Would someone happen to know if @joshhawleymo.bsky.social is related to the Hawley from the Smoot Hawley Tarrifs? You know the 6 degrees of separation and "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree"

No one voted for this.
There are no words for the disgust I feel for the Trump regime and the most unqualified HHS Secretary in history. This is not right! None of it!

My 98 yr old Dad had just gotten his hair cut in the hospital. I love this picture of him. Just had to post it. He is such a kind man. I want him to live forever. I am so thankful he (and my Mom) taught me to love everybody and that everyone was created equal.

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.
Congratulations Susan Crawford and the people of Wisconsin for saying no to being bought by Oligarchs.
Annnd CNN calls it
Today the people of Wisconsin said no to being bought by the oligarchy.

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.

Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

Trump called Marco Rubio "little Marco." If the shoe fits?
i'm stealing this from someone on twitter but the difference in body language here is due to the fact that both of these men are condemned to eternal damnation in the deepest circle of Hell but only Rubio realizes it

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.

I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Today's beatdown in the Oval Office was a turning point.

Every story has an arch. It's the path the narrative takes, and a turning point that critical moment where the plot takes a major shift that alters the course of the story.

Or, in this case, the course of history.
