I hope they know that if they name any ship after Trump, it will always be known as “USS Bone Spurs”

Brutal.
A WHOLE CIVILIZATION
WILL DIE TONIGHT
My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools.
Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's
"keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's
"we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight."
It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before.
"It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time.
A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead.

By declassifying nurses as professionals, it means they are not subject to state laws licensing professionals. Who benefits? The buig medical establishments who can now hire anyone to care for us and our families. (And who also gave big money to Trump. )

Yesterday Miami Congresswoman Maria Salazar refused to condemn Trump’s degradation of women. Instead she called him “picturesque“ defined as “visually attractive, especially in a quaint or pretty style”. I’m pretty sure she does not know the definition of that word. A better one is “grotesque”.

When the Trumps and their low class followers finally leave the White House, the premises will be so soiled that a regular house-cleaning will not be enough. May need something like this to sanitize the area:

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.
