Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"

Only criminals do this shit
Mockler: As much as the Trump admin tries to act like it's different from prior Republican administrations, they're doing the same thing. They cut taxes for the richest, they cut benefits for the poorest, and then they go to war for either regime change or for oil.
I’ve been gone for a while, mental health and all that jazz.
1) Gwen Stefani is a capitalist phony
2) Katy Perry and Trudeau are capitalist phonies
3) celebrities are not going to rescue you from capitalist greed- they are direct beneficiaries of status quo
And FUCK DONALD TRUMP
THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST
Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.
Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.
🧵
Draft planning documents show the scheme is ambitious: ICE wants a contractor capable of staffing the centers around the clock, constantly processing cases on tight deadlines, and supplying the agency with subscription-based surveillance software.
United States immigration authorities are moving to dramatically expand their social media surveillance, with plans to hire nearly 30 contractors to sift through posts, photos, and messages to target people for deportation.
Wood: 3 minutes of singing about Travis Kelce’s dick.
I’m sensing a theme
Those responsible for compiling the jobs report don’t have jobs anymore, hence there will be no jobs report this month.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Why can’t I stumble upon one of these “mediocrity to position of great influence” pipelines?
so the US government just forced a tech company to delete an app it doesn’t like, which is totally normal stuff

Lavender scare is back.
Federal employees do not lose basic 1st Amendment protections. If you can be targeted for your expression, no one is safe. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/k...
Remember that this is what the Trump-Republican big, ugly bill was all about. It's Robin Hood in reverse.
Why would any Democrat vote for a continuing resolution that greenlights this regime's cruelty?
THE PURGE
Polls show that Project 2025 didn’t resonate. Voters thought it wasn’t real. Well, now we’re living it and it’s already 47% implemented after only 9 months.
Trump’s shutdown is a shortcut: gut the federal workforce, fire career experts, replace them with loyalists. Laid out in P2025.
🧵
It’s great that companies start out like, “We have a fun new app where we deliver fresh fruit to your door” and then ten years later, “NEW: FRUITMAIL DEVELOPING AUTONOMOUS SWARMING EXPLOSIVE RECTAL DRONES DESIGNED TO HUNT DOWN THISE WHO WERE MEAN TO THE PRESIDENT KING SO AS TO EXPLODE THEM RECTALLY”
As if irony isn’t already dead, the Hatch Act violation on the DOJ website, which blames Democrats for the shutdown, appears on the page advising DOJ employees they are subject to the Hatch Act. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-note-abo...
Last year, CNN ran a “fact check” of Kamala HQ that claimed we were lying for saying Trump’s plan is Project 2025.
Now Trump is outright admitting it’s his plan.
Legacy media failed the country.
The compact:

The trend of democracy since 1951, of course they’re fantasizing about those being the good old days
First they shut down the government. Then they tampered with federal workers’ emails to shift the blame. This is corruption in broad daylight.
BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.
Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.
If you're a scientist or researcher sharing your work online, here are some resources to help you manage the risks of being public. socialmedialab.ca/km-compass/
Pro Tip: Share them with your communications office and encourage them to form a rapid response team, with a plan of action in place.
If you live in Illinois, we need your help.
This will take less than five minutes and will truly pressure your local elected officials to stand with the people rather than ICE.
"One clinical psychologist [said] he considers Trump such a 'classic' pathological narcissist that he is actually 'archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example' of the characteristics of the disorder he displays."
In speeches, Vought spoke of “demoralizing federal workers to the point that they don’t want to do their jobs.”
“.. we want them to not want to go .. because they are.. viewed as the villains,” he said. “We want to put them in trauma.”
