Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

Ken CHESEBRO, an architect of Trump's bid to remain in power despite losing the 2020 election, has been suspended from practicing law in D.C. (he'd already been disbarred/suspended in several states) storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If only we’d known in 2015 that we could just turn off the escalator.

Interesting given 1400 detainees that were held at the Florida concentration camp are missing.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

"Well, there's your problem..." #DonaldTrump #Escalator

Family separation is back under Trump. Just CNN alone found more than 100 American children left stranded after ICE took their parents. Here’s just one story… Meet Isaac

A federal judge, Rita F. Lin, has ordered the National Institutes of Health to release hundreds of millions of dollars in research funding that had been frozen at the University of California, Los Angeles. Thank you, Judge Lin!

This person has the ear of the president

I’m still not watching anything on abc. 🤨

#BREAKING: Over dissents from Justices Sotomayor, Kagan & Jackson, #SCOTUS grants a stay in the Slaughter case (allowing President Trump to remove the last Dem member of the FTC), *and* grants certiorari "before judgment" to decide whether to formally overrule its 1935 ruling in Humphrey's Executor.

SCOTUS is openly considering whether to overturn Humphrey’s Executor (1935). If they do, presidents (starting with Trump) could remove independent agency heads at will. That would collapse nearly a century of precedent keeping regulatory agencies independent of raw presidential politics.

The biggest problem we face—give him an inch and he takes miles. He wants control over independent agencies, with no insulation from his influence. No regulatory or enforcement oversight functions. SCOTUS overturning this decision would be dismantling of oversight under law and the Constitution.

🚨 HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 For the next month, we're doing an experiment: live-streaming as a core campaign strategy. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, I'll be streaming with guests, games, and (of course) my cat, Heater. And if this works, we'll keep doing it. Join us tomorrow, 7 PM CT.

Hours after we sent a letter signed by over 450 artists and 40K others defending free speech, ABC announced Jimmy Kimmel will return to air. Other companies should heed this warning: We the people are watching.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

“In the corridors of the Estonian foreign ministry last week, I saw a large reproduction of the vote tally from last February’s UN debate on Ukraine, in which the US voted with the Russians. The message seemed clear. Don’t assume that Trump’s America is on our side.”

Fuck ICE. Cowardly bastards.

OH MY FUCKING GOD 😫

If any of you are unfortunate enough to have Sinclair in your area, take a moment to call them up and/or send them an email and tell them what you think about this.

Had no idea JD Vance changed his name three times before he was 39. Pretty weird if you ask me. apnews.com/article/elec...

The word “autism” was first used to describe behavioral differences in children in 1911 but autism has been documented using available records going back to the 1700s (definitively) and further. Acetaminophen (Tylenol, paracetamol) was discovered in 1878 and first sold in the United States in 1950.

I'm sorry to post this so sooner after the timeline cleanse. But wtf. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/h...

Many autistic kids have suffered from Vitamin B toxicity. Some have died from chelation and hyperbaric treatments. The amount of voodoo in the autism parenting world extends far beyond rejection of vaccines and there are many charlatans like these cashing in on it.

ICYMI: Trump posted a vile comment saying the Congresswoman married her brother and called her scum. This is madness. I’m standing behind Ilhan Omar.

FFS!

I’ll write it on toilet paper and post it on a notice board in my kitchen if I have to… But I’m going to keep publishing scientific research… and so should everyone that is out there investigating our universe… and helping us hold those in power accountable for wrecking it.

Think Canada would never go the way of America? www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

What could possibly go wrong? 🧪

We don't actually have to make every type of dystopian fiction into fact all at once you know.

“limiting face coverings and opening officers up to prosecution would most likely hurt recruitment and drive officers from the state” So nobody will want to be a police officer if they’re not allowed to commit crimes with impunity?

The claim that vaccines cause autism also came from a fraudulent paper that was later retracted. And we are still dealing with the repercussions. These people don’t believe in science.

"Drinking water from plastic bottles is fine in an emergency, but it is not something that should be used in daily life" www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Gavin Newsom: "I'll be signing a bill, the first in the nation, saying enough to ICE, unmask. What are you afraid of? You're going to go out and you're going to do enforcement? Provide an ID.Tell us what agency you represent."

This is quite the post. 1. He unambiguously directs his AG to go after those who investigated him for his crimes 2. He admits being influenced by online chatter He is mob bossing out in the open, because he knows he has corrupted every federal law enforcement agency into submission.

BREAKING: Canada, the U.K. and Australia recognize a Palestinian state despite opposition from the U.S. and Israel.

🚨🚨🚨 7 point plan to save democracy and what YOU can do to help today. I have heard very little meaningful action coming from leadership and I don’t know if this is “it,” but this sounds promising. Just released on IG. Let’s do it!

Josh Shapiro: "I was on a Spanish language radio program in the Allentown area and the host said something really chilling to me -- that he now has to think about what topics he's going to discuss because he's fearful he might offend federal regulators of the president."

The clock is ticking.
