If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

2 haikus that came to me tonight. Silence is violence.

Trapped not by choice
Held hostage by a a tyrant
While the world watches

Fuck (4 syllable world leader N-u)
He murders relentlessly
The world’s a coward

Their incompetence can be masked in business fields but Trump and Elon playing ceo of America has real world consequences and why adults are needed and not flunky nepo babies making choices. In business they lose their own money, but in charge of the us their ineptitude costs lives.
I can’t stop thinking about the kidney transplant doctor who was deported in spite of a court order protecting her.

This is just the beginning. When people are disappeared without warning, there are significant ripple effects.

Her patients will suffer. Kidneys may go to waste. People may die.

This is why American monopolistic socialist capitalism sucks. No competition and why we’re falling behind. We have the innovation it’s just being stifled by ignorant broligarchs who lack vision.

DUI hire can’t stop himself from drinking so he’ll even celebrate and anti imperialism holiday so he can get lost in the sauce. Funny they don’t realize the Irish hate colonizers more than most Europeans but you’d have to read a book.

A recent haiku I was inspired to write by current events.

Anxious and alone
Divided by lies, rumors
They fear our power

How come the people who see others as numbers or line items get ahead when they’re obviously the worst among us? Shutting off aid cause Elon is an apartheid nepo baby and he paid the only loser who’d let him be president
Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them.

There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Everyone of them must go. Durbin turning off his voicemails yesterday was the most cowardly thing the Dems did all day. If you can’t handle feedback, don’t be a public servant Dick
So, pertinently:

2026 -

Durbin

2028 -

Schumer
Schatz
Fetterman
Cortez-Mastro

The only way the Dems will get rid of him is if he affects the money coming in. I’d never donate to them anyways cause they’re inept but sign to send a message weakness won’t be tolerated. Shame we can’t recall senators

not to downplay the ugliness of this but this is the equivalent of busywork. they are giving him executive orders to sign so that it feels like he’s doing something.
Insanity — Trump signs an order blaming Biden and DEI for flight dangers

Perfectly stated. Ask people to explain it so they can elaborate on their hate.
Normalizing spelling out what people actually mean when they cite DEI rather than letting them hide behind the safe cover of a euphemism that's been sapped of meaning

No cheating, your last saved celebrity pic is your therapist.

Legendary Man United striker Eric cantona would be a good therapist for me

On a more light hearted note, this was advice given to Southern drivers who don’t see much snow. 🤣🤣🤣

I lived in Virginia during a 3 inch snow apocalypse & schools were shut down for a week because no one knew how to drive in snow and they didn’t have the equipment to salt or plow the roads.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

The only proper response to one of these salutes.
HAPPY ERIC CANTONA DAY!

30 years ago today, Man Utd. star Eric Cantona responded to sieg heiling National Front/British National party supporter Matthew Simmons' racial abuse with a flying kick!

To celebrate, we've done a ltd run of this image as stickers. Want some? DM us for details!

But yeah, tell me how these allegations ruin men’s lives. Any man who supports men like this is a coward, hard stop. I don’t respect you and I know you’re 🤏🏼 down there.
The serial sexual abuser who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy has already appointed a lifetime Supreme Court seat to a man credibly accused of sexual assault, and now he’s appointed a man who has been credibly accused of sexual assault to lead our armed forces.

When you elect a sexual predator he picks his sexual predator friends. Men who abuse women get zero respect from actual dudes. The bar for being a man is disgustingly low and these men can’t even meet that bar. Making a mockery of America with these unqualified white male DEI hires
This is a slap in the face to American women.

Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations.

Our troops deserve better.

To instrumentalize what my sister is saying below: every time someone says DEI say “you mean civil rights?” Every time someone says they are against woke reply “oh so you’re a segregationist!” Words have meaning! Don’t allow that nonsense to stand.
Only saying once on bsky b/c I know it is not entirely useful, but it is totally exhausting that in 2016 some of us said “they’re Nazis,” some of us screamed “they’re segregationists,” and a whole lot of very serious people now posting about them being Nazis and segregationists gaslight us for years
