took a handful of spineless Democrats.

I realize that you might want to end the filibuster when you are in the majority. But maybe it would be short sighted to do so. Donald Trump is trying to end the filibuster. Kind of embarrassing for Jordan Wood.

Researchers used type Ia supernovae, similar to SN1994d pictured in its host galaxy NGC4526, to help establish that the universe’s expansion may actually have started to slow.

Could the universe's expansion actually be slowing? 🌌

That's the suggestion from researchers at Yonsei University in South Korea, whose new study has been published today in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

I have never seen an American President so desperate to force children and seniors to go hungry.

Donald Trump is appealing a federal court's order requiring him to pay the full SNAP benefits for this month.

This is as ugly and cruel as it gets.

Is there confirmation that he wasn't shot by the police?

I hear that Noble Roman's Pizza is going to award Trump the Nobel Pizza prize.

NYC Jews went Cuomo 2 to 1. Last year, Jewish voters nationally went Harris 2 to 1. This is really upsetting to me. A real fracture. Feels like a betrayal. www.cnn.com/election/202...

Melania should be saying "Let them eat cake!" about now.

What a long review. And simply wrong. A great movie.

Trump DOJ Indicts Congressional Candidate for Protesting ICE She and five other protesters face up to eight years in prison if convicted.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Kramnik might fare better if he showed some humility now, both in the court of public opinion and in actual courts. Filing lawsuits against his critics is likely to backfire. IMO.

Why the fuck are Democrats confirming this despot's judges. Why are Democrats giving a single fucking inch on anything, while he is waging war on our country?

Be. A. Fucking. Opposition. Party.

“We’re not a king. We’re not a king at all.” So said President Trump today, using the royal “we.”

For the umpteenth time: Trump is not on the side of the free world. Trump works for Putin.
