IUPAT President @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social is right:

Temporary Protected Status recipients are rigorously vetted, pay taxes, and do work in critical industries. They are part of our communities and our unions—they deserve respect and protection.

America’s unions will keep fighting for them.

Portland woman testifies that police lied about ICE activity in Oregon when 12 to 15 agents surrounded her vehicle, and she called 911 for help on December 10th. "I have a question for the police. If you refuse to do your job, are you prepared for us to do it for you?"

This is weird and unhinged and deranged, with a side of dangerous parenting thrown in for good measure.

There is no bottom for the cult.

Wasn’t aware that Christmas meant to worship an evil criminal like a North Korean dictator. This is some sick shit.

Just to be clear. It’s the John F Kennedy center legally.

Just like it’s still the department of defense

Republicans, and Trump, are hypocrites
propublica.org ProPublica @propublica.org · 2d
ProPublica could not find evidence Trump ever lived at either of the two Florida properties he claimed as principal residences in the 1990s.

Legal documents and other records from the period give his address as Trump Tower in Manhattan.
Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal
The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing ...

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Just talked to my 84 year-old mom who thought he was referring to a mental status exam which is routinely given to people 65+ by their doctor. Nope - this is cognitive testing which is only given when there are signs of dementia. Three times means they are measuring rate and extent of decline.

I'm no psychologist but I've always had 4 personal rules of engagement:

1. Have the humility to acknowledge you just learned some new info and need to research it.

2. Admit you're wrong when you know you're wrong.

3. Apologize when you know you've done wrong.

4. Lose the reactionary impulse.

I want to scream out loud at the depths of dishonor, disrespect and lack of decency that the Board showed in choosing to dishonor the memory of President John F. Kennedy by adding current POTUS’ name to the memorial. It’s like desecrating the tomb of the unknown soldier at Arlington. A perversion!💔

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

He can slap his nasty name on every building, bridge, ship, stadium, roadway, golf course, watch, bible, shoe, coin, phone, toilet stall (🤔), park, airport etc in the USA. None of it will make him any less of a POS than he is. In fact, if anything, it makes him look worse. If that’s even possible.

Anyone notice that Speaker Johnson subtly dismissed Congress today so that they won't be in session on Friday?

Hmmm, anything big set to happen on Friday that might upset people?
