This is a valid response, if you think back, the issues with flying & airport safety & the FAA didnโ€™t start till the Trump administration took over, and they immediately started making cuts to the agencyโ€™s workforce, follows the same strategy of creating an emergency so they can pretend to solve it!

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoes anti-trans bills, and tells lawmakers to 'focus on real issues that matter' Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoed a birth certificate update ban as well as two DEI bans that explicitly included transgender people.

Great example of why we all need to get more friendlyโ€™s elected, and oust Republicansโ€ฆ

Trump begins firings of FAA staff just weeks after fatal DC plane crash The Trump administration has begun firing several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees, upending staff on a busy air travel weekend and just weeks after a fatal midair collision near Wash...

Remember this headline? โ€˜Trump begins firings of FAA staff just weeks after fatal DC plane crashโ€™โ€ฆ
Impacted workers included personnel hired for FAA radar, landing & navigational aid maintenance.
The Trump administration is responsible for the current debacle!

Several weeks ago, four of five STEM programs that make up the NIH-funded Deaf Scientists Pipeline in Rochester, NY were cut (the fifth is expected to be cut too). A PhD student made the below infographic to visualize what these cuts mean as a catastrophic generational loss for #Deaf science

And he's still going! Thank you, Senator Booker! โœŠ๐Ÿผ

Somebody in Congress is finally taking a stand on the Senate floor!

Another congressperson should be ready to relieve him when he gets too tired to continue and keep filibustering these assholes. Is that a thing? Can we make it a thing?

USDA cancels $1B in local food purchasing for schools, food banks States have been notified that they will not receive 2025 funding for schools to buy food from nearby farms.

A USDA spokesperson confirmed the program, feeding children, โ€œno longer effectuate the goals of the agency.โ€ As a retired teacher, I know children across the country will suffer because of this. I also know, the children in red states will suffer the most.

Comment from OP:
Could it be the 2 most powerful men in the administration are both draft avoiders? Trump had "bone spurs" & Musk migrated to Canada to avoid the draft in South Africa that existed at the time. Interestingly the draft in S Africa only applied to white men.

Many veterans fell for it.

Political cartoon. Rep Al Green, D-Texas standing up and pointing his cane yelling "HE DOES NOT HAVE A MANDATE TO CUT MEDICAID!"

In the lower corner are two people hiding behind round signs. One reads "Civility!" and the other says "Did he not get the sign memo?"

There was only one person acting presidential in the Oval Office today: Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

He stood up to bullies in a Kremlin-style shakedown.

What will it take to awaken the conscience of the country after such a shameful display?
