Oh, absolutely great stuff MAGA,
you utter muppets.
In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

I would say that in a highly competitive media landscape like New York City, you would actually want more and not fewer reporters here competing for the news
This morning, Executive Editor Andrew Julien, citing a "a highly competitive media landscape," told NYDN staff to expect layoffs.

The first cuts are primarily hitting our National Desk, but we're also losing some metro staffers and more cuts are expected — more than 25% of the unionized newsroom.

I suppose I’m being pedantic, but isn’t anyone from a country with a Latin derived language “Latin?” Which would be French, Spanish, Romanian, etc al., but most definitely including Italians?

Anyway, Loomer’s “de-whiting” close to half of Europe would be funny if the intent were not so sinister.
Italians, your white card has been revoked. Stefani Germanotta is a perfidious latin

Pretty gross…
A friend recently bought me these Tiny Tates Gluten Free cookies and they're pretty delicious. I googled them to see where I could buy more but instead this popped up.

Gross. Evil.

I'll find another sweet treat.

Disband ICE and prosecute ICE criminals and their supervisors. All the way to the top.
I recorded this today, in Portland, Oregon, at a huge march to the ICE facility in SW. The crowd was full of cyclists who had ridden there in memory of Alex Pretti; members of several labor unions; and ordinary citizens of every age, including this little girl. So of course ICE deployed tear gas.

I didn’t go to no fancy journalism school, but I thought it was the job of the press to help us get to the truth, not just stand on the side and shrug, “Who knows?”

The @nytimes.com is unwilling to report the news and instead resorts to official stenography. This is not new, of course…

What a failure of journalism.
By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

It’s great to see NY’s newest Senator speaking out against the overreach of the executive branch.



Actually this is the Mayor and nobody has heard from either of NY’s Senators… where could they be? @schumer.senate.gov @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

Well this is terrifying. The absolute insanity of this, and the fact that this (and loads of other previous things) will STILL be insufficient for even Democrats (forget about bootlicking Republics) to call for impeachment. And the media will ignore it and so will Americans.

I don’t agree with all the specifics listed here, but in general? It would be absolute horrific. Absolutely insane that this is not on the front pages every day.

shameful.
She said she was headed to a doctor's appointment. Federal agents still attacked her.

Earlier today in Minneapolis, journalist Amanda Moore (@noturtlesoup17.bsky.social) documented a tense, chaotic federal operation near 34th Street and Park Avenue.

ICE kidnaps a 17 year old American citizen from his job at Target… and Target apparently lets them in the door to do it.
There is a longer version of the video of a kidnapping of this kid - there really is no other word for it - here. As he is being shoved into the DHS vehicle he breaks down. At about the 2 minute mark you hear a DHS agent say "wow - fucking child" sarcastically.

Given the Epstein stuff just released, maybe we won’t actually have to wait for a Democratic majority….

Then again, I’m continually amazed at what MAGAs think is just fine, perfectly OK, and whatabout.

He’s gilded the entire White House, slapped his name on both the Kennedy Center and Institute for Peace, installed a new Trump Gold Card, and now proposing a new “Trump class” of naval vessels.
