I hate him

I hate his fucking face

I hate his fucking voice

I hate his burnt sienna fake tan

I hate his tiny anus-shaped mouth

I just fucking hate him so much but most of all, I hate what he’s done to our country.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Marjorie Taylor Greene on Trump's tariffs: "It's bumpy. I'm talking to major manufacturing companies that are saying...'We're having problems with these tariffs. And now we're having problems, we can't get supplies'...There's problems."

I’m not trying to give @pbs.org ideas for raising money—but I am. I would buy women’s fit T-shirts of all my favorite childhood shows. Reading rainbow, 321 contact, square one, zoobiliee zoo. I feel like two generations will run to donate even more money for shirts with Levar Burton on them…

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas

With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

Nooo… 😭 She is the GREATEST! I have told people that her flawless, heartbreaking scene in “Something’s Gotta Give” is right before mine; & when making my reel I would want to put her scene on, forgetting that I’m not in it! Replayed a million times 😢 She’s so lovely, Jack ADORED her 🥹🕯️ 🕊️ RIP Diane 💔

Trump’s presidency has been defined by the decay of public information sources and dismantling of public health institutions.

So firing the people who produce the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Report certainly tracks.

Donald Trump's war on public health enters a new phase

1) WHY isn't this a bigger story? High food prices were cited time and again as a major 2024 campaign issue?

2) Democrats said said over and over again this was going to happen.

3) Why didn't the MSM take it more seriously, when trump LIED over and over again about bringing food prices down???

Did people actually believe Trump during his campaign, or did they just love the permission he gave them to be racist?

Trump on loop: “They’re stealing your jobs.”

If that were true, why aren’t Americans lining up to take those so-called “stolen” jobs?

Every Trump voter needs to see this.

Per CDC source: At internal leadership meeting this afternoon, it was shared that 1,257 people were RIF'd at CDC. Number may not be final. Apparently, chief of staff was unaware that RIFs were going to occur so not clear who is making decisions. (Short 🧵)
