It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Trump obviously had the Epstein files redacted. They didn't even hide it. So im much more interested in hearing testimony from the victims. Bring them in to a grand jury - then release the testimony. This is national security. We can't let pervert Don alter reality to his liking.

This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027.
And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should.

Viewing this whole Trump nightmare from afar, it's truly amazing how anyone can make every single event about themselves. Somehow he manages to insert himself into everything. And while we're at it. Why the fuck is Jared Kushner anywhere near any US state business?

Insurance won’t have to pay for it, so lots of kids won’t get it, then sick kids will suffer and die and become sick adults, and also kill grandma who was protected by *our* immunity suppressing transmission. It’s like they want you to get sick so they can blame you and sell you stuff.

It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).
