The president of the United States is threatening to strip the citizenship away from an American who says things he does not like.
And our media will invariably present this not as a major crisis, an impeachable offense that must lead to his immediate removal, but as “a spat” between Don & Rosie

How many times did we fucking tell you. You gave up on wearing masks. You let them demonize masks. So they got to write the rules. And the rules are cops “discretion” is that disabled people should be arrested. Because when ableds get to decide who is actually disabled, we lose. Every time.

We have a majority of the country agreeing that the American president "is a dangerous dictator."
If only there had been warning signs before the election... 😐

While a majority (52%) of Americans agree that “President Trump is a dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy,” 55% of those who voted for Trump in 2024 and regret their decision agree that Trump is a dangerous dictator whose power should be limited.

REPORTER: Amazon will soon display a number next to the price of each product that shows how much the Trump tariffs are adding. Isn't that a perfect demonstration that it's the American consumer who is paying for these policies?
LEAVITT: This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.

I was enjoying this beautiful sunset at the Albany Shorefront & it fully, deeply hit me that I don't have chemotherapy tomorrow. Gods willing, I won't ever have it again.
I'm so so grateful.

Last chemo was last week. I'm not officially cancer free until the PET scan results in another couple weeks, but gods willing, the hard part is over.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%.
I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters.
