Another $20 billion. That is the face you make when you heist the US taxpayers for $40 billion two weeks before your midterm elections from the most corrupt America Last regime in history.

I know it's not much, but I am sure holding all the CDC and other "furlough" or rif'd federal employees in my heart. I am thankful for y'all.

"We are considering terminating business with China having to do with Cooking Oil" is an all-timer. Thank you Mr President, we appreciate your insights.

@realDonaldTrump

I believe that China purposefully not buying our Soybeans, and causing difficulty for our Soybean Farmers, is an Economically Hostile Act. We are considering terminating business with China having to do with Cooking Oil, and other elements of Trade, as retribution. As an example, we can easily produce Cooking Oil ourselves, we don’t need to purchase it from China.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

Is that accurate? I thought her vote simply forces a floor vote on whether to release the files, not the actual release of the files. Even if they finally seat her, it's still a fight.

A car trapped in traffic by ice. The parents forced to grab their infant in a car seat and flee on foot, to escape the bombardment of gas that envelops their stopped vehicle. This cannot continue on US streets, in US neighborhoods. I hope they're okay.

I have no respect or sympathy for her, but I am also furious at the double standard. She lost her position, as she should, but RFKj suffered zero consequences and was elevated to the head of HHS. And he was the married participant in the affair. They're both gross and should be unemployed.

I think it is useful still, although not so broadly as before, as the current administration seems to see no future where this could "happen to them". But for the handful of rational pols like the Gov of OK it resonates, and that still matters. State and local leaders are more receptive/vulnerable.

D'Angelo did such beautiful work, and lovely collaborations. I'm so sorry that he passed away at such a young age. There is promising work being done with mRNA vaccines and pancreatic cancer, and I hope that we can move this vital research forward.

What about ramming a vehicle in a fit of pique, saying "do something bitch", and then shooting a woman five times and leaving her there to drive herself to a fire station for aid in Chicago? And then putting out a statement that was a ball of lies? Was that too far?

An abomination. The United States is simply committing random murders without consequences.

George Conway 🇺🇸🚫👑🐸 @gtconway.bsky.social · 1d

That's twenty-seven flat-out murders. That's twenty-seven lives taken without even a semblance of a legal justification under domestic or international law.
