How did we reach this point with this hateful bloated bag of wind? Besides half the population is racist and stupid, the politicians got behind him. Why? Their lifelong jobs were threatened. Solution? Term limits for all. 2 terms, 3 years each. If they have temp jobs, they won’t mind losing them.

Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/

FDA Bans 19 Chemicals Used In Antibacterial Soaps
Manufacturers didn't provide data showing the chemicals are safe and effective, the FDA says. It says there's no evidence that they do a better job at preventing illness than plain soap and water.

It is an honour to be a short term guardian

You don’t ‘own’ ancient woodland, you have a duty of care until, when its time, you find a suitable guardian to pass the baton on to

The Trump Admin will fire you for having a Pride flag on your desk but downplays & normalizes swastikas & nooses?

Over 400,000 Americans died fighting Nazism. Hundreds of thousands died fighting slavery & Jim Crow.

This is a slap in the face to every American who died to defeat bigoted ideologies.
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

What do these corporations all have in common?

-Lockheed Martin

-Apple
-Meta
-HP

They all have lucrative government contracts — and they're all donors to Trump's ballroom.

I hope you are spending a huge amount of money on lawyers you traitor @jamescomey.bsky.social
“.. The exchange was a significant moment: If career prosecutors initially urged against bringing the case, it could support Comey’s claim that the charges against him were brought with a political motive.”

I think the reason MAGAts like Trump is because they don’t like to think and his name is only one syllable that sounds like a grunt.

His real family name is even more so. Drumpf.
