Maybe their upper management should look at salary caps for themselves before cutting the people who do the work.

Also, universal healthcare. Hire these people back when sanity takes over again.

I’ve read that he’s using this little one as a human shield. Was hoping that wasn’t true. But in this photo from the last cabinet meeting, and other ones with a window behind him, E wears a bullet proof vest, and the baby is shielding his head from window shots.
What a despicable human being.

Hope your cars are in good working order. Parts are going to become a bitch to find. Start a garden and plan to support your local farmers is the only thing I can say. This is going to suck.

Trump: Exciting news! No more anti money laundering enforcement! (Wish I was kidding)

Everything is on fire and with the new cuts to the already slim forest service, prevention measures are impossible and there aren’t enough people to fight the fires. Doubt Trump is going out with a broom.
Sorry, Smokey. You tried, buddy.

Our “Ponzi scheme” Social Security, which delivered 99.7% of retirement benefits accurately and on time, is being hollowed. Don’t expect those to get there on time anymore and good luck paying the bills.

Acting USAID Director Enrich: without USAID intervention, more than 16 m pregnant women and more than 11 m newborns will not get medical care. 1 million won’t be treated for severe malnutrition. That’s before getting to the deaths from when we stop vaccinations. Then he was placed on leave.

We all knew Umbridge was gonna take over.

One bit of good

And then he came for the trees
In the national forests
Like a fairytale villain casting death and shadow on our lands
Of all the awful lately, this one guts me.

No wonder he didn’t touch the Bible when swearing to uphold the Constitution. He would have been struck by lightning.

Free speech, he says. While Trump threatens to take away the funding he’s already illegally pulled if students attempt to speak. What an odd thing to pretend to care about now.

So very excited for this final book in The Black Witch Chronicles, which has a fascinating magic system, and feels so timely, promoting unity in the face of extreme othering division.

Cranberry Cloud: 1 part brandy, 1 part cranberry juice, 1 part egg white, splash of vanilla. Shake 30 seconds, add crushed ice, shake another 30, strain into glass. Yummy lowish carb drink with protein

1 1/2 c cranberries, 1/2c sugar, boiling water to melt sugar, and bring to within an inch of the top, then can for 20 minutes. Cranberry juice ready in 6 months, craisins in 7-10 business days after that.
