Donald Trump won less than half of the popular voteβwhich, given the turnout, amounts to less than one-third of registered voters. His margin of victory was the tightest since 2000, the fourth tightest since 1940.
So no, despite everything Trump claims, he does not have a "mandate" for any of this.
Grateful for this small bit of hope from @rbreich.bsky.social.

Glad Trump had the chance to waste millions of taxpayer dollars to fly over the Daytona 500 and then ride The Beast on the track as parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee are underwater. Priorities.

Walter Isaacsonβs biography of Elon Musk depicts a man who wields more power than almost any other person on the planet but seems estranged from humanity itself.

If you eat animal protein, you should be paying attention to the rapid spread and variants of H5N1 bird flu and how itβs effecting humans. Additionally, same deal for pet owners, particularly for those who are feeding their furr-babies a raw diet.

UPDATE: The strain of bird flu is distinct from what has previously been found in dairy cattle. The finding raises some worrying questions β and concerns over the Trump administration's muted response.

It seems that we are collectively better at reacting with righteous anger than we are at preventing the fuckwittery in the first place. But at least there is some fight in us.
