🤮 so disgusting. I went to college in the 90’s and it most assuredly was NOT to find myself a husband.
Charlie Kirk thinks little girls just want to go to college to find a husband.
This clip is so creepy.

OMG. I LOVE this idea.
If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels.
They opened the drawbridge to block them.
So they marched to a different bridge.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy.
Third time’s the charm, I guess.

So many questions. Why does the main character look like Musk? Why does anti-trans Trump have bearded belly dancers in the video? What’s with the golden statue reminiscent of a particular commandment in the Bible (& of Saddam Hussein’s statue that was toppled). The whole thing is absolutely insane!
Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

Glad to see our friends at PEPFAR out there on the front lines. HIV funding cuts KILL people.
Trump pardons violent people who attacked officers, but peaceful protest—that’s where we draw the line.

I know there's a lot going on right now, but HIV workers could use your help:
Word from people doing visits to Congress today, Congressional staff need to hear from constituents about proposed funding cuts to Medicare, & how important Ryan White funding is for HIV prevention. Please call! Thanks!

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.
I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

It’s time to fight.
To every Senate Dem: Shut it the fuck down. Trump’s unconstitutional chaos will kill people.
1️⃣ Oppose all nominees until OMB reverses the freeze.
2️⃣ Deny Unanimous Consent to slow Senate proceedings.
3️⃣ Vote no on all Cloture.
4️⃣ Force Quorum Calls at every opportunity.

Per an NIH source:
“Discussions with colleagues have suggested that if the universities all come together and raise hell about the delays to funding caused by not holding meetings, that might move the needle. From every state. There are well-funded universities in red states that will be impacted.”
