Re-reading “1984” truly makes this administration scarier than I ever could’ve imagined.
This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

LOVING this Daily Show clip exposing how Trump and DOGE “streamlined” the federal workforce by firing true American patriots.

Also...we’re not mad about the savage Musk hairline callout at 2:41.

At this juncture I’d like to point out:
* we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing
* there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world
* a united approach could stop the climate crisis
But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

FDA regulations were established to protect us from harmful practices. Salmonella in your PB anyone? Red lead and arsenic as colorants? Yes, let’s make America healthy by removing working regulations allowing food manufacturers to add toxins to our food supply.

If Trump removes too many precautions, there’s a real chance that we’ll rediscover how dangerous a less regulated food system can be.

Authoritarian regimes run on lies. They fear the truth and people who act defiantly to tell the truth.

The four patriots who testified against this regime during our spotlight hearing exemplify courage.

Everything is interconnected - nothing in our world exists in isolation.
Great behind the scenes piece on how tariffs affect businesses. Multiply by everywhere you shop to understand pricing.
All small business owners have to deal with these price increases - even if they only offer services.
My husband and I run a game store and after all the tariff announcements, he decided to write out kind of a "behind the scenes" of how we spend and spill it out for people who don't understand. He's had so many reactions and shares I wanted to bring it here, too.

So they want the death penalty for Luigi Mangione.

Could someone, please, please, please, remind me the last time the death penalty was discussed for those mass shooting children?

99.4% of new drugs approved by the FDA are the product of NIH funded research.
Remember this every time you see another headline on the NIH funding cuts.
It will directly impact YOU.
