Every Republican screaming for judges to be impeached because they are blocking Trump's illegal power grab were awfully quiet when we learned about billionaires handing out gifts and vacations to SCOTUS justices — who then ruled on cases despite major conflicts of interest.

Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True.
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

-42 cases at the CFPB

-6 cases at the EEOC
-7 crypto cases at the SEC

It's a new golden age for corporate criminals.

This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.

Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.

Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

I agree. Despite everything thrown at it, it's still astonishingly quick & reliable.

I'm tired of all the arguments that it's not turning a profit.

Government is not supposed to be a business. It's supposed to provide essential services for the public good, and the USPS is just that: essential
For all the USPS's faults, Americans have to realize: It's one of the best postal services in the world, even after being kneecapped by DeJoy. Fight for our postal service, guys. I know I will. It is an essential public good.

We're in the midst of a constitutional crisis.

The world's richest man is effectively orchestrating a coup.

At the very least, Senate Dems should not be confirming any of Trump’s nominees for any agency while this power grab continues.

Nothing should be "business as usual."

Here is irony:

trump supporters wave the "Don't Tread on Me" flag, but embrace Trump's executive orders, similar to a king's decrees, which tread on the same freedoms the Gadsden Flag symbolizes.

Make up your damn minds:
You want freedom or fascism?
