Vicious authoritarianism built on a pretext of shameless lies under the cover of scolding Christianity.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Yes, it's weird that Peter Thiel can't stop talking up the Antichrist.

But look on the bright side—he's also the guy who:

-Gave @jd-vance-1.bsky.social his first VC job
-Funded Vance's firm
-Bought his Senate seat
-Got him the VP slot

Have a nice day!

Trump takes corruption to a new level—pocketing a $400M jet from Qatar, planning a $5.5B Trump-branded resort in Doha, and greenlighting a Qatari airbase in Idaho in return.

Peter Thiel and Musk have also taken large sums from Qatar.

Clearly, money matters more than this country.

The average house closing involves signing a stack of documents 1-2 inches thick. It's rarely the only one on the closing attorney's calendar and, so tends to be rushed.

An overlooked or mistaken checkbox is not a crime. If it is, they're going to have to built a LOT more prisons.
