I called everyone in Jeffrey Epstein's little black book. What I learned about rich people, conspiracy, Ghislaine, stand-up comedy, and evil from 2,000 phone calls.

The bird dance for the ages

The President is currently on a taxpayer-funded golfing vacation

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Neil Stone (@DrNeilStone ). The tweet reads: "RFK Jr has cut Alzheimers research. ALZHEIMERS. One of the most devastating, urgent and increasing health problems we face today. He’s not interested. He’s a nasty piece of work."

Gen Z and Millennials: In ten years when we’re still without a cure and you’re caring for your parents, remember what he did.

Hey folks I'll be talking to @maddow.msnbc.com in a few minutes about this incredible global Hands Off mobilization. Please tune in and then show up tomorrow!

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse.

2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report."

3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes."

This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

Bottom right i think. They all look like AI

Oh look. Both of my senators.

Time to start blowing up their phones again.

Screenshot of the Atlantic Signal exchanges, including Michael Waltz saying "the first target - their top missile guy - we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend's building and it's now collapsed".

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

SIGNAL GATE is a threat!

The incompetence that many of us knew existed prior to the confirmation of these individuals is on full display for the WORLD & it’s weakening US, collectively.

The fact that there is an obsession over wanting me silenced tells me that I need to speak out more. 🫶🏾

This continues to be the biggest story in the country: DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars in 6 weeks. Not billion. half a trillion, $500 billion talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

Huh

Beavers are able to feel water currents, and understand flow. They're able to smell underwater,

Sorry, let me emphasize, SMELL UNDERWATER,

because they've got bitching double-valved noses. Combine that with their scent marking language, and they get a lot of information about their environment.

I’m tellin ya. It’s AOC. 34,000 people today in Denver.

Under the House GOP’s budget plan, the lowest-income taxpayers would see a LOSS of $1,125.

The richest 0.1 percent of taxpayers, on the other hand, would see a more than $180,000 GAIN.

This is trickle down economics on steroids.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

BREAKING: A court overturned Ohio's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth.

This is a critical victory for trans rights.

I sincerely think that universities should suspend their productivity standards for scientists and ask them instead to hold town halls in schools, public libraries, museums, shopping malls, and anywhere else and communicate what is being lost with the collapse of the research ecosystem.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.”

WOW. Planes in air must turn around.

A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

Apropos of nothing, thinking of NOAA's PSL site, which if for some reason were to get punted offline because of <waves hands and gestures generally> would be a devastating loss for atmospheric science, and I sure hope that someone more skilled than I has a contingency to try to replicate this stuff.

a zebra and a cheetah are running in a field with the words headlikeanorange on the bottom Alt: A zebra running after a cheetah to trample it to death.

You may not know this, but Zebra aren't just stripey horses. They're quadrupedal satans in dazzle camouflage.

Six thousand years of agriculture hasn't been able to make a dent in their *notoriously murderous* attitudes. They chase and kill their own predators.

A comparison, showing a hippo standing in shallow water, and a see-through model of a hippo with an extremely thin layer of subcutaneous fat and skin over a body that's thick with muscle.

Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle.

2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%.

The average human is around 20-40%, for reference.

They're *all* muscle.

TWO GIRLS IN THE ENTIRE STATE OF MAINE! FEWER THAN 10 IN ALL OF THE NCAA! i know true believers can't be swayed, but i think hammering these numbers is important for the average person to understand that republicans are OBSESSSSSSED with such a minuscule group of people and it's fucking weird!
