You’re losing when you’re lying — and Trump and Republicans are lying when they say our plan to reopen the government would give benefits to undocumented immigrants. The truth: our plan reopens the government and defuses a health care timebomb REPUBLICANS set on the American people⬇️

🇺🇸 These dedicated public servants risked their careers to deliver an urgent message. 🚨 While the 1st amendment grants them the right to speak on matters of public concern, their protection is not guaranteed under an administration hostile to free speech. Please take the time to listen and boost 🔥

Senate Republicans just voted to shut down the government — blocking our bill to fund it responsibly, protect health care, and stop Trump from getting a blank check for his lawlessness. They’d rather please their Dear Leader than deliver for the American people. Shameful.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country… Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year. And America shrugged and moved on.

If the information in this letter doesn't rattle you to your core, it should. It's literally the stuff of nightmares. Federal workers take an oath to the Constitution and Americans. Scientists take an oath of ethics and integrity, to keep you safe. We are not the enemy. x.com/dr_demetre/s...

They spread the lie for years that public health professionals are enemies. Now, a policeman is dead, and the lives of CDC personnel and their kids were at risk. There'll be "deep concern" and thoughts & prayers. But architects of that lie will celebrate privately because this has been the goal.

Me: *Googles 'overcoming insulin resistance'* Google: "...Physical activity, especially aerobic exercise and strength training" Me: "As opposed to anaerobic exercise? Google, play 'No Air' by Jordan Sparks...'tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air. Can't live, can't breathe with no air'"

Me: "Ok...tell me not to be anxious about stuff. The meds aren't doing their thing." My support system: "Everything is ok. You're ok. Everything will be ok. You're not alone. We love you!" Me: "Try that again. This time, with more feeling. None of my 'feel good' brain receptors bought that."

Forever

Precisely

Can we pretend that nuke bombs in the night skies are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now...

“Science has no passport, no gender, no ethnicity, no political party.” EC President Ursula von der Leyen, announcing a €500M initiative to attract top global talent. In a fractured world, science remains a unifying force – rooted in diversity, driven by curiosity, and shared by all humanity.

So...with our President being a "contender" for Pope....what do we think he'd choose for his papal name?

is he gonna teach the warfighters how to draw a cat eye sharp enough to kill a man? www.cbsnews.com/news/hegseth...

Remember correlation does not equal causation - but if blame is gonna be thrown around, then this is as relevant as whatever BS will come out in September. www.linkedin.com/posts/justin...

Idk who's doing the lying or if they forgot the alligator likes to eat the bigger number, but an additional 2% loss in my 401k compared to yesterday doesn't exactly sound like a "stock surge" to me. What do I know, though? I'm not an economist or a mathematician 🤷‍♀️

It’s not politics , it’s values and ethics

And there it is. Senator Cory Booker makes history-- the longest standing filibuster in US history at 24 hours 19 minutes and counting. Good trouble.

"First they came for..." Please share #laloalcaraz cartoons

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”

Y'all - tell me this is legit! 🤣🤣🤣 Is Isaac Neutron Jimmy's uncle or something??

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social: "When I was flying combat missions over Iraq in 1991, I didn't think there was some snotty nosed teenager in South Africa that was going to call me a traitor."

I mean, what else is there to do?

Breaking News, hot off the presses from your favorite stalker: DOGE now, legally, has been ruled to HAVE to comply with FOIA requests made by American citizens. All you need to do is print out a FOIA request document and mail, fax, or email it to the fuckers... do that. Now.

I’m like 99% sure that mice don’t even have genders.

This one is destined for my (black and white laser) printer and several of my neighbors' mailboxes.

Ofelon...yup, works both ways.

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

ICYMI: After OMB Director Nominee Vought's hearing, I submitted some questions for the record which he is required to answer under oath. While he dodged many of our questions in the hearing and in other responses to QFRs, he used this one to show his true colors.

If you voted for the felon -- if you stayed home or voted third party -- you have helped cancer kill people. Go ahead and tell your friends who have cancer what you did.

Where's the lie?
