New in PN: All the laws flouted during SignalGate
"There’s no excuse they can come up with that will be believable, bc the truth is obvious — they recklessly defied numerous laws by discussing war plans in a Signal group. And once they got caught, they made things even worse by incessantly lying."

@kaaauthor.bsky.social , thank you for being such a huge part of my formative teenage years. I now have a 5 year old son who started reading your Doggo and Pupper books, and I can't wait to see him grow up with the rest of your collected works

177 countries counted on US foreign aid prior to the current administration, many due to the WHO. Withdrawal is setting the world back decades.
Really important perspective from @gavinyamey.bsky.social and @boghuma.bsky.social
Withdrawal from the WHO harms both the US and the global community by severing a critical relationship that facilitates the timely exchange of expertise and promotes responses to emergent public health crises.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”
There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Vance goes on to spout Russian talking points to President country who was invaded by Russia. Zelenskyy is not the one disrespecting the Oval Office here.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Elon Musk has been attacking USAID — because USAID has been investigating Musk
Why? Because USAID paid for the Starlink units Musk claimed to give Ukraine in 2022 (!!!)
Some ended up with Russia — so USAID opened an inquiry
Meanwhile Musk started speaking to Putin in late 2022

This is an issue with a lot of the democratic mentality, the thought that they can reason and have a conversation with the MAGA cult. In their eyes, they are always right, and we need to accept it as such and move on rather than wasting time and energy arguing with them.
