Corporations have been hiring MAGA-world lawyers with ties to Trump to lobby on their behalf. The latest example? Taylor Farms hiring a former Trump White House official as it deals with a cyclospora investigation. This also comes after it donated $1M to Trump's super PAC. See the problem?

Yes! This is documented! The chronic illness community specifically have discussed the limits of accommodation, or what happens when you don’t “get well soon.”

What to Say If Your Friend Isn’t Going to ‘Get Well Soon’
Not everyone with a chronic or lifelong illness is going to 'get well soon.' One woman explains what to say and how to be there for someone living with a chronic illness that might not get better.

One rule I learned growing up in cult-y pre-Trump evangelicalism: It’s a sin to be angry with God. These morons believe God chose Trump, ergo, it’s somehow a sin to be mad at the mad king. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sadly, can verify from real life: maga-friendly types in (mostly white) small towns near me are frothing at the mouth because “immigrants ruin everything.” Not just red hats. They may not love the president, but they’re lapping up the racist propaganda

1/ This type of government spending is well within my area of expertise, so let me offer my two cents. Long story short, there's a very important and somewhat dangerous way in which this pattern of spending isn't normal, and a one interesting way in which it is very normal. 🧵

The numbers vary from study to study but hundreds of thousands of people have died because of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio illegally disbanding USAID — a body count on par with the first eight years of the Syrian civil war — In just seven months. It’s mass death that is simply unfathomable in scale.
