Retired RN. Horrified by the mess we're in. Politics, health care, the environment, education, economics, the destruction of Gaza - it's a long list.
Every disaster movie begins with a scientist being ignored.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

From HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020):

"Trump covers up crime with scandal. That is his main propaganda tactic, the one few seem to be able to discern...The crimes are much worse than the scandals, but the media will always take the scandal bait."

from today's post about Bill Maher's latest episode of fucktacular toadyism —
thanks for reading it!
link to the whole
thing is here:

(longer excerpt in the alt text)
Bill, you can fuck straight off with this woe is me nonsense. read the fucking room. America is being torn apart right now. people are being disappeared off the streets. the social safety net is being blowtorched to oblivion. the last thing we need is some useful idiot waxing rhapsodic about how the monster responsible for it all is gracious and polite. for fuck’s sake, of course Donny was gracious and polite. that’s how getting conned by a conman works, Billy. Donny was carnival-barking you, telling you exactly what you wanted to hear — and you pounced on the bait like some backwoods rube who just fell off the turnip truck. step right up and win a prize! all it will cost you is your credibility. smug, whiny and easily-conned is no way to go through life, son.

@tonyromm.bsky.social : "Now, Russ Vought is in charge. And he has brought an aggressive style that marries extreme austerity with Christian values." I wonder where Tony Romm learned about the words of Jesus.

Dear @tonyromm.bsky.social can we not refer to Russell Vought's Christian values without mentioning that he seeks to throw people into poverty, crush the ability to develop new cures for diseases, attack immigrants-hardly "Christian" values. Giving him a pass on piety, unscrutinized, is stenography.

The crisis of national security is loyalty to Trump

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Choosing belief over science
apnews.com/article/rfk-...
RFK Jr. kept asking to see the science that vaccines were safe. After he saw it, he dismissed it
The man who hopes to be President Donald Trump’s health secretary says he needs to see data showing vaccines are safe, but he dismissed the evidence shown by an influential Republican senator.

It pays for health care for people who need it and can't afford insurance or the high bills. Seems to me that Republicans are finally admitting that they would love to see people dying in the streets.

I haven’t seen many folks talking about this, but it seems like eliminating the charitable status for hospitals would have a disproportionate impact on disabled and low income individuals?

Charitable funding often pays for complex care no? And research?
