Politics. Stupid shit. And kinda everything in between.
I don’t have a large following. And I have no idea if anyone will even see this. But I wonder if there is a gofundme specifically for a payoff to privately have Kilmar Armando returned to the states. Everyone has a price. We need cash and a plane.

A new executive order allows the Departments of Interior and Agriculture to bypass Endangered Species Act protections, to ramp up timber sales, resulting in the clear-cutting of massive tracts of federal forests.

No surprise—former Idaho timber executive,Tom Schulz, serves as U.S. Forest Chief.

"I’m old enough to remember what happened the last time the GOP tried cutting healthcare to offset tax cuts for the rich. In 2018, they attacked the ACA. That November, they lost the House by the biggest margin in modern US history. That’s the sleeping giant they’ve awoken by attacking Medicaid."
Republicans play dumb on Medicaid cuts
The GOP is engaged in bad-community-theater levels of disingenuousness.

Did you know?

There’s a directory of Black farmers: “The Black Farmers Index.”

Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.

This was the dumbest commercial of the Super Bowl.

If Snoop Dog wanted to stand up to hate, he shouldn’t have sold out and performed at Trump’s inauguration.

not sure Snoop Dogg fresh off performing at Trump’s inauguration is the best spokesperson for Stand Up To Hate tbh

As I sit doomscrolling, I come to realize a hard truth. Trump will have so many people embedded into the government that, even if we do take it back, we will spend our entire first term just unfucking and rooting out these people. I hope someone is keeping a list so we can shitcan them all day one.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.

Don’t let him.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

If the government shuts down Saturday, the richest man in the world will be largely to blame.

You may not get access to services you depend on just before the holidays because an unelected billionaire shadow president wanted it that way.

If this isn’t oligarchy, I don’t know what is.

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.
