Never before in U.S. history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next.

This is dictatorship.

Damn, I love this!

I found the most thing.

A psychedelic educational video from 1974 that helps kids learn how to use a telephone.

When you lie about your credentials, your drinking, and your leaking of classified war plans, why would anyone trust you about the air strikes?

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets?

I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

An addled president is shredding the Constitution to usher in white nationalism and fascism while destroying the economy and our health care, so if you’re going to write an alarmist op-ed because a mayoral candidate might open five (5) city-run grocery stores, you can kindly get bent.

US trade deficit surges despite Donald Trump's tariffs President Donald Trump's tariff plan has not delivered his desired result as exports declined while imports did not change significantly.

🚨🚨 US TRADE DEFICIT SURGES

The Commerce Department's Census Bureau on Thursday reported that the international trade in goods increased by about 11 percent in May as exports decreased while imports remained relatively unchanged — a sign that Trump's tariff strategy has been a colossal failure.

Birds of a feather always flock together

So anger and surprise are actually two different emotions! Hope this helps!

Disabled people aren’t getting a free ride

Being chronically ill is not a vacation

It’s an unrelenting 24/7 fight to get your basic needs met. You’re forced into legislated poverty & expected to grovel for what little help the system will give

There’s nothing easy about it & we need more support

Experts saw Samoa's plunging vaccination rates as a crisis. RFK Jr. saw an opportunity. New details show how Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then chair of an anti-vaccine group and now Trump’s pick for health secretary, sought to exploit a deadly vaccine accident.

This isn’t the first time RFK Jr has been at the forefront of preventable deaths.

In Samoa, 2 children died after a nurse incorrectly added muscle relaxant to measles vaccine.

RFK Jr swooped in & preyed on the fear of parents in the region. Vaccine rates plummeted, and more than 80 children died

"Only very badly injured kids should die from being hit by cars" is not an argument for letting more kids get hit by cars.

The “covid is only a threat to the vulnerable” narrative primed the pump for the eugenics movement we’re seeing now.

It conditioned people to see the disabled & vulnerable as acceptable losses. People who were probably going to “die anyways”.

It paved the way for fascism.

No one plans to become chronically ill. It’s not something people expect will happen, in fact most folks believe they will be the exception should disability ever befall them.

They will “try harder” and overcome. They will find help where the rest of us have failed.

It doesn’t work like that.

If we can safely prevent death & disability through a vaccine like the MMR, and we CHOOSE not to, what does that say about us?

We vaccinate to protect the most vulnerable.

Kids can’t make the choice for themselves, they’re relying on the adults to protect them.

Get your vaccines. They save lives

There is zero reason why anyone should die of measles ... because there's an effective and safe vaccine and has been for decades.

“All of these precautions have kept me safe. In contrast, almost all my colleagues have had COVID at least once—some multiple times. Some even have Long COVID.”

Mitigations work! Repeat infections are not inevitable.

Grateful to the HCWs still masking & protecting themselves and their patients

“Surely you can just go into a home?”

First, care homes are not easy to find, especially for young people with complex chronic illness.

Second, when did people start jumping right to institutionalizing disabled people again?

We both want & deserve to live independently for as long as possible

The recent court documents showed that Google's internal testing demonstrated that significantly worse search results would not harm their business operations. This apparent immunity to quality concerns stems from the company's dominant market position, which the recent federal court ruling addressed. "Since Google doesn't have any real competition, it can make the best information hard to find, forcing users to stay on Google for longer and interact with more ads," Papadimitriou said. "This is dangerous for consumers, most of whom think the best results appear first." The strategy appears to be working from a business perspective. The study suggests that poor organic search results actually benefit Google's bottom line in two ways: they make paid advertisements more valuable to users seeking accurate information, and they force users to refine their searches multiple times, exposing them to more advertising in the process.

For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

Lutnick is delusional! What the heck is this guy even talking about? The point was always to work hard so your kids grandkids wouldn't have to work in factories doing repetitive, mind-numbing tasks for as little pay as your employer could possibly get away with.
