This EO is horrific and unconstitutional and the fact that it does not include a birth certificate as proof of US citizenship is a pretty strong signal about what they think of as the future for birthright citizenship.

Has any new drug saved your life or the life of someone you know? If so, you can thank the NIH, which Trump and Musk are illegally destroying, in violation both of the law creating the NIH, and appropriations laws telling NIH what money to spend and how

Whoever puts this on their list of five things they did this week should get the employee of the year award
BREAKING: The Monitors were just hacked at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to display an AI video of Trump licking Elon Musk’s toes.
The caption over it read: “LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

I am so annoyed at the further enshittification of everything. I have enjoyed a beautiful and seamless experience with my Kindles and Goodreads for years. But now that Bozo is getting even greedier and bending the knee, that experience has come to an end. (1)

This would be helpful.
One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

If you call a concentration camp a "detention center," it's still a concentration camp. Just like if you call the Gulf of Mexico, the "Gulf of America," it's still the Gulf of Mexico.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

WA folk, there has been a bill introduced, prohibiting gender-affirming health care for trans people under 18. Take a few minutes out of your weekend to leave a comment saying "oh hell NO!"
(to clarify: being AGAINST this bill is being FOR gender-affirming health care)
