Emergency and disaster planner-a useful skill set right now, all things considered. Raging liberal snowflake. #ANU DMs get you blocked. Answers to Mom, Pumpkin, and Hey You. Others considered on a case by case basis. Please send coffee and yarn.

Iโve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administrationโs Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
Learning about disaster response psychology today and damn but it explains a lot about my overall existence ๐ณ
One of the more baffling things about many of the people w/whom I share political affinity, is the dichotomy that is acknowledging a whole lot of the public is either checked out/miseducated, while simultaneously demanding any political work (especially art) must advance theory somehow.
Replacing Kristi Noem with Markwayne Mullin is like taking a dump in your pants and then changing your socks.
Oregon state Democratic lawmakers approved a measure on Thursday that would prevent federal immigration officers from wearing masks. The measure is a response to the Trump administrationโs nationwide deportation efforts.
This has been an SPD tactic for years.
Remember WTO?
Well that's enough Internet for today!!
As my dad says, "you can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose".
Happy to see Noem fired. She's a wretched excuse for a person.
Markwayne Mullin is absolutely not an improvement.
It takes a huge amount of mediocre white guy energy for the US to ask UKRAINE for this kind of assistance.
Like the Ukrainians don't have anything else going on right now, & like Ancient Orange didn't basically flip them the bird when they asked for help.
I hope Zelenskiy gives us the finger.
A bit of good news:
ICE will NOT be putting a detention facility in Newport, Oregon.
This is the way.
I struggle with this constantly, thank you for this perspective! It helps โค๏ธ
I've been trying to get the Treasury's hidden Epstein files turned over since 2023. Last night I tried again to get them disclosed and Republicans blocked my bill to do so.
MARCO RUBIO:
The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran without us and then Iran retaliating
The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran without us
The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran
The imminent threat was from Israel
Funny, I had a 1992 Mazda B2200 and also a Hyundai Elantra...don't remember the year though. When my Elantra finally had it in 2015 I bought a 2008 Santa Fe and am still driving it!
And, now you know why we attacked Venezuela. I mean we always know every conflict is about oil, but this clears things up nicely, donโt you think?

People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.
DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:
Voters as โVotorsโ
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"
And, it included a non-party in the caption.
These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.
Minnesota would like a word.
Agreed. Senator McCormick can absolutely go f*** himself.
It defies logic to think that "positive" talks happening with Iran on Thursday, Hillary Clinton testifying on Thursday, Bill Clinton testifying on Friday, and Ancient Orange ordering an attack on Iran Friday night are unrelated.
"The attack came despite US intelligence assessments that Iran was unlikely to pose an immediate threat to the US mainland within the next decade."
So why do it?
"A weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia..."
Ah. Not just weak, but cheap, too.

Yeah I'd agree. But also it seems like a smart representative would make extra sure they are available and onsite both to eliminate the excuse of not having a quorum and also making sure they are distancing themselves from federal buffoonery.
