MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect.
The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April.

You know, I'm sorry about this whole Mark Kelly bullshit, but I've "Stopped" THREE separate emails from him. Since yesterday.

Y'all... the difference 18 miles makes. Left work to be on the safe side. Briefly toyed with the idea of going into town since it had just started snowing. Five miles west and there's an inch of snow on the ground and it's a full on blizzard. I'm so glad I didn't wait even one more minute to leave

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

I went to ALL the stores yesterday. Walmart, Meijer, Lowe's, Super One, Dollar General, gas station. I felt like I'd run a marathon. Of course I'd rather slam my hand in a door then go any of those places so it was a real treat but at least I had to spend too much money

I think you broke a couple of things in the recent update...I can't click on a picture in someone else's post and then expand it anymore. I'm getting mostly two-day old posts in my Discover feed and I can't access my Following feed at all. Help? Anyone else see anything weird?

I cannot imagine what could possibly go wrong in trying to court-martial an astronaut and pilot decorated multiple times for valor and exceptional service, who is also a sitting senator, for correctly making the point that service members are obliged not to follow unlawful orders
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.
