I lost someone to suicide last night—because of this bill. I know disabled folks planning the same if it passes. They’ll lose everything. I can’t send them to the ER—they’d be released in 72 hrs with a $50k bill.
Please help. Lives are on the line

Trump and Noem opened an ICE detention center in Newark without permission and in clear violation of the city's ordinances. And when confronted by Mayor Baraska, they did what authoritarians do.
They arrested and disappeared him.

The way I describe our current crop of tech "leaders" is that they do not care for any solution to any problem unless it enriches them personally. They pretend to "disrupt" and "innovate", but they literally only care about capturing every dollar and ounce of prestige. Absolute monsters.

It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.

GOP portrays DEI as favoritism to minorities over qualified people. It has never been anything like that. It emphasizes "inclusion" of more people by providing recognition, conveniences and assistance to everyone.

A Trumpster told me today I shouldn’t live in a conservative state if I was not one. And Project 2025 claims to enact the ideals of our founding. To them I say: there is nothing conservative or representative of our founding about eliminating due process and the judiciary, or embracing a tyrant.
