Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

I'm now waiting for Alec to put out a video on my crackpot idea of running steam humidifiers in conjunction with dehumidifiers to exceed the 100% heating efficiency of a resistive space heater.

Can you do another experiment this winter?

Congressional Democrats need to be seizing the moment to put forward strong legislation on prescription drug pricing.

Can we also get one of Trump’s fat billionaire friends to comment on the (lack of) cost of health insurance in other countries?

A lot of people are on to ethanol, but what's often missed is that we are using more than another 25M acres for soy biodiesel.
~45% of US corn production is now used to make ethanol, mostly for mixing into gasoline.

That's ~13% of all US crop land already used for energy production.

Using some of the same land for solar panels would capture 50-100 times more energy per acre.

Pathetic.

Putin isn't even on Truth Social but it'll get back to him, and he will just laugh his ass off. Just like the rest of the world is laughing at us right now.

Take notes, Democrats! This is how you stand up to fascists.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Meiselas: The public pressure was mounting. A 9-0 decision by the Supreme Court. Your voice matters. Senator Van Hollen showing up matters. The Trump regime can mock and post all the memes they want, but at the end of the day, the right result is finally starting to happen.

Reminder that the “evidence” given that he was a gang member was that he was wearing a Chicago Bulls hat and hoodie. This was never established in court and has been consistently denied under oath by Abrego Garcia and everyone in his circle.

This unverified falsehood is a heinous and evil lie.

Steve Kerr is a real one.
Steve Kerr: "I believe in academic freedom. I think it's crucial for all of our institutions to be able to handle their own business the way they want to. And they should not be shaken down and told what to teach, what to say, by our government. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard."
Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

On this day, April 14, 2025, the President of the United States openly defied the Supreme Court’s unanimous opinion of April 10, 2025, ordering him to “facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador

You know how we could know if he was a terrorist? If there was a trial in front of a judge, where evidence had to be presented to prove it. You know, like, what the Constitution requires.
In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: If you love freedom but don’t care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.

All those “Hunter Biden” people seem pretty upset when someone uses their proximity to power for personal gain.

I’m sure they’re absolutely FURIOUS about the obvious market manipulation and insider trading going on, that’s orders of magnitude worse than the Hunter accusations…

Right?

Obama would’ve been impeached and convicted the next day if he ever pulled something close to this.

For Trump, this is just a typical Wednesday.
I want to win in 2028 and then I want every single piece of shit who is profiting off the pain of average Americans to be sent to prison

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.
