FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.”

Awaiting law enforcement.

My god it’s hideous

I as well! Was singing this whilst preparing lunch earlier today!

Harvard Will Not Comply With a List of Trump Administration Demands Federal officials said Harvard must enact “merit-based reform” in hiring and admissions and report international students who broke rules, among other steps. Harvard called the demands unlawful.

Probably the only news development that could get me singing Tom Lehrer's "Fight fiercely, Harvard"

The barons' charter ratified by the king, 1215: "To no one will we deny, delay, or sell justice"
USA, 2025: "... yeah no"

Just because one party is made up of fascists does not absolve us of the responsibility to hold the other party accountable for its inaction, neglect, dismissiveness, or lack of courage and strategy. That means holding Democrats accountable.

What kind of brain problem makes you think that on the whole, Vietnam has fucked over the United States

Think about what kind of person you have to be to lie about sending someone to a torture prison for life based on nothing bsky.app/profile/atru...

Photo of a scientist in her lab under the headline: ‘This looks bad.’ A Harvard infectious disease researcher is targeted in Trump’s review. Sarah Fortune’s tuberculosis research was the number one project on a list of threatened funding By Mike Damiano Globe Staff,Updated April 8, 2025, 2 hours ago story: Sarah Fortune Chair of the Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health posed for a portrait inside her lab at Harvard which studies tuberculosis and has been targeted by the federal government to have its funding cut. Sarah Fortune Chair of the Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health posed for a portrait inside her lab at Harvard which studies tuberculosis and has been targeted by the federal government to have its funding cut. Jessica Rinaldi/Globe Staff Tuberculosis infects more than a quarter of the world’s population, kills more than 1 million people per year, and is still a scourge at home. It has never disappeared from the United States, and there was even a recent cluster of cases in Boston, according to Sarah Fortune, a Harvard scientist leading one of the world’s preeminent tuberculosis research programs. Her lab, along with its collaborators at 11 other sites across the country and in Africa, has solved some of the crucial mysteries of this disease, and continues making discoveries that could prove life-saving for generations

Ok, time to visit the Boston Globe and see what fresh horrors await. Trump is shutting down Harvard's tuberculosis lab? Make America Bleed to Death on the Factory Floor Again

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.

Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

The midterm elections are in 579 days.

Democracy doesn’t run on vibes. Do something that matters.

Nationwide protests are planned for Saturday, April 5, against Trump and his administration

We put tariffs on an uninhabited island full of penguins but not Russia.

Very normal administration we have here.

How Investigative Journalists Actually Find Fraud, Waste and Abuse While investigative journalists immerse themselves in minutiae to identify waste and fraud, Elon Musk’s team has taken a chainsaw approach to spending based on cursory examinations. That might help…

ProPublica’s investigative reporters rely on a careful playbook for finding waste, fraud and abuse within government agencies.

It bears little resemblance to the approach deployed by DOGE against the Social Security Administration or USAID.

Did you know tapirs have built-in snorkels? Well, sort of! Their wiggly snoots aren’t just adorable; they help them sniff out snacks, grab leaves, and even act like mini trunks. 🥰

I love this

Exclusive: Dem senators condemn Trump's order against federal unions The lawmakers wrote in outrage to President Trump on Wednesday.

Make no mistake, President Trump's executive order stripping collective bargaining rights from federal workers is an attack on ALL workers. They want to take away everyone's right to organize.

Thank you, @vanhollen.senate.gov, for standing with federal workers ✊

Trump open to tariff negotiations, contradicting White House aides Trump's tariff fallout starts with layoffs, price hikes and trade war tensions, driving a broad market sell-off.

Problem is there’s no negotiating with a lunatic. He simply must be removed from office, as unfit to serve, and he must be prosecuted for his crimes, with his entire sedition rolled up right to the top of the money trail!

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"
