Farming is hurting. We all are. But Sen Grassley is finally feeling stress. Poor baby. youtube.com/shorts/AKACU...

The NYT liveblog on the autism press conference is a fascinating read -- largely because it's written by health reporters and not political reporters. Look at how direct and appropriately shocked these posts are! www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

Someone in the military ranks might want to mention this to service members. They are being lied to by Trump & Hegseth. They are being ordered by Hegseth and his minions, without any legal review (the JAGs were fired), to commit international crimes. They will be held accountable.

A tad of ageism. At 69 yo, I agree top top-level positions in govt may not be the best place. We should have been mentoring and making room for younger generations. Yet staying home isn't the best option for all. Other pursuits that yield self-fulfillment & community service should always be options

Honestly, the quibbling over this misses the forest for the trees. Whether celibacy is or is not superior to marriage isn't as important as the fact conservatives defile the sacrament of marriage by seeing it as an act of conquest rather than an act of union.

They're positively giddy they've a 'martyr' to their heinous behavior.

Agree. Expanding the court, staggered 18-year term-limits, criminal liability for breach of ethics including lying during confirmation hearings automatically voids any participation as a judge or prosecutor in any jurisdiction. Presidents are limited to no more than 3 total justice confirmations.

Based on what? A drug addict & an ignorant asshole.

As if that matters to the Trump regime.

Add Reuters to my news media shit list.

What will it take for Mehmet Oz to lose his license to practice medicine? It amazes me and undermines all who spend their lives working for truth and ethics!

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.

It's not enough. Sinclair still refuses to carry Kimmel. Strip Sinclair of OTA access to ABC.

Kenvue, the manufacturer of Tylenol, said that “sound science clearly shows that taking acetaminophen does not cause autism.” The company pointed to scientific reviews by multiple government regulators worldwide, including those previously published by the FDA. https://to.pbs.org/4nQ6rUR

I've been trying to write about this:

SCOTUS has made itself illegitimate. Appointed for life, theh must be removed from the high court and reassigned where they can't do anymore harm to the Constitution. Every Trump appointee lied to the Senate.

Returning to ABC unless you live in a Sinclair OTA area. Meaning red America still has to tolerate MAGA censorship.

I’m glad Jimmy’s back. But Brendan Carr still needs to resign. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/j...

I'm frightened at what horrendous treatments he'll put forward. We can't get vaccinated against deadly diseases yet he & that cretin RFK Jr will force "treatments" on the autistic. Remember they accessed all govt files, including disability. And likely insurance files too.

Mkre extortion. It's never about their "values". It's always about the money & control. We look forward to welcoming Kimmel to stations outside of Sinclair's reach. But Disney isnt off the hook yet. Play with monsters and become one.

Don't you know he's the expert in everything.

In the US the most common causes of Hep B are IV drug use and sexual transmission. Every member of Trump's administration should be tested. As should all victims of their sexual abuse. Interesting to hear Trump state kids should wait until they're 12 for sex. 12?! Guilt by projection?

He and Republica s who refuse to remove him will kill millions.

Lying sob. Miller wants to murder people who are mentally ill and physically disabled. Is that the Trumplandia future they really envision?

Coulter Gets "Put In Her Place".....

Agree. But what horrors will you agree to in a trade? Neither Republicans nor Trump can be trusted to uphold a bargain. Particularly, now that he's illegally using a line-item veto.

I have lost all respect for Jeffries. Turns out he's just part of the old guard establishment beholden to corrupt benefactors. We need fighters, he's folding far too often to Trump's demands.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

All the more reason to have him removed.

I can make the following statement because this is what multiple studies have shown: If your child has is on the autism spectrum, it is NOT because you took Acetaminophen while you were pregnant. ACETAMINOPHEN. DOES. NOT. CAUSE. AUTISM. There’s no proven causal link. There is NOT.

I'm not sure of the mechanism as Income taxes, Social Security & Medicare taxes are paid directly to the Feds via IRS.

Here's my 2 cents on the firing late night show hosts - Disney lost around $3.8 billion due to the cancellations from subscribers who were livid at them for firing Jimmy. He's back as of tomorrow. Money talks. What does it say? It says We The People have more power than many might think.

He was a vile person.

Expand the court, impeach & remove at least 5, starting with Thomas (the most corrupt, sexual predator, insurrectionist), Alito (ChristoFascist MAGA), Gorsuch (corrupt & stolen seat), Kavanaugh (sexual predator, swore vengeance against Dems, & corrupt - who paid off his mortgage & golf club 👇🧵 1/2

🎯🎯🎯

Most corrupt administration in our history.

“Tom Homan, Trump’s kidnapping czar, allegedly took $50K in a FBI sting—yet the Trump DOJ shut it down. Corruption isn’t partisan—it’s systemic. If the law bends for cronies, democracy dies. #CorruptionWatch #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw #TrumpCronyism” www.forbes.com/sites/alison...

Rather than go through the whole impeachment process with Trump - for the third time - what say we simply "Rapture" him? Leave his pajamas and dirty diaper on the bed and say "God loved him so much...!"

Not dumb at all. It's a political rally plus religious revival. Taxpayers are undoubtedly paying expenses for all the Federal officials, however, and we shouldn't.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Sen. Chris Murphy: "We are quickly turning into a banana republic. POTUS is employing the full power of the federal government—the FCC, the DOJ—in order to punish, lock up, take down off the air all of his political enemies. This is what happens in Iran, Cuba, and China."

😕 💵

Trump isn't sorry. He never is. He thinks he's infallible and he's just a disgusting excuse of a human. Impeach, remove and imprison for life.

Selective prosecution is an inordinately difficult defense to make. But a finding of inadequate evidence, followed by a firing of the US attorney who made that finding, followed by a presidential command to the Attorney General to prosecute his enemies is the strongest possible footing. Look for it.

Deleted but never gone.. lol

Only because they'll transfer everything to the Great Lakes Naval Base..Mixing his private Army National Guard & US military outside of Chicago's jurisdiction. It would be helpful if IL passes legislation smart to CA's banning of masks (& assault style weapons on IL streets). #DumpTrump et al
