What did folks think was going to happen when they changed the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War?

Trump took us to war and has no freaking idea how to get us out of it.

Why did you show this? All lies and you didn’t call him out on it!

A reminder to the news media: β€œconflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Guns are the leading cause of death for young people in America β€” this is a five alarm fire and our leaders in Washington have ignored it for too long. Americans are tired of waiting around for Congress to decide that protecting kids matters.

There was a time when I was a full time RN at a hospital that was part of a for profit hospital chain. The insurance that we could access from that hospital wouldn’t approve procedures at that hospital. Crazy. When I first started there in the 1980’s, we had no copay for hospitalization at our hosp

The way that white male podcasters/public figuresβ€”and not only/mostly talking about Ezraβ€” are clearly panicking about their own personal safety in wake of Kirk is so indicative of how proportionally less violence they fear/face every day their whole lives.

And obvs others face more than I. Still.

@danabash.bsky.social when the president is talking nonsense or has obviously forgotten names or facts, call it out IN REAL TIME!

@abcnewsbot.bsky.social @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @nbcnews.com you don’t have to jump into regular programming with β€œbreaking news” every time the president speaks. It can wait until your next broadcast. You know why.

This is why I walked away with no notice 26 years ago. Staffing. I feared getting sued over short staffing.

Not gonna lie, the text messages from the Kirk shooter seem… weird. The grammar in these texts from someone in their early 20s who is talking to their partner about having just done this kind of thing reads more like an older millennial. Idk maybe he always texts like that.

He’s just pulling out the same old hits about turning on the water in LA, people shot in Chicago etc.

Photo passed along from a federal employee from inside the Dept of Labor building, where a giant Orwellian image of Trump's face is now draped outside.

β€˜We are sweating’: Missouri kindergarten vaccination rates fall below immunity threshold In Missouri, the rate of vaccinated kindergarteners stands at 90%.

Ignorance isn’t harmless...it's a public health hazard. Missouri’s kindergarten vaccination rate has dropped to 90%...below the 95% herd immunity threshold. We’re not just vulnerable...we’re sweating. Dumb f*&^ing people.

I was a $1000/ month shopper. Haven’t been since the DEI debacle. I’m spending less overall by shopping elsewhere.

Now that DOJ is charging the guy who threw a Subway sandwich at law enforcement with a felony, I am calling on Subway to introduce a new sandwich for Trump. It should be 3 inches.

I daresay we have declared war with his decision. Y’all needed to stand up to him 5 months ago.

@ryanobles.bsky.social No Kings was about our system of checks & balances. It wasn’t right for you to lead off with it being anti ICE on Today this morning. Talk to people on the ground instead of listening to other media outlets.

And is that his personal account? It says nothing about ABC News on it.
