If Trump is so insistent on adding a star to the flag, there’s plenty of people in DC who are both American citizens and desiring of statehood.

How is it “illegal” to not buy a Tesla, particularly since Trump ended Biden’s (nonexistent) electric vehicle mandate?

Google has apparently needed to pause reviews for the “Gulf of America”…

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

I think it’s important to note the plane crashed because there weren’t enough flight controllers at RONALD REAGAN Airport…

TThe Constitution won’t stop Trump, people will. The Constitution is a piece of paper; it will lie there doing nothing regardless of if people listen to it or not.

The antivax movement is based off one principle-that dead children are preferable to autistic children.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

Here is a cockroach that is much better looking and more useful* than the current occupant of the White House.

*Almost all cockroach species are omnivorous critters that break down debris in the environment. They don't invade homes or bother people.

Sorry, I’m too old and set in my ways to refer to it as the Gulf of America.

Just because he has the power doesn’t make it right for him to abuse it.

At less than 48 hours, Trump demonstrated his commitment to the freedom of religion by demanding a bishop apologize for a sermon he didn’t like

Just a reminder that we’ve had the Elon conversation before

Did Elon Musk really wear a MAGA hat with a Nazi font to Trump’s MSG rally?
Musk's blackletter MAGA hat is drawing comparisons to Nazi lettering from the 1930s. Was it an accident or a troll?

It’s now been over 24 hours since Trump was sworn in.

Instead of honoring his campaign promises to focus on bringing down costs, he’s doubling down on revenge, division, and cruelty. He’s cozying up to billionaires. And he’s showing us what we can expect for the next 4 years.

Trump can’t stop the worldwide move towards green energy, he can just make sure the US isn’t competitive
Even more ironic for the US is the fact that China will now become the world leaders in green technology. How does that make America great again?

You can’t have an illegal alien who is not “subject to the jurisdiction” of the US, because if they weren’t, the law making them illegal wouldn’t apply either.
