I swear maybe once a decade in public, and this is the moment. This fucking racist and all the gibbering racists nodding along behind him are the ruination of our country. Our fucking job for the next fucking year is to fucking destroy them in the next election. Fuck them.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

The Trump/Kennedy body count grows.

(There should be a counter out there somewhere.)
6 people have died from a nationwide listeria outbreak.
31 babies have been hospitalized with botulism from contaminated baby formula.
Instead of firing crucial FDA employees & attacking the agency, Trump should be hiring more experts to crack down on these dangerous outbreaks.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

Nature is not sentimental about reproduction. Less than 1% of the acorns on the forest floor will ever become oaks. 200 years ago, the mortality rate for human infants was no better than that of any other large mammal. The idea that "Nature" will guide you to a perfect Instagram-worthy birth is nuts

/11 Trump is what he is: an increasingly demented jumble of personality disorders prone to barking out whatever angry stupid thing pops into his head. And he’s the “leader of the free world.”
But many politicians who took an oath to uphold the Constitution will echo his lawless dreck.

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

Yes, we are merely discussing the age range of the verified rapist’s victims.
And it would help this effort if every Dem said something along the lines of "We *know* he rapes women. The only question is does he also rape girls."
The message from Dems the rest of the year should be simple: Trump must resign over Epstein

In the US, law enforcement isn't just legally allowed to lie to you, they're ENCOURAGED to. OTOH, your lawyer is legally prohibited from lying to you and can lose her license for it.
Which of those professions, though, do you reflexively associate more with lying?
You're not immune to copaganda.

I have to say, it's not clear to me that the Dems have made a "huge mistake". Extending the ACA subsidies would have been a huge gift to the Rethugs at the midterms - hiding what their Ugly Bill will do. Now Trump and the Rs are on record as being eager to starve people and kill their healthcare
