Let’s support this brave person who showed us what it looks like when you speak truth to power.

Me too. Biotech for 35 yrs - if RFK is confirmed we may be facing some big changes in drug development and safety, not to mention public health

I’m sorry that our nation’s funeral is held on MLK day

Yep

This woman is a sociopath

Thank goodness that other countries are studying this and taking action to resist it. The US will be in the Dark Ages for a while, but the torch will stay lit and we can adopt best practices when the MAGA fever finally breaks. We’re gonna have to go through some things but it will, eventually.

…a handful of ultra rich white men with the emotional maturity and resentment of a teenage boy who can’t get a date…

The most ignorant Americans elected Trump and he’s predictably choosing the stupidest and most corrupt cabinet members. I cannot fathom how low we will sink in decency, competence, integrity and reputation. It’s a fucking tragedy.

Subscribed. Corporate media is compromised by their profit model. Those of us who want information untainted by fear of the administration MUST support independent journalism. Join me.

The issue isn’t whether Universal Healthcare can work. The issue is how do we get from where we are to UH. It took Canada decades and it has a ton of limits we might not like. The point being we have to find a starting point that can grow it into what works here www.canada.ca/en/health-ca...

Exhibit 5,793,632 for why I don’t want to live in a world represented by Fox News. It’s all zero sum. You can’t have a choir, or celebrate freedom, or help the homeless at the same time you fight fires. These are small amounts in a HUGE budget. Just deplorable culture war BS. Garbage.

Kirk: Left wing Dems living in LA deserve to have their homes destroyed because they voted for Biden and Harris. But boy - anyone that thinks Republican governance is more competent is insane. TX can’t keep the lights on. People are sicker, poorer, hungrier and more ignorant.

Maybe Trump isn’t a genius engineer or businessman

I am overwhelmed by disappointment and a feeling of desperate urgency. Instead of running toward this existential problem and applying our best minds to solve it - the stupidest, most cynical and greedy people are in charge and are doing the opposite. Our descendants will curse us.

Is this what his supporters voted for?

Wonder how Hegseth is gonna deal with this reality

Truly the worst people in our country. I feel so embarrassed.

Evangelical Christians view Trump as God’s chosen warrior. Yet he’s the embodiment of the anti-Christ. He elevates greed, lust, gluttony, vanity, cruelty and yet they pray for and enable his success. He will bring so much needless suffering to so many. I weep.

People like Mike Johnson are living in a fantasy world constructed in their imaginations - designed to reinforce their worldview. I prefer my leaders to live in the real world, confront facts and solve real problems.

I prefer my leaders to not be hated by their extended family

We are doomed

And arts would be added back to the curriculum: music (vocal, band, orchestra), visual and performing arts

Are those Genocide Joe radicals in Michigan having any second thoughts?

It’s going to have to get much worse to break through the ignorance, greed, lack of empathy and bigotry.

And I’ll bet that 100% of these raw water enthusiasts have never looked through a microscope

“At a time when our politics is poisoned by cruelty, hate and malignant narcissism—and where too many self-described Christians appear driven by grievance and self-righteous aggression—the good works of Jimmy Carter offer a necessary reminder…of humanity.” www.americaamerica.news/p/jimmy-cart...

my armchair psychological diagnosis is that the drive to accumulate as much wealth as possible eats away at the drive for self-improvement or the internal desire to cultivate any skills or tastes. these people build huge mounds of treasure and then essentially just sit around looking at it, empty.

Man you can just hear the whispering sinister voice of Putin in his ear - and then the old fool turns around and spews his nonsense.

NIH funded research made important breakthroughs in 2024. Another reminder of why sustained funding for science and research is so vital. Of note 3 NIH funded scientists were recognized with the nobel prize. 5 top health related research highlights here 👇🏾 www.nih.gov/news-events/...

GOP is so delusional & oppositional that you wonder if Putin can do ANYTHING that will make them admit the guy is evil & a threat to the world order - including the US. I seriously doubt it. They will make up the most insane stories to justify their ongoing support. Americans better wake up.

Scary, depressing, accurate

Hahahhahahaa! You go, Denmark!

Has Fetterman become the Susan Collins of the Democratic Party?

when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment *even after the schools ended any racial preferences* then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"

Don’t forget #5 in % of residents living in poverty. These people are hungry and cold and sick.

I normally am a cautiously optimistic person who gets along with almost everyone. But man - I realize I’m expressing a lot of anger and hostility about my fellow citizens on this platform. Sorry about that. I’m clearly still angry and bewildered about the election.

Republicans cannot govern and the fools that put Trump and Co back in the White House will feel the consequences of their ignorance and stupidity. Unfortunately the rest of us will too.

Absolutely right. The greed of our wealthiest citizens is why we cannot have nice things.

For-profit healthcare is extortion. You’re making money off of desperate people. You want us to treat your cancer? Pay up! Or suffer and die. I worked my whole career in biotech and pharma. Yeah, you’re helping to save people’s lives. But it isn’t altruism if people can’t afford the medicine.

Way to go Liz. This is just insane

Looks like Rep Loudermilk is a telecom guy who was in the AF and graduated from a Bible college. Doesn’t sound like a lawyer to me. Sounds like a garden-variety MAGA cult member and Trump toadie.

Every so-called environmentalist that didn’t vote for Harris & really liked RFK or Tulsi - we will get more of this. Your choice to not vote, or to vote for Trump will lead to greater environmental damage. The Trump admin is allied with Russia & staffed w/ climate change denialists. You own this.

And guess what? You don’t run the government like a business. I want to scream every time I hear some ignorant fool say this.

This is correct

Lesson # 4,756,232 in “Billionaire tech bros are not geniuses”

Lesson # 5,865,693 in “Trump throws everyone under the bus, no matter how much you grovel and obey”

Somehow I think if dirt and trees were voting we’d have had a better outcome.
