RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome is now a pathology."

Natalie (prev “NanouTheNomad”) @drnataliestahl.bsky.social · 20h

This is a very fair rule

Erin "Skeleton Factory" Ryan @eringloriaryan.bsky.social · 20h

Hey ladies, as a general rule if somebody can't describe what the placenta does, you should not be taking any pregnancy-related health advice from them.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

Was telling my mom about $TRUMP today (though I still struggle to understand & explain cryptocurrency!) and we did the math that if we made $500K/year it would take us 10,000 years to earn $5 billion which is… a long time.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I felt so acutely aware of this during the first year of the Biden administration. And so grateful. Was so blissfully naive, imagining that we’d dodged a bullet, and sustained our Republic.

Colette Delawalla @cdelawalla.bsky.social · 3d

I remember when I used to go DAYS—WEEKS EVEN—without thinking about the President of the United States because I wasn’t worried about him starting a civil or world war, making a gestapo police force, or ripping our constitution to shreds.

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.

The image is an X post by Acyn (@Acyn
) from 13 hours ago, quoting Pritzker: "He's saying that Chicago is a war zone. None of that is true. They're just making this up. And then what do they do? They fire tear gas and smoke grenades, and they make it look like it's a war zone." The post includes a screenshot from CNN's "State of the Union" showing two individuals discussing, with a chyron indicating DHS officers fired at a driver who rammed their vehicle, later determined to be someone trying to storm the Presidential Palace, as the South Caucasus Coalition.

Ah. My 10th grade English teacher went on an abrupt leave when we were almost done reading it, then we somehow convinced a series of substitutes to start over, so we read it for like 3 months, and it is thus the only Shakespeare I vaguely remember 🙃

I do not care how many pushups the Secretary of Defense can do, I prefer that they understand & believe in the Constitution, and have studied history, and are invested in minimizing the risks of genocide and nuclear war, and it’s cool with me if pushups don’t come with that.

In eighth grade I chose “burning flag in protest should be legal” as an oration topic, and it’s one of the earliest moments I recall recognizing my “left leaning” politics.

In retrospect, possible I owed my strong opinion to “The American President” bc we had it on VHS and I really enjoyed it.
