Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth quoted a violent and fictional Bible passage nearly word-for-word from Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction in his Wednesday night worship service at the Pentagon.

I still can’t believe that Vance the fraud said that.

yes, yes we do.

After Trump's latest genocidal utterances, I'm posting this again from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

Just in case folks miss this due to the block

Pfizer has ended its large Phase III Trial of an updated COVID19 vaccine. They were not able to enroll enough people to meet their goal. A major problem is the FDA’s wholly unreasonable demand that people with chronic conditions, who benefit most from the vaccine, not be allowed to participate.

Ghana’s President John Mahama warned at the UN that erasing Black history in the U.S. risks global consequences as nations move to recognize slavery as a grave crime against humanity. Efforts to reshape museums, school curriculum, and narratives tied to slavery and racism only deepen the harm.

Agreed. Enough with oligarchs deciding elections.

I think men need to read every single article about rapists. Every single file about Epstein. Women (and some men) have to live it. Don't turn away. The complicity of systems and power is just as dangerous as the abusers. Learn about complicity. #chavez Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/19/u...

Watch this and remember who caused it. TSA agents keeping airports safe are sleeping in their cars because gas costs too much and paychecks are stalled. Democrats tried to fund TSA. Republicans blocked it. #FundDHSFreezeICE

Blackmailing a less wealthy country? Aren't we charming.

Trump admin wants Save Act to create more hurdles to voting. They want to gatekeep your ability to vote by making it harder to vote. They are making it harder to use your voice. For the party of "deregulation" they want to regulate your voting rights. ##SaveActIsPayToVote

These people are creepy, childish and just weird as shit and we should say it all the time.

Truly in our authoritarian era.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

This moment from Feb 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him instead.

Remember how in the Grinch he makes sure to steal every single thing from the living room including the last speck of crumb from the mouse? Every single tiny piece of this administration is awful and abusive, not just the big pieces. The article is worse than the headline people.com/new-dime-coi...
