“I insist on being shocked. I am never going to become immune. I think that’s a kind of failure to see so much of it that you die inside. I want to be surprised and shocked every time.” ― Toni Morrison

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

Here’s what is going on. When you start firing the military’s top lawyers, that means you are getting ready to order the military to do unlawful things. Trump replaces those JAGs with men who will justify any future unlawful and unethical actions that he wants the military to do.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Our beloved Canada is under threat. The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Hundreds of Mexican firefighters have arrived in Southern California to help combat the wildfires. Thank you, Mexico🇺🇸🇲🇽

Under Biden, the U.S. has the best economy in the world—literally the envy of the globe. The World Bank just confirmed it's stabilizing the entire world economy. Soon, 77m voters will realize they traded one of our best Presidents for a rerun of our indisputable worst.

All democracies should have regularly rehearsed contingency plans for successfully repelling domestic attempts to overthrow democracy. With aspirational autocrats increasing trying to seize power, we shouldn't discover how resilient our democracies are only at the point when they face overthrow.

I haven't made one of these for a while, so here's a heatmap that shows the monthly global temperature anomaly for 1880–2024. This shows the difference between the average temperature in each month and the 20th century average for that month. Data from NOAA: www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monit...

Hypocrisy abounds.

"Trump's tariffs could cause a family's grocery budget to swell by almost $200 next year, according to a new study. The huge corporations that dominate our food supply will protect their profits by passing the cost of the tariffs down to us. Get ready for more inflation." - Robert Reich

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains

What say you, lEon? 🤔 "Project 2025 proposes eliminating any subsidies for electric vehicles and scaling back new emissions limitations on gas-powered vehicles."

All of this.

Over the next six hours, Mr. Musk read out the spreadsheet line by line and asked workers to account for each item. He ordered some items — such as car services for executives — to be cut completely.

So relieved to finally have people like this making decisions about our health! 🤦‍♀️ #McIdiots

@hcrichardson.bsky.social letter from 11/16 on the Department of Education. To me, the dismantling of the DOE is to create and maintain a underclass of uneducated NON-voters who will feed the prison system of LEGAL slavery and constant flow of menial workers. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Earlier this week, the powerful Students for Life of America released its wishlist of federal legislation, entitled “Make America Pro-Life Again”, which takes direct aim at access to abortion pills. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

Hope you have your seatbelts on.

Someone is gunning for that yet-to-be-announced Secretary of Education post.

"While pundits have busied themselves over the past 10 days nitpicking Kamala Harris’s campaign, one thing is abundantly clear: She was held to the highest standards of leadership while Trump was held to no standard at all."

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it. Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.
