Once upon a time, Trump tariffed India an extra 25% because they were buying Russian oil.

This arbitrary change in terminology—which Trump and other members of his regime have done before—is a well-worn tactic for authoritarians. It may seem farcical, but that’s actually the point: it’s an intentional farce used to test the subservience of his supporters and the resolve of his enemies.

So she is no longer Jane Doe? I was wondering how long it would take the deplorables to know her identity and start the harassment.

This hit home. My PhD and postdoc PIs were both awful humans. My PhD PI drove one of the postdocs in the lab to a mental breakdown. He said he had to re-read his PhD thesis to feel worthy again. I quit science and research after my first 2 years of postdocing.

I remember the senate Q&A clearly. While Dr. Ford consulted with her lawyer before answering some questions, her reply "100%" (to the Q "Are you sure it was Kavanaugh?") was instant, forceful, and with zero hesitation.

My 16-yr old is a painter who's started a program where he teaches art to unhoused kids on the weekends. He's hoping to expand this program to other family shelters across the city. He's funding this effort by selling some of his own pieces. Check them out👇 Shipping is free 🙂 theauthenticart.com

"Joel" sent this vid of farm workers harvesting tomatoes in Gilroy CA. They earn 93¢/25lb bucket. Pickers carry two buckets as that allows them to work quicker. Walking over the uneven terrain with this heavy weight puts a lot of strain on their body. #WeFeedYou

Collins has voted against Trump only when it wasn't the deciding vote to pass or fail the bill. In other words, no - she has not been a road block for the Trump Regime's agenda.

i’ve noticed recently that when i’m having an in-person conversation, i feel this internal pressure to make my point faster/a perception that the other person is growing impatient. and i realized it’s because we’re so used to getting info in quick clips now that a longer explanation feels foreign.

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

It was 90° at 12:40 p.m. in Bakersfield. Farm workers were hard at work harvesting table grapes. They tell us it's even hotter under the vines where the air doesn't move. The grape season in Bakersfield begins in mid June and can extend up until early December. #WeFeedYou

Which expert? Where's the link to the study? Is there evidence? Can it be unequivocally proven in court? If not, too bad. Yes, I have my doubts about Trump winning all battleground states with margins just outside automatic recount limits. But if it can't be proven, we just sound like Trump in 2020.
