That includes Lady Liberty herself, soon to turn 250.

Telnaes toon of three ICE goons on the roof of a building, each wearing a vest with one letter spelling out ICE. They look down at Lady Liberty on her knees holding her head after they shoot her with a pepper bomb.

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do.

…getting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired.

…betraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator.

The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

Trumpcare, which means you get no care. It is just concepts of healthcare that will cost you more money, you will be blamed if you get sick, and you will be punished if you can’t pay.   Welcome to Trumpcare.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

This is what stupidity looks like

Analysts responsible for monitoring & protecting the US from biological, chemical & nuclear threats have been fired.

We are not ready for the next pandemic.

Also- a reminder that Trump hasn’t commented on shots fired at the CDC.

RIP #CDC

🧪 archive.today/sPlR4

Hundreds of CDC layoffs reversed, but biodefense preparedness staff hit

More than half of the roughly 1,300 CDC layoff notices have been rescinded, but workers at health agencies who work on biodefense and mental health still lost their jobs.

Let's be clear: If North Carolina Republicans gerrymander their already illegal map further, they will be sued and they will lose.

I never bluff and I usually win.

Anyone in the DMV that could help Mojo?

Due to my personal issues, I cannot keep her.

I'm selling everything and leaving.

She is very (mostly non verbal) well trained and the sweetest gal you'll ever meet.

Please I don't want to drop her at the shelter.

Love

War on California.
War on institutions.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.
