Please don’t be fooled this AP 1 Election Day.
Those candidates that have sold their integrity to the highest bidder are not public servants, they are servants to the highest bidder. Let’s stop this buying of elections and show them that although they have the money, WE THE PEOPLE have the power!

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach.

Trump, and by extension the American government, has sold out our ally and is now on the side of Putin’s despotism. This is what 77 million Americans voted for in pulling the lever for him. Trump’s fondness for Putin was no mystery. It’s a stain upon our country and a disgrace.
🚨The Trump administration is considering ending all ongoing shipments of military aid to Ukraine in response to Zelensky’s remarks in the Oval Office on Friday and his perceived intransigence in the peace process, per senior administration official

Trump thinks Zelenskyy needs to be nicer to Putin, the criminal who invaded his country unprovoked and killed hundreds of thousands of people for no good reason. Incredible.

A GOP-appointed federal judge temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for some future children born in the United States to noncitizen parents. The judge said the order is “blatantly unconstitutional.”

The new Director of the CIA is such an unabashed liar he had to remove himself from Cabinet level consideration in the old batshit times. Nowadays, egregious lying is akin to being an altar boy in this hellscape of a sycophantic shit show.
I can’t. I just can’t.
The CIA has said for years that it did not have enough information to conclude how the Covid pandemic originated. The agency has issued a new assessment this week, with analysts saying they now favor the theory that it emerged from an accidental leak at a research lab in Wuhan, China.
C.I.A. Now Favors Lab Leak Theory to Explain Covid’s Origins
A new analysis that began under the Biden administration is released by the C.I.A.’s new director, John Ratcliffe, who wants the agency to get “off the sidelines” in the debate.
