DO NOT COMPLY.
When I'm not railing against our criminal president and the dismantling of government, I like to talk about science fiction, Star Trek, comics, and pop culture.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc
The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands

How long has Sam Beckett been pretending to be Marjorie Taylor Greene and what does he have to do to leap?
Greene: "I will praise Nancy Pelosi. She had an incredible career for her party. I served under her speakership in my first term in Congress and I'm very impressed at her ability to get things done. I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party."

Trump did on 60 Minutes what he does every time. He spews a blizzard of lies, exaggerations and assorted other falsehoods, and if (as usual) the reporter isn’t equipped or doesn’t bother to push back, he keeps going.

Here is a detailed list, via @mehdirhasan.bsky.social
zeteo.com/p/factchecki...
![• "We have no inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "It's at 2%. It's-- it's the perfect inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "Right now [grocery prices are] going down." Grocery prices are up 1.4% since
Trump came to office.
• "A year ago, we were a dead country." Not only did the US have the fastest-growing economy in the G7 in both 2023 and 2024, but the Economist magazine called it "the envy of the world."
• "11,888 murderers were let into our country." Not only is this number inaccurate, but many of the non-citizens convicted of homicide either here or abroad came in during Trump's first term.
• "Washington, DC, was... almost like a crime capital of the world." In 2023, per PolitiFact, "at least 49 other cities in the world had higher homicide rates.
• "[Biden] hardly went anywhere. Guy couldn't leave his bedroom." Not only did Joe Biden visit roughly as many countries in his term of office as Trump did in his first term, but Biden was the first US president to visit an active warzone - Ukraine - not under the control of US forces.
• "I made Middle East peace. For 3,000 years, they couldn't do it." There is no peace in Palestine, no peace deal in place, and it isn't a 3,000-year-old conflict.
• "Communist, not socialist. Communist. He's far worse than a socialist."
Zohran Mamdani is not a communist.
• "I can't give them $1.5 trillion so that they can give welfare to people that came into our country illegally." The Trump/GOP claim that Democrats want to give free healthcare to undocumented immigrants has been repeatedly debunked.
• "They emptied their mental institutions and their insane asylums-- into the United States of America." Asylum seekers don't come from "insane asylums."
Obviously.
• "One thing I can tell you, the 2020 election was rigged." It wasn't. The courts agreed.
• "And a lotta people say when it's rigged you're allowed to do it again." A lot of people don't say this. The US Constitution doesn't, for sure.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:svawqo4jxobyyuqmixplvcux/bafkreicrg2pdihe5ntgygv6uxk37yldeygsbewwpbsjw7a7xwqjohmap6i@jpeg)
