Trump vows to shakedown more businesses while he has the authority, and warns companies against publishing the truth about tariffs, citing Amazon as an example.

It is astonishing how many people are okay with this unbelievable abuse of the office.

From @nytimes.com: RFK Jr. downplays vaccines during a major #measles outbreak. Experts like @jennifernuzzo.bsky.social warn: it sends the wrong message.

“We do not want to send a signal that we do not need to be vaccinated because we have a way to get rid of it.”

Trump threatened to starve Maine’s kids over a trans athlete ban.
Governor Mills said: “We’ll see you in court.”
And she won.
This wasn’t about sports—it was political blackmail.
They held food hostage to force ideology.
This is the system breaking itself.

I'd rather we used the millions to provide healthcare to those retired from the military than to force those still in the military to goosestep in Donald's vanity birthday parade.

Trump has been president for 100 days—and he’s made a deliberate attempt to flood the system and exhaust the public.

It can be hard for most people to keep up. That's by design.

As a candidate, Trump said he'd lower prices. As president, here's what he's done 🧵

I don't think it's all that curious. The triangle is a common shape in nature (trees, mountains, etc) and one of the first shapes humans learn to draw in 3D. Makes sense they would build them too. As far as timing, I think the "Cool S" speaks to how something can be everywhere at the same time lol.
