This isn’t just about gas prices. Anything with plastic will not exist. Medical equipment seems to be an impactful one. More below.

There has been virtually ZERO National news coverage of the unprecedented “non hurricane” that’s been storming our islands for over a week! Parts of Maui & Oahu are under still-running red water. Streets have crumbled & fallen into sink holes. We have another 3-4 days before it MAY be over. YOUTUBE

I have to keep doing a reset on prices while in Monteral. Something in Canadian dollars will be so affordable, and yes, it is if you consider there isn’t a tariff baked in.

“The ICE warehouse jail in Merrimack is not opening. For the people who would have been detained there and their loved ones, this is a real win. It also proves something larger: detention expansion is not inevitable. Everyday people can stop these facilities.” afsc.org/news/how-sma...

Maybe the US will be comfortable w/ no disruption for a while, but it will happen. What’s happening in Europe will occur here. Long haul flights will be scarce, fertilizer costs rising, diagnostic tests requiring helium will not be available, Rx drugs and precursors made elsewhere will be scarce.

I have nothing but snark left when reading the news. There’s just no way to cope with how utterly astounding stupid it all is right now while also trying to keep my inner terror at bay because it will get *that* bad soon.

Republicans claim they’re standing up for animal welfare, but it's just another excuse for their bill that would allow immigrants to be deported without a conviction. This is absurd legislation. If Republicans cared about animal cruelty, they should look at Kristi Noem.

The decision by Judge Brian Murphy today in AAP vs. Kennedy allows RFK Jr.’s dangerous handpicked ACIP members to meet, but they are not permitted to vote on anything. They have been defanged for now, as they cannot change vaccine policy. This is great news.

DON’T LET THE BANNER THROW YOU OFF This press conference was wild. The kind that makes you sit up and realize what they are really trying to do. This is not the “Save America Act”. It’s a backdoor attempt to make voting harder for millions of people. #SaveActIsPayToVote 1/2

I’m sure by now many of you have heard that RFK Jr.’s vaccine advisory board has “leaked” a report claiming that there is a chronic condition, similar to LongCOVID, that is caused by the COVID19 vaccine. I wanted to take some time with it before I posted, and now I have, so here comes a thread.

From using parliamentary maneuvers to strangle debate, to killing dozens of bills without even holding votes, last week NH House Republicans showed the people of NH what intentional mismanagement combined with extremism and cruelty looks like. #NHPolitics www.davidmeuse4nh.com/updates1/202...

Yemen’s Houthis have announced they’ll be joining the war in support of Iran shortly. Analysts expect them to shut down another strait, Bab El-Mandeb, which will close the Suez Canal. The global economy hangs by a thread.

🚨 3 DAYS 🚨 Three days. Every conversation counts now. Phone bank, knock doors, or join our volunteer Discord at the link in my bio.

56/ If you are waking up to news of Iran closing Hormuz. Military experts have been studying Iran's capabilities for decades. Get yourself some coffee. Read this 2008 paper from Prof Talmadge. The Iranians never did it until they were existentially threatened by US & Israel bsky.app/profile/hims...

Our actions as a country are taking the global economy down. We may see higher gas prices but many other countries will not be able to produce crops this season. Which will then impact us at some point. There is no escaping the destruction long term.

I learned about a brilliant project yesterday to support British Sign Language (BSL) users, creating new signs for scientific terms in chemistry, oceanography, data science & more. And they're fabulously descriptive. Do have a look and share! www.ssc.education.ed.ac.uk/BSL/index.ht...

Today I want to tell you about my favorite sandwich, where to get it, and some other very important information you might not have heard before.

Town meeting night. Best darn small democracy anywhere! Stay tuned, there’ll be some bangers as people vouce their concerns about well, anything.

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

Don’t just read US MSM sources to know what is happening. Sources outside the US have good info and perspective on this war that the US news channels won’t cover.

Ahhh, Maine Red Hots.

“The senior DHS official disputed the White House explanation: ‘The three [agencies] were going to release a joint intelligence statement that would elevate the threat level and start addressing the Iranian threat on American soil.' ‘The White House stopped it…”

I fixed a big hole in my sweater band today. Not perfect but I can now wear this. Please clap.

FIRE RFK JR

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

At this point, if you haven’t already, you should add non-western english (assuming that other languages may not be a strong suit) language news feeds to your reading rotation. The Iran-Israel war is being covered more and in a different light than the MSM in western countries. Be informed.

Financial Times: the idiots in the Trump admin forgot to refill our Strategic Petroleum Reserve before launching a war in the Middle East where most of the oil is. So now our reserves are depleted Pres Biden purchased 200 mill barrels of oil at a discount for our reserves. So where did that oil go?

Everybody’s got their reasons for despising Markwayne Mullin and mine is him screaming at the dignified and brilliant former CDC Director Susan Monarez at a hearing. He lied about a nonexistent recording and tried to bully her into submission. She was a locus of zen. He lost his damned mind.

Go fuck yourselves first, MAGA. Then go straight to hell. No one wants you. You'd vote for him again, like you did the last three times... Once you figured out a good excuse for his shitty existence. You're just unable to find any right now, Give it a minute. Wait out in the nine circles of Hell.

When the army generals hear we are going to war without Congress approval and they do it, is going to be the same thing when he unleashes that same military on Americans

This isn’t border enforcement — it’s the quiet construction of an armed police state: weapons stockpiled, camps expanded, speech criminalized, due process erased. History has a name for governments that do this, and it never ends with freedom.

My op-ed about how the free staters are systematically dismantling our state and local governments. Please read and share. #NHPolitics

The amount of joy and positivity in the U.K. this morning is wonderful. People voted for community, for inclusion, for collectivism and togetherness. This election has been a complete rejection of division, othering and nasty politics

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media. Off the top of my head: www.thehandbasket.co 404media.co www.garbageday.email Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

The must be some irony to a job posting on linkedin that is for a job recruiting site who’s motto is ‘no fake jobs just real postings’. So the linked in posting wasn’t for a job, it was, a redirect to another head hunting site? Please make it makes sense. Also job searching rn is hard.

I've got a couple of friends running for Congress right now — Fred is one of them. Please take a moment to learn more about him and donate to his campaign. 💙

Congrats to Dr. Ozturk! www.wbur.org/news/2026/02...

I need to address this immediately, because I am WAY too Minnesotan to ever claim credit for this. I built a thing to point the fire hose of people's generosity in the right direction. That's it. I am thankful for the piece, because hopefully it means people will donate more money.

The conditions are worsening

A brand with attitude? This coulddo @neorsd.org

If true, this is extremely problematic. 📌 Talarico copied McMorrow’s website and forgot to delete Michigan

Seems relevant after that WH press conference today. How do they stand on stage and directly state the opposite of reality without cracking up?

Good news today. The Supreme Court has struck down many of Trump's tariffs. Sadly, this President is absolutely dedicated to making you pay these taxes. He's going to try other ways to keep them in place. I will continue voting to block Trump's reckless tariffs in the Senate.

We are building up a website to keep people updated about the Merrimack NH Detention center. We hope to include updates, protest information, and resources. NoICENH.com

Dancers tell stories amazingly that are of the moment. Welcome to resistance art, the need of the moment is being met.

This just gets worse.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Rachel Maddox exposed the Republican governor of New Hampshire for working with ICE for a detention center that people of New Hampshire are totally against. youtu.be/0WdqphevyUY?...
