JFC!
I miss the good old days when most of us had a shared reality.
*More than half of the GOP believe the 2020 election outcome was the result of fraud
*More than 4 out of 10 believe 9/11 was an inside job
*37% believe the Holocaust did not happen or was exaggerate
*36% believe NASA faked the moon landing
*1 in 3 believe vaccines cause autism

The new Pentagon press corps is batshit‼️

Full of QAnon conspiracy theorists, TikTok influencers, clickbait bloggers, deep state hunters, and an accused pedo.

Not a serious journalist in the bunch.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

National public health “leadership” (hi RFK Jr 🙄) keeps poisoning public health with lies.

Vaccines prevent needless childhood deaths.

No baby in America should be dying of whooping cough — not when we have safe, effective vaccines literally ready to go.

This is a national tragedy
Third unvaccinated Kentucky baby dies of whooping cough • Kentucky Lantern
A third unvaccinated infant in Kentucky has died of pertussis as public health officials urge Kentuckians to get vaccinated against the disease.

Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

Pete Hegseth committed a war crime and then doubled down.

He instructed the military to murder civilians at sea and when there were injured victims he gave the order to kill them all.

Surviving victims were brutally dismembered at sea by US missiles.

If you think Kash Patel was bad, wait until you see the man they want to replace him with. Patel was the chaos. Bailey is the control. And control is always more dangerous.👇

Let’s get this trending.

I stand with Senator Mark Kelly USN (Rtd) because he’s a hero who stood on the line for our nation in wartime and stood by his wife, former Rep Gabby Giffords as she recovered from an attempted assassination.

It makes a loot of sense.

The right wing grifter "voice" is easy to replicate and requires no credentials or skills beyond time, shamelessness, and cruelty.

Twitter payouts for a modestly successful account aren't enough to live off in California, but will feed a family of four in Rajasthan.
I see a lot of Paidchecks on X didn’t realize that a whole lot of people on social media lie about their location to grift off the naïveté of the rage-addled American right.

Turns out this problem is real and it’s a thing those of us who worked on “disinformation” pointed out.
