Just leave the WIPP site untended, what could go wrong?
Salt caves 2000 feet underground in New Mexico hold the radioactive nuclear waste from US defense projects. It's the world's only deep geologic repository.
And DOGE says it has terminated the very large office in Carlsbad that oversees it. Details 👇

I think Americans have to understand things won't go back to normal and no one is coming to save us. The self destructive decision to vote for Trump is going to cause long term pain, damage and weakness. We have to survive and try to rebuild something better. Generational effort sadly.

I'd like to see more writing on how the Musk/Trump junta feels like a frontal attack on the entire concept of virtue, in even the most traditional senses.
They are actively demonizing and punishing everyone who doesn't worship Mammon.

@lujan.senate.gov Geezus, Senator, why did you vote to confirm a climate denier to be Sec of Energy and a supporter of Trump's coup to be Sec of the VA? (Collins is also completely out of his league in that job.) Vets in NM are gonna be pissed.

This is what we mean when we talk about corporate greed: Starbucks gave its CEO $96 million for just 4 months of work. Meanwhile, Starbucks is refusing to offer a raise of more than 50 cents an hour to 12,000 union workers.
That's unacceptable. Starbucks must end their greed.

Early this morning, President Trump posted a Truth post failing against Bishop Mariann Budde who preached to him yesterday, calling her a “so-called bishop” and insisting she and the Washington National Cathedral apologize.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.
