This is hurtful, petty & sinister. JFK Jr./Trump cut AAP funds for autism and fetal alcohol work because they criticized JFK. MAHA supporters of JFK Jr. are undermining the health of our children and backing the thinking that led to the holocaust: eugenics
American Academy of Pediatrics loses government funding after criticizing RFK Jr
Cuts, which affect projects focused on issues including early identification of autism, made without prior notice to AAP

Great private public collaboration! Great news for our Green Transition, especially given the embrace by Republican leaders.
A huge cache of critical minerals found in Utah may be the largest in the US — Grist
A Utah company says it has unearthed a massive deposit of minerals crucial for building electric vehicles, semiconductors, satellites, magnets, and more.

Here, here to nationalizing Star Link. What madness to allow any individual, let alone a juvenile billionaire, control a key element of our military. Musk already screwed Ukrainian fighters once by cutting their links. Not madness. Inevitable with our Military Industrial Oligarchy.
We will not be done until tesla is no more.
Next up..... Star Link. The US needs to confiscate Star Link. The American people paid for it. We need to own it and we need to operate it. Musk needs to go ahead and move to Mars..... or Argentina. He is not welcome here anymore.

Feelin' it. The best MAGA court money can buy, fit for a mad King. DOGE Demolition to socialize costs and privatize profits. ICE goons snatching citizens. Abandoning Ukraine. War crime snuff films. China leaving us in the dust of the green revolution. A "tariffic" Holiday Season. Feelin' it already
Based on the rapid pace of Trump’s mental decline, which only exacerbates his malignant narcissism, repulsive behavior, megalomania, and habitual lying, 2026 is going to be a rough year.

Winning elections takes so much more than resisting Donald Trump. It’s about giving people hope that their better days are ahead of them.

That’s why we won big this year, and we’re keeping our foot on the gas into 2026.

Maybe I get Trump’s attacks on Ilhan Omar. She came on a rare Einstein visa, had an anchor baby & has no public service record since 2006.

Wait. That’s Melania.

Ilhan Omar became a citizen in 2000 after 8 years of vetting and has decades of public service fighting for working people and democracy.

Whitehouse is awesome. He has always had the goods on the real elites ripping us off, plundering and shredding our democracy
Whitehouse: Not only were the founders extremely interested in checks and balances but they were desperately concerned about corruption.

This Court has consistently taken the side of corruption against every device Congress has created to fight political corruption.

Books about “Asian wife sharing” that included detailed descriptions of orgies and scenes involving “ladyboys.”

That’s what our reporter discovered on a Goodreads page tied to the email address of a top Pentagon official. What came next was even wilder.
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

Republicans gave $132 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% in 2027.

With that money, we could have extended ACA tax credits for over 20 million people next year and still have $100 billion left over.

Exactly right. State leaders need to pass legislation that will indemnify their citizens when they make their IRS payments "to the care of" these state escrow accounts.
Then Indiana needs to put all money earmarked for federal taxes into an escrow account and withhold it. All states who don’t support fascism should be doing this. The red states will rot. (Apologies to blue dots in those red states.)

Sorry for using comics and art to vent and cope with the world changing around me. I will return to drawing whimsical and silly frog wizards and adventures.

BIG NEWS: A federal grand jury has AGAIN refused to indict NY AG Letitia James in the Eastern District of Virginia — this time in Alexandria.

This is just a week after the DOJ tried and failed to secure a grand jury indictment in Norfolk.

Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."
