Checks and balances were put in place for a reason…it’s super crazy that so many ppl are willing to excuse abuses and oversteps of power…folks: we know what happens next…it’s not gonna be pretty.

Greg has been investigating and shouting about this from the roof tops! This is the actual voter suppression / fraud we all should worry about.

It’s almost as if a lot of people didn’t learn that all the outbreaks in fast food chains or recalls from grocery stores and brands weren’t directly tied to Trump deregulating food safety and handling
I don't usually hold the President of the United States directly responsible for the economy. But when the agencies that safeguard our food supply chains and public health are under direct attack and are not allowed to coordinate, THIS is what you get. Donald Trump did this. #TheEGGSellentPresident

Wow, it's almost like Trump is enacting a radical, incredibly unpopular agenda that he never mentioned or explicitly denied during the campaign, and the Democrats and press are so mentally committed to servile accommodationism that they're pretending he has a sweeping mandate for that agenda!
I didn't anticipate the public health freezes. Did anyone? Was anyone in Trump world boasting about this ahead of time, like they did everything else? Stopping government from doing things in our system is much easier than making it do things you want, even things like banning a vaccine.

This year's nominees at the Oscars for Best Animated Feature is honestly not a surprise at all. But, this is still a very solid list and it will be tough to guess at this point who will ultimately be the winner. Still, congrats to all the nominees this year!

The Ukrainian documentary Porcelain War
has been nominated for an Academy Award in the Best Feature Documentary category for the 2025 Oscars.

Porcelain War is the story of three Kharkiv artists
who joined the Ukrainian army while continuing to create porcelain figurines.

In other news, I completely agree with this take. This was not in on so many levels. #oscars slate.com/culture/2025...
It Dominated the Oscar Nominations. It’s One of the Worst Movies of the Year.
Emilia Pérez is not a good movie.

Massive win for Prince Harry over UK Murdoch rag The Sun in the long-running legal battle. Sun owner News Group Newspapers will pay “substantial damages” and offers a “full and unequivocal apology for intrusion”.

He is the law and order president but pardons a drug dealer and someone who ordered 5 murders through his Silk Road site?
President Trump granted a pardon to Ross Ulbricht, the creator of the Silk Road drug marketplace.

Ulbricht was serving a life sentence for creating a site in a shady corner of the internet to sell heroin, cocaine and other illicit substances.

This is wild
Now is a great time to read WIRED magazine’s 2015 feature story, “The Untold Story of Silk Road.”

There were good reasons why Ross Ulbricht was serving a double life sentence.

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class. "In English, a double negative is a positive. In some languages, like Russian, a double negative is still a negative. But, there is no language wherein a double positive can be a negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
