Hezbollah is now engaged. For those that dont know, its a designated terrorist political movement and its been around since the early 80s. It was established with support from Iran's Revolutionary Guard. Its also financed by drug money. All we have done is open the door to decades of Proxy Wars.

Morning Bluesky.

21% supported Hitler in WW2. 21% supported the Brits in the Revolutionary War. 21% believe There is nothing wrong with the economy and everything is fine. These 21% do not deserve platforming like they are sane, educated and have a good grasp on reality. Thats why we are in the mess we are in.

It’s hard to overstate just how terrible Trump is. He is the worse of us and this young man is the best!

NEW Carl Grillmair, Caltech astrophysicist and research scientist (NASA principal investigator on Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes), shot and killed at his home in California. At the time of his death, he was researching comets and asteroids hazardous to Earth — LA Times

The Illinois Department of Public Health sidestepped the federal government this week by independently joining the WHO’s Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network (GOARN). It is the second state to do so, after California joined the network last month. trib.al/0ecIsxF

No beds. No nurse. No answer on how many people in custody. U.S. Rep. Kelly Morrison details what she saw at Whipple over the weekend:

They will absolutely make it happen themselves if they can't get the people to do it. An ICE agent will get shot on camera, we will be told who he was, but there will be no way to verify that he was the man who got shot on the video due to wearing full gear/mask. Peaceful or not, its coming.

This is Minneapolis. Literally every corner along Lake St. packed with people holding candles, many singing, honoring a person who by all accounts was an absolute gem of a human, whose life was tragically stolen by a fascist, paramilitary occupation force.

these are the lengths to which they will go to shield themselves from accountability

you just don't see language like this in right-wing spaces anymore, quite shocking to see it.

Obviously we should abolish ICE and actually the entire DHS but also I think we haven’t yet begun to reckon with how completely we’re going to have to purge the DOJ, like burn it to the absolute ground bsky.app/profile/atru...

After a West Virginia shelter dog named Dawson escaped from his gated enclosure and then used his teeth to open the front door on Jan. 4, a search began.

ICE: “Have you not learned from the past few days?” Woman: “Learned what? What’s our lesson?” Every domestic violence survivor knows what those words means. The misogyny on display by ICE is terrifying & escalating. There’s no lesson we need to learn. Filming is legal. Murder is not.

Looking to turn a quick profit, private equity firms buy medical facilities and then unload them just a few years later, often leaving devastation in their wake. trib.al/oKce3vj

Medicare will save approximately $12 billion, or 44%, on 15 high-cost medications as a result of the second round of the program’s drug price negotiations, the Trump administration announced. The savings are estimated based on what Medicare spent on the medicines last year.

Last blooms on this Brugmansia, almost time to mulch it up and hope for a mild winter.

I thought DoorDash said that inflation and pricing were down. At least that's what Karoline Leavitt said.

Just more excuses.... Peak GOP is forcing Americans to choose between affordable healthcare or food. Peak DNC is allowing it to happen because they think it'll make a great campaign slogan & protect their billionaire donors. We aren't getting out of this with words anymore, they made it clear.

Nurturing the human microbiome has long been linked with improved health www.theguardian.com/environment/... Just one month of growing plants boosted skin bacteria and the body’s immune response. It was not the act of gardening that was important, but contact with healthy, biodiverse soils

Remember those images in Russia, of folks waiting hours in line to get bread. Well those breadlines are here in America! In cities and towns you are starting to see breadlines! WTF? How did we get here, in America? And how does a president go to the courts demanding for people to starve? End this.
