Waymo admitted under oath: their cars have human drivers in the Philippines. (From “Parkrose Permaculture”) Just hire Uber/Lyft drivers! Say you’re protecting drivers and riders. Look patriotic. And have a stable business and public trust. Seems stupid to tell this lie just to look like a tech bro.

For transparency: am responding to a headline without watching the YT video, so Probably shouldn’t complain about others’ stupidity. Got caught up in the momentary pleasure of a non-JE scandal.

So Trump, Johnson, and JD are endlessly repeating the lie that Dems want to shut down the government to get healthcare for "illegals." So why are Dem leaders not on every TV and social media platform debunking this?

I understand bailing out farmers who suffered some sort of natural disaster or blight to their crops from a parasite, disease, etc. But that’s not what is happening. They can’t sell their abundant crops because of one man. Trump did it, he can pay the farmers out of his crypto.

Speaker Mike Johnson is delaying the swearing in of the new House Member because she’ll be the 218th vote to force the release of the Epstein Files. He pretends to be a good Christian man while protecting violent child rapists.

The American people aren’t requesting or getting anything free. We demand value for OUR TAX MONEY, including comprehensive healthcare and decent retirement. We produce EVERYTHING and are robbed blind by our public servants for their inhumane wealthy donors. SHAME ON YOU. #nurembergonthepotomac

Why Won’t Farmers Rebel Against Trumponomics? Because They’re Rich. The majority of “family farmers” aren’t working-class strivers. They’re affluent, politically connected businessmen who know when their next bailout is coming.

Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

The GOP defrauds daily. NYT: “GOP senators steered around the parliamentarian in April, when they pushed through a budget blueprint that deemed the continuation of Trump’s tax cuts cost-free—though nonpartisan budget scorekeepers estimate it will cost $4 TRILLION OVER A DECADE.”

Trump has ordered criminal investigations into more than 50 federal employees so far, including former intelligence officials, political rivals, and even members of his own administration. He has declared some “guilty of treason,”

Donald Trump said he wasn't cutting Medicare or Medicaid! Well he just cut my medicare. They're now taking 182 out a month to pay what Medicaid was paying before! That's both cutting Medicare and Medicaid! I didn't vote for this!!! So they're taking from me to pay for tax cuts for the rich!!!🤬

Important story from the NYT this morning: The President running a crypto operation with largely anonymous offshore investors at a time when he regulates the industry is a huge red flag that you can’t imagine being tolerated by Washington or the public in any other era.

HSI- Homeland security investigations This is a large group of armed agents within Homeland security. They have no public profile, they are masked and they answer to no one but the president. They are breaking into people's homes with guns drawn. This is deadly.

Despite promises of cuts from Trump and Elon, the U.S. spent about $220 billion more in the first 100 days than it did last year. We’re spending far more and getting far less. So where is all the money going?

Carlos Uzcategui waited 9 months in Mexico to enter the US legally. He was arrested and sent to a concentration camp by a lawless traitor because of tattoos. His wife knew his fate only when she saw his face in photos of CECOT torture camp. Not in my name. #MayDay www.wsj.com/world/americ...

Dear Democratic Party, Fund state-level resistance infrastructure. Don’t just send postcards. Send resources. Channel DNC funds into rapid-response teams, legal defense coalitions, sanctuary networks, and digital security training.

Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise." Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically *why* vaccine trials don't use placebo arms. Ethical violation as POLICY.

How brief is memory. Yesterday we passed almost unnoticed the 50th anniversary of the US’s ignominious evacuation of Saigon, ending our involvement in our Southeast Asia war. Make America Great Again (like that?)

BREAKING NEWS: “We forced a vote to stop the damage Trump’s tariffs are doing to American families. But Senate Republicans just voted to keep the tariffs in place that are hurting families. They are Trump’s enablers, his collaborators, his co-conspirators.—Sen Schumer #BlueSky #MedSky
