It's a crime to dispute the Nazi Holocaust in many places.

It should likewise be a crime to dispute the genocidal acts of the Israeli government against Palestinians.

This is happening with government funding across the board.
Trump is dead serious. See this chart from March:

I am sort of sympathetic to this argument that Ed Sheeran shouldn’t be the one taking all the heat here but in the end he chose to refer to the genocide as a conflict and he didn’t tell the stadium owners to FOITS www.instagram.com/p/DdXDo7BiFr...

The US National Science Foundation Directorate for Geosciences, which has funded most of my research over the past three decades, has been enshitified by Trump and his lackeys.

NSF has reduced the research budget for all atmospheric, ocean, and earth sciences by ~80%.

80%!

A lot of us will not be conducting new research or training new students for the foreseeable future.

Here we have a lady trying to feed a baby kitten. And here we have a guy trying to bludgeon the kitten to death with a brick. It is important that we get both people's thoughts on what should be done with the kitten.

For 33 years, McConnell has voted against family and medical leave for working Americans. Then he disappears from the Senate for 92 days and keeps collecting his full paycheck. Apparently, paid leave is only a problem when someone else gets it.

It’s insane that people in Congress are paid over $174K a year in taxpayer dollars whilst making millions of dollars from insider trading whilst getting 18 vacations a year as Americans all over the country struggle to pay for rent, gas and groceries.

Cutting off trade with our allies because they support our other allies?

What a fucking buffoon.

Are they not even trying to hide the cheating anymore?
They really are just openly trying to buy votes now. Trump says every adult American will get a $5,000 “Trump dividend”, but only if Republicans win both the House and Senate in November.

rump says every American adult could get $5,000 if Republicans keep Congress.

So apparently the 2026 campaign strategy is: Vote Republican, maybe get a check. 😂

That’s not governing. That’s political bait with a bow on it.
