We nuked two cities.
It's not a secret, we bragged about it.
We Manifested our Destiny across this whole country.
Some of us here are old enough to remember carpet-bombing Hanoi.
What part of this is surprising people?

Recognize that 95% of the electorate disagree with your choice of the "best candidate."
And then recognize that statistically almost certainly some of those 95% are smarter than you.

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

The biggest winner Tuesday night was voter turnout.

Even if your candidate didn’t win, Texans should be proud of this. Voters showed up in huge numbers.

Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best

Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!

This may be why he bombed Iran. So no would be watching him remove files about his crimes and corruption with Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ is covering up the crimes of our rapist president.

The Transgender female athletes advantage is a myth.
The Transgender female athletes advantage is a myth. YouTube video by Kirsti Miller30

In 99.9% of sports there are not enough trans athletes to study, that should gives us all some idea of the scale of the problem.

This is only an issue because Putin, Trump, the LNP in 🇦🇺 & both sides of politics in the 🇬🇧 have determined it is an issue.

Everyone in this administration is calling this a war except the people who are actually required and responsible to declare war (Congress).

If Congress called it a war.... they'd actually have to find their spines, take a stand and be counted as either for or against this war.

Virginia Lawmakers Should Pass Citizens United Trigger Law Challenging the Supreme Court’s mistaken Citizens United ruling will help spur legal change and curb the influence of big money in state politics.

Trigger laws enabled some states to ban abortion the second the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Now Virginia is considering one that would limit political spending if the Court ever overturns Citizen United. bit.ly/3OYOEOV

PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.

The Federal Book Ban bill uses funding threats to pressure schools to remove books.

Federal control over local policy - and federal control of reading, writing, and publishing - is unacceptable.

Sign the petition to stop it. action.everylibrary.org/hr_7661 via @everylibrary.bsky.social

Single Daily Tablet Shows Powerful Results for People With Drug-Resistant HIV A large international clinical trial has unveiled a promising new option for people living with highly treatment-resistant HIV.

A development such as this has been a goal for HIV researchers for decades. It is important because people who are faced with difficult treatment regimens are less likely to be compliant.

Pam.I just checked the DOW.Below 50,000 & falling. What's your snarky evasive non answer gonna be this time? Most likely:"But we killed Khoweini !"
Ya that'll bring justice to the Epstein survivors.Maybe it's time for Congress to bring justice,& impeach Bondi.Problem is,that would require courage...

I keep thinking about voter intimidation. People may not want to go to a dropbox or fear they need a passport, so they won't vote at all. I feel like we need to start training for ballot collection or make Know Your Rights cards, election style.

And don't come at me w/ "midterms aren't happening".

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay
