Good for the them! Trying to figure out what goods the penguins have that Trump decided to slap tariffs against.
The penguins on the Heard and McDonald Islands announce they are putting 30% tariffs on US goods.

They are suited up and ready to go!
It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

This is horrible! Why attack the libraries? #saveourlibraries
AltLofC's thread here has a script to send your reps regarding the elimination of IMLS.

The ONLY reason to get rid of IMLS - which utilizes only .003% of the federal budget - is to erase knowledge & history. The regime is limiting access to this by harming our library systems, which many rely on.

The math was always bad. Trump and the GOP will have to take from the elderly and the poor to give the billionaires their tax cuts.

Why am I not surprised? Idiocy at it's worst.
Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social #Trump is destroying my 401k and retirement funds, while at the same time cutting the safety nets. Please get the @GOP to stop him before there is nothing left.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

Show the NFL you’re paying attention. Don’t watch the Super Bowl—make the ratings tank. Instead, listen on the radio. Money talks, and so do numbers. Stand against those who bend the knee to fascism. Tune out, speak up, and hit them where it counts. #BoycottNFL #TurnItOff #ListenDontWatch

One of the frustrating parts of having (and treating) #AGS is the broad range of potential triggers for anaphylaxis, and the changing nature of those reactions over time.
"Experts now recognize that in addition to being a food allergy, alpha-gal syndrome 'is a major drug allergy,' says Sharon Forsyth, a founder of the nonprofit Alpha-gal Alliance and an AGS patient."

Tick bites can trigger serious reactions to some medications
Alpha-gal syndrome is usually thought of as red meat allergy, but the tick-caused ailment can also spur allergies to mammalian-derived ingredients like gelatin.
