They are cutting or eliminating ACA subsidies, FEMA, medical research, half of the Dept. of Education, the CDC and more. The only thing they don’t seem to be talking about cutting is taxes for middle and lower income Americans. You will be paying the same in taxes and get NOTHING in return.

Gaby Hoffman is playing Jeremy Allen White’s MOTHER in this Springsteen film? She’s less than 10 years older. Honestly, fuck Hollywood, and fuck misogyny and fuck everyone involved. Deliver ME from nonsense. #delivermefromnowhere

Okay but can someone smart tell me what is a "Pluto-like object?" Is that a, "This is similar to Pluto but it's not Pluto," or is it a "This could be Pluto, we forgot where we put it," kind of thing? #pluto #nasa #hubble

Was listening to this week’s @podsaveamerica.crooked.com and Lovett said something like, “If you stand still in the Republican Party long enough eventually you become the reasonable one,” just in reference to how far to the right they’ve swung and it is the perfect way to phrase it.

Honestly, this has to be a crime, right? How can you have a product designed to engage children in sexual conversations and that’s NOT a crime? It’s beyond repugnant. It’s immoral. But it also sounds like it’s hella illegal. #meta

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.
But who to take my medical advice from, that’s the question? Medical professionals and scientists with years of training and research behind them or a guy who drives around with rotting bear and whale carcasses strapped to his car because he wants to eat them? It’s a dilemma. #rfk #hhs
RFK Jr. is absolutely poisonous. He has now caused Dr. Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos, the person in charge of COVID19 vaccinations at the CDC, to resign.
She did so because RFK Jr. demanded that the experts in charge of vaccine guidance listen to him and not to the scientific evidence.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
