Why stop there? Let’s rename all Depts after what Trump is inflicting on America. Dept of HHS -> Dept of Hepatitis and Human Suffering Dept of VA -> Dept of Veteran Abandonment Dept of Education -> Dept of Erasure of History Dept of Commerce -> Dept of Corruption Just a start.

Don’t only gerrymander “if Republicans do it in Texas.” What are you, stupid? How much more fucking evidence do you need, shit for brains? They’re doing that and so, so much more. Go scorched Earth on these fascists or go fuck yourself.

The British media outlet ITV also went on a Jordanian airdrop and simply ignored the Israeli government’s illiberal demands: www.itv.com/news/2025-08...

A journalist with Canada’s public broadcaster was not allowed on the Canadian plane air dropping aid into Gaza because of Israeli restrictions. When she made it onto a Jordanian plane, she was not allowed to film what she saw on the ground in Gaza because Israel forbids it from being shown.

This is part of their plan. If it's not a hurricane, diseases like chikungunya fever, dengue fever, malaria, yellow fever, and Rift Valley fever might save them some money, too.

It seems there's an evacuation plan for "Alligator Alcatraz" in Florida, in case of a hurricane emergency...but it's heavily redacted. This is a major disaster brewing. My guess: there is no real "evacuation plan"...except for staff.

Important thing to beat people over the head with: Trump has turned American cities into warzones and for fucking what? Prices are way up, jobs will be way down, the dollar is worth less, and now the highway is blocked off by cops. Maybe the Great Mythical Immigrant wasn’t the problem after all.

A US trade court just blocked Trump’s illegal tariffs. “The Manhattan-based Court of International Trade said the U.S. Constitution gives Congress exclusive authority to regulate commerce with other countries that is not overridden by the president's emergency powers to safeguard the U.S. economy.”

reuters.comUS court blocks Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffsA U.S. federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs from going into effect, ruling that the president overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from nations that sell more to the United States than they buy.

RFKJr's statement that "NIH spends 70% of the world's research dollars but we are the sickest country in the world" is not evidence that those dollars are being misspent. It is, however, an indictment of the corporate healthcare model in the U.S.

really good article about what living through Helene was like for folks in Yancey Co. brought me back the anxiety of it for minute but worth reading.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

it would be really great if businesses would explicitly display a "teriff surcharge" amount so, people know how much trump is screwing them over

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!
