Fentanyl. Drug Overdoses, including Fentanyl, are not even in the top 20 causes of death in the USA. Cancer, Diabetes, Covid, Heart Disease all in the top 10, and all have had their research funding cut. They aren't murdering just Venezuelans. However they are killing us much slower.

SENATOR @warnock.senate.gov : “Are we reading the same Book? The Book I know says ‘I was hungry, and you fed me… I was a stranger, and you welcomed me… insomuch as you’ve done it to the least of these, you’ve done it also unto me.’” #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

Remember when we were optimistic? Pete Seeger, who was blacklisted by right-wingers for many decades of his life, somehow managed to remain an optimist through it all. Maybe he can be an inspiration for those of us that hope for a better America. youtu.be/wnvCPQqQWds?...

Our country already faces massive wealth inequality. Trump’s bill makes it even worse.

incredible moment at a party tonight when someone was like “didn’t Tolkien’s son publish some other stuff after the Silmarillion, what was it called” and it was like the heavens opened up and the sun shone on my face as my niche interest suddenly became relevant in a social situation

Are you all watching the Cat Olympic diving

The president launched strikes without congressional approval, transparency, or accountability. It’s a reckless overreach, and the American people did not vote for another endless war.

Today in Boston. Over a million people turned out. Even the drone couldn't get it all. #NoKingsDay #BostonStrong #ICEProtest

🤣🤣🤣 Trump looking absolutely inconsolable at his fascist-themed 79th birthday party which no one turned up to other than those who had to because he's their boss. No Kings Day 🤣🤣🤣

Just for fun…

Clever:

The parade is neither a roaring call to patriotism or tyrannical show of might. It's something much worse--boring

Oh my god. Trump’s army themed birthday parade is currently being broadcast by Fox, and between the circus voice announcer, the low to no [visible] attendance, and the weird, silent gaps between each unit walking by….the whole thing is not at all what I expected. It’s sad trombone level awkward.

NEW: Intelligence alerts obtained by @propertyofthepeople.org and reviewed by @wired.com show authorities are treating ICE tracking maps and the 'No Kings' protests as potential threats. @dell.bsky.social w/ the scoop. No paywall bc FOIA www.wired.com/story/no-kin...

Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) answered: “This is a lie. We all saw the video. —” She added: “If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?” All he’s done is lie since he came down that escalator.

Rep. Gomez: LA County alone is 34% foreign born, 34%. So when he says they're going to liberate us, who is he going to liberate us from? Ourselves?

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

The settlement in House v. NCAA brings an end to the NCAA's long-standing tradition of amateurism. Starting this fall, schools will be able to pay players directly up to a salary cap of $20.5 million.

I agree. Slo-mo, ongoing, with an administration engaged in frog-boiling

Some major public institutions in Canada, including a pension management firm and a leading hospital, are advising staff against traveling to the US.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Worst two-day stock market crashes in the U.S. by percentage loss: 1. 1929 (the Great Depression) 2. 1987 (Black Monday) 3. 2008 (the Great Recession) 4. YESTERDAY AND TODAY And while this happened, the man responsible for it was golfing and dining with enemies of America.

It appears this is the fourth worst back to back day for the DJIA in American history with a two day combined -8.65% loss, only trailing the 1929 crash, 1987 Black Monday, and the 2008 crisis.

Sometimes I think I’m smart but also sometimes I’ll spend several minutes wondering why the “add to cart” button isn’t working on a screenshot I took so idk

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.

This stock market crash thing is so confusing. On one hand you have every economist and bank in the free world freaking out. On the other, there are some blue check accounts on Twitter with ancient statues as their profile pics doing 20 part threads on why down is the new up. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Been thinking about this Zappa quote a lot lately.

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”
