🧪⚛️ The FY26 budget was signed in the first week of February. NSF still has not had its spending approved all the way. Is Congress going to push back on this, or are they ceding a pocket recision? Halfway through FY26, and NSF has only obligated 7% of its supposedly authorized funds.

The Constitution is decidedly anti-king. Not only does it prohibit the United States from conferring titles of nobility, but it also prohibits its officers from accepting any “Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

democracydocket.comNo kingsOn Saturday, when millions of Americans took to the streets and declared "no kings," they were objecting to  Donald Trump's disregard for these constitutional limitations.

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

Dani Phantom reposted

If all these rich men "regret" their time with Epstein then why didn't they announce prior to the release of the files that their names would be part of the collection? Why didn't they self-report? The answer is they are not sorry and have no regret. They are sorry and regret they got caught.

Such is the outrage in Denmark over both Trump’s desire for Greenland and disparaging remarks about NATO that one of the country’s leading newspapers devoted their Saturday front and plenty of room inside to the bios of all 44 Danes slain during NATO missions in support of the US

Liam made people look. Now don’t look away. We still have children in ICE custody eating bad food, drinking questionable water, living in filthy conditions, and carrying a lifetime of trauma they shouldn’t have to survive. #FreeTheChildren

This is not the conduct of any US law enforcement. This is a disorganized mugging by thugs, the kind you find in the Proud Boys, III Percenters, and other right-wing extremist groups. We need to know where these people came from, and who hired them. NOW. These people are domestic terrorists.

Another view of the shooting.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

The federal government is gunning people down in the streets, lying about what happened and then preventing any independent investigation of the killings

People are viewing this from inside of personal relationships which makes sense because I mentioned people in my life, but I’m intended to ask if there are ways to weaken filter bubbles societally.

These echo chambers are made by recommendation algorithms, by social connection (and rupture), by our own biases, and by deliberate propaganda machines. They seem impenetrable.

Dani Phantom reposted

Does anyone have any idea how we break the echo chambers? No Trump voter in my family will ever know what actually happened to Alex Pretti or Renee Good. They will believe the officers were justified. They will watch Fox News and that will be the end of it.

There is going to come a time in your life when you are chatting with a guy, at a barbecue or something, a new coworker maybe, a dad at school drop off, and he tells you he used to be in ICE. You’re going to need to spit on that guy

"Every day at noon, no matter how busy, Johny Merida Aguilar left his construction job and hurried to his 5-year-old son's school to feed him. His son has brain cancer and generally only accepts food from his father. Merida Aguilar was arrested by ICE in September and faces deportation to Bolivia"

Threatening to take it "the easy way, or the hard way". ...Iceland, Greenland, piece of ice...whatever. When you're a 🌟, "they LET you do "it"". That's been his conduct since F O R E V E R. #PieceofICEGRABBER

The thing about America today is that if you just describe what is happening objectively and unemotionally you sound hysterical and partisan and what you have to remind people is that the reason for that is not you, it's the people doing the things you are describing

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally
