So fighting for the Robert E Lee statues wasn’t really about just preserving history.

I’m shocked.

At this point, I think there needs to be a boycott of donations to all Senate Democrats until they force Chuck Schumer to step down as leader. Enough is enough.

Stop listening to dinosaurs. Stop paying the consultants that got us here. Stop asking for money instead of telling us what you’re going to do to fight back. The DC bubble has never been more glaring to me than ever. People out here are absolutely pissed and scared. Figure that out fast!

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

NEW — The National Treasury Employees Union Chapter 282 just emailed its ~8,000 employee members strongly advising them NOT to reply to the “What did you do last week?” email from OPM/Musk.
NTEU National Treasury Employees Union CHAPTER 282 Good evening NTEU Members, You may have recently received an email from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) requesting that you submit a bullet-point summary of your work from last week. NTEU strongly advises you NOT to respond to this OPM request at this time. Here's why: • We work for HHS/FDA, not OPM: OPM directives that have not been formally adopted or communicated by our employer, the FDA, do not create an obligation for you to respond. • Lack of Concurrence: This request appears to have been issued without the necessary coordination and agreement from the FDA. • Protecting Your Rights: We are concerned about the implications of this request and are actively working to protect your rights and interests. • Protecting Your Rights: We are concerned about the implications of this request and are actively working to protect your rights and interests. • NTEU Action: NTEU National and our Office of General Counsel are aware of this situation and are taking immediate action. We are gathering information and will provide you with comprehensive guidance before the arbitrary deadline stated in the OPM email. What you should do: • Do not respond to the OPM email. • Retain the OPM email for your records. • Monitor your email for further updates from NTEU.

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it.

So we moved over to blue sky.

Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-)

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

Birthright citizenship remains the law of the land. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
point out, it is also unworkable. (See Dkt. No. 69-1 at 17.) The recordkeeping and administrative burden from such an arrangement, (see id.), ' also mandates nationwide relief. Nor is it clear what, if any, prejudice the Government would suffer from nationwide relief. In its brief in opposition, it points to none. (See Dkt. No. 84 at 57-59). For all these reasons, the Court finds that relief must be nationwide. Anything less is ineffectual. III. CONCLUSION Citizenship by birth is an unequivocal Constitutional right. It is one of the precious principles that makes the United States the great nation that it is. The President cannot change, limit, or qualify this Constitutional right via an executive order. The Court GRANTS the i Plaintiffs' motions for a nationwide preliminary injunction (Dkt Nos, 63, 74) and ENJOINS enforcement or implementation of the Order on a nationwide basis.

Thanks Canada, for a reminder that needs to be said, out loud!
