Americans are slow learners with very short attention spans.
Republicans wreck the economy and the Democrats come in and clean it up. Because the voters don’t think they are doing it fast enough, they throw them out.
This time, they may have wrecked Democracy.

As if being a decent human being wasn't enough for some people, there is a financial incentive as well.
Anderson Cooper: So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?
Answer: Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing… #HousingFirst

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

They carefully chose the most servile individuals for this entire administration. It is highly doubtful anyone has the guts to indict the 🍊💩 cult leader for treason. But if it does happen then all his cabinet goes with him.

Killing us is one way to silence us I suppose.
The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?
