Trump's four-prong plan of petrifying our population, provoking our partners, protecting pedophiles, and personally profiteering, is playing poorly - people are pissed. I'm feeling a behavioral change now. Organized outrage - not around policy or partisanship, but around reality. Against the lies.

Republicans insisting the Clintons testify about what’s in the Epstein Files instead of just releasing the Epstein Files is peak idiocy.

We are now debating whether the Israeli policy of starving civilians in Gaza is killing enough people to classify as genocide? Really! That’s where we are now?

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

Pope Leo XIV's grandparents were 7th Ward Creoles

The newly elected pontiff, born in Chicago, has ancestral ties to the city’s historic Seventh Ward, according to genealogists at The Historic New Orleans Collection.

Trump’s “Pope image” wasn’t just trolling—though it certainly was that. It was also a display of narcissistic power. A message: I can mock your faith, and you’ll still serve me. He’s made his disdain for Christians clear over the years.

Today I saw an AI generated answer to a question about the Pope that failed to grasp the nuances of the issue and was totally wrong. Color me shocked.

The Lithuanian president showed up to honor dead American soldiers as their remains departed his country. The American president did not show up to receive their remains as they arrived in the US. He had a golf tournament to get to.

It is legal to criticize the president. It is legal to criticize the president's actions. It is legal to criticize the president's advisors. It is legal and patriotic and the blood of a healthy society to hold those in power accountable, and even to mock them. Remember it.

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

@elonmusk
We spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper.

Could gone to some great parties.

Did that instead.

U.S. policy was to help bring an end to apartheid and establish a nonracial, democratic government. In response to this policy and the Act, USAID/South Africa was responsible for financing projects that apartheid victims viewed as critical in promoting social, political, and economic change through peaceful means.

The mission enabled community consultation and ensured that the United States did not impose foreign-defined solutions to local problems. USAID created projects and activities to respond to the priorities of the black community and its leaders, maximized black participation and leadership, and ensured activities had a linkage to the general objectives of U.S. policy.

First-year funding for the program was $25 million, which was raised to $50 million the second year. The main project areas were community outreach and leadership development to redress the repression of black-led institutions; educational support and training to address the educational crisis in South Africa; black private enterprise development to combat the inhibiting effects of apartheid–induced discrimination in private enterprise; university grants to help create a new generation of economic and political leaders; human rights; legal assistance; labor union training; and health and nutrition

@weissmann11.bsky.social I can, unfortunately, easily imagine this SCt saying the constitution gives POTUS authority to hire or fire anyone in the Executive Br and anything that limits that authority, such as The Civil Service Reform Act, is unconstitutional. And that is the end of the Civil Service

Fed source to me: “It’s like a bank heist and the bank is America. Not really being hyperbolic to say control of those systems would allow an extremely fast collapse of the economy. Imagine it’s a plumbing system and someone takes a sledgehammer to the central pipe.”
