When JPMorgan alerted the Trump administration to the existence of $1 billion in funds Epstein held which were clearly connected to child trafficking, Trump responded by suppressing the information. Why?

Goddard Space Flight Center is where the ozone hole and global warming were discovered, and they have the largest concentration of earth systems scientists. It’s not just planetary and astrophysics work.

And it’s being demolished.
NASA is sinking its flagship science center during the government shutdown — and may be breaking the law in the process, critics say

When you don't want the government to run, you install lackeys who don't know how to run the government.

So it turns out that handing control of the government to people who fundamentally don’t believe in government as a concept makes for poor governance

When it comes to murdering fishermen on the high seas, Donald is lawless and careless, but when it comes to finding excuses not to feed Americans, he's a precise bureaucrat, obsessed with following the law.

Notable that the people carrying Trumpism don't act like they believe they're carrying out the will of the public, they act like dictators terrified of a spontaneous uprising so swift and massive it overwhelms their protective services before assistance can arrive.

Trump bungled China policy so badly he had to run to Xi to beg forgiveness and surrender. Everyone knows it. In the "deal", America gets nothing, not even a return to status quo.

Trump has now totally abandoned his promise to "get tough" on China.

I don't know who all needs to hear this, but *do not vote to re-open the government.*

This is all in corrupt GOP hands right now. Don't take it out.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

Suzanne Nossel clearly has a fascist dog in this race.

80 years of soft power earned us that superpower status that trump destroyed this year. He made our enemies allies, and made our allies turn away from the U.S.

We will not in our lifetimes earn back our respect and esteem that he threw away.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

The Steady State @steadystatevets.bsky.social · 2d
When a president facing multiple court challenges over troop deployments claims “I’m allowed to do that” and “nobody would get involved,” it’s him signaling a plan to govern without checks and balances, not a display of confidence.

He's making sure he doesn't have to help defend our country's allies against putin.

Better for him to seize Venezuela's oil fields for a new grift.
