Call me a pessimist but a 1.3per cent chance of being wiped out by the asteroid in 7 years time does not sound that small at all www.bbc.com/news/article...

Picture this: a South African billionaire, neck-deep in your confidential info from the US Treasury, doing who-knows-what with it. Plus, he’s got a vendetta against USAID for dismantling apartheid while he lived it up as a privileged white boy in SA–so he’s causing chaos and killing babies in Africa

Elon Musk is "unelected" and "unvetted" and has "absolutely no security clearance," yet Trump is letting him "gut" USAID and Treasury, says Rep Don Beyer. "It's a huge gift to China and Russia." On the pod, Rep Beyer explains why legal action can still stop Musk: newrepublic.com/article/1910...

Per Musk: "Time for USAID to die" "An illegal & unconstitutional overreach by Musk, an unelected billionaire, who has illicitly seized control over USAID, an agency that oversees foreign assistance & fought South African apartheid." This attack will put K's of children globally at risk of death.

OK, here's the skinny... RFK, Jr., is BATSHIT CRAZY and Republicans Senators are about to confirm him as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Courtesy of @maddow.msnbc.com here's just a snippet of things RFK, Jr., has said:

During today’s confirmation hearing, RFK Jr. claimed he was citing an NIH study—but here’s proof he lied. When he was a candidate, he told a private NYC dinner that COVID-19 was *ethnically targeted* and that Ashkenazi Jews & Chinese people were the most immune. He’s a racist, antisemitic lunatic.

Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!!

The real problem of This

He saw this coming almost 30 years ago

Trying to imagine pitching this movie 50 years ago: “So this guy from apartheid goes to America and cons his way to collecting half a trillion dollars and buys a President with it. Then he starts to order Congress around from his computer which is actually a portable telephone.”

Billionaires have more money than they could ever need but never enough to fill the holes in their souls. They would send every last one of you into an early grave if it meant paying one cent less in taxes.

Sound about right.

President-elect Muskrat and his servant Dotard.

The assassinated Russian general was heavily involved in spreading misinformation about the US. Kirillov claimed the US was plotting to use infected mosquitoes to give Russian troops malaria.

This is what a world without Trump would look like.

The truth preached here.

Super rare magenta aurora in the sky over Finland ✨

I knew it was going to be a shit show. But I didn’t expect it to be a shit show a month before he even takes office.

I think this falls into the "Sad but true" category

I don't either.

President Musk owns him now.

RFK Junior: “I left a dead bear in Central Park, but not a backpack.”

Lets hope Assad finally gets pushed out, but then we need to keep a close eye on the rebel takeover which might be just as problematic as it was before.

On this date in 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by the imperial forces of Japan. The loss of life and destruction was horrific, and it pulled the U.S. into the war. For Japanese Americans, it was a terrifying time. Overnight, we became the “enemy within” because we were of Japanese descent. /1

What happened to this country?

Another reminder not to screw with mother nature. Just look at the power and beauty on display here.

Absolutely stunning - things like this help me forget the shitty behavior of some humans.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.

This is an oligarchy. The founders never intended people to have this much power… EVER Stop the oligarchy

From cozying up to dictators like Putin to switching positions and parties as soon as it's politically advantageous, the only quality of Tulsi Gabbard's you can rely on is her selfish thirst for power. That makes her a very dangerous pick to lead our national intelligence.

You can put lipstick on a pig, you can polish a turd, and you can put an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon in the Oval Office, it won't change who they are. He will forever be a convicted felon. A lame duck with no mandate. Don't just give in to him. DEFY HIS ASS. #TheDefiance
