Duffy is blaming Congress which is currently run by the GOP for not funding the FAA.
Can you imagine if Democrats did this? We’re not going to explain anything. What we are gonna do is call it an emergency, demand $50 BILLION and then give contracts to all of our buddies.
No explanation for what happened, no explanation for how things get fixed, but a plea for $$$$$$
Until there is a massive and public effort to undo DOGE, this administration should get zero benefit of the doubt whenever things fall apart. Which is happening more frequently.
WOW! These assholes! They remind me of every incompetent boss I’ve ever had—and their frustration with having to answer questions is bonkers! And the whining! It’s not our fault! A complete overhaul at one time! How would that work!? Rant over….😰

Y'all will eventually reckon with the fact that "woke" is a BLACK word stolen from BLACK people by WHITE SUPREMACIST FASCISTS to stigmatize BLACK PEOPLE and others deemed disposable and to dismantle pro-BLACK qua "progressive" policies IN THE WAKE OF THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT. The fucking end.
lmao so much of the shittiness of all of modern tech is because all of the guys running these companies are insecure little shitbirds

Just like a lot of pundits have internalized the idea that conservatives are the only real Americans, they have internalized the idea that right wing christianity is the only real American religious tradition
“A policy that was fair, effective at fighting climate change and even put money into most taxpayers’ pockets died because Canadians simply didn’t believe any of that,” researchers write. thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

We absolutely keep the trade talks and connections with other countries going! As well as the boycotts. They've changed momentum but as a friend on fb said, "Calm down. Only one day sober and the whiskey bottle is still on the counter. 12 steps will take some time." ✔️
Trump and his allies have hurt our future in a way that none of our enemies could have managed. And all of our enemies rejoice at this. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/31/s...
How Trump Is Dismantling America’s Scientific Research Machine
The system that has driven life-altering discoveries and helped make the United States a superpower is now under intense strain.

I've been using the term "asshole" a lot to describe the president and his most ardent supporters and it's meant to be descriptive. These are people who, at best, don't see others as real, and don't care how their actions affect them. They live between casual indifference and gleeful cruelty
Honestly it’s like he was grown in a vat to appeal specifically to me.
Abdul El-Sayed on bullies.
One thing that’s going to be annoying in the historicization of this moment is the idea that because the Trump regime failed to consolidate authoritarian control, that somehow means they must not have really been fascists. No. They were fascists and bad at it.
There has absolutely been a belief amongst the tycoons at the trillion-dollar companies that they were in endgame, and would never have to be concerned with public sentiment or accountability the rule of law ever again.
It sure seems like the AI tech bubble was predicated on a belief, both in the industry and in the market, that realizing it was dependent on permanent authoritarian rule.
Any time anyone says that we should move forward and let go of the past, I will repeat that THEY KILLED PEOPLE.

They think if they make us choose language that sounds cleaner and nicer that we'll capitulate. Don't use any new terms that make them sound like they're for people, like "compute campuses". They're not campuses. They're links the chain for totalitarian rule if they get their way.
The stink of desperation is intense.
FR though there’s a growing trend of folks getting offended by the fact our ancestors were enslaved. They seem to think it reflects poorly on them that their ancestors were victims. I think it reflects poorly on someone else’s ancestors to do the enslaving tbh
I love how PM Carney laughs at all of Trump’s BS 🤣🇨🇦👏
A friend quoted this, I started crying again immediately, and now you all have to see it too.
