I don't see a lot of people talking about this, so I want to highlight something GOOD

Billie Eilish stood in a room full of billionaires and said "you're billionaires... Why?"

She donated 11.5 MILLION DOLLARS to food equity and climate orgs, which Stephen Colbert announced to said billionaires.

Remember when Trump fired the woman in charge of the Coast Guard and kicked her out of her house with little notice? Kristi Noem is now living in that house rent-free.

A DHS spokesman said Noem must live on the military base because she had been “so horribly doxxed and targeted that she is no longer able to safely live in her own apartment.”

rfk jr. is the biggest spreader of health disinformation in the world using the most powerful platform in the world. until he resigns, is fired, or is removed by congress, we are in a very dangerous place—all of us
“And their last recommendation is to remove Robert F Kennedy Jr, secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), from office, calling his removal “the single most important step toward improving the health of Americans”

While the nation has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies.

Why?

He wants more power — and he wants to distract from his unpopular agenda.

It should be clear that America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.

The "data" package Secretary Kennedy used to bolster his argument for discontinuing #BARDA funding for #mRNA research doesn't support his argument. @jakescottmd.bsky.social lays it out in a must read for @statnews.com. www.statnews.com/2025/08/13/r...
Kennedy's case against mRNA vaccines collapses under his own evidence
“This isn't scientific disagreement. It's either staggering incompetence or willful misrepresentation,” writes infectious disease physician Jake Scott.

I wish a very happy “fuck you” to everyone who thought throwing trans people under the bus was going to stop these lunatics

Their goal has *always* been the eradication of the entire LGBTQ+ community, and they’re not gonna stop at Obergefell either

New Trump executive order attempts to define science itself as only valid if it agrees with the regime's rapacious eugenicist beliefs. Specifically designed to spread disease, ravage the world, and formally institute misogyny and race science across the country.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

When Harris said it would be $4,000, the “fact-checkers” tut-tutted and claimed what she said was only “half true” because there were some lower estimates. The “fact-checkers” lied; Harris was telling the truth.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Newt Gingrich nuked bipartisanship in 1993, and Mitch McConnell salted the earth in 2009.

Passing legislation wasn't always so hard, bipartisanship used to be fairly common, but Republicans rejected all that.

If you were born after 1994 you've literally never seen normal American politics.
