The president IS an idiot. He doesn’t understand how the military works, how the ECONOMY works, how his body works (simplified version!) or how the internet in his SmartPhone works. So how can he understand how
the COUNTRY works?

Oooo…maybe he’s the one who got the *DumbPhone*???

It’s like at the beginning of the Covid Pandemic & Trump wanted to stop testing so much bc if you didn’t see so much COVID it must be going away, right?
OMG
BRAINS of an EARTHWORM🪱 🪱

This is how the Trump administration roots out waste and fraud: By defunding the people who identify actual waste and fraud.

Trump administration moves to defund inspector general watchdog group

The decision marks the latest example of the administration’s push to limit government oversight activities.

I suppose at this point I have somewhat of an advantage in that I’m retired, spend much of my day reading bc I have ALWAYS been a bookworm
I’m obsessive about MANY topics having to do w medicine, nursing, anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, & ANY topic that shoots off…

Tylenol doesn’t cause autism either, no matter WHAT RFKJr
& Trump **BLOVIATE**about
NO new proof presented at any medical or scientific conferences
NOTHING NEW written in journals
NO new proof ANYWHERE in the world

The *Tylenol/autism* story IS keeping Epstein’s name out of current news cycle

Trump makes up EVERYTHING

Керрі Світ🇺🇦🇨🇦🇩🇰🇪🇺 @carriesweet.bsky.social · 20d

He just made that up, didn't he?

The Amish Don't Get Autism?

Anti-vaccine advocates have long used the Amish as evidence that vaccines cause autism, a conclusion based on two demonstrably false claims.

Trump likes to play *pretend*
This time he pretended he was a doctor, with his friend Bobby also pretending to be a doctor or scientist or something like that standing behind him
whispering his lines to him…

This is SO WELL SAID!
Thank you for making clear & succinct the long & convoluted & jumbled up mess of thoughts I had going on in my brain‼️

I read this article but I must disagree with a city listed among America’s Most Cultured Cities…AUSTIN.
This is in Texas, the STATE where I live, & is one of the most HORRIBLE STATES to live in.

Democrats now have a huge opening to go on the offensive. Between the RFK vaccine disaster, the Homan bribe, Trump's nakedly corrupt DM to Bondi, and Brendan Carr breaking the law, they should turn on the firehose. As should the press.

Doomers will be blocked. TY for your attention to this matter.

I’m so sorry…I fx 3 vertebrae 1 yr after I retired from nursing. OMG & I thought getting bitten by a cottonmouth snake was painful…which one(s) did you break? Do you have adequate pain relief? If not TELL YOUR DOC! Fortunately my Doc has been wonderful. I’ll have pain forever but I can deal with it

The Gothard cult…oooo isn’t that like the Duggars & the Quiverfull thing?
As far as progressive places to worship…what about a nice Episcopal Church? They were among the 1st Christian Churches to openly Ordain women to the priesthood…

I have a feeling you are a true follower of Christ, footsteps & all.

Ellen Prewett @bananadog123.bsky.social · 26d

Do you go to a particular church or do you *just* want to be known as a person following in the footsteps of Jesus which as a Jew who has studied Christianity I see most of today’s evangelicals like the Speaker of the House DO NOT DO. Only a few true Christians actually follow in Christ’s footsteps…

The system has been fucked for a LOOOONG TIME!!!
Take, for instance, Federal Income Tax.
As an RN, SAY the last year I made 50,000/ mo, Jeff Bezos makes 7.9 million an HOUR…=
1 billion, 280 million a month.

I know I was in the 37% tax bracket…so why aren’t all the fucking BILLIONAIRES there TOO?

Social Security Works @socialsecurityworks.org · 28d

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income.

A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income.

Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

I have been fascinated by true crime all my adult life. I just finished reading your article about Israel Keyes. That name is way too familiar…
And at age 77, & having grown up in LA I had NEVER heard of a sneaker wave!! NEVER!
Had to look it up‼️
Don’t know what I’d do w/out my phone/mini computer‼️

Well, in my opinion anyway!
For an American Jew I have some pretty Left Wing views on how Israel (Netanyahu) is (badly, INHUMANELY) treating the Palestinians
But then, I’ve been very left leaning all my adult life
