Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

I would like to see a study of children classified as "gifted." My best educated guess is that a large majority of the children and their parents are vaccinated and that the mother probably took acetaminophen during the pregnancy. I guess that wouldn't fit the narrative, though. 🙄

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Get on with it already! If he makes it to heaven, he’ll be expelled at the gates. So I’m not worried about that. But get him out of the White House before all is lost. 😡

STEPHANOPOULOS: Trump said Pritzker should be in jail. Do you think he has committed a crime?

VANCE: I think Pritzker has certainly failed to keep the people of Illinois safe

S: It's a yes or no question

V: I certainly think he has violated his fundamental oath. That seems pretty criminal to me

We've always had MAGAs.

They were called Tories during the Revolutionary War and Confederates during the Civil War.

My daughter’s best friend. She was like a daughter to us. Really struggling. This is worse than when we lost my husband’s mom. Because she was so young. 😭

BeckyVee @beckyvee.bsky.social · 4d

God how we loved her 💔

What strength for this woman to stay calm enough to share her name & info. May she be home soon.

I booked a photo session tonight bc I have very few pictures of my family together, but while I’m smiling & holding my children, I know I will hear this mother’s screams.

I don’t want my tax dollars supporting ICE agents dragging parents away from car line. And most moms in the US agree with me.

They don't want COVID numbers.

They don't want jobs numbers.

They don't want starving Americans numbers.

The Trump admin canceled an annual report on hunger & food insecurity in America.

This comes AFTER they made historic cuts to food stamps.

They don’t want the public to know how much worse off American families are because of their policies
